transfer As allegiance Eas ng neeu accept
"a ny G,-opesn na,ens, it is the aaty of
our Government TO guard with Jealous care
the rights OF our adopted citizens against
he assumption Of unauthorized claims by
their former governments, and we urge
continual and careful encouragement and
protection to voluntary Immigration.
~ Ihe franking privilege ought TO be
abolished, and the way prepared for
speedy reduction in the rates Of postage.
~. Among the questions which press
for attention is that which concerns the re-
la,ions Of capital and labor. and the Repub-
lican party recognize the duty Of % shap-
ing legislation rs to secure full protection
and the amplest field for capital. and for
labor, the creator Of capital, the largest OPP
portdnities and just share Of mutual prof
its of these two great servants OF civiliza~
ton.
-. We hold that Congress nd the Pres
ident have only fulfilled an imperative duty
in their measures for the suppression of
violent and reasonable organizations in
certain lately rcbellious regions, and for
the protection Of the ballot box and, there
fore, they ore entitled to the thanks Of the
nation.
10. We denounce the reputation Of the
public debt in any form or disguise, as q
national crime. We witness with pr'do the
reduction Of the principal Of the debt, and
Of the rates Of interest upon the balance,
and confidently expect that our excellent
national currency will be perfected by .
speedy resumption Of specie payments.
A.. The Republican party is mindful Of
its obligations to the loyal women Of Amer
lea for tlleir noble devotion TO the cause OF
freedom their admission to wider fields OF
usefulness is received with satisfaction, and
the honest donna nds, Of any class Of citizens
for additional rights should be treated with
respectful consideration.
10. We heartily approve Of the action OF
Congress in extending amnesty to those
| lately in rebellion, and rejoice in tho
growth of peace and frnternal feeling
| throughout the land.
l6. The Republican party propose to re-
| .,cct the rights reserved BY the people to
| themselves as carefully as the powers dele
| gated by them to the State and to the FEEDER
| al Government. 1t disapproves Of the re.
sort TO unconstitutional laws for the purpose
! of removing evils by interference with the
| rights not surrendered by the people &c
| either the State or National Government.
| Il. 1t is tie duty Of the General Govern
ment to adopt such measures as will tend tt
encourage American commerce aud ship
building.
Is. We believe that the modest patriot
ism, the earnest purpose, sound judgment
practical wisdom, incorruptible integrity
and illustrious services Of Ulysses S
Grant have commended him 10 the hearts 0
the American people, and, with him at ou1
head, we start to-day on new march Il
victory.
Tama County Republican. (Toledo, Tama County, Iowa) 1867-1872, 1872-08-15

The initial number of the Liberal
contains a hall column OF general
charges against Hon. James Wilson,
in respect to various matters, and IL
dicates purpose OF raking over ev-
e.y event OF his political and person
al history, hoping to FIND live coal
that can oe blown INTO aamc. The
crowded state OF our columns, to-day,
allows us to refer to but one matter
and that is the Capt. tol Board OF Com
,nissioners. We hereby remind the
Liberal that the proprietors eft the Or
ford Stone Qua.ries desired, even be-.
tore his selection, that Mr.. Finkbine,
OF Johnston County, should have
place on the Board, and so advised
Mr.. Wilson. 1t was at the instance
of Mr.. Helm that he supported Mr..
Finkbinc. The other member OF the
Board from Johnston county, Peter
A. Dey, was selected by the Demo.
cratic caucus, which was held at the
same time that the Republican caucus,
which nominated Mr.. Finkbine, was
held. Is MT the Liberal rather YER
dant in attributing to Mr.. Wilson a
controlling influence over tho Demo
cratic caucus
In view of several personal thrusts,
IN the last Liberal, arc we justified in
looking for a continuation and IN
tcnslfcation of personal defamation,

notice is response

The result Of the North Carolina

The result Of the North Carolina
election is now we'll known. The
Republican State ticket will have
shout 1900 majority, possibly 1900.
The Legislature will be strongly

are now crying Grand in voting and

Gen. Dodge, in his opening speech
TO the Democratic State Convention,
says that 1.-THE people Of che South
are stretching out manacled hands
that the letters be stricken from their
limbs." There IS no man Of lawful

SOUTH CAROLINA CLuB.-At the last

bia, it was announced that the President,

adopted the following resolutions:
Resolved, That by his ability, energy,
courtesy and high character, Major Gary

which such an institution, thus organ
lied, must accomplish and whilst we
regret his retirement, we shall be graft
fled always to regard him as valued
and distinguished member.

Why JEFFERSON DIED PooR.-It is
related Of Jefferson that he might
have been q rich and not a poor man,
as he was, but for the multitude of ad-
miring visitors who thronged Monti.
cello from years end to years end,
aud literally ate him out of house and
home. As many as fifty strangers
8, ,metimes swarmed in upon him in
single afternoon. They came on horse
back and in carriages, and dozens Of
them stayed all night, and many of
them stayed for days and even weeks
No other man of whom we have any
record was ever so overrun with visi-
tors for so long q period. They came
from all lands and belonged to almost
every rank in life. It was not posi-
BILE to turn them away. Jefferson had
to stand the punishment, and hestood
it bravely, and with at least outward
serenity of spirit, although hisinward
struggles were terrible. Ho finally
sold bis library, perhaps the best then
in America, and the choicest posses
sion he had on earth. He also sold
some of his land. A few friends, and
even the Legislatures of few States,
tried to help him. But these efforts
were of no avail. His affairs grow
worse and worse. He finally petit
toned the Legislature of Virginia for
permission to dispose of his estates by
lottery; but before tho act was passed
he died, and bis estate was sold at
auction by his creditors, and his heirs
were turned from their ancestral door
forever" ~

MY DREAM.

A beautiful vision oft comes to me-
When the work of the day is done,
When my heart throws off its weight of care
And sit in my room alone;
II dream of home where no shadows fall,
Nor language of strife is heard
Where anger and bitterness enter not,
But love breathes in thought and in word.
AS sit in that beautiful home
Watching the sunset glow,
hear a step on the graveled walk,
A step have learned to know.
One stands on the threshold, whose tender low
Makes the world all bright to me"
Whose heart keeps the VOW which his lips hay,
made,
Ny own, and mine only to be-
But waken, alasl it was only dream,
Like the fancies used to weave,
In those far off days Of the happy past,
Ere my heart had learned to grieve;
Well [ know the face, in dreams behold
Though 1 have not seen, it seems for years
have heard that voice and its cherished tones
Which are the sweetest of earth to my ears.
But I'm a sad and lonely woman now
No love words are breathed in my ears
Lifes lessons TO me have been sternly taught
In WEAKNESS, pain and in tears.
But love to sit in the twilight hour
While the shadows around me fall,
And dream of that beautiful sunny home
And the love that's dearer than ALL

RIanton's Impudelca.

The World, in slashing article on the
clique, who set up to be the only Simon-pu
and the guardians Of Democratic honor, after
exposing their preposterous pretensions and
shameless effrontery, thus concludes:
Blanton Duncan boiling convention, wheth-
er so intended or not is a movement in Grant s
interest; and so far as it has any success, it will
rebound to Grants advantage. Every Demo
crat in the country Of any eminence or influence
supports the Baltimore nominations. They
were made by regularly constituted conven-
ton of the party. They are supported by every
Democratic member of Congress, every Demo
cratic Senator, and every Democratic State
Governor. Who is this ex-Coniederate Lieu
tenant Colonel, who never smelt gunpowder and
never was known as Democrat, that he should
call boiling convention to mutiny against the
deliberate judgment and decision of the Demo
cratic organization, and the judgment Of all its
recognized and trusted leaders?

Occasionally some dyspeptc fellow gets dis
gusted with the course of newspaper that fails
to come up to the standard Of excellence he has
marked out for it, and straightWay the indignant
individual writes letter to the tabooed journal,
sternly demanding it's publisher Immediately to
"stop his paper" This action is intended as
a pointed rebuke to the publisher aforesaid, and
is usually accompanied with an air clearly in
dioating that the injured party has full and
complete satisfaction for the wrongs heaped up
on him as subscriber. The New York Tribune
has lately been compelled to peruse several
epistle of this character, but as yet We have not
discovered that they have made any percepti-
with which its editors @ are advocating @ the LIB, Lib
eral cause. The paper still looks healthy in a
business point Of view, and having received
20,233 mail subscribers in the months of June
and July, as against S467 in the same months
last year, there is every reason to believe that
the withdrawal Of three or four Radical broth
ers from the list will not materially damage the
receipts Of the concern, or force it into immedi-
ate liuuidation

bride thrust her head out Of the car window as
for a moment or two, suddenly jerked her head
back with quick exclamation, and buried her
face in her hands. Her loving, frightened hus-
band sought to learn the cause of her dismay,
and offered feeble consolation: "What was it,

WEALTH OF RELIGIOUS DENoMINAT1oNs.-
According to the census for 1870 the Methodists
OF the United States are the richest of the re-
nearly SO, 100000. The Roman Catholics are
ten millions behind the Methodists in worldly
possessions. The Presbyterians own churches
worth about forty-eight millions and half; the
Baptists scarcely claim more than forty-one
millions and half of dollars. The Episcopa-
lians, supposed to be in cities among the rich
est of the sects, own in church property but lit
tie more than thirty-six millions and a half, al
though they are considerably richer than the
Congregationalists, and have more than two
dollars for one of the Lutherans.

Young men who will sit up late on Saturday
nights playing cards, and go to church next
morning with ''full deck" in their pockets,
