Liberal Republican Convention.
DAvENPoRr, April 24.-The follow
ing are the resolutions adopted yester-
day at the Iowa Liberal Republican
Convention, at which about one hun
dred delegates were present:
We, the Republican Convention,
believing that the present Administra-
ton and the officeholders throughout
the country have assumed unconstltu-
tional authority and are endeavorlng to
subvert the Republican party to their
own personal interest for the relnstate'
ment Iof themselves, their relatives
and personal friends in office. and that
a majority OF the American people are
on the eve o. demanding better gov.
ernment, sympathize with the liberal
movements throughout the country for
reform.
We hereby declare that we are
opposed 10 the denomination OF L. 5.
Grant for President, and will in no
event give him our cordial support !;
that we will support any one OF the
good and able men OF the party for the
place in the gift of the people. of proper
nomination upon a platform declaring
in favor OF honesty, reform, amnesty,
thorough generallreform and one term
principle, for the Presidency.

The Press on the Liberal Movement
Lumber.

| the FfeA6 on the Liberal hOSe"ens
Lumber.
CHICAGO. April 24.-The Times is evi.
IDENTIFY determined to destroy the
Liberal movement unless Judge Davis
is made the nominee Of the Cincinnati
Convention, and the Tribune is similarly
determined unless Judge Trumbull is
selected. The Times this morning
openly threatens that If Davis is not
nominated the Democrats will make a
nomination Of their own, and goes on
10 eulogize that gentleman, saying that
while he has always been an opponent
of the Democratic party and never
voted Democratic ticket in his life, he
has been less actively and less violently
a partisan than a majority of the dis
tinguished men Of that party.
On the other hand, the Iri6nns this
morning says: 1--WE predict that the
ancient Democratic game Of taking a
man without political record, in order
to get something against which and
without which nothing can be said, will
not be followed by the assembled Re
formers at Cincinnati. This campaign
must be aggressive, and their candidate,
when elected, must not prove swindle
to those who elect him. He mus! have
known record as q statesman, and
that, too, OF the largest purse and IRE.
proachable kind. In his way only can
he 20 before the people and ask for Re.
publican votes. 1t can't be done with a
man of putty, nor with an unknown
negative quality
1t is feared that the gradual disap-
pearance Of the winter snow, whereby
no heavy spring freshet occurred and
the absence Of the usual heavy rains at
this season will make much Of the
timber cut for numbering purposes un-
available the present year. From all
the lumber districts OF Michigan and
Wisconsin accounts come OF large mum.
bers OF logs which are cut but cannot
be got to the mills. 1t is known, how
ever, that much greater amount than
usual have been cut this year, 20 that
no great scarcity is apprehended.
Gail fer Meeting.
CHICAGO, April PA call has been
issued for meeting, tomorrow night,
of all citizens, without distinction OF
nationality, who are in favor Of re
form and a platform Of which the
following are the chief points: The
Constitution as it is; re-establishment
OF brotherly feelings; resistance to all
unconstitutiona! powers; universal
amnesty; modification OF revenue and
taxes. Sweet and others will speak.
The call is signed mainly 10y Demo

The Wrong Thing Righted.

Our local readers are all familiar
with the divorce case Of Dunbar Us
Dunbar, and with the efforts OF Mrs.
Dunbar to obtain possession Of her
child during the pendency OF the snit.
1t will also be remembered that the
Circuit Court awarded the custody oi
the child to the mother, but that the
execution Of the award was prevented
10y an appeal Of the defendant to the
Supreme Court 1t has also beea
a matter OF public notoriety that Mrs.
D., for time, was not permitted to
visit her child and that latterly she has
only been allowed to do 90 under very un-
pleasant circumstances. This morning
Mrs Dunbar went TO the boarding
house OF Doctor Dunbar in his absence,
gained acce-s to the room where her
child was detained aud alter brief but
decisive conflict with the lady having
it in charge, gained possession and car
rel the lltlle fellow home in triumph.
An effort at recapture was made but
abandoned. Then warrant was Issued
but the justice recalled It, upon ascer,
tanning that he had no power under the
statute to interfere. In the meantime
1t is understood that the mother and
child have been placed out OF harm +
way. The symplthies Of the commu
nifty have always been witk Mrs. d. in
this case, and there is general feeling
Of satisfaction that she has overleaped
the laws delay and 50 handsomely
asserted her rights -ChGIc'tOn Courier
