answer to the great anti-abolition effort
of Henry Clay. Mr.. Beck has been a
resident Of Iowa about 20 years, and du-
ring all of this time has devoted himself
exclusively TO the practice of the legal
profession. He has been known among
his brethren ut the bar as hard-working,
clear-headed practitioner, effective before
a jury, but strongest in the argument Of
law questions before the Courts. His
briefs are prepared with great care, rs
an evidence Of which It may be stated

mcnt made In certain case by Mr.. Beck
in the Iowa Court was quoted very full

tons of citizen which isabove reproach
and as he has never yet been an incumb-
emit of an elective office, his elevation
from the walks Of private life to the
highest Judicial tribunal in the State
will be an honor of which he will have
occasion to be proud. ........
d. Franklin Wells, appointed by the
Governor to the Office Of Superintendent
of Puplic instruction to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the resignation of Oran
Faville, is a practical teacher of long
experience, and the Convention made a
wise choice in selecting him as a candi-
date for q full term. The Office of 6u-
in its bearing upon the in
terests of the State, present and future,
is perhaps more important than any 9TH
er in the list, and we have confidence
that Mr.. Wells will aim to discharge its
with faithful fidelity
