The Difference.

Every observing mind viii bear US out
in the assertion that the man or woman
who makes the mcSt profrSe and ready
promises scidnm does SC with defined
idea Of wl,a, is promised or expected OF
him. It is an oif,.hand way with him,
and tina, is all. He viii! Promise more in
ten minutes than could possibly be &C
conpliShed in week. And /! Is sur
pri>ing how many there arc who believe
taa, this off: hand liheratlty OF PROMISE Is
ali right, and that the generous friend
who offers 4 week Of his time, all OF his
talents and ingenuity, as we'll as muscle,
lust because Its no trouble in the wo'!d,
YOU KNOW" and "whcre'S the use Of hav-
ing q friend unless vou uI:"r ::Se OF him,
you know" and such twad!Ie. Is the
bes, fellow in the world. Oh ,hc other
hand, the m.n ol few words, and who
makes no promise without GT>t counting
the cost, and whether j: is Plart' ablc to
dc " hat is asked, and wilH will, if ;hcre
is difficulty il the way Of It's accom-
Dlishmcnt, pnut il out first, is counted q
surlv, unaccnmmodal!rg fc!!pw. who nev-
er granted a favor Willingly il his life.
There is just this difference between The
two, the Que has ~ stability, 10 bu>l-
ness qualities, cares nothing for his word,
and only talks for .he sake of being
heard, and making pleasing impTe>s'o"
his promise is as empty as the wind,
toin US smoke He is just like the spend
thrift, spends before he makes, and often
timrs that which is not his own. The
other, however, regards his word as his
bond, makes no promise which he cannot
See some way to fulfill, and if he hest
tatcS before making promise only does
so that he may look ahead and see what
the chances are. What ne says he means,
he is as true as steel. Witt the majori
ty of people, however, the man Of mag
nihcent promise, with bis atfahle smile,
is the NEST acceptable, no matter how
often they may have been disappointed
with the tinSel of his generosity, aud
vice versa OF the OTTER. The one can
never be relied on, the other can in all
cases. This is the difference.

We would say to you and to all

two, but for all of our thousand
subscribers. Ifyou choose to stop

We consider that all events require
at our hands passing notice, and
as an Editor we viii notice the
devil himself if he becomes matter
of local interest in Iowa Falls. But
we presume that his Majesty would
be offended even then, unless we
pictured the sky blue color Of his

AN effort is being made to secure
the removal by Congress Of the du-
ties on type and other material used
in printing Offices. Tie tariff on
this class of articles is one Of the
most onerous and oppressive of the
whole list. 1t is purely rrohibi-
tionary in it's character, yielding no
revenue to the government, its only
effect being to put it in the pow
er Of half dozen type founders
in the country to control the
trade and charge what pfces they
please. Accordingly we find them
making prof, of four hundred to
six hundred per cent. OH all that
the printer has to buy, charging
substantially war prices, and amas-
sing immense fortunes in the bust
ness. They combine not only to
make these extortionate prices, but
to crush out all healthy compc,i-
ton. Practically, three leading
firms control the business in this
country and impose upon printers
and the smaller founders such pri-
ces and such rules as they may see
fit to adopt. 1t is plainly the duty,
as it is the interest, Of the press to
use every effort to break down so
overshadowing and despotic mo-
nopoly.

Presidential.

The "Labor Reform" party met
in national convention, at Columbus,
Ohio. on the o2nd, and nominated
for President, Judge David Davis,
Of Illinois, Of the Supreme Court OF
the United States, and for Vice
President, Gov. Packer, OF New
Jersey. At the same time and place
was held the national convention OF
the "Prohibitionists," composing
about one hundred delegates from
twelve States, who also nominated
candidates, Jas. Black, Of Pennsyl-
vania, for P, csident, and John Rus
sell, of Michigan, for Vice Presi-
dent. We notice that the Chicago
Jouynui is cndeavoring by most
vindictivc onslaughts upon these
anusemcnts, to give them a signiti-
canoe and Importance they do not
otherwise possess.
On the same day, Republican
State Conventions were held IL
Missouri and Indiana, the former te
select delegates to the Nationa
Convention and the latter to nomi
nate State officers. In both, reso
lutions were adopted endorsing the
denomination Of President Grant.

TIE circumstances attending the
appointment of Hon. Henry O'Con-
nor to a position in the State De-
partment at Washington, afford
another illustration of the discount
esy of Mr.. Harlan toward his col
leagues Of the Iowa delegation. 1t
is stated that the appointment was
made solely through the influence
of Mr.. Harlan, Senator Wright, or
the Iowa members of the House,
not being consulted or knowing
anything about it until the matter
was consummated. 1t is not prob
able that any Of the delegation
craved the opportunity to object to
the appointment, but as it was one
to which the whole State and not
any single district was interested,
it would have been nothing but the
commonest courtesy to allow the
entire delegation to join in solicit
ing IT.

Good Christianity and good

well address themselves to petition.
We would like to see circulated in
every Iowa church, and church
sociablc, and all other gatherings
in which the better character Of our
people is represented, petitions to
the Legislature for the abolition of
Capital Punishment. If this were
done, and no others than those who
would go to the gallows to witness
an execution should refuse to sign
it-and such are the only ones who
could consistently refuse to sign it
the expression OF our Christianity
and civilization would find in it's
real power; and, in the exercise of
its power, advance Iowa to the en-
lightencd ground Of declaring that,
by Christian license, the law can no
more consistently murder man on
the gallows than it can degrade
Gods image at the whipping post.
Ii all the people in Iowa who would
see Capital Punishment abolished,
would let their wish be so indus.
trious as to make itself known, our
State would not long be tied, in the

PaHsoa Newman.

The Washington correspondent
Of the Chicago Post relates the fol-
lowing incident, of DIR. Newman,
the pastor of the State Church,
chaplain ofthc Senate and particular
friend Of Senator Harlan:
In connection with this political
church, n very curious incidcnt
suggests itself. On the afternoon
during which Summers civil service
amendment to the Amnesty bill was
most cxcitcdly discussed, and when
the venerable hero Of anti-slavery
days was cauterizing with his burn
ing words those who ''madc the
last relies of slavery to die SO hard
in the Senate Chamber" rs he term
ed it, the Rev. Father Newman, by
virtue. of his position as chaplain of
the Senate, was observed very
busily going about from one Sena-
tors seat to another, engaged in
earnest conversation. 1t turns out
that the question which he put to
several Senators was something
after this manner: S'Does this
amendment III point Of fact mean
that q negro may buy a pew in the
middle Of my church, and that | and
the church officers have no authori-
ty to prevent it," The Senatorial
answer was, "yes, that the negro
not only might buy the pew, but
that the Rev. Father Newman, in
ease the amendment should pass,
should lie refuse to sell the negro
the pew, could be fined five hundred
dollars and sent to-prison." Father
Newman concluded that the amend
mcnt was not strictly right, and
believed that if the negro could buy
a pew in the centre of his church it
might considerably interfere with
the sale Of the. pews Immediately
surrounding it.
