this year will rebound to its benefits
in many other ways. 1t will attract
to its farming lands the best part of
all immigration next year. 1t is safe
to say that there will be greater
demand for Iowa lands next year
than there has been for years, and
along with it very naturally an in
crease of prices. One of the heaviest
capitalists of Chicago has said to us
the present week that Iowa lands
are now more eagerly sought for
than any other, and that there is no
trouble in disposing Of them in the
transactions of trade. They are, he
says, the next best thing to money,
and he adds further, that surplus cap
ital is already moving itself toward
investment in their. He asserts that
the Iowa farmers, and through them
the Iowa business men, will be in the
best condition of any people in the
United States by the time winter
shall have come. The heaviest de-
mand on Chicago and Eastern CAPT
tai just now is for money to move
the Iowa grain crop, which is so inn
mense that the railways leading ont
OF the State are unable to furnish
cars enough to carry it off: Several
million dollars will come into Iowa
during the next month from wheat
and oats alone, and this flow Of mon
ey will be kept up the autumn and
winter through until the surplus
grain and pork and cattle product Of
the State shall have found its way
to market. We can safely calculate
upon an immense fall and winter
trade in Iowa this year.

THE Dubuque Times of the aoth

rcspondence between Il. a. Babbage,
the dcfaulting cashier Of the Merch-
ants Bank Of Dubuque, now in dis
graceful exile for his crimes ut Brus-
sells, and gentleman OF Dunlieth
interested in Cooks Automatic Boiler
Feeder. Babbage writes to make
application for the agency of the ma
chine in Europe and with the impu-
dence of an ingraincd rascal, refers
his correspondent for evidence of his
integrity, to his business career in
Dubuque!
The answer would be crushing TO
man with 4 particle of sensibility
or conscience. Babbagc's request is
denied with scorn, and his prcmedi
tated and heartless villiany charac
terizcd in the plaincst and most I'm
reserved manner. He is told thai
the crime of the burglar is white be
side his rascality, and that the onl,

of his former friends in Dubuque i.

reach him and compel him to expiat'

Iowa Republicans,

The Republican party certainly has
every reason to feel encouraged in
Iowa, for our enemies themselves be-
ing Judges, we have been faithful.
Ex-Governor Stone, iii his speech at
this place, said that he did not mean
to charge the Republicans of Iowa
with anything wrong-that we had
been straieht-and that the affairs of
the state had been conducted honest
ly and economically. These are not
the exact words Of the gentleman, but
it is what he meant, rs every one who
heard him will testify. Then what is
the necessity of a change? Common
sense would seem to say that just SO
long as party conducts affairs in the
manner indicated by the Ex-Governor,
just so long it ought to be let alone,
and just SO. long the people ought to
stand by it. We believe that the cit
liens of Iowa are contented with their
otfice-holders, and have not yet reason
to feel restless under Republican rule
which means the rule Of the people
themselves. Ofcoursc it is necessary
to have a little opposition occasional
ly, in order to check the evils that
are naturally inclined to spring up in
any party long in power. And hence
such little demonstrations as the anti
monopoly humbug has been making,
is calculated to do us good, and make
us even more watchful in the future
than we have been in the past. 1t is
something for party to proud of,
when the best stump-speakers that an
opposition can produce, come out and
frankly acknowledge that no fault
can be found with its administration.
We are as ready to condemn Presi-
dent Grants errors and meanness, as
our friends on the other side-and
have done so, both through these
columns and in our private talks-but
are unwilling to denounce a whole
party, and: clamor for changeI be-
cause of what any one man does.
Besides, we think with Senator Nor
WI, Ih'to ChdbSC HiSuiiH DSHloSldOlS
administration, from the simple reas-
Oh that there are but two great par
ties, so far as principles are concern
ed, in cxistance, and they are the
Delnocrtic and Republican parties.
And by what other name the adhe-
rents to the opposition party may
choose to call themselves, and how
ever they may dress the party, still it
is the old irrepressible Democratic
spirit that is in it. And for our part
we feel like clinging to the old ship,
which we intend to do SO long as she
is above water, and at last, when she
begins to go down, if there is any
other kind of life boat under the
heavens than a Democratic one, we
will speak for passage in itas prefera-
ble-for the great reason that we
have seen the democratic boat tried,
and know it will not hold water

Gov. STONE who has been abroad
in the land for two weeks now, is
generally reported rs finding few
people at his meetings, and scarcely
any enthusiasm. If Stone can't find
them, the anti-monops havn't got
them. For there is no better stump
er in Iowa, in either party, than the
goldcn-mouthcd Ex-Governor. Pre-
cmin 'ntly he is a rabble-rouser. If
any man in Iowa can draw a crowd
and hold it after he gets it, Stone
can. He's a generous and thought
full fellow, is William, as stumpcr.
He never fails to give everybody who
who comes something. Even the
vulgar and pruricnt wait always pa
tiently but never vaiply for their
part of the feast, stories with smut
ty edges to them, and the edges ali
there is to them. Give him his due,
too. He also makes Il good speech
for other and good sorts of people
lie did when he WAS Republican,
40 az 1ecl'u'Ilcai'S agreed, ana ne
hasn't lost any of his golden CAB by
jumping the fence. SO we say that
if he cannot draw large meetings or
find any enthusiasm the anti-Monops
