Tama County Republican. (Toledo, Tama County, Iowa) 1867-1872, 1869-08-12
TO THE CITIZEN VOTERS OF TA1dA
COUNTY.

The undersigned, wishing to become can
didate before the Republican County Conven-
ton for the Office Of County Treasurer, begs
leave to say that he asks the liberal support
of all true Republicans, and that if elected he
will endeavor to perform the duties Of the Of
fee faithfully and to the entire satisfaction
of the people. I ask none to support me in
opposition to their own best judgment, believ-
ing as do that in all matters, as citizens Of
great Republic, and in land where the
people are rulers, the wants Of the many
ought TO be first considered. am, however,
of the opinion that the northern portion Of the
county is justly entitled to county office;
but of this you must be the judges.
With Respect, Your Obedient Servant,
SAMUEL II. BALDWIN.

Ir you do not feel well, you send for doc
tor, he calls upon you, looks wise, sucks the
head Of his cane, scrawls some: hieroglifcs
upon piece of paper which you take to a
drug store, and there pay sc cts. to SI00 be-
sides the doctor's fee, for q remedy nine times

tain Her Pills which is only 25 cts. per box
Do you think the former the best because you
pay the most for it, if you do, we advise you
to use just for an experiment the Judson's
Mountain Herb Pills and see for yourself that
they are one Of the best family medicines
compounded, they cure Headache, Indigestion
Billiousness, Jaundice, and all Female Irreg-
ulaiities. Give the Mountain Herb Pills q

The Eclipse.

The Eclipse.
This phenomenon occurred last Sat
urday in accordance with previous an
nouncement. There was no postpone
ment on account OF the weather, for
the day was all that could be desired.
The atmosphere was little hazy, but
not enough so to interfere with the
extraordinary spectacle.
The beginning Of the eclipse was
seen here as early as 3:45 p. M, was
gazed at IN wonder, admiration, curl
osity and scientific inquiry, during all
the phases of its progress to totality
and its final disappearance. Every
body, of course, observed it, watching
the light of the sun diminish gradually,
the rays growing more and more dim,
the atmosphere changing to cooler
temperature, the visible portion Of the
suns disk becoming smaller until the
whole was swept over by the body Of
the moon and the eclipse was COM
plete.
Between two and three minutes Of
anxious waiting was passed when there
appeared in the edge of the lower
part of the right limb of the moon a
bright flashing of sunlight as though
at that point was great, deep valley
on the moons surface. In few sec
onds OF time another such flashing OF
sunlight was seen in the upper part of
the same limb, like another great val
vey, and soon the great shadow passed
by us and the light of the sun came
upon us in its glory, though small in
volume. Only two stars were visible,
Venus and Mercury, and they were
stationed, one each side OF the great
bodies, like sentinels on their beat.
The corona around the moon dur
ing the totality was q most beautiful
sight. Taking the great bodies in con-
junction as center, the rays flashed
outward IN all directions, like the
"glory" which ancient artists always
portrayed around the head Of Jesus.
Only in form of flashes and beauty of
outline did it resemble the best cxhi-
bition Of the Aurora Borcales, for it
was more luminous, aud stationary.
These flashes did not form a perfect
circle, as would have been, and was by
most, expected, the upper and right
side being considerably squared,
though irregularly so.
1t was magnificent spectacle, view

On slae Pave.

On che Pave.
We learn that Mr.. S, D. Foster has
purchased the building in which is DR..
Rogers Drug store. We hope that
that side walk will now receive the at
tentlon it deserves.-And while on the
subject of side walks, we might as well
mention that the side walk in front of
the store of Wieting & Muckler needs
cutting down at least foot from the
top so as to conform to the established
grade Of the streets.-While talking
about Wieting & Muckler, we might
mention, just for the fun of the thing,
that Muckler no longer forms part of
that firm, while Mr.. Chapman does, al
though the advertisement has as We.
made no mention of any change in the
firm name.-From Wieting & Chap
mans store 1t is but step to the Mill
merry Bazaar of Mrs. Nash, which, we
notice, is being moved forward on
line with other folks buildings and al
SO elevated few inches in the world.
directly across the street from the
Bazaar of Mrs. Nash is the Post office
the owner of which has not yet rcduc-
ed the grade of the side walk as per
order of the City. Council.-Wm +.
Johnston's side walk is now 0. X,
which means "Oll Korrect,' being per-
feet in form and beauty.-While on
the side walk We might as well say
that the jumping off place by the print-
ing office is as steep and dangerous as
ever, and the need for continuance Of
the work to fill a gap elegant" is as
trumpet tongued in its demand as ever.
1t is change of subject, or, at
least, of locality, we know, to say any
thing about the rough and uneven con
dition of the side walk along part OF
Meizner's newly painted Saloon and
Grocery. the paint Of which we took oc-
casion few weeks ago to commend,
but we record It here as fact worth
noticc.-The change is as sudden to
the walk from the tin shop to the
jumping off and leg breaking hole, at
the Billiard Saloon. We could like to
make record of the repairing of those

We learn from the Leader that GER
tam parties owning quarries near Or
ford propose to donate the marble, in
the rough state, for the proposed sol
diers monument of lama county,
Here is generosity that is to some pur-
pose
We believe the people are generally
favorable to the monument and will
sustain any appropriation the Board
may make for this worthy object Five
thousand dollars is the amount which
1t is the intention to ask of the Board
but the generous offer Of the Oxford
marble owners will reduce the estimat-
ed cost of tho monument. Let the pc
tition continue to be circulated until
the September session of the Board,
and then let long one be presented.
