Another .mtasnk e,, BY mr.. Elw

Mr.. Elwood, tina Democratic candidate for
Attorney General, in his great speech, print
cd in the Herald and scattered oil over the
country, accuses ex Gov. Grimes Of favorinc
and signing the bill by which the members
Of the Legislature we're paid 800 each for
their attendance at the extra session. We
do not say that Air Elwood, who is now in
this city, makes this statement with design
30 mislead and deceive the people, for We I'm.
derstand that he has promised to correct il
in any further speeches he might make. But
| Il h6does intend to be open and manly let
him make. the correction in the same place
where tho mis-statement itself apneared--
I that is in the columns Of the Herald. The
truth OF the matter, ~ Mr.. Elwood himself
now knows, 10 that the appropriation Of 500
to each member never was passed in the
shape OK an act, but in q concurrent resolu-
| ton, which does not tequire the assent OF
the Governor; that Gov. Grimes was opposed
to the appropriation, and that he urged Mr..
/ samuels OF this city to get the thing into the
shape Of an act, 20 that he could veto it that
the Republican Auditor, MIR. Pattee, refused
TO audit the bill, and that the Legislature
were finally obliged to pass concurrent res
| oiutlon directing the Treasurer 10 paw the bill
without submitting il to the Auditor. MIR.
Elwood now knows eli these facts--let us see
It he has the honor 70 acknowledge that he
was wrong.
And besides this let the people remember
that oil the other charges made by Mr.. Ell
wood are just ~ false as this one against
Cow airimcs, and that they have been proved
! 80 be so.--lDubuque Times.

It appears that an Injunesion has been
granted by Judge Lova, which enjoins the
Bridge Company from making repairs which
at present are very much needed at the
bridge, and which II not made will sooner
or later be the cause of another OF those

inquisitive will ere long begin TO inquire into
