Force of Character from n Stand.
uninf.

HptD
The Sioux City Times which has
just tweedled its ghostly form into
the ghostly Democratic party, has
this to say upon the Senatorial ques.
ton |:
Great credit is due the friends of
Allison for the able manner in which
''they pulled the wool" :over the
eyes of the Harlanites. In the recent
elections throughout Northwestern
Iowa, they. went into the different
County Conventions with their can.
didates, and while they with their
force of character and superior activ-
ity did all the neutrality-suspicious.
emily as Harlanites-their reserve
candidates were all secretly pledged
to the Allison alliance. In this way
the legislative representatives in
nearly every county in Northwest
ern Iowa, although supposed by the
Harlan crowd TO be in favor of their
candidate, have, since the fall cleo
tons, developed into out-and-out
Allison ites.n
That speaks we'll for the Allison
party in Northwestern Iowa, surely.
Men of ''force of character playing
the hypocrite with scoundreily adroit-
ness Men of "force of character,''
pulling the wool" over the eyes of
people in an able manner! Men of
character" with a cause SO weak
that they felt constrained to resort
to deception to circumvent the sup
posed will of the people!
If it can be proved that Mr.. Ali.
son has obtained any considerable
strength in this way, the fact of it
self should defeat Mr.. Allison for the
United States Sanate, or for any
position whatever.
But this is an imputation against
the men who have been elected to
the Legislature from Northwestern
Iowa that we feel justified in pro.
nouncing false. Some of these men
are known to be favorable to the
election of Mr.. Harlan, and some OF
them are known to be friendly to
Mr.. Allison-we include them all

D%estitution 10 reported in the far
West. The Abilene (Kan.) Chronicle
has been informed by Mr.. Patrick
Hand, who has just returned from a
trip up the Solomon valley to the
Colorado.and Nebraska line, that the
new settlers have severely suffered
from the cold and storms. Mr.. Hand
says that the immigration into the
Solomon valley is unprecedented
Many families arrived just before the
last storm, and the suffering among
them is terrible. Having no houses,
they are compelled to live in their
knowing wagons" aud the suffering
among the women and children par.
ticularly, is very severe To add to
the hardship of the situation, the
people are almost entirely destitute
of food-many of them having scarce
ly tasted of q mouthful of bread since
the valley. They are try,
ing to subsist mainly upon such
game as they may be able to secure.
This situation of affairs exists from
Mitchell county northward and
Aorthwestward, up both sides of the

The Local Editor.
The exchange gets off the following
on 81 local editor

The exchange gets Off the following
on a local editor !:
The local editor is the bond slave
of affliction. His days are many ard
full of trouble. He Is the vic
tim of popular ~failacies,
The ignorant believe that the land
scape of his existence is diversified
by rivulets of milk and honey; the
intelligent that he has but one shirt,
and habitually retires by the light OF
q tallow candle stuck in q gin bottle.
The former, in their blind delusion,
look upon him as q companion OF
! Princes, o guide and a philosopher to
the affiuent amputator of coupons ;
the latter are convinced that he sub
sists mainly upon charity, with a
weakness for broken victuals, and
would constitute a strong candidate
for a vacancy in the Aims House.
Between these two opinions his char
acter and social status are constantly
vibrating, and as there is usually q
strong preponderance in favor of the
