North Iowa times. [volume] (McGregor, Iowa) 1867-current, 1869-06-02


GEO. GERNoN Of the Walter Atwood
Machine Co., of Madison Wisconsin, and
that terrible De Mon Of the Tangle Nc
Cracker Oyster Society Of Milwaukee,
were here last week and enjoyed them-
selves a. all respectable persons do in our
TINES Office. We like "Tangle" 6rst-rate.
Don't worship De Mon particularly,
because he once attempted to bleed our
thumbs with "patent clothes pin" D. NJ.
ispretty good, but too full of devilment for
b Minister or an Editor !......Mr. Clemens
Schwai;cr, p. NJ. of Gutenberg, tells us
IF raftrriot ut that City on Friday msrn-
ing, May 2lst. One man-name unknown
stabbed two of his comrades. Doctor
REDExAN dressed the wounds. The
wicked one was tried before Esq. Jno. P.
Kriebs, fined $1,000, and, for want Of
bail, was sent to the Garnavillo lookup
Of Clayton County. The wounded ones
possibly as much to blame in the quarrel,
as the jail-bird-were cared fer by the
raft crew. There is, occasionally, a viola
ton of order in this city that must be
looked after. Marshal BERGMAN cannot
be trampled on very much. If man
wants to play trough" he must expect
rough treatment. We have seen several
T. C's in our city lately late at night,
acting the "dont care d." and talk
ing as if the whole world belonged to
them. Our shooting business is usually
among pigeons, squirrels, quails, prairie
chickens, etc., but we respectfully request
that "roughs' will pass US in respectful
manner on the street. This is simply
advice.
Gutenberg, subscribed in one day,
$4,000 for the River Road. Let us have
the road, but no assessment to make it,.
......It will be seen in another column that.
Plus the TX. has privileged the catholics
of Europe, Asia, Africa, and America, to
do pretty much as they please for several
months. The proclamation of the old
gentleman is called plenary indulgence.
1t is impossible for us to resist the inoli-
nation to say that neither Prince, Priest,
Potentate, Pope, or any other man shall
tell us what we may or what we may not
do, in the way of behaviour. If Goo is
GOD, we will try to be "good boy" but
no TheoloSic observances will ever control
our judgment. Who gave mortal, like
the writer, power to manage the bal>
ance of mankind
+. p. Clarke writes us from Oskaloosa,
Iowa, May %, and says-everything is al
mighty dull /; no business of any cohse>
quence doing, no fun, no schnapps, no
anything but silence in business and politi-
cal negro-worshipping for ofice......GEo.
KIDDE-, well~known and long.known
resident of McGregor, volunteer in Co.
"K'' of the First Iowa Cavalry, died re.
Gently in Chicago. His body was brought
to McGregor for burial. Our acquaintance
with GEORGE began in so. He was we'll.
informed, of good disposition, but not
without faults, nor are any of US in this
strange world. lie has gone to his last
home. Farewell !........Do not fail to read
the full column card Of Mr.. WILEY. JAMES
is model merchant, we'll acquainted with
the business in which he is engaged, and
perhaps the best dealer in linens and fine
imported goods that McGresor can fur
nish. He is one-price man his assis-
tants are very accommodating to customers,
while they are at the same time faithful to
the interests of the house.. John B..
FkEsE died at Gutenberg, on Tuesday,
May 25th, 1869. lie was born in Ger
many, in November, 1903. The deceased
was taken of by dropsy: he was the
father of B. II. Frese and &. Henry Frese,
of this city.
It pleases US to see that Mr.. II. G.
BARNARD, eldest son Of our highly
esteemed friends Mr.. and Mrs. b. of this
city, is "down" for Yale College ''Com'
mencement' Grafton on the subject Of
, Railroads and the Government" We
are not afraid to guarantee brilliant ad'
Dress. ....The telegraph from Europe, al
an expense of 500, says 1.-THE Marquis o.
Lansdowne lost very valuable coach dos
by the blunder Of his body -servant who
was careless in handling fire arms" What
dreadful news to US poor people! Oh
dear !......We are about to get up q Pr
Mic in June that will take National
Garnavillo, Monona, Postville, Luana, Nc
Greger, NorthMcgregor, or any other towr
in its embrace. Two boats can be got i
necessary. A short trip is advisable
there is less danger to the children. Gu
creed is the utmost liberality to all creed
and political opinions. The 4NcGreyor cal
carry 500 persons or 500 just as the littl
folks, parents and teachers choose to I'll
the space. Correspondence is insitet
from the points named. We would lik
to see q jolly good time among the olde
ones who are sectarianly afraid Of eacl
other. Pile your prejudices up in heal
and you'll find less to growl about tina,
you now do. Let US begin to agitate tn
Pic Mic question. Wont you?
A campmeeting will begin near Frank
willie about the 9Th Of July......D avit
Drummond, jr., one OF the best of |

McGregor can boast, long in the emplo.
of French & Richmond, has decided t
locate at Mason City, or Nora Spring
