A LAuGHABLE BIT PROVOKING MIsApyEx-
TuRE OF TWO NEW BRIDEGRooMs AND THEIR
BRlDEs.-On Tuesday, of last week, two couple,
in the heyday of youth, were married in Co.
lumbia township, the parties residing some
two or three miles south Of Tama City. The
lovely brides were twin sisters, and very
tastefully were they arrayed. 1t is said
though We vouch not for the truth of it, that
The newly married, fearing a chariuari, con-
cluded to spend "Fiyst Night at Chelsea or
Belle PLANE. In accordance with this plan,
they took the o'clock train going East. On
arriving at Chelsea the girls got of and the
boys went on to Belle Plaine, with the inten-
tim Of returning in the express at half past
nine. They went to Belle PLANE that the
young people Of Chelsea might not know that
there were in town, two new brdegrooms
with their brides, and 9, escape charir1ri
there. After the bridcgrooms had arrived at
Belle Plaine they lssvned that the express did
not stop at Chelsea, and when that train
started ont at half past nine the boys were
not on it, so the bridegrooms spent the night
at Belle Plaine, and the brides at Chelsea
Of the later it may be appropriately said
Lovely in single life,
In marriage they were not divided.

IT is stated that Governor Chamberlain will
appoint Democrat on the Paper Credit Com
mission and that Hon. f. Wilder Farley will
be the man. Some weeks ago. without any
means ofprophesying concerning the matter,
we expressed the opinion that Gov. Cham
berlain would make appointments satisfacto-
~ to that large portion of the people, ire
spective of party. who desire that this iniqui-
ty shall be exposed. The high sense Of hon
or which the Governor possesses must have
been shocked by the revelations already
made, and we cannot doubt that he will use
the power of his Office towards removal of
this scandalous stain upon the fame of the
State. 1t is due to the Democratic party,
representing nearly one half Of the voters OF
the State, that it be represented upon the
Commission. Mr.. Farley is an honest man,
who will not be accessible to the blandish-
ments or brides of the robbers He is an
able man, who will understand lust where
and how to probe for the root OF this evil
business. And he is q fearless man, who
cannot be inundated in the discharge of his
duties. If appointed, as We hope he may be,
the democracy will be well represented on
the Committee

dispatches have brought us the following
