NEw-NoRK. Friday. Feb II. 1879
There is much dissatisfaction among tax
payers Eew-fcrscy about the Hudson County
Boulevards These roads from north south begin
ming aud ending nowhere. whereas roads are needed
which run from west There are suitable ave-
leading any nj the ferries Consequently 1t is
difficult, aud consumes tune. TO get from
ferries the ridges Of Hudson County than TO travel
by ra to places fifteen and twenty miles IN the interior.
Taxation in Bergen aud Hudson City is about equal to
what 1t is in NewYork the se being nearly HIGH and
the tax valuation greater In proportion 10 the actual
market prices N IS computed that the BOulevards
constructing surveyed will cost SSOOO0OO. The cost
of the preliminary surveys alone has been $4,000.

experience considerable grief before
he is through with it. 1t is a sig
nificant fact that nearly every bniid-
ing burned of late, has had quite a
heavy insurance on it. The sum
Der of fires for,the year stands at
forty-onc, we believe Although
the year is nearly closed there is
bare possibility that the number
may yet reach an average Of one
per week.
Our railway corporations arc in
truly pitiable condition. We pre-
sumo few more land grants, rights
Of way and discriminating tariffs
will be necessary to put them on a
substantial basis. AS a sample, we
may mention that our Dubuque and
Sioux City road last week declared
a semi-annual divident Of 81 per
cent. to its stockholders. This
looks like bankruptcy and utter di-
lapidation, dosen't it?
The bill of amuscments for the
past few weeks has been full to the
margin. Miss Adelaide Phillips,
the Peak Family, Booths Theatri-
Gals, the Martina Troupe, besides
niger shows, and various other
home affairs, have helped to cheer
and enlivcn our townsmcn o nights.
Many improvements are making
in different portions of the city.
Quite a number Of strips of new
sidewalk have been laid during the
fall, and the sites Of buildings which
have been destroyed by fire, arc be-
ing occupied by fine new brick
buildings, some of which have been
nearly finished in the face Of old
Winter and his snowlocks.

Strategy.

The Tammany Democracy, who
own Gov. Hoffman, are playing a
pretty sharp game to secure his
nomination for the Presidency.
Aware that the early and continued
mention Of his name in that conncc-
ton will do him more harm than
good, they now, with a great show
of magnanimity, withdraw him from
the field and apparently give in
their adhesion to Hendricks, of
Indiana. BY this stale trick they
hope to percipitate and embitter a
contest between the friends of Hen
bricks and Pendlcton, in which both
shall be ctfcctually disabled, and
the Democracy of the West ire
concilably set by the ears. Hof-
man in the meantime being counted
out Of the contest, is saved from
damaging assaults on his character
and record, and gains much good
will for his magnanimity. The next
move in the plot will at once sug-
gcst itself. The warning factions
exhausted and demoralized, Hof-
man will step in and take the nomi-
nation without serious resistance.
This is the outlines of the plot. 1t
is not novel or complicated, but it
would be presumptuous to say that
in the skillful hands of Tammany
it will not succeed.

An Honest Democrat.

The following shows that honor
and honesty has not utterly departed
from the race Of professional poll
ticians:
Through a printers error, $50
votes intended for Michael Donohue,
a Republican candidate for State
Senator in Illinois, were cast in one
county for Patrick Donohuc, and
his Democratic opponent, William
II. North, was consequently elected
by 223 plurality. The certificate of
election was awarded to Mr.. North,
but he has written letter in which
he saws that rs he is fully satisfied
that it was the intention OF the CSC
voters in Moultrie county to vote
for Michael Donohue, he cannot
honorably accept the certificate OF
election.

The 0ovornorship.

The agitation of the question of
who shall be next Governor of Iowa
is already begun. 1t has proceed
ed no farther yet than the 'mcntion"
of a score or more of names Of gen
tlcmcn all competent and worthy.
The consideration of claims and
qualifications will follow in due sea-
son. The State Register mentions
the following gentlemen as suggest
ed by partial friends in that connec-
ton: Gov. Merrill, Caleb Baldwin
and Gen. G.. NJ. Dodge, of c. Bluffs;
John A. Elliott, Of Mitchell; G. G..
Carpenter, of Webster; Ed Wright,
of Cedar; Hiram Price, of Scott; B.
f. Cue, of Fort Dodge; c. w. Sla-
gle, of Jefferson; NJ. V. Burdick, of
Winneshiek; J. b. Grinncll, of
Poweshiek; and John Scott, of Sto-
ry.
In addition to the names mention
ed by the Register those of Henry
O'Connor, John A. Kasson, WIN. b.
Allison, b. F. Allen, of Des Moincs;
II. G. Bulls, Of Winneshiek, and
probably others equally deserving
and capable have been suggested.
The indications are that the canvass
will be conducted in a friendly and
courteous spirit.

The True Position.

The Dubuque Times places the
question of the repeal or the rctcn-
ton of the Tcnurc-of-O Office Act in
it's true light, in the following para
graph III reply to the suggestion OF
an exchange, that sach repeal would
be a fitting expression of the conf
dence Of the country in President
Grant:
'Either the Tenure-of-Ofiice bill
ought never to have been passed at
all, or it should be kept on the stat
ute book, now that it is there. TO
say that laws ought to be passed or
repealed according to the degree of
confidence which Congress has in
the President, is simply to say that
legislation should spring in parti-
san faith and be based upon parti-
san needs. If the constitution con-
tempiatcd that the Senate Of the
United States should have voice
in removals from Office rs we'll as OF
Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1870-12-23

appointments to Office, as was con-
tended by the men who clamorcd
for the Tenure-of.O Office law, then
the Senate should have that voice
.und erP resident Grant and his sue
cessors, as well as. under. Andrew
johnson. IF this power is in the
Senate, by,svirtue Of Constitutional
provision, it has no authority to del
egatc it, and no right to avoid its
exercise. If there is no such pow
err given to it, it ought not to at
tempt to exercise it under Andrew
Johnson, or Gen. Grant, or any 9th
er President"

took up the gun to shoot the buck,
but fearing she would kill one of
the dogs, laid the weapon aside, and
Selling IN axe, went to the assist
ancc of the dogs. As she was aim
ing a blow at the cnragcd animal,
it sprang at her, knocking her down,
and commenced stamping her in
the breast. The dogs seized the
buck and dragged it away from
Mrs. Collins, but not until she was
severely injured from its hoofs.
Nothing daunted, the heroic lady
renewed her attack upon the in
furiated buck with the axe, but was
again knocked down by it, and
stamped more severely that before.
The dogs nj once went to her rescue,
and succeeded in getting the animal
away from her. Mrs. Collins, in
the excitement, not knowing the ex-
tent of her injuries, repeated the
assault upon the buck, and this time
succeeded in dispatching him. 1t
was a very large deer. and, upon
inspection, proved to have had one
of its hind legs previously broken.
1t is seldom that we hear Of Il
woman displaying such courage as
did Mrs. Collins in the struggle, and
it is the greatest wonder that the
heoric lady was not killed. We
understand Mrs. Collins injuries
were discovered to be of such a
serious nature that it was thought
advisable to call a physician.
