The Result in the County.

While the result of the election in
Iowa county is not all that we could ask,
(our entire ticket ought to have been
elected, on the whole we feel pretty
we'll satisfied. The Reform majority
of last year has been greatly reduced,
and it is evident that with little more
systematic work on the part of Rspub-
licans it could have been entirely over
come, and we trust this will be done
by another year.
On county Offices, except Senator, the
election was merely matter of per-
sonal popularity aud individual work
on the part of the candidates, the vote
on both sides being considerably split
up, Republicans, however, as usual,
doing most of the scratching.
The defeat of Mr.. Joiner,w we believe'
is to be attributed principally to the
stories gotten up and circulated by the
Reformers in regard to his course in
the county bond business some years
ago, and this view, we think, is sub
stantiated by the fact that in Miner
al Point, where an open attempt was
made to make capital against Mr.. join
er ca that ground, and where the
charges were met by him and his
friends and fully answered and OK
planned. he was fully up with his tick
ct. But in the Northern district
different policy was pursued. The
stories were circulated privately-told
only where the Reformers thought they
would edo the most good, and the re-
suit is told in the table which We pub
lish elsewhere. Outside of politics,
there is bat little choice between Mr..
Joiner and Mr., Mcfarland. Both
stand high with the people of the coun-
ty for integrity and ability, and if
Iowa county is to be represented in
the Senate by Dcmo--ReformeE,
we know of no man whom We should
prefer to David Mcfarland.

The PREMIUM ENGRAtINS issued by

one of the most beautiful and costly we
have ever seen. 1t is not one of those
cheap, colored Autographs, with which the
market is flooded, but frst-class line and
mezzo:int engraving, executed in the high.
est style or art, after an original picture
by j. w. Ehninger, and cost, as the pub
Usher assures US, two thousand dollars,
in all. No premium of equal value, he
asserts. will be offered by any magazine
for 1875. The subject is "WAsHINGtos's
FIRST INTERVIEW With HIS WtFE." The
story is quite romantic Washington on
his way to join Gen. Braddock, in the
great French and Indian war 1755, stop.
ped, withhis orderly at the White House,
since SO celebrated in the Virginia cgm-
paigns of Mcclellan, Lee and Grant.
Here he met goung and beautiful wida
ow, with whom he was so fascinated,
that the orderly, instead of being sum-
moned within half an hour, as he had ex
pected, led Washington's horse up and
down, merely al day, while his enamored
master was listening to the gay sallics of
the charming Mrs. Gusts. The result was
matter of history. Mrs GUSTS became
the wife of the great hero, and was known
in after years,as Lady,W ashington. This
is picture that ought to be in every
household. You can get il, gratis, by
raising club for Peterson for 1875.
or by RENTING $3.50 for it and the mag.
azine. This is rare chance.
