Nor YET The announcement
last week that the cars of the Hi
nois Central would commence run
ming to Chicago this week via For
reston and Aurora was premature.
Everything was ready and the ar
rangement would have gone into
effect on the day appointed had not
the Northwestern Company blocked
it by an injunction. The merits
of the case are thus stated in an
Aurora special to. the Chicago
Journal:
Years ago, it is said. the old Gal
ena and Chicago Union Railway
Company and the Illinois Central
Company each obtained a charter
to build a railroad from Freeport to
Dunleith. The matter was COM
promised by the first named COM
pany yielding their right to build a
road to the Illinois Central, the lat
ter company contracting, it is alleg-
ed, that, upon having the exclusive
right to build the road between said
points, they would give to the
Chicago and Galena Road, now the
Northwestern, the freight and pass
engers coming from Dunleith to
Freeport for all time to come. The
new passenger trains over the
Chicago and Iowa Road are made
up by three companies, viz: the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy,
Illinois Central, and Chicago and
Iowa; the running of which is in
direct opposition to the Northwest
ern, the travel between Dunleith
and Dubuque being diverted to the
new route, via Forrcston and Auro-
ra. For this breach of contract the
Northwestern has enjoined the Hi
nois Central from carrying passen-
gers from points west Of Freeport,
on the Chicago and Iowa Road, and
it is probable through trains on the
Chicago and Iowa will not run
until the injunction is dissolved.

the following extract from a speech
delivered by him during the last
Presidential campaign, q very sig
nifcant premonition of his own de.
feat. Speaking Of Grant, he said:
awe are led by him who first
taught our armies to conquer in the
West, and subsequently in the East,
also. Richmond would not come to
us until we sent Grant after it, and
then it had to come. Cheers. lie

For State Treasurer.

The Hampton Recorder brings
forward new candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for State Treas
urer, in the person of Col. A. I.
Reeve, now Treasurer OF Franklin
County. We know nothing per-
sonally of Col. Reeves qualitica-
tons, but Judging from the endorse
ment of Bro. Whitney Of the Re
cordcr, in whose judgment we place
much confidence, they must be Of a
high order, and we doubt not that
Col. Reeve would, if elected, fill the
position with credit to himself and
honor to this section of the State.
The following is the article from
the Recorder:
The friends of Col. A. T. Reeve,
our popular and efficient County
Treasurer, have prevailed upon
him to allow his name to be used in
connection with the candidacy for
Treasurer of State. All candidates
heretofore announced for this posi-
ton are residents of the south half
of the State and it is deemed but
proper to have the northern part
represented by candidate for the
responsible position named. Col.
Reeve is surely the peer of any yet
proposed for this Office, and if cleo,
ted he would make prompt. oblig-
ing, honest and faithful custodian
of the public funds. His record
both as soldier and a civilian is
above reproach; in the army be was
brave and fearless defender of the
nations honor, enlisting as pri-
vate and rising to the commander
of regiment, and at home he has
repeatedly been placed in positions
of honor and trust by the votes of
the people. Afable and gentleman
ly in his manners, he readily wins
friendship and rapidly becomes pop
ular wherever known. We look for
him to speedily develop strength
among the people, and shall be sur
prised if, as the only candidate pre-
scented for the position by Northern
Iowa, he does not receive the united
and hearty support of the north
half of the State in Convention.

An advance of ten dollars per tun
OH manufactured iron, and fifteen
dollars on pigs, during the short
space of three months, at a
time when no special event has &C.
Cured to which such rise can be
directly attributed, is noteworthy
fact calculated to cause the manu-
featuring and commercial public to
do for themselves a little hard
thinking. In such an emergency,
when large enterprises are retarded
through the increased cost of an in
dispensable material, the elaborate
essays of theorists and the har-
argues of partisan speech-makers
will do little to allay the anxiety
caused by the check, in many kinds
of business, this advance has made
and is yet likely to make. The old
wordy warfare between protection
lists and free traders will rage with
renewed vigor, but the people are
at present in want of something
besides words; they want cheap
iron.
1t has been the avowed purpose
of protectionists to keep American
labor from being reduced, in the re-
spect of wages, to the level of Eu-
ropean labor. A large share of
those called protectionists have,
like ourselves, conceded the justice
and wisdom Of this policy, limiting
it's action to those industries in
which our natural advantages are
equal to those possessed by other
countries. No legislation can place
coal and iron closely in proximity,
SO as to render possible cheap iron.
Legislation may, however, place
American manufactures on . par
with foreign producers SO far as the
item Of labor is concerned. To step
beyond this limit is to create mo-

Sixth, We demand : system Of
federal taxation which shall not I'M
necessarily interfere with the indus
try Of the people, and which shall
provide means necessary to pay the
expenses of the government econo-
mically administered; the pensions,
interest on the public debt, and
moderate annual reduction Of the
principal thereof; and recognizing
that there are in our midst honest
but irreconcilable differences of
opinion in reference to the respec-
tive systems of protection and free
trade, we remit the discussion of
the subject to the people in their
congressional districts, and the de-
cision of Congress thereon to be
wholly free Of executive interference
or dictation.
Seventh, We therefore regard
through reform to the civil service,
one of the most pressing necessities
ofthe hour, land that honesty, capacity
and fidelity constitute the only valid
claims to public employment, and
the offices of the government cease
to be q matter of arbitrary fayOrit-
ism and patronage, and that public
station shall become again post of
honor. To this end it imperatively
required that no President shall be
candidate for reelection.
Eighth, The public credit must
be sacredly maintained, and we de-
nounce reputation of every form
and guise. :
Ninth, The speedy return to spe-
Gle payment is demanded, alike by
the highest consideration of COM
mercial morality and honest gov
eminent.
Tenth, We remember with graft
tude the heroism of the soldiers and
sailors to the Republic, and no act
of ours shall ever detract from their
justly earned fame or full rewards
for their patriotism.
Eleventh, We are opposed to all
further grants of lands to railroads
or other corporations; the public
domain should be held sacred to ac-
tual settlers.
Twelfth, We hold that it is the
duty of the government in its inter-
course with foreign nations upon
terms of friendship and peace by
treating with all on fair and equal
terms, regarding it alike dishonor-
able either to demand what is not
right, or to submit to what is
wrong.
Thirteenth, For the promotion
and success of the several principles,
and the support Of the candidates
nominated by this convention, we
invite and cordially welcome the
cooperation of all patriotic citizens
without regard to previous political
affiliations.

No candidate for pablo position
was ever more freqnently or with
moro pertinency and effectiveness
quoted against himself. than will
have been Horace Greeley before
the close Of the present campaign.
His overweening thirst for office
has placed him so distinctly in OPP
position to his own record and for
mer unbiased opinions, that the
most efficient weapon for his over
throw will be furnished from the
armory of his own brain and pen.
Contrast, for instance, the following
estimate of Grants administration
from the New York Tribune, with
the late uttcrances Of the same pa
per on the same subject, and the
preamble adopted at Cincinnati,
which Horace Greeley endorses by
his candidacy:
War clouds have loomed on the
horizon, yet peace with foreign ma
tians and with Indian tribes has
been happily preserved. The taxes
have been largely reduced, yet two
hundred millions of the national
debt have been paid off and cancel
ed, though we are paying one hum
dred and twenty millions per an
nun for interest and thirty millions
per annum for pensions to the wild
ows and orphans of our great strug-
gle. We doubt whether any Gov
eminent ever before devoted so
large proportion Of its annual in
come to the payment of debt. tie
misunderstdaads human nature acho
.fancies that these facts aciH not tell
IN q Presidential contest.
We would fain believe Mr.. Gree
ley honest in his later opinions, but
if we do it must be at the expense
of his consistency and good sense.
