THE REPUBLICAN, RALLy.-The de-
monstration ut the Court House Saturday
evening was the finest Of the campaign.
The Tanners to the number of about 100
were out with new uniforms and torches
and made magnificent appearance.
Hon w. G. Donnan was the orator of
the evening, and it is but just to say that
he acquitted himself with honor and
credit. His speech was the best yet de-
livcred here during the canvass 1t was
argumcntative, convincing and unex
ceptionablc in manner. 1t was an ap-
peal to the reason rather than the pas
sions and prejudices Of the audience, and
devoid of Misrepresentation of the can
didates or position of the opposition.
In these respects 1t was in marked con-
trast to the partisan appeal of Mr..
Adams one week previous. Mr. Donnan
showed conclusively by argument and
the facts of history that the Republican
party had been faithful to every trust
committed to it by the country; has
steadily lightened the burdens Of the war
whilo at the same time reducing the pub
lie Indebtedness; that it has accomplished
the pacification Of the country, quelling
disorder and protecting the rights of citi'
zens, and that every consideration Of
prudence and safety required its continu-
ancc in power. The speech was well re-
received, and the meeting closed with
three rOusing cheers for rant and VIII.

MORE BRAG A letter was received in
this city few days since from gentle
man in Clayton county, Of high position
and irreproachable veracity, saying that
Tom Updegraf Of that county who has
aspirations for the Democratic nomina-
ton for Congress in this District, is
Boosting among his followers, Of having
received letter from J.. NJ. Weart, of
this city containing the statement that 3
club of one hundred Greeley Republicans
had been formed at Independence the
home of Mr.. Donnan. AS there is not
one half that number Of Grecleyizcd Re.
publicans in Buchanan county, much less
Indep Evidence, and as Mr.. Weart explicit.
~ denies having written any such intel
ligence, or any political intelligence to
Tom Updegraf or any body else, the
story, by whoever started, is premedi-
tated mistake. and the responsibility for
it seems to be located in Clayton county.
Shall we have an explanation from Mr..
Updegraffs
Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1872-08-23

THE Conservative makes the statement
that there are "betwcen one and two.
hundred Greeley Republicans in this
county" If we we're disposed to COM
pete with it in misrepresentation we
might respond that there are one thou
sand Grant Democrats here, and one
statement would be as worthy of credence
a. the other. But perhaps our neighbor
will explain why it was that out Of SO
large number Of Greeley Republicans,
the canysssers for names for the county
Greeley club, after for two weeks scour-
ing the highways and byways Of the
county were only able, according to
their own report, to procure SO Republi-
can signatures; and these they dare not
publish. The reason why the Greeley
managers will not allow the publication
Of the 225 names of Democrats and Re-
publicans SO laboriously gathered in oil
parts Of the county is, that such publica-
ton would afford an opportunity for
disavowal by those whose names were
attached without their consent, and also
that it would too conspicuously show
what Democrats refuse to cat crow. The
number of these as compared with Demo-
cratic Republicans is two to one in this
county, and nobody knows this fact bet
ter than the men who circulated the call
for the Greeley club.

A CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTs.-Thep past
two weeks have been quite cventful in
the accident line in Newton Township.
First, daughter of P. Riley who lives
near the south. east corner of the county,
attempted to fill lamp while burning.
The usual result, an explosion, and the
flaming contents of the can envcloping
her, followed. Fortunately she had pres
ence Of mind to jdmp into swill barrel
at the door, and thus extinguish the
flames, but not until she was severely
burned about the lower limbs.
Next lad, son of Patrick Mccain,
about mile cast of Jas. Ironside's while
"foollng" about reaper had one of his
feet cut nearly off by the sickle.
The next case similar to the last, hap
pcncd on the same day, to Il young fellow
whose name has escaped US, living mile
east of Mr.. Ironside. The boys sister
was driving the reaper, and asked
him to adjust the lines. He approached
on the sickle side and when he had
finished, the girl thoughtlessly started
the team. Before he could get out of
the way the sickle took him on one of
his, ANGLES nearly sevcring the foot from
the leg

WHAT I KNOW ABOUT TRIMMING
Since the days Of our grandmothers,
there has never been such o rage for
trimmings upon ladies' dresses and suits
as this year: and the most popular is the
so called French fold, made from bias
material, put upon the dress in variety
of styles. To trim dresses at the present
day without the various Sewing Machine
attachments would be an imp0ssibility.
A young man In Chicago has just in
vented an improvement for all Sewing
Machines, with which to put on the fold
as fast and rs easily rs an ordinary hem
can be made. The same implement is
also n practical Binder and good Hem.
MGR.
1t is being made ande by the Leslie
Ruffler Company, andfa valuable addi-
ton to the Sewing Machine. 1t is called
Comings' French Trimmer, and will be
sold by all Sewing Machine Agents.

THE storm Of last MONDAY evening

THE storm Of last Monday evening
was the severest of the summer. For
the space Of an hour, the windows Of
heaven did seem to be opened indeed,
and rain fell in torrents. The lightning
was sharp and incessant, while the can
nonading Of the celestial artillery was
grand beyond description. Mr.. Joseph
Spngg Of Fsirbsnk township, and Mr..
Clayton of Homer, had stacks Of grain
struck and burned. The New York
House ON Main street in this city was
also struck. The fluid passed from .
defective rod to the roof through which
it made large hole and went tearing its
way through plastering and siding to the
ground. None Of the inmates Of the
house were even shocked though persons
some distance away were Frustrated.
In the storm of few days before the
barn of J. A. Miller of Hazlcton, was
struck in four places, under the cornice,
and simultaneously. Strange to say, the
building and its contents were not in.
jured beyond few splinters torn from
the boarding. One of the bolts passed
on its downward course within four feet
of span Of horses, standing in the
stalls.

The offer to bet proves nothing, nor
should it influence anybody, but there

the only way to defeat their game of bluff
is to meet it squarely. We are author.

The readers of the Conseruasiss may
have noticed that during the present can
vass, that paper has had little or nothing
to say about principles, but confiens it.
self almost exclusively, to the merely per-
sonal issues of the campaign. It scarce
ly ever alludes to the platform laid down
at Cincinnati and endorsed at Baltimore,
but is heavy on the swash about nepot-
ism, gift-taking, the Presidents horses and
stables, his visits to Long Branch, and all
that sort Of ridiculous and disgracefdl
gossip, which has such charm for small
and malicious natures. This failure to
appreciate and discuss the higher aspects
of the campaign, may undoubtedly in
part be attributed to depraved taste, but
this is not its significant explanation
The Conservative like its party generally
is not in sympathy with the Cincinnati
platform, and rather than make even the
pretense of endorsing the principles there
enunciated, says nothing about them.
For instance, the seventh resolution Of
the platform is Us follows:
"The public must be maintained, and
We denouncc reputation to every form
and guise."
Now We ask our readers to compare
this explicit declaration with the follow
ing editorial from the Conservative of
Sept. 9th, 1871, less than one year ago,
and then judge how heartily that paper
accords with that plank in the platform
its party:
Our DEBr.-Two billions of dollars is
a sum beyond Me feeble conception of
the human mind. None of us are able
to grasp it. Yet there rests upon this
country a mortgage of nearly two and
half billions. Add to this sum the State
county, township and corporation indcbt-
edness, and what we owe. amounts to
probably twice that sum. Will it ever be
paid: In justice to 0urseloes, to THE tar
cursed country should these immense out
RACES and ssoindling obligations euer be
discharged? OF course the bond holders
and the excruciatingly patriotic fellows
will say that every dollar should be paid,
and paid in gold. Perhaps it should
perhaps policy would dictate it, and pos
sibly strict construction of law might
demand it. But one thing is certain, the
great mass Of the people Of these United
States sciU msuer feel any pery pressing
moral obligations to pay either principal
or interest Of the immense sumo that arc
nou claimed against this nation. The
truth is, there il no moral obligation in
the matter; it is question Of policy or
of law"
Here we have reputation in its most
pronounced form; a proposal for the
government to swindlc its creditors, the
animus of which is clearly shown by the
allusion to "thc excruciatingly patriotic
fellows" who would have the government
meet its obligations. For any avowal to
the contrary we have right to assume
that the Conservative is yet of the opinion
that the country is under mo moral obi
CATION to pay its debts, and in this posi-
ton it is fair representative OF its party,
which does not accept sincerely the doc
trines Of the Cincinnati platform. nor in
tend to carry then out if invested with
power.
