tended it has far surpassed the most sanguine
hopes of the original projectors.

ceipts and expenditures of the association
since its organization:

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
Cedar COUNTY SQUIB.

In consequence of the many COM
plants about the ADVERTISER, we the
undersigned will start q paper with the
above title, the first number to be
(probably), issued directly after the
nominations are made. The paper will
be Republican in politics SO long as the
party retain power in the county. After
that we shall be governed by circum
stances. We want office bad, and we
mean to have it. We shall control the
nominations, and see to it that all who
favor us will get nibble ut the public
crib; while all who oppose us are bound
to 60 under. We shall get all the public
printing and most Of the advertising
patronage. We have already selected the
candidates for the support of the sover
eigns OF the county, and expect every
one to support them. Hereafter we in.
tend to do away with the plan of prima
ry meetings and conventions, and will
see to it that list If the candidates to
be supported is published in the SQU1B
in season, so that all the sovereigns will
have to do will be to walk up to the
polls and vote. Our motto is "1ut
Caesar, AIT nihii;." which means Hurrah
for our side. We trust the high position
to which the people Of the county has
raised us from obscurity will he suffi-
cient guaranty that We shall secure the
object sought, and continue to receive
the emoiuments of office as our inalien-
able right J. J. PUFF, r,;.a

Many, too, will be slow to forget how
uselessly such a course has been urged
upon tho Northwestern in years pas;
when all the representations which
parties from hereabou could make were
hardly sufficient to obtain q respectful
hearing.

but both can not fail to see the advan-
tages which long and Independent line

ALL RIGHT.-The West Liberty
Enterprise, in regard to the statements
made by it some time since concerning
the ADVERTISER, and which have been
the subject of a number of squibs, pro
and con, since, virtually says in its last
issue, in a long article which would be
inserted here if its general interest to
our readers was half as great as its pith
and point, that "the boy lied' i. e.,
it had been inisinformed. Now while
we have had no bad blood about the
matter from first to last, we will say
that until reading the article referred to
we supposed the Enterprise man had
been gratifying his love for "good
drive" Oh neighbor by himself manu-
featuring a tall oak from a small acorn,
whereas we are now convinced that he
really believed what he said when he
said it. And thus endeth the chapter,
We hope and believe.

FAST AND Loose. - A festive
young knight of the razor, named
Sam. PARCEL, was arrested last
Wednesday at Rome upon charge of
seduction. PARCEL, it seems. has until
lately followed the tousorial profession
at Clarence, and there it was that lie en-
gagged the affections Of a young lady,
and as is alleged, under promise Of mar
riage made himself liable TO the charge
as above. Upon being pressed to fulfil
his promise, he this spring removed his
shop to Rome in Jones Co., where he
was arrested by constable Vanderpool at
the instance of Wolf and Landt, Attor
neys for the prosecution. He was
brought down here Wednesday evening
to secure counsel, aud then taken to
Clarence, where the preliminary exam
ination was to be held on Thursday
morning. But on Thursday morning
there was no prisoner at the bar. In
some way that is as yet hardly satisfac
torily explained, he slipped away from
the officer having him in charge
Wednesday night, and got offon pass
ing train.
We understand that another young
man is in Punishment from home and
friends in consequence Of late and
partial participation in this matter, he
having allowed himself to he used in an
attempt to shield the guilty party by
complications which it was ignorantly
supposed would prove fatal to a prose

ALMOST LAW SUIT.-That remark
able plug hat which has so long rejoiced
in a jaunty position above the biggest
mouth in Iowa, on Tuesday, came near
being the unconscious cause of legal
investie alton. A couple of Ku Klux,
without the fear Of No. 13s before their
eyes, obtained p ossession of the old hat
in the temporary absence of the owner,
and made target of it for revolver prac-
tice, much to the damage Of its {once)
silky surface and the danger OF its
Inhabitants.
Phansy the Pheelinks of Lymus
That hat was his pride, and his wrath
was terrible to witness. Not loud Gas
thunder, quite) but deep he swore the
Vengeance Of the law; and the tide Of his
righteous indignation was only stayed
by rolling into its current a newer,
brighter, better hat Of the genus plug
than the one which had been wantonly
perforated.
