One would conclude on arriving at thi.

transported backward in the history of the
world fully half q century; and that the peo
pie were determined to remain in stafu qut
for another generation at least. There i;

Most of the stores, if such they may be called,
are plentifully ornsmentcd about the windows
with bottles OF brandy, whiskey and kindred
poisons, while casks and demiohns occupy
prominent positions within doors-'and that's
what the matter" with Grand Falls and other
provincial towns where free rum and conse-
quent shiftlessness is the general rule, and
total abstinence and enterprise the exception.
No one can fail to recognize the superiority
of our laws and practices over those of our
provincial neighbors on the temperance ques-
ton; and their influence on the manners,
eustoms as well as prosperity of the people is
everywhere apparent. "Annexation" would
remedy their evils.

TIE IOWA REPUBLICAN, CONFEN-
T(ON.

The republicans Of Iowa followed the
example of Maine in their State conven-
ton. Their declaration of principles was
as follows:
We hold the republican party to be
political organization of those American
citizens who are opposed to slavery in all
its forms; who believe that all men are
entitled to the same political and civil
rights; vino believe that all laws, State
and national, should be administered so as
to secure to al citizens, wherever born, or
whatever their color, creed, condition, or
occupation, the same rights before the law ;
who believe in free schools, free opinion,
and universal education; who believe
that American society and the Amer
rican people should all be raised to
the highest possible plane Of liberty,
honesty, purity. intelligence, and NOR
atty, and that all laws should be made
and the Government constantly admins
tered with this aim in view, and that no
party has right to the support of the peo-
which is not inspired with this purpose
Believing that the republican party is still
controlled by these principles, and that il
is now. as it has been from its beginning
an organization Of the best, and purest pc
litical sentiments of the country, we as re
publicans renew the expression of our de
votion to it. and believe that we a,n Sc
cure through it the political reform, and
the just and necessary measures of legis.
lation. and Of relief from monopolies and
other abuses of power. which the country
so much needs.
Therefore, the resolutions declare it the
duty Of the republican party to protect the
people from all forms Of expressions.
whether of monopolies, centralized OPP
preston OF any other; insist upon the
right and duty of the State to control every
franchise it grants; that the producing,
commercial. and industrial interests of the
country demand cheap transportation, and
that abuses in railroad management, ex-
cessive rates. and oppressive discrimina-
ton should be corrected by law; approve
the measures of the late Congress in ex-
posing corruption; denounce all forms of
official misconduct; declare that officers
embezzling public funds should be pun
ished under criminal law, and that it ought
to be the duty of every republican to OPP
pose the election of bad and incompetent
officials, whether upon our own or any
other ticket, and denounce the back-pay
act OF the late Congress, as well as the act
oil those who voted against it, yet re-
ceiyed the money. demanding the prompt
and unconditional repeal of the law.
Speeches were made by Gov. Carpen.
ter, MIR. Dysart. and Gen. George w.
Jones. Gen. Jones is lifelong demo-
crat, was ten years in the United States
Senate, and once Minister to Bogata.

The Biddeford Union and Journal takes
occasion to say that Col. Stone heartily
endorses Mr.. Dingley's nomination as does
York county entire" 1t also adds: "Mr.
Dingley received fair. honest and large
majority, and will make one Of the best
Governors the State ever had. He is q
man Of pure life, ambitious, as he ought
to he. but never Inscriptions, of I'M
swerving integrity, and keen intellect;
while, fitted by his profession which in its
training has no equal, to judge of the
needs and wants of the people, and what
ever ought to be done daring to do, the
Chair of State will be happily and worthily
filled by his election"
