quite iubihnt when they heard of the

pot that they would laugh on The otha
side of their faces ifthey were subjected

days. Ets well enough for them merely
to syrpathize with Southern ty:an ny,
but let them airy it on, il they want to
feel the benefits oft. We hope such a
contingency may never arise, but we
should choose the lower regions in pref.

THE CAMPAIGN.

dicial districts which compose it, and it.
which there are candidates for high and
important Offices, is now about opening
with spirit and energy. The various
candidates and their partizan friends.
ale girding on the political harness and
taking the stump in all directions. This
is all customary and proper, and in this
respect we have no fears but that the
democracy OF Iowa will do its full share.
Now, as in former times, now, OF all
times, they have high duty to dis
charge which it would be very unwise
and extremely unsafe toignore. Demo.
cratic principles, democratic measures,
thoroughly and fearlessly carried out, is
Just " hat the country needs at this time.
L. is an unwise departure from the prln-
aples Of the democratic party that is
the cause Of all the troubles under which
he county is now struggling, and as
hey prize their couutry's honor, ano
hope for its restoration to It's former
strength and glory, we adJure every
democrat in the State to make use OF
every honorable effort within his power
20 aid on the election of democratic can
ddates, and the consequent restoration
Of democratic rule.
The idea of no party and no party
measures, are impracticable, and no,
only so, but unwise. The republican
,arty of to-day has not the least idea OF
.doptiug no party course, and to be
honest about it, we can't say that We
care to have them. Whether we cared
for it or not, there is no disposition Cd
their part to do so.
Democratic principles and measures are
good enough for any person, and when
we once leave them 10 mix in or coalese
with any other party, or faction, we are
guilty OF willful deviation from the
principles which by right should, and for
many years have governed and guided
this country with singular success and
prosperity.
Let the democracy Of Iowa, true to
their former zeal and love Of country,
,tand up in this present campaign and
nnfluchlngly labor for the success of the
party. 1t is their duty and their privil
,ge, and We ask that it may be done
with fearless and enthusiastic spirit.
