UWFLEA ASIAN i TRUTHS.

Under the above head the Musoatine
Journal, and able and independent Re-
publican Journal snumerates some Of the
abuses which have Of late become so glar-
ing in the administration of our state
Government. We qoute the following:
The boy who wrote IN bis father ~Sz
questing him TO come out West, stating
that " mighty mean men get Offices out
here" must have been G resident Of Iowa.
We know that, as general thing, il is
considered no ain TO sRiadle the Govern,
menk IN common times. But these are
uncommon times, and the necessity that
honest men should be elected 10 Offices
should be apparent to every one. Our
people will soon be lAboring under . sys-
tenn of taxation such as they have never
known before, and il behoVes cur State
government to cut down its expenses to
the lowest notch. Now, perhaps, many
people imagine that the government Of
this State is economically administered,
but greater mistake could not have been
made. 1t is but a short time since Gov
ernor kirkwood vetoed bill reducing
the salaries of the State officers. The
thing was pretty well CLOSED over, but
there is no use trying to disguise the fact
that some Of our State officials are de-
termined to make money, people or no
people.
Again, in the dispotism Of railroad
passes the money of the State has been
most recklessly wasted. 1t has become a
notorious fact that friends Of certain Of
deers have been furnished With passes to
travel around tbs country ca mere pleas
ure excursions.

We are pleased 10 learn shr 1agh tha

We are to hare q Democratic State Con-
vention called for the 18th Of July. WhEla
we would prefer an earlier day, We aras ii
the same time, willing TO lay aside our
personal preference in this matter IL, In
the estimation OF others, il will redoand
TO the good Of the canse We have espous-
| cd.
County committees should at once take
the matter in hand and secure county or
ganixationA In time for conventions TO
send delegates to represent them in this
State ConyeReion. This Convention Is TO
be one Of the most important to the con-
seryative men Of Iowa ever held In the
State; and we trust that element viii be
truly aroused to this fact, and in their pri-
mary conventions select su1h men only as
will truly and faithfully represent them
views and interests. t-e-
Ihexe should be no hating Or faltering
in this matter. There are no hrmez and
soandeE friends of the uuien, and the
Fighss Of the Stassa, than tins true, na&ion-
aI Democracy of the Northwest, who aei-
Foeate and support the principles Which
govern all true, conservative. national
men, NOT because Of their lore for, or op-
position to, slavery, but because Of their
abiding and determined purpose to main
tain the guarantys Of the Constitution,
aud TO secure to every State in the Union
every right not surrendered TO the Gener-
al Government at the time the national
compact was formed. They have not on
y the burden of maintaining the sfirma-
tive of their position, but the additional
necessity Of meeting, in argument aud po-
litioal tactics, powerful and arrogant
sectional party, which expects to profit By
the position it occupies. ~
Thus We have all the burden of the con-
trovsEsy, and, as q sequence, are entitled
to our true and honorable position as the
only true eonseETators Of national senti-
ment, and IS the defenders Of the only
principles upon which she Union can rest,
now OF hereafter. These views ars so Just
as to be worthy of general recognition,
and we commend them to careful consid-

ic party, as enunciated by the founders Of
that organization, eInb0dy the only pr:n-
eiples upon which the conservative men of
the Northwest, and of the Onion general
ly, can unite in their opposition to the ag-
gressions Of the party now in powsT-the
enemy to the Union, the Constitution and
the laws.
Let Us, therefore, in selecting men to
be called, saleet those who have been tried
IN the political fire which has swept over
the land, and who have proven themselves
TO be true men and firm, unyielding ad-
voeates Of the Union, and the constitu-
sioual rights Of the States and the peo-
pls.-FafuieId Constitutions and Union.

Whsthss shs party there determine 70 call
a Convention earlier or later, the discuss
ion of the question proves that they ara
fully impressed with the responsibility
resting upon them, in common with the
Democracy Of the country, and that they
propose to do their whole duty. The soon
a the paeple of this country realize the
fact that the salvation Of The Constitution
and the Union rests On the success of the
Democratic party, the sooner viii the
ooaasry be relieved Of the oppressive
waight of doUbt and uncertainty that pal
sizes every enterprise and makes days weeks
and weeks years years Of anxiety and
gloomy foreboding. And they can only
be impressed with that fact when they sec
she Democracy united, earnest and faith
fal to shsir principles.
The Democracy everywhere feel that
the sectional animosities and local fanas-
icism now in power in the General Gov
aEnment and in the States of the North
are entirely important TO bring this war

their glorious record in she past
The Democracy of Iowa, We understand

the coming campaign they propose to sue

ing, bus it can be done. They propose 10
reorganixe the Democratic party In their
State. And TO reorganize the Democrat
ie party in the States is the way, in our
Judgment to reorganiEe it it in The eoun-
Try. The Democratic masses can meet In
State conventions, and fully impressed
with the responsibility resting upon them
can make their ticket of reliable men, and
make their platform meet the emergency
