position At Chicago, has impressed 10
with the verify OF what we have for
weeks heard, viz: that the Exposition
had been greatly improved and en-
larged over that Of the preceding year.
II closes with the present week, and
we know of no entertainment in the
West which equals this to interest and
instruct both old and young. This
portion Of Iowa has the advantage of
reaching this Exposition over the
most complete and the safest railway
in America. There is really solid COM
fort in travelling upon the Chicago,
Burlington Il Quincy Railway. The
clock work perfection Of its arrange
ments, the obliging attention Of the Of

everywhere. The closing days Of the
Exposition will be especially interest
ing, and now is the time for our peo-
pie to avail themselves of this grand
sightseeing entertainment.

In another column We allude briefly,
in general with other candidates,to the
Hon. M. J. Williams candidacy. 1t
Il proper, 40 our WEEKLY will not
agaiil be laid bsfore our people before

candidates.
Judge Williams took mp his resi-

He came among US young man of
few years practice in his profession,
and from that day 10 this he has been
in active practice A. a lawyer. save the
past four years that he has been upon
the bench. lie early took front rank
at the bar, and though commencing az
a very poor man, he grained by indus
try and frugali.y sufficient to purchase
his present fine farm, one mile west of
this city, when farm lands were cheap,
and which has since wonderfully in
creased In value, and with the improve
ments he has put upon il, he is now
possessed of a fine competence. Ii the
Judge has not in that twenty wears
built up for rhimselfa most excellent
reputation for ability, industry, and
integrity - citizen, lawyer, and
judge, We think . citizen possessed Of
such qualities would be hard to find
among us. With that record of so
many years before rs, It win be Diff
cult for his enemies to impeach his
character or ability with our people.
The records Of court show how he
has been thorough a. judge, to press
through the business with the least
possible delay, and has jealously
guarded the expenditures Of the peo-
PIES money. In Thus guarding the pub
lie treasury, he has amade enemies Of
certain men who would avoid justice
BY tedious.and expensive delays. His
arrangements Of the docket has been
effective IN dispatching business, and
carefully made to save expense. It
cannot be supposed that his decisions
could please everybody, and it would
be wonderful If he has not made en-.
eTnies of some parties In this way. but
it is needless to say that after record
Of 80 many years. in which there has
been . steady accumulation Of a good
name to him, il will now be in vain
to attack the ability or integrity Of the
Judge. Mr.. Williams Is largely en-.
gagged in farming, and certainly ought
to be identified With, and understand
what the farmers' interests are. While
this IL true, We would not be under.

All tales given upon the eve Of cleo
tion against candidates bear the mark

BEWARE OF TICKET FRAUDS.
Our opponents are the same old ones
OF former days. They will be guilty
of the same old tricks. See that your
tickets are genuine; compare them

that there are no pasted slips covering

Recently the insectiverous press OF
the country has been set 10 .wigglin2
furi0usly because on the occasion Of
the marriage of bis daughter, the Pres.
idcnt couclcd tho invitation cards as
follows, to.wit: "Thc President and
Mrs. Grant have the pleasure to invite
you" etc. Later the institutions Of
the country have been put in still
greater peril, because old Tecumsch
invited guests TO his daughters mar
risg0 a. follows: "The General of the
Army and Mrs. Sherman have the
honor 10 invite you to attend the we'd
ding" etc. ~
But Nellie is married, and Minnie is
married, and chaos is not upon us af-
ter all. These critics Of such severe
Republican simplicity, would have
had Grant say Of himself, "Mr. U. s.
Grant and Lady;;" but it point Of fact
that would have bcen more eccentric
affected aud stilted than he made it.
Moreover, it was the President and
the position of the President that
really sent most of the invitations.
We suppose they would have been
satisfied ii old Tecumsch had said ,"Mr.
w. T. Sherman" ETC., but the fact is
che three thousand invitations which
be sent ont were for the most part
issued on account Of his position, and
by the General rather than by the
Mister Sherman. Besides he il the
General and the only General of the
Army, and to write himself down a.
Mister would be selfevident attempt
at the absurd and ludicrous.
Now, that the country has safely
passed this crisis, it il 10 well enough
to refer TO precedent to govern in
such nnomentuous occasions hereafter.
We have before us bristol board
invitation card, eight by nine inches.
It has an excellent engraved likeness
