Net single reliable Republican
county in Iowa could be induced to
vote against tho prohibitory Law
existing in the State for eleven
years past. The few Democratic
counties would do so. This shows
that Rcpublicanism and bcalthy
temperance sentiments grow IN the
same soil, and vice versa. a.-Musca-
tine Journal. .r
Well; how about Scott county
consider it reliable? Il not rather
the practice Of the republican party
to take one or tho other side Of tho
question, to suit localities? But If
the Republican party is in favor of
the prohibitory law, why is it not
enforced, and the necessary machin-
cry provided for that purpose? It
is made felony, almost. but off,
GERS and others connive at the sale.
and compound the offense With i'm
punity-clearly showing that the
prohibitory law, SO far as this state
is concerned. IS but . tub thrown to.
the puritan whale. Democrats in
in this State are out of the ring.
They will in future adopt no make
shift or pander to any questions Of
expediency. Tho Republican party
have ell the offices. or about ell.
Let's SEQ what they can do With
this prohibitory law. and what goe.l
can evolve from the foolish mca sure.

The senatorial session being ended.
and A. 8. Welch having drawn his

He is acarpet-bagger

is genuine. Being a humhug as y
it is safe to assume that he
is q humbug as an Iowa College
President. He is an adventurer.
The State of Iowa gets no credit
from his presence here during yaca-
tion. The people of Iowa received
no adequate return for the salary
they pay him as President Of the
College, and if their college scheme
were not . humbug in itself, nor
made . humbug in its management.
the presidency Of A. s. Welch would

John Randolph and the
4T- Landlord. '-'

John Randolph, Of Roanoke. was
known as one Of the most sarcastic
and surly men Of his day. To use
= vulgar expression, he was like
sore headed bear. Travelling on
horseback once through the eastern
portion of Virginia, he stopped all
night at country tavern. In the
morning the landlord. when Johns
horse was ready. tried in vain to
draw him into conversation. But
John would not converse. At last
the landlord asked him where he
was going. John retorted that be
had paid his bill and that it waa
none Of his business. The landlord
said no more. John mounted bis
horse and started of. When about
ono hundred yards from the house
he came to cross roads. There be-
ing no fnger-board he did not knew
which road to take. After ponder
ing some time over the matter, he
halloed back to the landlord to know
where the roads ran to. The land
lord halloed back saying that the
roads did not run at oil. that they
stood. John irritated, shouted at
the top Of his voice to know where
the roads led to The landlord re-
piled ut is mono Of my business; !; you
have paid your bill and can take
whichever road you please" !" .oaa
asked no more questions Of that
landlord. .'.

that he was anybody, requested the
stranger to be seated, and he would
send in for proper person to exam
inc the credentials of the visitor. '
oh! it's no matter about that;
I'm all right said the applicant,
making sundry extraordinary passes
with his hand and contortions Of
visage. - &c.
That may bc. but I think they
always examine strangers who de-
sire to visit the lodge" said tho
attending brother. 80 . u.
well, I'm ready for 'em, said
the visitor, confidently. sz...
Glad to hear it-that is quite an
elaborate breast pin you have there?'
said the other, looking with some
interest at a big gilt letter G, which
the visitor had conspicously display
ed upon his shirt bosom.
'Ya-as, that's Masonic pin. re-
piled the wearer, swelling out his
breast. "."t@H ..' /, ......"

"Whcre did you meet him /? who

mauded the enraged Mrs. Wilbur.
Blanche saw hex case vas almost
hopeless and. throwing herself upon
her knees, clasped Ter aunt's hands
in agony. It was = burst of grief,
and she gave free vent to . food of
tears.
Mrs. Wilbur was too much excit-
ed to notice approaching footsteps.
and the poor girl At her feet real
ised nothing bat her own sorrow.
Presently Blanche felt the touch of
. hand upon her bowed head
Looking up, Charles Clifford stood
before her, and in q moment more
he clasped her in his arms.
"Why, Clarance, how glad I am
to see you, !" remarked Mrs. Wilbur,
taking his disengaged hand, for one
arm was around Blanche. =.

Forgive me, dear girl, for win

Mrs. Wilbur had left the room,
aud Clarence, leading Blanche to
the sofa, tenderly wiped away the
tears-thc result Of 30 much distress;
and in an hour her heart was hap.
py enough to make up for its keen
est sorrow. -..'- . ..l.
The moire antique was made up,
