DUBUQUE and Burlington are ma
king vigorous efforts to secure the
location Of the next State fair at
their respective localities. Com
mittees are actively at work in both
cities, canvassing for the necessary
means to prepare the grounds, erect
the proper buildings &c. Dubuque
has nearly raised the amount, esti-
mated at $4,000, and doubtless her
rival will be equally successful in
providing the financial prerequisite.
Of course the northern portion of
the State would prefer TO- hsye the
fair at Dubuque, as between the cit
les named, but judging from the ex-
precision Of many Of the papers in
this section, there is quite a strong
feeling sverse to any change in the
location Of the fair. The only ad-
vantage Of any moment possessed
BY Dubuque and Burlington over
Cedar Rapids is ampler hotel &C.
commodations. On the score Of
central locstion the. latter city il
certainly preferable, and As regards
easy means Of aocess, is fully squaa
to che others, while the grounds 1t
Cedar Rapids could hardly be sur
passed. Still we should not be incon-
solabls 1.-THE fair shonld 80 to Du-

Autobiography State Convention.


The chairman of the State Anti.
Monopoly Committee, N. M. Ives,
has issued call for convention
Of call voters of Iowa opposed to
the Radical party and monopoly"
to meet at Des Moines, February
25th, "for consultation" The ad-
dress accompanying the call is a
remarkable specimen Of rhetorical
pyrotechnics. 1t is as Gorgeous and
magniloqucnt as Mexican procla-
nation, and as full of quotations
scriptural and Shakespercan-as a
sophomore Grafton. 1t is, with
al, violent, extravagant and uncan-
did enough to proclaim Its author
one of the paltriest of demagogues.
There is no call for exaggeration or
highfalutin with regard to the
wrongs under which the people
groan; nor will extravagant recital
and denunciation right them. Yet
this is the style of the address of
the Anti Monopoly chairman. He
declares that "never since the days
of Herod has there has there been
such a prolonged and dismal wail''
from the people. The list of crimes
and grievances is pronounced i'm
possible to enumeratc, as "the list
would stretch out to the crack of
DOOM" Further: "The grievan-
ces detailed in the immortal dec
laration of Independence, would
pale their Intellectual fires before
the sadder grievances we are smart
ing under from the rule of the bold
bad men who compose the legion of
monopolies that are now preying on
us.
The party in power is charged
with the responsibility of all this,
but who is relied upon to reform
things? The old Democracy, to be
sure; Witness the following appeal
from the address:
"Choose this day whom We will
serve is a scripture cxhortation
that it would be well for the old
Democratic party to jointly and
severally hear and heed, and that
speedily. tLet them bring forth
fruits meet for repentance for sins
of omission, for their remissness
and neglect in attending elections.
Let them with all their "might,
mind and strength wheel into line,
form into phalanx, and work and
vote for this new political organiza-
ton, in their earnest cndcavors for
a better time, and more conscien-
tious administration of affairs by
our public servants"
The people will judge by its past
history the kind of reform likely to
be attained through the instrument
tality of the cold Democratic par
ty," or any new party with which it
is willing to affiliate, and probably
will not be carried off their feet by
the fireworks of the Autobiography
