bors and acquaintance, and IL presented
at all by his friends, his name will
probably not lack supporters. w. G.
Msley, of Fremont township, many
know for strong and an able man,
which is to know him at all. We do
not know that his name will be brought
before the Convention, but % Repre-.
sentative he would be q credit to any
county.
For County Auditor the name Of IN
opponent to E. NJ. Brink has not reach
ed US. Mr.. Brink has discharged the
duties of the Office for ono term, and hi.
nomination, and consequent election
for another, would displeass few and
injure none.
Mr.. VIM. H. VanNess, of Fairfield
township, will be strongly supported for
County Treasurer. Mr.. Van Ness long
business experience, as well as his
known ability and integrity, and his
acquaintance with the details of the
office in this county gained by commit
tee work when member of the Board
of Supervisors, will he telling arguments
in his favor.
John D. Shearer's is the only name
which as yet we have any authority for
mentioning In connection with the can
didacy for sheriff. Mr.. Shearer has dis
charged the duties cf this position for
three consecutive terms, and a. it Is
universally conceded that no one in the
past has ever made q more satisfactory
administration OF this rather onerous
and not very lucrative Office, it appears
quite doubtful il a change for the better
could be made.
For County Superintendent of Public
Schools, Mr.. C. A. Pound is put forward
by his friends, who are many. Mr..
Pound held such position a number of
years ago, and it is not guess work to say
that If selected he will make an able,
active and efficient occupant Of this
Office, the actual value of which to the
county is almost entirely dependant
upon the ability and energy of the in
cumbent. Mr.. c. w. Rollins is also
before the people for this nomination.
Mr.. r., although a comparatively new
resident Of Center township, is an old
citizen Of Cedar county. He is a grad.
uate of an Iowa college, a member OF
the Iowa bar. and his energy and abili-
ties have doubtless secured him many
friends and supporters.
For member Of the Board Of Supervis-
ors, we have no authority for announc.
ing a candidate; as is also the case with
the remaining officers for which candi
dates are to be selected. The Conven
ton will not be at loss for good names
from the beginning to the :end Of the
chapter, nor slow to show the wish o.
the majority in relation to them, il
Preliminary Meetings all over the
county are properly attended.

The New Departure"

Many OF our readers who perused the
VaIlandigham resolutions when pub
lshcd in full cannot remember the pur
port Of all of them. The following is a
fair epitome:
|. Agreement to disagree about the
past. Invitation toll Republicans to
cooperate on living issues.
,. Acceptance of the results of the
war, including the thirteenth, four
tecnth, and fifteenth amendments, and
acquiesccnce in them as no longer is
sues before the country.
3. The Democracy will obey and en-
force tue Constitution as it Is now, to
secure equality to all, without dis,inc-
ton Of race. color or condition.
4. Absolute equality OF the States.
8. Opposition to Capitalization or CON-
so'idation. Perfect independence be-
tween coordinate departments OF the
government.
6. Outside the fundamental law all
legislation is temporary and subject to
repeal or modification. there is no
absolute fnality. Congress may, or
may not, pass laws to enforce amend
ments of the Constitution.
7. Universal amnesty.
8. Payment OF public debt. Strict
honesty in administration.
8. Revenue reform.
10. Reform Of civil service.
II. Tariff for revenue only.
II. Taxation based on wealth and
population.
ID. Specie payment.
IA. No necessary conflict between
capital and labor.
Is. Opposition to further land grants.
1G. Opposition to the San Domingo
job.
II. Opposition to military and Ku.
klux bills.
Is. The Radical party of 1871, is not
the Republican party of before the
war; is only Grant party.

ern.
We believe there can be little or no
doubt about the constru ction OF this
road from this city.
1t is understood that the Prophets
town road will be pushed at once to the
east end of the bridge which crosses the
river at this point. 1t 10 also under.
stood that arrangements, for a long
term Of years, have been made with the
Chicago, Burlington 4 Quincy, for run.
ming over their line from Mendoza to
Chicago.-These arrangements also
provide for running over the line built
from Mendoza to Prophetstown. So
that the completion of the gap between
this city and Prophetstown, with rum
Mug arrangements across the bridge or
the construction of a new bridge, gives
Clinton another outlet to Chicago aud
the East.
The distance from Prophetstown to
the bridge is about eighteen miles. By
this route the distance to Chicago il
only some five miles further than ~
the North Western-an item which
will probably make no difference ia the
running time OF the two roads.
Prophetstown is nearer Clinton than it
is to any other point Oh the west bank
of the Mississippi river. The line from
Prophetstown in this direction Is being
located, and its construction has already
been provided for.
1t is expected that the new line will
he located from this point west almost
Immediately. The engineers are ex.
pected every day. AS fast rs located,
1t is the intention to cover the line with
men, and croud things with all becom-
ing speed.
We do not say absolutely and pos.
itively, that the Prohetstown road aud
the l. 8. w. are fixed facts. We be-
licve them to be so. We believe that
the almost innumerable obstacles which
from time to time have been put in the
way of these great projects, are now re-
moved or in the process Of removal.
We belive, with reasonable certainty,
that the two roads will come, and that
100 immediately.-(2infon Agc.
