York this fall you can tally. Wdreriy Neus.
This Is said by the same new-ficdged
editor, who called upon us this week,
and informed us that the Johnsonitcs
are going to carry Cedar Falls with a
rush at the coming election, and prob
ably Black Hawk County! He added
that Waverly would 60 the same way

Congress over Allison, as everybody
acknowledged!
So then, it is all up with US; We are
d" done-gonc-bustsd." Nothin' to
say; only wait till after election, and
then compare these veracious prophe-
cies with the returns. What mighty
hopeful chaps these Observation-Disclosures
nuts are, especially just after getting
the promise of a post office! Let them
brag before hand; It's all the chance
they have. They only expect to re-
duce the radical majorities as they have
in Maine v'-that is to reduce them

call reduction ascending" In the

FACTS W. THEORIES.

80" Give me place to rest my lever
on, says Archimedes, ''and I will move
the world. "" Give me pure and un-
adulteratcd drugs" says Medicus, of
the olden time, land l will cure dis
ease. ss ... ... ssa .
In one sense, both the learned pun
dts were the veriest charlatans. They
knew there was no place to rest their
lever on, either to move the world or
cure disease. Mechanism was. in a
backward state, and the medical pre-
fession was but another name for sor-
Gerry, and all the adjuncts of magic Ill
tiers and charms of the " evil eye, bz&c.
But these latter days have borne unto
us something more than even super
stition and its crew ever areampt of in
their maddest philosophy In these
days of practical science, what was
theory of yesterday Is fact to-day, and
all the old time notions become as
bubbles In the sun, and burst and break
with every breath we draw.
Let Archimeies shoulder his lever
and we will find resting place for it
to move the world. Let mine ancient
Medicus pant and toll no more for the
drugs he sorely needs, for We have them
ut our hand, over ready to serve them
at his beck. .,.ss..;. :.
