Republican Party In
iowa.

The strength of the Republican
party in this State consists in giving
the people the administration and
policy that the people want. The
people of Iowa wanted the Union
preserved, and the Republican party
was the party of the Union. The
people of Iowa detested slavery, and
the Republican was the anti-slavery
party. The people of Iowa believe
in genuine Democracy-in giving
the ballot to every man and the Re-
publican party executed that wish
The people want an economical adj
ministration, and under Republican
administration, the State is out of
debt, and State taxation is probably
lighter than any other State in the
Union, and the Republican party
proposes to make it yet less. The
people want good men in office, and
purer, better men were never candi-
dates for public Office than the Re-
publican candidates just nominated.
The purest and best men i'm Office, and
the utmost economy in administra-
ton; the smallest possible amount
in taxation, and the highest interests
of the people and the State upheld
and advanced in every direction
that is what the people want. Be-
cause the Republican party honestly
and faithfully executes the will of
the people in these particulars there
fore it is that the Iowa Republican
party is so strong. And as long as
the party continues to do this, so
long will it be invincible. Gate

great deal to say about Peter Melen-

the State Convention. If the Her.

1T may learn from any of the dele
gates present that the judi cial caucus
which assembled on the morning OF
the convention voted unanimously to
sustain Melendy in his manner OF
conducting the campaign. After the
report Of the State Central Commit

the books and papers but Mr.. Melen.

The Council Bluffs NonpdreH says
in reference to the substantial work
on the Union Pacific Railroad:
"Within the last few days we have
met number Of persons who have
traver3etf the entire length of the
line. They confirm what we have
repeatedly urged respecting the man
ner in which the track has been put
down. They express surprise at the
elegant appointments of the road,
and cannot account for the tremend-
Gus howl that was raised against it,
by interested parties, during last
winter, except that il was done for
the purpose of inducing the govern
ment to transfer the benefits of the
construction to them. We are glad
they were defeated. 1t took long
time to induce capitalists to risk
their money in the enterprise, and
the great extent of the Iowa railroads
to-day, is the result of the conf
mencement of the Pacific Railroad
before an Iowa railroad touched any
part of her western border. Certain
western papers, of doubtful patriot
ism are constantly vilifying New
England i'm no very chaste language,
hut these in Iowa who are guilty
should once for Rii remember what
New England had to do and dare in
the risk of its money in the building
Of II Pacific Railroad across the
Plains.

observes.

Herdtd. Mr.. Wilson has made ar
rangement with VIM. B. Allison to
support him to Senator Grimes
place, and in return VIM. B, Allison
will support Mr.. Wilson for election
to Senator Harlin's place. The Har-
lin ring opposes Allison in order to
maintain itself. Cooley is the club
with which Harlin hopes to beat out
