Flows is one Of the Young giant States
81 The West, whose progress is almost
II : m thicsf character. Settled almost
v,tbin the recollection Of the youngest
inhabitant, ito fertile, beautiful prairies,
the varied landscape Of hill and valley,
and it, mineral wealth, have arrested .
large population, and the tide Of immi'
grafton has hardly begun. In 1910,
the territory Of Iowa contained 43, liz
inhabitants, all told. In 1850, it had
become q State, and had population
Of 1914. In 1860, the number
reached 674,94s, or an increase OF over
300 per cent. in single decade. Not
withdrawing the extreme youth OF the
State, ard the exceedingly financial de-
pressed condition of tho entire country
for nearly one half the period OF its ex-
is,ence, it has inaugurated, and in
measure completed, a system Of railways
which is ahead OF many OF the old
States, and bids fair to rival majority
of them. Iowa has more lines of rail-
way completed to-day than Kentucky.
The follow ing is list Of railways char
tered, with their contemplated length,
and the distance already completed,
within the boundary Of the State:

From New York.

New YORK, Sept. %.
Advices from Pensacola to 18th, and
Key West goth, are received.
No news; sickness ashore ; Key Yves,
abandoned; but no improvement from
shipping. A letter from New Orleans
states that the expedition to the town
Of Ponchatrain, under Maj. Strong, has
returned. They succeeded in driving
the rebels out of Ponchatrain, but the
rebels seon returned with reinforce.
ments aud drove the federals back.
Our loss in killed, wounded and miss
ing was forty. Our troops captured the
Post office and its contents; also sword
trappings presented to JEFF Thompson
by the citizens Of Memphis.
Daily Democrat and news. [volume] (Davenport, Iowa) 1859-1864, 1862-09-30
Total. 1882

The area of Iowa is 5O,9l4 square
miles. There is therefore completed
and running one mile Of railway to
about seventy five miles Of surface; but
as few Of the roads are completed one
hundred miles west of the Mississippi,
and the State is nearly 800 miles in
breadth, in the settled portion Of the
State there may be said to be about one
mile of railway to twenty.six miles OF
surface.
The agricultural and mineral wealth
Of this State is but just beginning to be
known and developed, and it is quite
probable that the next ten years will
exhibit even greater increase Of popu-
lation and resources than the past

ACCORDING to the United States cen.
sus of 1850, there were at that time
about 100000 more males than females
in the United States, fact unprece-
denied in the census of any other civil.

States there is an excess of females; in
Massachusetts, 81 900 more females than
males, while in Illinois there is an ex-
cess Of $4,000 males; in Michigan, 49,
900 excess of males; in Wisconsin, 49,

STRIKE AT THE ROOT.

their choice-made it long ago-made
it before the Republican party had a
name or existence before the seeds Of
treason and rebellion had produced
fruit. Their election was that on al &C.
casions, and under all circumstances they
would stand firm by the Constitution and
the laws. We feel that they will do SO
yet, regardless Of what any party, any
person, or any president may say or do.
The Democracy OF Iowa stands pledged
to support the President Of any party
as long as that President observes the
laws Of the land, and keeps his feet in
Constitutional ways. They have ever
supported President Lincoln in all his
legal acts, and will ever continue to do
80. 1t is for overstepping Constitution.
al limits, and for yielding TO the Adolf
ton and disloyal "pressurs" that lie
brought upon him, that the Democracy
Of Iowa stand alOof from him today.
There is no other reason. Show the
people of that party that the late eman'
cipation proclamation was a Constitu-
tional act, necessary to tho restoration
and perpetuity of the Union, and there
is not q man Of them who will moi
praise him for it. But this is not claim
ed nor did the President claim tina,
the step would inure to the least advan
tage to the country, or bring the frs,
blessing down upon the cause in which
80 many noble men are gloriously strug'
CLING, and in which 90 much preciou.
blood is being spilled. Besides having
no virtue in itself it ;~pa.ts nothing
strengthening to the Union cause. Fol-
all this we have the word of the Presi-
dent himself. If that amounts to any.
thing we commend it to general consid.
Grafton; if it amounts to nothing then
he is the fit man to issue such procla.
nations.
The Democracy of Iowa will not hes.
itate in their course. There remains
but one thing for them to do-that is to
labor most earnestly and untiringly for
the coming two weeks for the success of
their ticket in every county and district
In the State. Let every man do his
duty. The present condition of affairs
demands that there be a chang in the
next Congrsss-such change as will
not only teach Presidents that they are
but subordinate to Congress and the
Constitution, but as we'll let the country
know in the most positive terms that
this war has got to come to close-got
to be fought out forthwith. No dang
ling, pietald policy, butssa straightfor-
ward, irresistable course will be the re-
suit. Republicans and Abolitionists
have proven themselves unequal to the
task. Eighteen months have they blum
dersd on, first lameing the Constitution
here, their dabbling with niger policy,
and election policy there, and to-day
the country is farther from the hour Of
redemption than it was when the first
rebel gun was opened upon Sumter.
The Democracy Of Iowa must not forget
that with them and with their brethren
in other loyal States, remains the work
Of restoring this Union, if such lie to be
the case. Let no man amonr Won
shrink from any duty. You owe all to
your country. Shirk no responsibility
the hour Of peril is upon the nation.
There Is yet hope; let it be made still
stronger through your noble deeds.
