consistency tnvu lrt.sl Jewel ~,
Our very consistent and honorable cotempo-
rary of the Gazette has leader of column
yes, a mortal column, devoted to the abuse OF
Governor Grimes and Treasurer Morris. This is
all the expose he has to give of the Eids defai
cation. He cannot be coaxed, hired, driven or
ridiculed into publishing the report Of this Leg
islative committee. Why not. Because it is
signed by Republicans and Democrats and de-
monstrates, first, That the accounts OF Mr.. Nor
| rls State Treasurer, are all rishr, and SECOND,
| That DIR. Eads has scattered our large schoo
| fund to the four winds-!cnt it out for five
| years much of it to political fayorites, while
| Ia ho Il,
| for.
The reason why the Gazette does not repub-
lish this report is two-iold. 1t is very clear that
had they repnblshcdit, the guilt Of Dr. Etds
| and the innocence of Mr. Morris would both
! have been proven out of the mouths of the Ga
ze,te's own political friends whose names are at
tached TO the report, and there would have been
Noting to base its senseless trade Of abuse OF
Governor Grimes upon. The community can
therefore readily sec why this document is sup
pressed. sst243 80 -s''A'
The citizens Of Dcs Moines who wish TO cover
| up the defalcttion of Dr.. Eads-who wish 10
have the five per cent school fund Of Iowa used
IN land pecniations-loaned to irresponsible
newspaper publishers as corruption fund,
should byall means vote for Wightnan, Tracy
and the other Pro- Slavery nominees They will
undoubtedly be as ready to cover up and con.
eeHl the theft as their organ Is to conceal the
evidence OF its existence. But if YOU wisi, this
matter probed--h you wish thorough EXPOSE
ton and the speedy restoration of the money
SO far as it can be done TO its legitimate
uses, the education of the children Of the State
you will cas-: yo'IT votes for Messrs. Cook, VIII
1ams, Perry and Rand, This is the only attain
able remedy for the wrong that has been conf
mitted. .,s- ..,=... - g. .s- E.;.i. gazsa +.
