buque Herald, with Gen. James NJ. Tuttles
name at its mast, head, as a candidate for

Gas werecall the fervd and patriotic words
bearing in mind that no seifinterest dictated
them, as we think of that man, confesSedly
superior to all his fellows, imploring the par
ty which was dragging the country to ruin,
to pause and look around them, as we reflect
upon the scorn with which his appeals were
received, the cold indifference to all his pleas
for the integrity of the Union, our Indignation
can hardly be restrained, and though death
capped upon the utterance WE BELIEVE AND
DECLARE THAT JEFFERSON DAVIS TO-DAY LOVES
THE UNION OF 1915 WITH PURER LOVE THAN
HALF OF THOSE WHO WAR UPON HIM.
Patriots, Democrats, what think you OF
that Shall it be forgotten that James NJ.
futile has made his bed with the author Of
that sentiment? What company for a loyal
Democrat, hater of rebellion and fight. r
against JEFF. Davis, to be found in! Shall
such a sentiment be endorsed at the polls by
voting for the Herald's candidate for Gov

~ The Muscatine Courier (rebel) has
the following thre4t in its issue of August
Goth: eff the peopl' desire to prevent the
clash of arms around their own door steps,
let them secure the defeat of this man Stone "
This means, we presume, that if the people N
their sovereign capacity choose to elect Col.
Stone, the tories will rise in arms to over
throw the State Government. That the to.
ries are set of revolutionary cut threats, we
have no manner Of doubt; but we hardly
think that their threats of civil war will pre-
vent Union men from voting their choice in
October. In 1860 the Southern traitors en-
deavored to brighten Republicans by the
threat that they would precipitate bloody
war in the event of Lincoln's election The
traitors of Iowa are irving the same game in
this campaign. If they want war, let them
have it. If they desire to initiate the proud
example of their dear Southern brethren, let
them do so. In collision of this kind, the
fate of their Southern brethren vii. be theirs.
