The county meeting of Thursday last, altho'
not large was anticipated, was respecta
bic in numbers, and went off very satisfactorily.
George H. Williams, one of the democratic elcc.
tors for the State at large, addressed the peo-
pie with great force and effect, discussing the
various topics of the present campaign with
the clcarncss and ability which have distn-
gnshed him, and made him the most popular
speaker in southern Iowa. His vindcaton of
the candidates, principl and measures Of the
democratic party was triumphant,and received
with the most hearty and enthusiastic respon-
ses Of our whole hearted democracy.
The Democratic Association met in the base
mcnt Of the State House in the evening and
were entertained for more than two hours by
another speech from Judge Williams, in which
he went more at length into the discussion of
the position Of the parties in relation 20 the
question of internal Improvements and river
and harbor improvements than he did in the
afternoon. lie showed the whig party had
been the real enemy of river and harbor improve
ments of national charactcr,by loading dowr
appropriations TO the harbors on the Great
Lakes, Of real utility, and to the Mississippi
ard all her great navigablc tributaries, by APP
propriations to such little. contemplate, wet

who are tenacious Of strict construction Of

plnudering sy sassA - 49,
cicnt federalism and modern Wig
delight, aud in favor Of making every appfo-
pr.ation stand on it's own merits by voting ON
each as a separate Independent proposition.
He went very fully into the conduct Of the
wings on The religious test question. and com
men,ed severely on those who were instrument
ial in draygng;religion from the sacredal'crto
make it minister to the vilest partisan purpo-
ses. He pointed out the direful consequences
that might be apprchended by arraying, even
in tbs country, these two great divisions OF
Cbristcndom against each other. He showed
that the party which is now attempting to ex-
cite the Catholic against the democratic candi
date for President, made similar appeals to the
prriudices of Professionals IN lelO, because Mr.
Va. Buren, had treated the POI as a temporal
prince IN the conventional language OF d'plo'
macy. Then these row and special friends OF
the Catholics sounded the alarm. warning the
country against the Jesni'sm and fopish IN
fuences of Mr. Van Bnren's administration.
Judge Williams handled every subject on
which he touched in The proper spirit. and
with very great ability. At The close Of his re.
marks the meeting adjourned with hearty cheers
for Mr.. Williams and the democratic nominees.

CONVERSATIONAL TALENT OR AccoMpr ,su~r~-.
Funny L-Education has little TO do with
conversational talent or Accomplishments: to
converse, well you must acquaint yourself with
the SUBJECTS OF conversation. If you live in
nigh life, you must have the gossip of the
Court and the saloons and the operas. In
middle life little less is neccs sary Of that
description ,and general knowledge comes more
IN demand. But knowledge alone is ut suf.
he'ent' 1t is Imagination that conqueres, and
that only requires good knowledge of language
to make IT shine anywhere. The most trifinp
commonplace things are the most fire ouent

useful and instructive well as chit. chat CON.
Ver'ation, you must acquire some knowledge
OF the world by books of travel and live.
OF distinguished characters. A circulating Ii.
brary of novels is library of ignorance: for az.
ter years you have learned nothing. Your Ii.
orary shoud contain something else--some.
thing that leaves an idea behind il. If wo,nan
read such books as men read. they would s.
more intelligent than men for they read more:

Astonishing as it is--surprising as it must
seem even 10 the friends of protection in the
east, it is nevertheless true that the wings of
Iowa. in violation Of the doctrine laid down in
their own platform at the Baltimore Convcn.
ton. are making protection for the sake of pro-
lection prominent issue of this campaign.
Almost every issue in their leading organs
makes protection the theme of the longest win
ded editorials Their electors and sub electors,
their township aud school district orators, are
spending a great deal of misunderstanding
their logic and lore to prove that the tariff Of
1916 is bringing the country to the brink Of
ruin. That our western farmers who arc pay.
ing an average tax of 80 per cent on all the
manufactured goods they consume, will Ger.
,ainly be ruined, not because they pay that
amount but because they are not compelled to
pay more. The eastern manufacturers, such as
the Lawrenccs and the Appletons-whose an
nual income each is over hundred til ousanG
dollars, and who are now making additional
investments of millions, cannot possibly stand
it at these ruinous rates They must have
more protection and larger profits, or they will
not be able to live in the splendor and luxury
Of the first class Of English nobility. whose
revenues are swollen by the corn laws and 9TH
or government protection until the laborer and
tax payer are ground down to the last penny
