Four I:ichmOnds In she Field.
Congressional aspirants in this district
are numerous and earnest. Our readers a.
ready know that Cotton. Of Lyons, has long
teen in the field, and has thrown his hat
inside the license ring. and squared himself
TO fight the temperance men. McNutt, Of
Musca,ine. is his opponent, and Mac takes
the dilemma firmly by the o.he: horn and
declares ,ha, uadsr The temperance Gag
alone, with not drop Of brandy. rum or
ria-nei,her native vine or beer-he will
6ght and conquer. These are two. There
arc two more
Clinton county has another aspiring son
better known, perhaps. than either Cotton
or MeNu,t-who is our Prosecuting Attor
n.y. l., man Ellis, end he has put himself
j. training for the race and laid HE plans
deep ana strong Ellis 10 not a Temperance
man-nei,her in preaching nor in practice
except when surrounding circumstanceI
require him to be 40. He rather calculates
that he can Aoes Judge Cotton two TO one
The other halls from Muscatine. Jaco
Butler Is the man. He thinks he has val,
ed about long enough for stool in tho Low
CT house Of Congrsss. and 10 losiDg no or
portunity TO make known his claims. But
lcr. like McNutt. wears temperance straig
jacket. and is almost sure to win-h
thiuks.
Thus you see them:
A. r. Cotton, Intemperance, Lyons.
Lyman + lis, lntemperancc. Lyons.
Sam McNutt, Temperance, Muscatine.
Jacob Butler, Temperance, Muscatine.
Four Rchmonds indeed and more /
como perhaps. \ quadrancular fight i
~hiea there will be a great slaughter.
