Facts against Lecomptonitc Lihel.

IL IS u JHft tndL Tug lusdHs Asylum Is
planned and built and moneys expended
under mixed commission partly Demo-
critic and partly Republican, and that it
has never yet been deflcd by being made
a party measure. The chief advocate of
the appropriation was Allen, Democratic
Senator from keokuk; and one of its
warmest supporters, who voted against
reducing the amount, and voted for the
full sum Of 100000, and sustained the
bill all the time, was H. H. 7rimble, De-
mocratc candidate for Congress from
this District. All the dirt now flung on
this subject by the man who panies
Trimble to do the discrcditable work of
the campaign, flies into the face of
the leading Democrats of the State of
Iowa. H e..l-#.aa.
Ii is q fart, that the Lecomptonitc
falsehoods about Morris defalcations in
the State Treasury have gone under,
buried out of sight, by the lately pub
lished truth that every dollar is fully ac
counted for--not cent lost to the State
not a penny hidden from view; and
that about 100000 of Bonds guard the
State against any possible loss Of revenue,
or School fund, through the hands of
Mr.. Morris, who has been twice honored
and backed by the Democratic voters of
this State as a guaranty Of his honesty
ard good character.
IL isa tact, that the Democratic leader
in the House, Mr.. Clark of Dubuque,
proposed to raise the rate of interest on
our late Revenue loan to ten per cent,
declaring that Iowa credit was not good
enough to get par for her Bonds at seven
per cent interest and that Republicans
refused to allow it, kept the rate at seven
per cent, and through a Republican
offer got par for every bollar Of Bonds.
II is a fact, that the Republican Leg
islature retrenched about $4,000 Of reg
ular jobbing appropriations for Assess
ors' Blanks, which was established
By the reckless administration Of Demo
Gratis.
Htsa fact, that the last Republican
General Assembly rctrcnched aboat $50,
600 ayear Of cztravagant allowances out
Of the School, Fund, which was another
legacy left b. the same reckless Demo
cratic administration, and up to this
time under their control through their
Superintendent of public instruction.
IL is u |uct, which no amount of lying
can -contrcvert, that the Republican al.
ministrat;on has reduced the State taxes
this year by many thousands OF dollars,
and reduced it ia all the counties but 9,
and in these 8 the total increase is only
s1,756 II, or about sl75 by average, to
each of the Q counties, and in the most
of these the increase is occasioncd by the
increase of taxable property, SO that the
tax falls lighter than last year on each tax
payer, in proportion to his property
The general decrease amounting to near
300, 900, the particular inc. ease amount
ing to about 81 700.
II Is Il fact, that tie Republican gov
eminent have ferreted out Democratic
School Fund deialcations in State and
County officers to the amount Of many
thousand dollars, large part Of which
will be saved to the people Of the State BY
Republican vigilance.
1t is fact, h,at Of Oh the Democrats
and Republicans IN he SENATE Of Io'eu,
only tro roted against the Approprmti1n
BIZ Of The last Generai ISscaaLig; fact
that permanently seals the mouths of
these Lecomp.ohite libellers, and estab-
fishes the justice and propriety Of those
appropriations, to dollar.
II is Il tact, that the Republican State
ticket with faithful Elijah Sells, aud hon
est Jonathan Catteil at its head is per-
petual pledge Of faithfulness and honesty
towards the peoples rights, aud the PEG
ples's treasury; and its further fact that
the people mean to elect this ticket by a
crushing majority in October. -lowa
