dered it very unfit document to be read il
the gushing and devoted Philadelphia Con
vention. What does he mean when he says
"Past experience may guide me in avoiding
mistakes inevitable with novices in all pro-
LESSONS and all occupation" No matter
whether they we're inevitable or not, we have
noticed that whenever any of these mistakes
have been mentioned, all the Grant news

and nothing shorter. What could the

Wilson, as printed in Administration

The Dubuque Telegraph tDemoratic)
says Iowa is wheeling into she line of Gree
ley, and, in proof that the Philadelphia
convention has not hsruonized the party,
it calls attention 20 the fact,
That the Republican organization OF our
neighbor county of Clayton is openly and
avowedly for Greeley that State Senator
Newell, Of the same county, is for Greeley
that every Republican lawyer but one, and
he doubtful, is for Greeley, and that the
msjority of the Republican party Of Clayton
county is for Greeley and to this state
ment we challenge contradiction.

One reason Why Dirty Work Logan"
finally concluded to jabber on Grants side
is doubtless because he could be relatively
"a bigger man" on that side than on the
other. Asa Grant shrieker, he could be
more prominent snd receive more Difference

pect would be the case If his associates were
of the party which opposes Grant.

TIE MORMON STATE MOVEMENT is pain
full evidence of labor to no purpose. With
much flourish and display the leaders of the
Saints, having formed constitution framing
convention, went on Tuesday last through the
form of State election. The object OF all
this plainly is to give the control of the present
Territory once more into the hands Of the
Mormon priesthood. As the greater number
of them are under indictment for murder or
lewdness, this consummation is all the more
devoutly to be wished. But the stain OF
polygamy still darkens their record, and until
that is removed they can expect no relief in
regard to State government. IL requires
the action OF Congress TO create n new State,
and the Congress has not assembled yet which
would dare to clothc the indeccncy aud bar
barism of polygamy With State rights,
