We call the special attention of the
Wings throughout the State to the impor-
lance Of having the names of our candi-
dates correctly printed. We have re-
ce'ved letters and papers from various
parts OF the State, containing the name of
Allison. Some have it William Allison.
some William L. Allison, and others Will
liam II. Allison; none of which are cor
rect. His name is WILLIAM NJ. AL
LlSON. 1t is important to have this
matter corrected in time we do not wish
again to be Cutlerized. The names ofthe
Wing candidates for the Board of Public
Works, as published in our paper, are.
we believe strictly correct Iowa Re-

/ Recommendation by the President Of the
United States.
At q season when the Providence Of God has
manifested itself in the visitation Of fearful pest
lence which spreading its ravages throughout the
land, It is fitting that people whose reliance has
ever been on his protection, should humble them
selves before His throne; and while acknowledging
past transgressions ask continuance ofthe Divine
Mercy.
It Is therefore earnestly recommended that the
nrst Fridsy in August be observed throughout the
United States as day of fasting, humiliation and
prayer. All business will be suspended in the va
rious branches ofthe public service on that day !;
and it is recommended to persons Of all religious
denominations, to abstain, far practicable, from
secular occupation, and to assemble in their respec
tive places of Public Worship, to acknowledge the
infinite goodness which has watched over our ex-
istence as = nation, and so long crowned US with
manifold blessings, and to implore the Almighty, in
his own good time, to stay the destroying hand
which is now lifted up against us.

The Cenventiou.

Pursuant to the call for meeting to produce har-
n,ony and cancellation among the friends Of reform,
large number Of the Freemen of Des Moines-prob-
ably two hundred-assembled from town and the
country precincts on Saturday last. Mr. Hollings-
worth was called to the chair, and after some pre-
limnaiy discussion as to the mode Of voting, they
proceeded to ballot for candidates for the offices Of
Recorder, &C., Sheriff and County Commissioners
for this district and the southern district.
On the final ballot, Mr. William Sunderland receiv-
ed majority Of oil the votes for the office Of Col
lector, Treasurer and Recorder; Richard Noble, re-
ceved the majority Of votes for Sheriff, and Calvin
Carnage, was nominated for County Commissioner
in the Sonth district, and H. b. Ware, Commission
er in place of w. F. Coolbaugh, resigned.
The convention also confirmed the previous NOM
ination OF Mr. I. B. Crocker for Prosecutor Of the
county, and then adjourned.
The object Of the meeting was to ill the vacancy
occasioned by the declination Of Major Bowie as
sherih-of Lyman Cook as County Commissioners and
to reconcile conflicting claims for the office OF Col
lector, SC.
Our friend Col. Letter, was not nominated Collec-
tor, &C., because it was supposed some other per-
son would better concentrate the vote Of the friends
Of reform and Mr. VIM. Sunderland, was chosen in
his place. This selection, as also that of Richard
Noble for Sheriff, we approve-knowing them to
possess the qualifications and to be acceptable to
the people of all parties. They not trained and
fed for candidates. but come fresh from the people
ready to do their behests and to fulfil the expec
tations Of the county.
The ticket then stands as Follows:
For SheriE-Richard Noble.
For oliecsor, Treasurer and Reeordev-William
Sunderland.
For Judge Of Probatc-John Mcclure.
For County Conmissioners-In the South district,
C. Carnage, and H. b. Ware, in place of Coolbaugh.
For overwhelmingly D. Croker.
For Commissioners Clerks. D. Colburn.
For County Surveyor-Oliver Hall.
For Coroner--Joseph Beyles.
The above is a reform ticket. 1t proposes to-
tai rout of the old whip and drill system of the petty
politicians, who caucused the loco foco ticket
and, for the purpose Of giving it consequence and
pulling the wool over the eyes Of the simple, put
it the names Of some respectable men.
Nothing will do for our county, in the miserable
state of its finances, but REFORM Let us, then, of
all parties, unite and show to the county and the
world, that though we love our parties and party
friends, we love our country, State, county
and their respective interests more.
Friends Of Reform, walk up to the polls-bring
your friends-sick and welt. Emancipate your
selves from party inauences-and let US redeem
our great and glorious county from the effects Of
Encouragement and misrule and restore her credit
and secure her future prosperity.

Letter From California.

The Salem Register publishes letter ftom|
gentleman in San Francisco, to his brother inI
Marbehead, dated March 6, 1910, which is aft
ter the style and manner of the first accounts
from the gold regions The writer had heard of
the gold at Valparaiso, which place he left, anS
had been at San Francisco mnath. He had
not been at the diggings, the weather having
been uncommonly severe, as well as protracted.aI
but every one who had visited them had re-
turned "with little competency, many getting
from $50 to to 5000 daily" His regret was,
that lie could not send piece of gold for his
brothers satisfaction, but he hoped to do SO be-
fore long. He says also" the gold is the least
part of the affair; the country is immensely rich
in silver and quicksilver mines, and its capabil-
tiles for agriculture magnificent. In the interi-
or it is very mild, and the soil is exceedingly
rich and productive. 1t abounds with deer, elk,
antelopes, wild horses geese, canvass back ducks
and in fact, game of all descriptions.
The opportunities for trade, according to this
most sanguine and veracious writer, are magnif-
lcent. "People are making 100 to 500 per cent
on Valparaiso prices" upon all articles of neces-
slty, convenience and luxury from frames of
houses down to raisns and walnuts, and " Cham
payne flows like water to the tune of 81 bot
tle" He says the gold is inexhaustble, or can.
not give out in hundred years, and therefore
all who believe his statements have plenty of
time to take advantage of them.
The statements of the above writer are borne
out by several letters of same date. One Of
them says
