4 Good Word For Local. Pa

The New York Times says: "You
might nearly as well forget your church
cs, your academies and school houses
as to forget your local paper. 1t speaks
to ten times the audience that your
local minister does. 1t is read eagerly
each week from beginning to end. 1t
reaches you all, and if it has q lower
spirit and less wisdom than sermon,
it has thousand times better chance
at you. Laying, as it docs, on every
table, in almost every house, you owe
it to yourselves to rally literally to its
support, and exact from it as able,
heightened character as you do from
any educator in your midst. 1t is in
no sense beneath notice and care for
it is your representative. Indeed, in
it's character it is the consumation Ct
the Importance, interest and welfare of
you all. It is the aggregate of your
own consequence, and you cannot ig-
more it without miserably depreciating

We furnish our readers with the Pres
idcot's message in suprement form, and
invite tloir attention to its plain,
straight forward statements of the con-
dition of the country. 1t is chiefly a
condensation Of the department reports,
but none the less important for that.
There are some things omitted in it
that we had hoped to find among its
recommendations, that perhaps the Presi
dent thought best to present in his in
augural, as II new congress will then be
ready to take The place of the present.
We shall not take issue or make COM
mendation of any of it's suggestions this
week, for want Of space, and because,
perhaps it is best that hepeople should
read it unbiased and form their opin-
ions from the document itself. Such
is the custom among the people, what
ever the press may say, they being
quite as able to judge for themselves
as the press is for itself.

Iowa Liquor Law

DIES MONIES, Nov 30.-An important
liquor case was decided in the District
court of this county, under the law
passed in 1855, and acts amendatory,
the act by which the wife Of a man in
jured by using intoxicating liquors
was empowered to sue the vendor Of
the spirits and recover from him dam
ages, both actual and exemplary. The
suit was brought by Mrs. A. Priest
ly against Joseph HERB, Of this city,
for damages Of $5, 600 for selling in
toxicating liquors to plaintiffs husband.
The case is the first decided under the
law. 1t was argued by able counsel
on both sides. The jury awarded the

Iiuiug Of the air passages, and the
superyention of just such an epidemic
as that which now prevails not only
among the horses where this atmosphere
ic phenomenon occurred, but among
human beings as well, who were expos
cd. unprotected, to it's influence.
Science, with the aid of the tele-
graph forecasts the weather, and en-
ables man to prepare for coming storms.
Why may it not shadow the pestilence
that communities may thwart its APP
proach by being ready for it When
the epidemic was little cloud down at
Toronto, the telegraph notified the
world of the fact. Where then was
science that it did prepare man and
beast against it's visit?

Work for the COdifiers.

Nearly all the railroads Of the State
have been i'll one manner and another
aided locally by the people Or the
government, which is their representa-
tive. Against the people Of Iowa,
they in return have established discrin-
mating tariffs in favor Of eastern cities
where our trade and business would
conflict with theirs, and against the
people everywhere by refusing to trans
fer freight from che road to another
The work thai our Codifers should
take in hand in Codifying our laws
appertaining to rail road corporations,
should 60 to the extent Of prohibiting
all discriminating tariffs, and limiting
the charges such corporations may
make for the transportation of freight
over their lines, with such penalties
and remedies for their enforcement as
will give the people some measure of
protection against grasping avarice.
The Legislature should also provide
for transfer tracks at every railroad
crossing, compelling every railroad
operating and doing business in the
State to load its cars and transfer them
to such other road as the shipper may
desire to send over, and compelling
such other road to receive such car or
freight and forward without unnecessa-
~ delay to the place Of destination. 1t
should also provide for the return of
cars to the road Of the company own
ing them with like expedition.
Such legislation of itself will do
much to break up the unjust system of
discriminating tariffs that everywhere
war upon the peoples rights, for it will
enGble the people to choose their mark
ct and the route by which to reach it.
It will also place every section of the
State in connection with not only it's
own coal regions, but with the rich coal
fields Of Illinois. In State so largely
prairie as Iowa, and one which must
rely SO largely upon steam for manu-
featuring purposes as it does, this is one
of the first wants Of the people and one
of the first duties of the legislature to
attend to.

THE death of Mr.. Greeley places
the electors of those States in which he
received a majority Of the popular
vote in a peculiar position. When
they come to meet at the capitals Of
their respective states OH the 4th inst. +,
the question arises, whether they will
cast their vote for General Grant for
President, or for some other person
who was not candidate before the
people. They would not have been
required to vote for Mr.. Greeley,
except in honor; but now that he is
dead, they will be left free to cast
their vote for whom they please. In
view Of the fact that Gen. Grant re-
ceivcd the next highest vote for Presi-
dent in those States, it would seem
just that the wishers of those who vot--
ed for him should be recognized, and it
would be an act of magnamimity for
those who were in favor of Mr.. Gree
ley, to add their vote to the general
verdict. Still it is possible that the
electors in those States which elected
the Greeley and Brown ticket, will
cast their votes for 3. Gratz Brown
for President.-[Des Moines Republi-

The atmospheric Pn enonc-
NON that Produced Epi-
llenlic.

Such concurrence of exceptionally
low barometer and low hygrometer as
occurred in the United States and
Canadas, Oh the 14th Of October, it is
said, never before was known in this
country. 1t is important, perhaps to
enquire what effect this had in produc-
ing the horse epidemic which prevailed
SO simultanc ousiy throughout the entire
region thus affected, though knowl-
edge of the cause might not readily
suggest a remedy.
Mr.. Schultz who keeps a regular
record of the thermometie barometer,
and hygrometer to test
conditions Of the atmosphere
at the Mineral Springs in Central Park,
New York, reports that there is once a
year a concurrence Of low barometer
with remarkable absence of moisture in
the air, which is invariably productive
Of influenza in man, as well as other
animals On the 14th Of Oct, he re-
ports that the barometer fell to go AZ
and the hygrometer to Al, and produe-
ed phenomenal state of the atmosphere
in which there was a sudden removal
of pressure upon the animal tissues,
aAd a sudden consequent expansion Of
the lungs and blool-yessels, and a
simultaneous evaporation Of the ami
NAL fluids, and as might be inferred a
succeeding congestion of the mucous
