THE Pacific Mail investigation is
progressing in Congress. Irwin, the
agent of the company, has been sub
ject to a searching examination by
the Committee of Ways and Means,
though without success as yet in de-
veloping the main facts sought by
the investigation. Irwin testifies that
he disbursed $4,000 of the money
of the companyto secure the subsidy
granted by Congress in 1872, but re-
fuses to tell, what the committee most
desires to know, namely, to whom
the money was paid. He ayers, how
ever, that none of the money went
to members or officers of Congress.
For his refusal to enlighten the COM
mittee, the House, without a division
ordered his arrest and production
before its bar for contempt. Not
withstandine the refusal of Irwin to
tell to whom his brides were offered
and by whom accepted, he has tes-
tilted enough to show that the sub
sidy of half million year to the
Pacific Mail Company was procured
by fraud and corruption, and Con
gress should loose no time in rescind-
ing the whole thing. The temper Of
Congress, indicated by the votes on
this matter, shows that none of the
subsidy schemes before it this session
has ghost of a show of success.

"FoR my part, it seems to me, that
all the landed and laboring classes of
the United States, have one common
interest, and that nothing but wood

played off like puppets, by newspaper

The above sounds familiar in these
days of "Anti-Monopoly" and politi-
cal Grangerism, yet it was published
in the communication of ga Farmer"

Boston in the year 1893. The news

dark-dying in the awful darkness
the most awful of death. Right
after or during the hanging the Vigil
lants who were stationed at different
parts Of the court house yard, were
firing necessarily, over a hundred
shots being fired, and some say two
or three hundred.
The number of men in the mob is
variously estimated. There were at
least a hundred OF them. Those who
went into the Court House were evil
IDENTIFY picked men, = being the
strongest and most powerful. Some
wore masks, but the most had their
faces simply blackcned. After they
had accomplished their work, and
fred their revolver chambers empty,
they went off down Court Avenue,
past the Aborn House. Beyond that
we know nothing of them.
Sheriff Bringolf had taken unusual
pains to guard against such an event,
although it was generally supposed
that everybody was SaJlSned WIN Ine
Maxwell sentence, and that no one
would now think of resorting to
violence. The sheriff was up till
halfpast one o'clock, all over the
city, east and west side, looking to
see if there were any visible signs of
danger. But he saw and could dis
cover none, and supposed that no
trouble would be Matched up after
that hour, at y late hour he went
home, cautioned bis Deputies, how
ever, to be unusually vigilant. And
Deputy Scofeld and Jailcr WISE, and
the guards were at their posts, to do
their duty-but it was six men against
4 hundred.

The Manchester Press, Of last week,
says that new developments in the
matter of the failure of David lie
Roy, banker, at that place, make the
case look very dark for lie Roy, and
90 far to show that his suspension
was not merely bank failure, but a
deliberately devised scheme to swim
die and defraud his creditors; a reg
ular trap, baited with smooth words
and fair promises, to fill his own
pockets at the expense of a too con-
filling public.
Attachments have been made
against his property to the amount of
$4,000, and to satisfy these, the Sher-
if visited Mr.. lie Roy's residence,
understood to be richly furnished,
but did not find in it property, above
that exempt from execution, to the
amount of 5000. The next step was
the arrest of Mr. lie Roy. lie was
examined and bound over in the sum
Of $1,000, but i'll company with the
Sheriff, went to Dubuque to apply to
Judge Wilson for new hearing
In this he was successful, and Judge
Wilson will hear the testimony at
Manchester, on Monday.
Meanwhile, lie Roy comes out with
Il statement in the Dubuque papers in
which he hurls back the charges of
his accuscrs and proclaims his willing
ness and ability to meet all his obi
cations. lie says that on Monday,
Dec. 9th, he will pay so per cent of
all due certificates in cash, and the
balance on the 1st of January, 1875.
He claims that the clamor against
him has been inspired by the whisky
ring, and that the Press has been
misled by the same influence.

Iowa State University.

Correspondence of the Bulletin.
Iowa CITY, Iowa, DEC. Is, 1874.
Being subscriber to your valua-
bic paper, will take the liberty of
writing you letter, and cndeavor to
give you a few items, which, | hope,
will be Of interest to your readers.
l believe it is fact that will gen
orally be admitted that the State
University is one of the best institu-
tons of learning in the West. The
University consists of three depart
ments, viz: Medical, Law, and Acad-
emical. l wish to call your attention
more especially to the Medical De-
partment, which opened on the 2lst
of October, under more favorable
auspices than ever before. Not only
has the number been increased, but
the individual standard has advanced.
There are nincty-fvc students, OF
which seven are women; an increase
of thirty since last winter. We have
very able faculty, with the Presi-
dent of the Medical Department,
comprising fourteen professors. There
has been no changes in the faculty,
and, for this reason, the best interests
ofthc dcpartmenthave been ftrthered.
Each professor has occupied his re-
spectivc chair long enough to acquire
comprehensive and thorough views
of its scope, and to become familiar
with its generalization and minutia,
without becoming one sided and
partial; for medicine, unlike any
other profession, will not admit Of
excessive development in one
particular without corresponding
development in all its parts. While
on the other hand, thoroughness and
fitness foster independence and origi-
nality OF thought and action. Many
questions in medicine are yet under
going discussion. Its issues are not
settled by precedent nor the supreme
dicta of a judge, but every man
stands on a level with his fellows, to
establish the truth or falsity Of any
contested point. At present the stu
dents of the first, second and third
terms are obliged to attend the same
lectures, but it is hoped by nearly all
the professors and students, that be-
fore long the school will be graded
and each class will receive its own
proper course of lectures, as in liter
AIRY and scientific institutions.
Iowa City is pleasant and attrao=
tive place Of about eight thousand
inhabitants. do not have reference
to the mere qualification of the eye
as to the pleasantness Of location, but
to the general high-tone and the en-
thusiasm and sociability Of the peo-
pie. As the people of this place
have had all the privileges and add
vantages Of education, they are more
intelligent, and occupya higher plane
Of thinking than is generally the
case.
We will have a vacation of ten
days for the holidays, and will be
happy to have a rest from mental
labor, which is much harder than
physical eyertion. Fearing that |
will worry your patience with my
long letter, | will close.
Yours truly, j. w. X.

aid can take the palm. 1t attempts,
an indirect and sneaking manner
to palliate the act of the Des Moines
mob. and to weaken the force of out
ragged and indignant public sentiment
aroused by the lawless proceeding.
1t sneeringly alludes to the offer by
the Governor Of a reward for the APP
prchension of the murderers of How
ard, and suggests that it would be
more appropriate to offer a reward
for the men who conceived the idea
of abolishing capital punishment in
this State. But it gets down to its
level of recklessness and draws at
sight upon the stupidity of its readers
when it gravcly presumes that "had
not Howard been hung by the mob,
he would be out upon bail by this
timen This, when Howard was al
ready sentenced to the State Prison
for life. and his commitment to that
institution in the hands of the Sheriff.
It should be remembered, however,
that the brains of the Herald are on
a wedding tour.

The Chicago Tribune advocates
the death penalty for murder, and
improves the recent occurrence at
Des Moines to fortify its position OH
that question. In order to do so, it
finds it necessary to make some very
strong, not to say wild, assertions re-
garding crime in Iowa, for the past
two years. Itasserts that Christianity"
following the repeal of hanging by
our Legislature, and in consequence of
such repeal, Il fearful outbreak of
murderous crime occurred in our
State, which, it intimates, has been
kept up, with steady increase, until
the present time. Such statements
as these will strike the average Iowa
reader as slightly exaggerated and
unfair. Iowa has not had a revival
of murder which has not been equal
ly shared with the surrounding States,
for instance, Illinois, where the death
penalty still exists.
The fact that there is remarkable
and permanent increase of crime in
Iowa, disproportionate to the increase
Of our population, and the growth of
our cities, is not SO selfapparent that
the Tribune, if disposed to be fair,
is absolved from demonstrating it by
actual figures. There are good
many people in Iowa who will not
accept it as true, though coming from
so high an authority as the Chicago
Tribune. Further, we submit, if
special and exceptional manifesto
tons of the murderous spirit in par
ticular localities, as at Des Moines,
so triumphantly cited by the Tribune,
are to be accepted as an argument
for the rebuilding of the scaffold in
Iowa, similar spasmodic revivals Of
rampant murder in Chicago may as
legitimately be used against the scat
fold in Illinois. But the Tribune
alleges that not murder alone, but
horse stealing, train robbing, and
other lesser crimes, are also dispro-
portionately increased in Iowa. This
initiates against It's theory that the
abolition of the death penalty is alone
responsible for the increase of crime,
for the penalty for these offenses has
not been disturbed or modified at all.
In view of this abnormal increase of
all sorts of crime in our State, assumed
by the Tribune, its argument, if it
has any significance at all, points to
an appeal to the rope for the proven
ton OF robbery, as well as murder
Indeed, it indirectly justifies this rem
edy in the case horse stealing; and
| if for horse stealing, why not for bur
glary, arson, or even bigsmy?
The Tribune, while fastening to
draw an argument from the brief
experiment in Iowa, is very careful
not to instance Wisconsin and Mich
igan as specially given over to MUIR
der and crime of all sorts. These
States abolished capital punishment
years ago, and find no necessity for
return to the sanguinary code of ''an
eye fo1 an eye and a tooth for a
TOOTH"

Tho Mob Murder at Des Moines.

Tho Mob Murder at Des Moines.
The atrocious exhibition of mob
violence and murder at the State
capital last week is receiving from
the press of the State, almost without
exception, most emphatic and we'll
merited denunciation, and it is gen.
orally agreed that the people of Des
Moines, can only mitigate the inevi-
table disgrace that attaches to their
community in consequence of it, by
prompt action and earnest measures
to ferret out the perpetrators of the
lawless outrage. Indignation ex-
pressed in the empty resolutions Of a
public meeting, will not meet the
case. 1t is not possible that some
clew to the identity of the bloody
1nurderers of the defenselcss prison
er will not leak out. These must be
followed with resolute purpose, the
Williams must be caught, and when
caught, must be prosecuted to con-
viction and the netting out of the full
penalty of a crime as atrocious and
ten times as cowardly as that for
which Howard was convicted. We
have no disposition to expend par
ticle of sentiment upon Howard,
though there appears to have perva-
ded the minds of many, including a
portion of the jury, well-defined
doubt of his guilt, as charged But
the fact Of his speedy trial, wherein
the course of law and justice was not
hampered or thwarted, his convic-
ton and sentence to the extreme pen
atty known to the law, and the GER
tainty of his being speedily immured
within the walls of the Penitentiary
for life, leaves his cowardly taking
off by the murderous hands of a law
less mob, without shadow of ex-
cuse, justification or palliation. Sud
den excitement and phrenzy cannot
be urged to soften its features, for
the details of the transaction show
that the Vigilants planned their work
and went about it as coolly and de
liberately and as Systematically as
ever wilful murderer lay in wait for
his victim. On the hands of the
mob and the jul. ge, who by injudi-
cious remarks intlamed and excused
it, is the blood of Charles Howard.
and on the community of Des Moines
is the deep disgrace OF this outrage
most horrible.
We said in the outset of this arti-
Gle that execration Of this foul crime
by the press of the State is almost
unanimous. We notice some discor
dant voices. Some of the papers
hasten to seize upon it as an argu'
ment for the reinstatement of the gal
lows in Iowa, and allude to it as a
natural result of the abolition Of the
death penalty in our State. Nothing
could be more fallacious or ridicu-
lous. The Vigilants were thirsting
for Towards blood; under a verdict
of murder in the second degree,
which was the utmost that the jury
would concede, he could not have
been hanged by the law, no matter
what the penalty for the extreme de-
gree. Not content with anything
but his death, the mob would have
done, in that ease, Just what they
did.
