j. Teesdale, Of the Iowa City Republican,
n gentleman with the mud OF Ohio fresh on
his boots, has been nominated for State
Printer by the Republican caucus. as we see
by his paper of the 9;h. The principal plea
was that the State Printing was needed to
support his paper, which couldn't sustain
itself without. We suppose the caucus con-
sidered his plea sufficient, and the favor mer-
tied by h $ active and long continued servi-

toll, toll that has created and established
the prevailing sentiment Of the StRtc,-were

rate talent and no valid claim to party favor.
Perhaps that is the way to huild no and
strengthen party. And perhaps not.
