'OUR Ticket.

OUR TICKET.
At the head of our columns
this week may be foundthe ticket
put in nomination by our state
convention, with the exception of
candidate for the supreme bench.
This ticket we regard as the least
cxceptionable of any that has
been presented by the Democracy
of Iowa for the suffrages of the
people Resides the northern
section of the state has been con-
suited, as it should have been in
years past, while every section is
properly represented in the selec-
ton of candidates. While the
candidates are each and every one
unexceptionable as men, their
great merit, lies in the fact, that
they are the represen tatives of the
principles of the democratic party
as foreshadowed in the resolutions
of the national democratic con-
vention at Baltimore, and as APP
proved and endorsed by the dem
ocratic State convention, at Des
Moines. The resolutions of the
convention are admirable, and we
believe utter the real sentiments
Of all conservative men in the
state of Iowa. We regret that
Judge Grant should decline the
use Of his name for the supreme
bench, for he is one of the ablest
aud best men in the State for the
position. He was our first choice.
J. NJ. Elwood is our next, and
we hope to see the state central
committee place his name upon
the ticket. We believe not only
he, but that our entire ticket can
b. md will be triumphantly sus.
taiAed before the people if the
democracy exert themselves to
that end. We shall give the re.
solutions adoptcd, in our next.

MAD DOGS.
The people Of this place held a meet
ing one evening this week, at which
they resolved to exterminate everything
of the canine species, found running at
large and unmuzzled after this week.
Those owning valuable dogs, will do
we'll to take heed and leave all such at
home on coming to town, or have them
securely muzzled. The great number
Of rabid animals in counties adjoining
US, makes this step necessary.

OREGON ELECTION.

OREGON ELECTION.
Notwithstanding the noise and clamor
Of our Republican friends over the re.
suit Of the Oregon election, it turns out
that the Democracy have swept every.
thing there, as we anticipated. Scarce.

have that State overwhelmingly repub

it as the first gun Of the campaign.-
Very well, it is; and its vote now is only

We go further, and assert that,
but for the opposition of the dem

have had the real, while the

An enthusiastic orator of the Lin
coin persuasion, was lately expatiating
upon the merits Of" Old Abe" as a fiat
boatman. Among other exploits he re-
lated that Old Abe was engaged in nav
igating flat, when 1t grounded on q
sandbar, and as it was pretty we'll filed
with water, in order to tighten up, (be-
ing probably too lazy to bail nthe usual
way, he bored hole in the bottom Of
the boat to let the water out! Ofcourse
the rush of water in, instead of out, soon
settled the craft. "Old Abe" was no
doubt much astonished at the result of
his labor saving ingenuity as was the
simple darkey, who, IN saving a limb
from a tree, got out on the limb, and
sawed between himself and the tree,
only awakening to sense of his blum
der when he "felt somefn drap."
If he should be 40 fortunate as to be
President, he will be very apt to settle
the Union as he did the Aatboat; by
sinking it.-DEM. e. News.

determined to force upon us the
issue of Administration Democra-
cy, even after nearly the whole
Democratic party of the North,
and a very large portion of it in
the South, have repudiated the
doctrines of the present admins
tratien, and refused to nominate
a candidate for President, on the
platform of principles protested by
them, but, on the contrary have
placed in nomination Stephen
A. Douglas, with platform as
broad as the Union; conservative
in principle, and in fact the only
one, advocating the doctrine on
which alone, Republican form
of Government can be preserved,
(that of allowing the voice of the
majority to be the supreme law of
the land, subject at all times to
the ConstitutionO Republicans
will claim that we as a party are
in favor of the extension of slav-
cry by the Intervention Of Con-
gress and exclaim: Bleeding Kan
sas! Lecompton Constitution! &c.
Even in Iowa the Republicans
accuse the Democracy of all the
sins, committed by the administra-
ton, and that too when not one
paper in the State, advocates the
doctrine, against which they are
making such mighty efforts.
Republicans are always ready
and anxious, to deny having any
feeling in common with that class
of fanatics known as Abolitionists,
we leave it to the decision of cam
did men, if we have not more rea-
son for charging them with Abol-
istionism, than they have for ac-
cusing us of wishing to extend
slavery; let us examine for a mo-
ment A book is written by a
professed republican, Helper in
which we find the following pas
sages:
"No man csn be true patriot, without
first becoming an Aboliticnist.' 'Not to be
an Abolitionist, is to be willful and diaboli-
cal instrument of the devilw awe enter our
protest against slavery, and deem it'eur duty
to use our most strenuous efforts to overturn
and abolish it " " we are not only in favor
of keeping it out of the Territories, but un-
hes,tatingly declare in favor of its immediate
and unconditional abolition, in every State in
the confederacy, where 1t now exists" awe
are welded to one purpose from which no
earthly power can divorce us; we are deter
mined to abolish slavery at all hazards! !"
Sixty-eight members of Con-
gress, besides a number of others,
all leading and Representative
men of the republican party,
headed by their oracle, (Wm. H.
Seward certify that they believe
the principles set forth in this
book are sound and good. Now
we think that if, with this testi-
mony against them, and testimony
too, of men who have not been
repudiated; for they support to-
day the very men who have certi-
fed over their signatures that they
believed this to be sound doctrine,
they claim that we have no right
to charge them with abolitionist
proclivities, no right to say that
they sanction this doctrine, how
much less should they accuse us
of. and lay at our door, the sins

PRESIDENTS PROTEST.

PRESIDENTS PROTEST.
We refer to this question at this
time, not because our former arti-
Gle upon this subject was misun-
derstood by our readers, but be-
cause our neighbor of the North
Iowan, we will not Say willtully,
but through ignorance of the i'm.
port of language, does not cempre-
kend our position. That an ar
ticle the meaning of which every
reader of the Plaindealer can fully
understand, is entirely miscon-
strued by one Of the leading and
most influential papers of Mitchell
county, seems, to us, the climax
of ohtusencss. For the benefit of
the lo,cam we re-state our position.
1t is this: that the Constitution
Of the U. S. nowhere gives the
House of Representatives the
right to censure the President, by
an &c parte trial and vote of Gen.
sure, that this is the first time in
the history Of our government,
that any party, has been driven to
such an extremity as to resort to
this course, and that the action of
the House in this matter, was as
violent and unwarrantaMe an as
sumption of power, as would have
been a vote of censure upon the
Governor Of Iowa or of any other
state in the Union. We have
never held that the House of Rep
resentatves may not fully mvesti-
gate the affairs of the government,
but, if the object be to impeach
the President. that he is to be
tried by the U. S. Senate, presided
over by the Chief Justice, and
that he at least should have as
much right to fair and impair
tial trial, as the law warrants to
the basest culprit in the land.
REPUBLICANS AND THE HOME
STEAD.
The Republican press of the
northwest take it very hard, that
the record of Hannibal Hamlin,
upon the Homestead bill, shows
continued and persistent hostility
to the measure, from its inception
to the present time.
A late number of the DEBORAH
Republic, in commenting upon
the vote of MI. Hamlin upon the
bill, says, "we honor him for it,"
giving as a reason, the amend
ments appended to the bill in the
Senate. Will the Republic in
form us what there was in the
bill of 1854, that Mr.. Hamlin
should vote against it and why
he should vote for the resolution
of postponement in 1853, knowing
as he did, that such vote was vir-
tually killing the bill, if he was
in favor Of the measure? 1t won't
do to urge the reason assigned by
the Republic, as the ground of
hostility. The zeal of that paper
like that of the entire party, is too
new born to inspire the people
with much confidence in their
sincerity. All those now compos-
ing the leaders in Republicanism,
were the early and earnest advo-
Gates of holding the public lands
at two dollars per acre, and, of

Homestead Bill which recently passed
Congress He gives his reasons, seria-
iia, for his disapprovui Of the bill. The
following is a synopsis oi his message
as given by the New Orleans Picayunc
His first is u constitutional objection
to the power Of Congress To- give away
the public lands to states or individuals
The second objects 10 it's unequal opera
advantages 10 late settlers az 10 the
original pioneers WIN first settled the
country when wilderness The third
complains of the injustice Ia the old
soldiers who have received land warrants
for services. tie value OF which is dcprc.
ciaiod by this Legislation. The fourth
objects TO the partial operation of the
act, IN comforting benefits on the agri-
cultural class alone, out of the common
property of the Union The fifth rcprovcs
i, as unjust To the old States, who are
deprived Of their fair interest in the pro.
cecds Of land sales as part IT the re
sources of the treasury The sixth re.
proves the chances for huge spccula,iops
which the bill creates
The seventh notes an inconsruiiy in
the bill, by which citizens n,ust be heads
Of families, to cntitle them to the benc-
fits Of the bill, while there is no such re-
striction on Foreigners The President
inds ianlt, too, with the discrimination
in favor Of persons who now have
presumption rights, who are INDUCED
with reduction Of price 10 624 cents
per acre, anG two years credit thereon,
which MS future pre-cmptance is 10 have.

loss Of * 00O, 600 on a scanty rcvenue.
Tenthly aud lastly, he argues that tie
bill ovcrthrows and abolishcs the present
land system, which has worked so long
with admirable success, and universal
popularity.
The message was debated in the Sen.
