SQUIRMs.-We don't know that the Union is
authority, but if it is, then there seems to be
guilt somewhere among the Tama City wheat
buyers. They seem to take the statement,
ave have seen wheat buyers, who, however,
were enabled to ship an extra car filled with
stolen wheat, or rather which they got by
cheating in weight" all to themselves, when
We distinctly stated hat mo one who ever
bought wheat in Tsma City would do that
thing" To throw of this suspicion which it
seems from the Union, is resting upon them,
the lama City wheat buyers, according to what
the game paper says, seek now TO throw the
responsibility Of wheat stealing in lama City
on q resident of this place, who it seems clerk
ed for one Of that fraternity, sometime since,
to say the least such aings are very migrate
full, if Tama City wheat buyers have done the
fair thing with the farmer they certainly give
some very poor proofs of it, such as paying
less for the same quality of wheat than at
other points, raising their own bids on the
same load Of wheat, and only one wheat buyer
buying wheat on the same day, seeming thus
to take their turns in the swindling process

Ease CALAMIrY.-Under this caption the
Union among other very silly things, gets off
the following reyy choice item Of news:
"place q beggar on horseback and he win
ride to the ID" is an old adage mere TRUTH
full than p~oetical: but place types and n print
ing press at the mercy Of conccitel stupidity
and you will find its counterpart" The above
fling is intended to apply to the editors Of the
REPUBLICAN,, but we SUPPOSE from this choice
item of literature, however, that we are to in
fer that the editor Of the Union knows his
statements to be true, not so much from ohscr-
walton rs from hise rperience in "beggarly" life,
for most assuredly he is one of the most rick
ity old beggars that we know of in this coun-
try, besides We learn that he has recently be-
come the posscssor Of a horse Ct full age, on
which he doubtless took . ride to visit his ell
der brother, the ID at his usual residence.
and certainly for 'conceited stupidity" no one
Of whom we know anything, has a higher de-
gree Of that composition than has the editor
Of The Union, especially when he seeks to make
people believe that Tama City is the Embryo
State Capital, a common cur ought to have
more brains than to believe such hosh, but the
silly old scobosh Of ro,tonism" who runs the
Union persists in believing that such a future
will yet visit his City.
