ply because they are Republican candi-
dates, nor have we ever sent forth bill.
ingsgate or tish market slang against
their opponents. only because they are
democrats, ana have ever held to the
principle OF doing justice to all men,
The April election is now at hand, a,
which time some important state offices
are to be filed by the people at the bal.
lot box.
Two sets of candidates are before the
people and from them the choice vii! be
made.
The two candidates for the office OF
Commissioner of the Des NONE In.
provements are Edward Manning the
Repul lcan, and Gideon S. Bailey the
Democrat. OF these two men we know
nothing save as 10 their political differ
ence: one being in favor OF making lib
erty national, aud the other an enderser
cf the Kansas iniqul,ies.
For Register OF the State Land Office,
is w. H. Holmes the republican, and
Theodore S. Parvin Democrat.
Of Mr.. Holmes we have some knowl-
edge as he has been prominent man in
this State for sometime past. He is a
staunch advocate Of national freedom, a
man of ability, integrity and talent; a
man OF good business capacity and capa-
bic OF filling any Office
Mr.. Parvin is equally an es,mable
man, respected and honored by all who
know him, and possesses business tai.
ent which will qualify him 10 fill any Of
fee. With Mr.. Parvin we have long
been acquainted, and have lsng regretted
his rank political opposition to free prin-
ciples. Were i, not Tor his political SEN
timents we could cheerialIy vote for him,
aud give him our influence, bu, yet are
willing 10 DO him justice as an es,imabe
man.
But the most important office of all is
that Of Superintendent OF Public Instruc-
ton. This Office has charge of the School
Fund OF the State, and from pas, expert
ence we should carefully guard tha, fund
IN future, as the present officer, DR..
Eads has squandered the fund TO the in T..
jury OF our common Schools. The two
candidates for this office are Mr.. Bugbee,
Republican, and Mr.. Fisher, Democrat.
With MIR. Bugbee We have no personal
acquaintance, aud such knowledge As we
have Of him has been obtained through
old line Democrats. His Democratic
Trends in Linn, speak Of him as an esti.
mable man, worthy OF all confidence tina,
he has the ability md ,alen, to fill any
office with honor and his integrity should
commend him TO the favor OF the people.
His opponent Mr.. Fisher is not of the
same sort" Mr.. Fisher has long been
one Of the leading tugtemen OF the demo-
cratic party, and been the manager OF
one division OF the political wires. He
was a, one time President of the Senate.
and while in that post he took par, in the
infamous action Of the Senate by which
they endeavored TO prevent an election Of
our [. S. Senator. In this he took an
active part and showed zeal in his la.
bors TO thwart the people, and have Iowa
unrepreseuted IN the Senate He was &C
ting in that capacity when bill was pas
sed to prevent the Superintendent Of
Public instruction, from loanin2 the School
Fund. The bill passed and would have
become law, were it not for some OF
the official legerdemain Of Mr.. Fisher,
10y which the bill failed, and the school
land sustained great loss IN consequence
He now is the candidate for successor to
the corrupt official now in office, while
lie has aided to delraud the pc opIe. -
such is the choice for this important of.
ice-a republican whom the democrats
acknowledged man of ability. talent,
and Integrity, and democrat who is
anc'ured with partizan corruption.
We give our views thus plainly as 10
he men, bat it IS FOR the people to choose
bur we have our abiding confidence in
the discriminating integrity OF The people,
lh't they will choose good men and true,
aud such as favor the rights of states
and the rights OF men and discountenance
ne p'opasandlssn Of slavery, and slavery
Intag.ies.
