The Chinese Question.

The Republican State Convention
of California, held last week, adopted
Resolutions declaring that the ratifi-
cation of the 18th Amendment should
be followed by universal amnesty
and enfranchisement for Southern
people; opposing grants in aid of
Railroads; DC. On the Chinese ques-
ton, which has a special interest in
that State, the Resolutions favor full
protection for inofiensive Chinese
immigrants, and believe it would be
injurious to close American ports
against their coming; but they oppose
Chinese suffrage in any form, or any
change i'm our naturalization laws.
Remembering that the new Organi-
zation in the Southern States propos-
es to bring on anew horde of laborers
direct from China, we may well con-
slider that "the Chinese question:
must yet come prominently before
the people of this country-perhaps
to prove only less troublesome than
"the negro question:" The pure and
abstract principle of equal rights can
not be practically applied to so many
and SO widely different races in one
country without great agitation.

Parton on Congress.

Parton, the nagaZinist, has we'll
written article in thecurrent atlantic
Monthly, about the doings of the
"lobby" of Congress at Washington,
the gist of which is to urge that, on
the whole, Congress is composed Of
pretty good men, as honestas average
humanity or more SO, and represent
ing our nation pretty fairly; and that
much of what we hear of "the cor
ruption in Congress" is pure false
hood, manufactured by the lobby and
its numberless adhsrents.
Taken by itself alone, the article
sounds very strong and clear; but we
observe that some leading Journals
make heavy discounts on it, and in-
sinuate that Parton is whiteWashing
without being an adept in the use OF
the brush. Some certain Members
of Congress would not only need to
be whitewashed, bpt painted, even
silver-plated, over and again, many
times, before we could think them
the true metal. Nevertheless, we
desire to believe as far as possible in
their honesty, patriotism and other
virtues; but the point still comes up
Why, when certain villainies are
fully shown and proven, does Con-
gress merely pass them by?

Republican State Ticket.
McMilIan'S ReSigna-

The numerous friends Of the Hon.
Thos. Mcmillan in this County will
learn with surprise and regret that
he has resigned his position as Sena-
tor from the 10Th Senatorial District.
The reasons for this resignation are
not of a public nature; and we cannot
deem them sufficient. We refrained
from mentioning the matter last
week, in the hope that the resigna-
ton might be withdrawn; but the
fact now exists beyond recall. Sena-
tor Mcmillan has served for one
whole term and half of the one which
he resigns. No man is more respect
ed, in private or as Legislator, both
here at home and elsewhere. One Of
our old and influential citizens, per-
fectIy honest and sincere in every
thing, politically as well as socially,
he was such a man as Marion County
cannot spare from her delegation in
the Assembly without regret. An
other, ever so able and sincere, vii!
find it the work of time to inspire
such confidence as was reposed in
Mr.. Mcmillan by the entire Senate.
The state Register of the 23d inst.
remarks as follows:
The resignation of Senator Thomas
Mcmillan, of Marion County, was
received yesterday at the Executive
Office. Senator Mcmillan is one OF
the oldest citizens of that County,
and has represented itright worthily
and ablyin the Senatefor three terms.
Among his co-lahorers he was uni
versally respected for his judgment
and his sterling qualities as man.
A special election will be eheld in that
County to fill the vacancy, and will
be held at the same time as the gen
eral State election.

Fearful Slaughter Of Demo-
Gratis,

The stories Of the hundreds Of
white men who have mysteriously
disappeared from Washington with
i'm a year or two, az narrated by the
UOrid, are very well burlesqued by
the following dispatch in the Ere"-
ina Post "frOm our special Demo

Our next Legislature Will be one OF
great importance inlhe history OF our
State. Questions Tor discussion and
decision will arise, requiring Tor their
proper consideration and disposal
the experience, Judgment and in
tegrity of our wiseSt and best men.
Ia selecting candidates, we trust the
Republicans ut least, Of the various
Legislative Districts, will look solely
to the interests of The public, which
are far above all merely personal
considerations. Our candidates ought
not only to be men of ability and
legislative aptitude, but they should
be i'm integrity and character above
the faintCst suspicion of dishonesty
men who would rcpel acorrupt prop
Osifion Of any sort with more energy
and Indignation, even, than they
would a personal assault. Our past
General Assemblies have been com
paratively free from corruption ana
iobbcry, but the inducements to in
fluence legislation by disrcputable
means increase with the growth
and magnitude of our material in
tCrCstS.
Our legislators ought to he truly
representative men-representatiN
Ofthe collective judgment, wisdom,
experience, patriotism, and the pro-
gressive and liberal spirit Of our no
bic commonwealth. That they may
be such, they must be sought out and
taken up by the people, and not nom
mated merely because they push
themselves forward with pcrsistency.
And TO this end, the best men OF
every class should participate in the
primary meetings and elections
business men, farmers, merchants,
labOrers-all who desire equal and
just laws, good order, wise economy,
and the supremacy of intelligence
and virtue in the State. The vast
majority of our people, Of both parties
and all honorable occupations, are
honest and well.disposed; and as they
have the control in their own hands,
there is no good reason why they
should be represented, or rather mis-
represented, by incapable men, or
men Of doubtful integrity.
We raise our voice in behalf ct an
honest. competent, and incorrupiihlt
General Assembly, and we remind
the people that, if they would have
such body Of men at DcS Moines
next winter, they must look well to
the nominations that will be made
in the next six weeks.-Udwkcye.

What They Say.

The current Democratic Platform
for 1869 in this State is given in full
in another place. When thing is
got up so evidently for nothing, and
when nominations are made so absO-
lutely for nothing more than merely
"going through the motions and
serving as aids to help elect some
County tickets, it seems almost idle
to comment on them. The tone of
the "Whereas' seems curiOusly to
imply that the Resolutions are an
nounced, not as the actual beliefs and
opinions of the candidates, but as a
credo to which they must conform.
The first Resolution is nothing
more or less than a rebel howl over
the defeat of slavery, the rebellion,
and the rule of Southern chivalry.
1t need not be discussed; for the in
exOrable logic Of events has settled
the decision. AS to the second and
third Resolutions, theirdoctrinesc cam
not be considered any longer as pc
culiarly party principles, for the rea-
son that the parties do not now take
distinct issue on them. Many radi-
cal Republicans hold just such views
as these two Resolutions announce,
while many hold just the contrary.
The points are to be argued, there
fore, not as special party principles,
but as questions of policy on which
individual opinions may differ with
out regard to party.
The animus of the next Resolution
is the main fault we find with it.
Were it not that those who have been
tried by Military Commissions were
rebels, or Of rebel actsand sympathies,
this Resolution would never have
been presented. And as to the Yer
ger case-at which mainly we sup
pose it to have been aimed-it will
be remembered that this case Is to
come before the Supreme Court next
October.
The Economy and Accountability
Resolution is all right, and tallies
very we'll with the I'd and 9th planks
in our own State Platform. The
next one, referring to the National
Debt, is so vague, pOintless and alb
surd that we question very much
whether anybody in the Convention
knew what it was driving at. 1t
sounds to US like pure and unmitiga-
ted buncombe. And the next ResO-
luton certainly has something of the
same weakness. OF course, we all
unite in welcoming to our shores the
oppressed of every nation, and in
"making the home of their adoption
free to them" with no other restric-
tions than those which our own
safety requires. What, then, is the
special point Of this Resolution?

From Page County.

Friend J. Z. Vincent, formerly ofthis
County, sends US d lengthy communi-
cation, describing that County ana Its
resources. We thank him very much
for his kindness, and wish our paper
were large enough to hold all we want
to put in it; but asit is not, must con-
dense some particulars:
The actual population of Page Coun-
ty. Iowa, is f2,0Oo to $1,000, and rap
idly increasing. Two Railroads are
projected: the st. Louis, Chilicothe
and Omaha, and the Iowa Southwest
ern. the latter running through the
County east and west. Timber will

prairie. The entire County is remark
ably well supplied with fresh running
streams of water, including five rivers
making a very paradise for stock.
The East Nodaway river gives supe-
rior mill sites. Stone coal has been
found, and is much used, selling at Is
to 70 cents per bushel at the banks.
Six banks are now worked, one of
which gives bed of coal 81 feet thick
Good limestone is found in various
parts OF the County. Few bricks have
yet been used; pine chiefly employed
for building.
Soil well adapted for farming, and
considered better than Illinois or even
Eastern Iowa. Wheat and corn are
the principal products. Excellent APP
pies are grown. During the past year
the County has shipped 2,l00 head of
cattle, 5000 hogs and 1900 sheep, to
Chicago and Council Bluffs. There
are about iirst-c!ass Touring mills in
the County, and numerous, saw mills.
Community generally live, moral and
industrious. BY the lst of August the
Il. & Nj. Railroad will probably he
completed to within II miles of the
County-seat
There are in the County 60 school
houses, costing $50 900; with - teach
ers, whose salaries amount to $4,000 Il
year. There are 8 church buildings in
the County, every one of which would
reflect credit on Weather commu-
nifty. Clarinda, the County-seat, is
beautifully located upon an eminence
on the west bank of the West Noda-
way river, and has population OF
| 200; with 5 churches, | school house,
3 weekly newspapers, g lawyers, bank
mills, and almost every other business
except liquor dealer. Hawleyville, OF
the eastern line of the County, is the
! oldest town, and boasts u fine a cad
envy.
And friend Vincent closes by ad
vising every person who is comforta
bly, situated III Marion County, t'
remain, but if determined to leave
then TO come out that way, and call on
him, six miles north of Clarinda. En-
inently sensible, friend V.

And as to the last plank, we are
glad that it-or at least the first part
of it's announced SO plainly. The
earnest and candid Temperance men
of the State can now see where to
look for aid, or rather, where not to
look. And we commend this matter
to the special attention of some of
our friends in this County. What
the "stringent license law" might
be, which the Democracy would have
instead of Prohibition, of course nu
one can tell; but the spirit of this
Resolution may be inferred from the
fact that it was accepted as substi-
tute, by Mr.. Murphy, for the follow
ing, which he had offered:
"Resoived, That in the opinion of
this Convention, the sO-called Maine
liquor law, that now disgraces the
statute books of the State of Iowa
ought to be repealed at the earliest
pOSSiblo moment"
Iowa voter. [volume] (Knoxville, Iowa) 1867-1874, 1869-07-29

The following are the Resolutions
passed by the Iowa State Democratic
Convention, held in Des Moines July
IA, 1869:
WHEREAS, Upon the eve Of po-
IiticaI canvass, the time-hOnOred
usage of our party requires that a
platform of principles be announced
for the government OF those who may
be elected to Office:
ResOiced, That the Democratic par
ty view with alarm the action Of an
INSCRIPTIONS majority in Congress in
their attempts TO absorb the powers
of the executive and judicial depart
mcntS of the Government and to an
initiate the rights and functions of
the State governments.
Res0tUed, That we favor reform
i'm the national banking system, look
ing to an ultimate abOlishmcnt of
that pernicious plan for the aggrand-
izement of few at the expense of
the many.
Res0lued, That now, as in the time
past, we are opposed to high pro-
tective tariff, and that we will use
every effort to prevent and defeat
that system of national legislation
which would enrich Il small class of
manufacturers at the expense Of a
great mass Of producers and cOnsum-
ers; and that we are in favor of such
reforms in our tariff system as shall
promote commerce with every nation
of the world.
ResOlred, That the pretended trial,
conviction and execution Of persons
not belonging to the military or ma
val service of the United States, by
military commission, is in direct
conflict with the Constitution, and
we denounce the same as unworthy
Of a free people, and disgiacefui to
the American Government.
Resoiyed, That we demand no more
and will submit to nothing less than
the settlement of the Alabama claims,
according to the recognized rules Of
international law, and that we de-
clare it to be the duty of the Govern
ment to protect every citizen, Wheth-
er naturaized or native, in every
right of liberty and property through
out the world, without regard to the
pretended claims Of foreign nations
to their allegiance.
ResOIred, That we are in favor Of
and insist upon an economical admin
istration Of the national and State
Governments; that the people may
be speedily as possible relieved from
the load Of taxation with which they
are now oppressed, and that public
officers should he held to strict ac-
countabiIity to the people forall their
official acts. .-.--..
ResOlred. That n national debt is a
national curse, and that while we ia
vor the payment Of our present in
debtedness according to the strict
letter of the contract, we would rath-
er repudiate the same than see it
made the means for the establishment
of an empire upon the ruins Of con-
stitutiOnal law and liberty.
Resolred, That we cordially invite
to our shores the oppressed Of every
civilized nation, and we pledge our
selves to make the home of their
adoption. free to them without any
other condition than that of residence
and allegiance.
ResO1red, That we are in favor OF
the repeal Of the present prOhibitory
liquor law. believing it inadequate
to accomplish the purpose designed
by it; and as a substitute for the
same, we are in favor of the enact
ment Of a stringent license law.
