The Diamond Pillow.
Special Claims.

The Diamond Plow has the following
advantages over other plows now in use;
1t is hardened to the highest degree
that can be produced in any material
known to the art
1t scours in all kinds and conditions of
soil
1t scours where all others have failed.
1t does tirst-class work under all Cir
cumstances.
1t is the lightest draft pillow in use, ow
ing to its shape and exceeding hardness.
1t has the advantage of being made in
sections, SO that when any part is worn
out it may be replaced.
Ii docs superior work both i'll sod and
stubble, thus saving the expense of al
extra plow for sod.
1t is adjustable for any width of furrow
desired, without changing the clevis.
1t has the Adjustable Heel, which keeps
the pillow level, makes it run steadily, ant
outwcar all others.
1t is the most durable plow ever pro
duced, and will outwcar any two made IL
the ordinary way.
1t is much the cheapest plow in tho
market when the amount and quality Of
work it will do is considered
1t is made Of the best material, in every
part, that can be procured without regard
to cost
Also the Sears Gang and Sulky will
Diamond Flows attached.
Sold only at the Wig-Wam.

THE reports from Judge Changers can
vass in this county, are of the most salts
factory and encouraging character. He
is making an excellent impression upon
ha people of both parties, and is received
everywhere with open arms, He had a
rousing meeting at Winthrop on Wednes-
day evening, and another at Quasqueton
last night, and his plain, candid argumcn-
tative, common-sense speeches, without
scurrility or bombast are so agreeable Il
change Of diet from the highly spiced
harangues habitually heard from Anti
Monop speakers, that they rouse the en-
thusiasm of the people to the highest
pitch. On every hand. after Judge Gran
gel has been seen and heard, we hear
from honest Anti-Monops such express
sions as these. "Well, that's tho kind of
man want to send to Congress" "He's
my man." &c. The people know an
honest, earnest and sincere man when
they see him, and they certainly accord
that character to our candidate for Con
gross, almost withou! exception.

The Conservative, lastwcck could hard
ly contain itself with qualification at the
circumstance that the Republican county
Convention had regular delegations but
from five townships. It argued from this
the sure decadcnce of the Republican par
ty, and broke out in double head lines and
other manifestations of hilarious Stiffness.
Well, the Anti-Monop Convention was
held last Saturday, and though, us the
Conservative tells us, it is healthy, Wig
orous, aggressive organization, the list of
delegates showed only 8 out of IS town
ships represented by delegates with Gre
dentials. Now, here a mathematical pro-
position presents itself which we COM
1t is this: Ii, as he would have us be-
lieve, any representation in the County
Convention short of every township in the
county, indicates Generalization and de-
cay then we have the fact established
shat in IS years the Republican organiza-
ton has demoralized to the extent of lust
, eleven -sixteenths, or II It quite three quar-
tiers, while the Anti-Monopoly party in
just one year has deteriorated onc-half
On the theory preached by himself, and
at this rate of progression it will not take
our contemporary long to figure out which
party is likely to survive, and just how
long it will take for his mongrel combina-
ton to 'pctcr out"

Tho Cooper Wagon.

\ new Improvement has lately been
adopted in the manufacture of this favor
tic wagon. 1t is soaking the felloes of
the wheels in hot OIL before they re
painted or tired. The attention of Il II who
use wagons is called to the advantage this
process has in adding to the durability of
the wheels. The oil (purc linsced, heated
by steam pipes to a boiling heat), soaks
into the felloes, the joints and the spoke
lemons, forming surface which is entire
ly impervcous to water OF dampness long
after the paint on the out side of the fel
loo is WON off. The consequence is
that the rim of the wheel can neither rot,
nor alternately expand and shrink, and the
tires put on well, when the wheel is frs,
ironed will stay firm and solid as long as
the iron will last.
The Cooper Wagons with this improve
ment are for sale at the Wig-Wam.

Sccundrolly TAIsehoods Exposed.

The Conservative true to its scavcngcl
characteristics, in its issue of this week
without the slightest effort to ascertain
their truth or falsity, and, apparently
without regard to any consideration OF
that kind, copies from a scurrilous sheet
in Winncsheik county, the following
string of charges, or rather, cowardly
suggestions of charges against Judge
Granger:
LIST. Did not Granger take u Journey
to Independence for the purpose of work
ing upon his nomination.
I'd. Did he not have the editor of the
Waukon STANDARD, when travelling as
Court Reporter, put in all his spare time
in telling what a good Congressman Gran
ger would make?
I'd. Was there not an Understanding
on the part of the Fayette delegation that
Granger should resign if nominated, and
use his influence to elevate w. b. Lakin
to the Circuit Judgcship, in consideration
OF Fayettc's support; and was not that
understanding warranted by the pledge
OF GranSerS frlcndS!
4th. Is it not strange that on tie day
OF the Calmar convention Granger should,
both by himself and his friends have Ia
bored earnestly with two of tho Winnie
shcik delegates for their support, "in
view of the fact that the nomination
sought him."
9th. Is it not most strange that it took
rs ballots before the nomination found Il
candidate?
9th. And is it not most "passing
strange that this "modcl of political pu-
rity' should travel to Dubuque, and when
there telegraph to one of those Winnie
sheik delegates in order to convince the
liquor interest that he was not temper
ance man, but on the contrary veritable
disciple of Bacchus?
We are authorized by Judge Granger
to say that the above sneaking insinua-
tons so far as they purport to detail his
action, and, as he believes, and is CON
WINGED. that of the other parties mention
ed, are unmitigated falschoods without a
particle or sembalnce of reality, purely
the invention of their slandcrous authors.
Judge Geanger did not by word, deed,
writing, hint CT suggestion, seek or at
tempt to influence his nomination for
Congress, nor has he since, done or en-
couraged anything to secure his election,
except in perfectly open, honorable, and
legitimate manner. His enemies one and
all big and little, clean and unclean, are
detied to produce one word of evidence to
disprove this declaration. Now let the
malignants who invent these ISLANDERS, and
the weaklings that echo them, come to
the front with authenticated facts, or hide
their demolished heads.

THE ANTI MoNoP CoNvENTIoN.-Th
representatives of the opposition came to-
gether last Saturday at the Court House
to nominate county officers. The gather
ing was exceedingly tame compared with
the convention Of the same party last
year, though the nominations made were
entirely unexceptionable. They are w.
W. Waburton, of Sumner, for Clerk, w.
j. Miller, of Liberty, for Recorder, and
A. MCGOWAN, of Jefferson, for Supervi-
sor, all excellent men and good citizens
We are personally acquainted with
Messrs. Miller and MCGOWAN, and we
cheerfully record our high estimate Of
their integrity, and our belief that if
elected they will perform the duties as
signed them with consciousness and
success We hear Mr.. Waburton spoken
of in like high terms, and we doubt not
justly In fact, Mr.. Waberton is alto
gethcr too good man to be served in the
manner intended by the leaders of his
party. We have the best assurances that
his election is not in the plans of these
schemcrs, that he is to be mere figure
head and that he will be used as trading
stock for the election of the balance of
the ticket, as was Sexton last year. He
did not seek the nomination, and no
doubt appreciates that his election is not
within the bounds of probability and were
he fully convinced of the purpose he is to
serve in the plans of the wire-pullers of
the party, he would assert his self-respect
and spurn the service. We protest
against any honest and honorable man
being thus despitefully used.

MIR. Leland's speech at the Court House
last Monday evening was listened to with
interest and satisfaction by more than
average sized audience, notwilhstan ding
the night was stormy and disagrccable.
The speech was calm, logical and able,
and abounded in good points. The
charges against the Republican party were
scverally met and answered, its glorious
history reviewed, and its integrity vindi-
Gated. The deceptive character of the
new party as mask for the Democracy
was shown up and its ambiguous plat
form criticised. The speech was solid ar
gument without froth or bombast, and
made an excellent impression.
