If WE may believe the Gallstin Gazette
(and tho truthiulness of that sheet is
rarely questioned) Gen. W. b. Anderson,
the Reform candidate for congress In the
18th district, is quite as much of sneak
and dodger as is our Isaac, of the 18th
district. "What," inquiries tho Gazette,
fare Gen. Andeton's views In all of
his speeches he does rot refer to the recon-
struction measures OF the Rsdisal party.
He does not refer to the tariff, he is silent
as the grave with regard to the civil rights
bill. The truth ia he ia afraid to express
an oplrion. If he opposes the civil rights
bill and the tariff he is in danger OF
offending the Republicans, and should he
approve of these measures he fears that he
will lose the seaport of the Democrats.

The Ottumwa Democrat, late State
organ of the Anti Monopoly party of
Iowa, in publishing list of Anti
Monop Congressional candidates in
that district, which we publish amc ng
our political items. thus LAYS down
the Democratic word with the Cop
pcrhead bark on it:
These gentlemen, it is understood,
are all willing to sacrifice themselves,
and it is well there can be found
lambs for the altar. Yet before they
convince themselves that election IS
certain, let them consider that the
people have something to say abou,
it. Let them understand especially
that the Democratic people will in
sist that the candidate for Congress
must unequivocally express himself
against the Capitalization schemes of
the Republican party, and he must
also express himself in favor of the
rights Of the States as guaranteed
by the Constitution. Any candidate
who falls short of this demand will
fall short of Democratic votes in next
October.

During the last Presidential cam
paign he started out to sing the Sc
ducfive song Of reform, and he dwelt
hard and long upon the miserable

South by the President TO curse that

The pooling" railroads of Iowa
the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacii
the Chicago, Burlington 4 Quincy,
and the Chicago & Northwestern
have serious question on hand. The
former has coniormed with the Iowa
railroad law the others have not and
have not yet proposed to do SO. Tn
less they come in the pool" will be
broken. If they stay out there will
be competing railroad fight on the
carpet. The c., X. IL p, by accent
ing the law, carries freight and pas-
sengers far cheaper than the other
routes, consequently will take the
lead in business. The other roads
don't want to come in-can't really
afford TO accept or reject the Iowa
law; and SO there is either a big con.
eesslon or a big railroad fight be-
tween these great lines, soon to be
heard from.

Apropos of the present interest in
comets and mania for comet gazing.
we extract the following from long
article in an exchange:
snow as to the tail Of he pfesea,
comet, il streams, according t. Pro-
| lessor Parkhurss, three million miles
across space like an enormous mantle
Of Brussels lace. Ii resembles the
Milky wav, with more milk in it
that is to say, 1t is more condensed.
1t spreads like fan, and in that res
pecs resembles the comet of 1911.
People ignorant of astronomy and
little given 10 the study o. the
heavens, except when they want 10
find out when il IS about to rain. have
III idea that the tail oil comet is like
the tail Of COW, wbisking around in
warm weather whe. coming rather
close tp the sun. moon. and earth. and
hanging down straight and quickly
when passing through the Milky way.
II the tail of this comet had ANYTHING
like the solidity of a cows tail and
were to whisk around ever so pain
fully Al this moment, it would take
the top off the North Pole, the Bun
ker Hill Monument. and relieve the
Goddess of Liberty from duty on the
summit Of the Capitol AZ Washing
ton.
Another erroneous idea, that must
be corected,is that comets are a sort
of celestial manixcs or reformars, buck
ing against the established order of
the universe and racing around space
to frighten conservatism and earn =
cheap notoriety.
Prsf-ssor Chapman says that
comet is merely collection of small
Particles of matter, about the size of
meteorites, from an ounce to a pound
in weight. His reason for this state
ment is that you can see the stars
through the matter rad,ating from the
comet, even close to the nucleus. He
even thinks you might see the star
through the nucleus, only that the
light Of the nucleus DESTROYS it. 1t
would be curious to observe an enor-
nous cobb.e stone pavement million
miles long hung up in the sky ever
SO high, and science leveiing the
spectroscppe On the singular oheno-
menon. The tail of the comet. ac-
cording to the Professor,is little more
than this, and perhaps he is right, for
is there is not "a pathway of light
through the sky?'' as the poets ex-
press it.
Not the boss meteor. This will
hardly prove as beautiful or as large
= comet as many that have preceded it.
The one Of 1911 was esteemed bv as
tronomers as most magnificent COM
ct. It's nucleus was four hundred and
its head one hundred and twelve
thousand miles in diameter. Its tail
was beautiful fan shape, extending
one hundred and twelve million miles.
1t is right to say that among the nu-
merous comets observed up 10 the
present time, either with the naked
eve or by means Of telescopes, the
majority are distinguished by nebn-
losity surrounding the nucleus, and q
great number, especially of the mos,
brilliant ones, possess luminous
train or tail
