Honor TO HlGHLANp.-The srst Re.
publican meeting for II years was held
at Highland last night, ut which Capts.
John T. Jones and W. w. Likens were
the speakers. The hall was filed thew
report and tho audience one of the
most attentive and orderly ever as~
sembled in any town. The impression
has prevailed that it would be unsafe for
Republican to publicly advocate his
cause in this Democratic stronghold
that he would be in danger of outrage or
indignity. The experience of last night
demonstrates the lalsity of that impress
sion, and that great injustice has been
done to the good people of Highland by
those who entertained it. Republicans
have acted too much on the principle
that Highland was coined to her idols
and should be left alone. In future
different policy will be pursued, and be~
fore many years roll by its good results
will be manifested in material reduc,
ton Of the Democratic majority.

ment is true; for the proposed road
wonll be Of advantage to the whole
Southwestern corner Of our State:
"lt is stated that Alex Mitchell, press
jdent Of the Dnbuqne and Monroe Rail-
road has signed contracts for the con-
s.ruction Of the road to Sbullsburg, Wis
at cost OF 2O,ODO per mile, with Dn.
buque as one terminus and Milwaukee

judgment in matters of this kind Is ex-

In some localities the Democrats are
making especial efforts to defeat VIM.
Sands, candidate for Sheriff and do
not hesitate to use any means that they
think will secure votes for Mcfarland.
In this vicinity, where Mr. Sands is
known, their stories are not circulated
Here, then, he should be supported all
the more strongly, in order to Offset the
losses he may sustain elsewhere.

To tie Editor of the DuJuq,ie UeroM:

~ He LoHW % u" HHOHqHe NtdM
SIR-This little town has been filed with
commoton for few days past by the whis-
perS circulating that a fashionable American
wedding" was soon to take place, and when
yesterday three handsome carriages, with
drivers and iootmen III scarlet liycries and
white rosettes and flowers, from Halifax,
dashed through the town TO the residence OF
Mrs. Sykes, the brides aunt, the streets be-
came llned on each side with men, women
and children, anxious to see the american
wedding, y and when the bride appeared so
far rs could be judged by their countcnances,
the cXclamatons were, "iIow beautiful ~
On leaving the residence of her aunt the car
rlages proceeded to Trinity Road chapel, Hal
flax, three miles distant where the Rev Mr.
Parker, formerly from the State OF Illinois,
united John Spensley, Esq, of Mineral Point,
Wis, to Miss Mary j., youngest daughter OF
the late Robert Waller Esq, of Rockdale,
Dubuque county, in the holy bonds of matri-
mony. After many hearty wishes Of JOY and
happiness to the married couple, the party
was conducted to the vestry, where the regis
trar was in waiting, The contract was duly
signed, first by the bridegroom and bride. and
afterwards by the witnesses and the minister.
The registrar then attached his signature and
seal English law was satisfied, and tho party,
accompanied by the minister and his lady, were
permitted TO depart. Entering the carriages
they proceeded TO the "White Swan Hotel"
Halifax, where splendid wedding breakfast
bad been prepared, To which all did ample
justice. At II - p. IN. the happy pair de-
parted on the express train for London, on
their wedding tour. The bride was richly at
tired in rich silk dress-color, ashes of
roses, with long trail, and tunic OF white
SILK net all trimmed w.th deep brussels lace.
The bridal veil was attached with a wreath of
orange blossoms on top Of the head and
thrown back, reaching TO the ground, one
side OF II drawn gracefully over the shoulder
and fastened With an orange blossom on the
bosom. White Kid shoes with large, bcauti-
ful rosettes and pearl buckles on top. Gold
bracelets, brooch ard ear rings of exquisite
workmanship, giving a pleasing effect, show
ing the good taste displayed by the bride.
The bride Is widely known in Dubuque cir
cles, and While many wishes Of joy and hap
pineos will gu,h forth from the hearts Of her
many anqutiniances ard friends toward her,
they will regret her, removal from that city
and state and the loss OF her society. Mineral
Point may congratulate itself on The acqui7l
ton to it, social circle, and that Dubuque's
loss is to be her gain.

Peck has had hold of the Clerks books

The Democrat comforts fearfully this
week. 1t represents that the TRIBUNE
made IAN attack" on Orville Strong, and
from that false representation goes on to
censure the said attack as contemlti-
bic and untruthful Every reader Of
the TRIBUNE knows that we made no
''attack" on Mr.. Strnng, more than to
say he had held Office almost constantly
since attaining his majority. The DEM
ocrat says, "he never held an Office until
he was %, and nerer sought an office

for Treasurer, he has been learfully be-
lied by many Of his own party if he

Ryan unders ood he would not be n
candidate, then Mr. Strong is further
belied by many good men of bis own
party. UNDERSTANDING this to be the
situation, the Democrats simple say.so
is not sufficient proof that Mr.. Strong
never sought Office
The Democrat says, "no one can vouch
for the qualification Of Mr.. Halgrimson."
A score Of the best men in Dodge,
vile do so vouch however, aud the Dem
ocrat dares not question their honesty or
