In slluding to this rsnwk, sf'e Fost says:

The Daty er Iowa Democrats.
The election 10 near 1t hand, and the
Dnooatic party nnds itself without can
didates for State officers. Without stop
ping to consider the propriety or impro-
psiety Of ths course pursued BY the lsaAsrs
Of the party, We must deal with things %
We find them.
The Additions have placed ia nomina-
ton for Governor man Who disgraced the
Federal uniform while in the military ser
Viz, and who, - citizen, has never learn
ed the meaning Of the word honor. A
wretchcd profligate and base libertinc, he
again seeks a renewal Of power, that in his
petty way he may grind his enemies into
the earth No State in all the Union has
been 20 disgraced - Iowa. Gov. Oslesby
and Ex-Governor Yates, Of Illinois, are bott,
drunkards. but they have some redceming
qualities Stone has none. II is left for
Iowa, solitary and alone, to bear this noun
tain Of disgrace. And, thank God, it is
now left with tho people Of Iowa TO say
whether they will submit to the rule Of
such creature, two years longer. Yea, it
% happens that it il lelt to the Democratic
patty to settle this question. and to settle
it il they choose, against the vile wretch.
Now, will the Dcuoseatic party do IT.
In opposition TO this MAN Stone, Gen.
