A Trip to Iowa.

EDITOR Grange Ad0ance:
Many pleasure trips are made and
described, but no one has made just my
visit, therefore my description will not
be the same.
Having spent some time in Minnesota
I concluded to return to my home in
Iowa; SO, accordingly, about the fret
Of last August found me on my way
there. Taking the cars at Dodge Gen.
tire short ride brought me to Owa-
tonna. The depot is situated in the
outskirts of the city, so taking the bus
we were soon nicely quartered in the
cool parlor of the Parcher House, large
and commodious hotel in the center of
the city.
Owatonna is very pretty place. A
part of it is built back in grove, which
not only aids in giving the town a pic
turesque appearance, but, also, affords
shelter from the cold storms of winter
and the scorching rays Of the summer
sun.
Owatonna has Of late gained some
notoriety from the fact that nine min.
eral springs have been feund about l %
miles out Of town. The location of
these springs seems to have been known
for some time to the owner Of the land,
but never dreaming of the value of them,
he never had had them tested until last
fall, when upon a thorough analysis of
the water there was found to be a va
riety, some of them being highly i'm
pregnated with iron, while others very
near were found to contain sulphur and
magnesia. The water has been in quite
demand during the last spring and
summer. was told that barrels of it
had been sent away for medicinal pur-
poses. During the summer it was used
as pleasant drink, being more palate
able than water from wells and cisterns
after it had been drawn a while. There
has been a new hotel built near the
springs, and shade houses have been
erected over some of the principal ones,
and on the whole the place is being
fitted up for, and now is, the resort of
invalids hoping to restore their lost
health and bloom in the healing waters
of the fountains.
Passing Oil through several small stu
lions, we at last reached Austin, which
seems to be Il thriving business place.
The hotels, churches, school houses, etc.,
seem large and tastefully built. 1 no.
ticed one hotel in particular, which was
built of stone, and which was built 80
near the railroad that when the train
stopped for dinner we stepped from the
cars to the steps of the hotel.
Many other towns and stations along
the road present many evidences of in
dustry and thrift which promises much
future prosperity.
At Mason City We entered the cars
bound westward, and the first place
worthy of mention is Clear Lake, the
largest lake, .believe, in Iowa. The
water is very clear and beautiful. On
one side of the lake is large grove, and
nestled in it is quiet little village. Out
few miles from the shore is large
island On which Is situated the "Island
House." There is steam ferry boat
running from the town to the island,
which is very pleasant, as Clear Lake

WHAT ARE THE MOTIVES.

Mr. William @. Ralston is dead.
Fifty thousand people attended the
funeral ceremonies; ten. thousand met
at Union Hall to pass resolutions in
manifestation of their sorrow. The
press is draped in mourning. lamenting
his loss. What is the occasion of this
unprecedented show of sorrow? Are
the people sincere in it?
Mr.. Ralston was good man, you
say. True, Mr.. Ralston, placed as he
was. at the uppermost round of the
financial ladder, and welding the in
funnce and power his position gave
him, could not help doing some good
deeds. He could not help himself
without, in some degree, helping
others; but, while he did this, he in
jured Ave for every one he aided.
In his lifetime he was a "monopolist;'
he was leader of the grasping bank
ring" and the very target against
whom the Impressions of the people
fell. He died with the failure of the
bank, and had, it not been for the
speedy action of the capitalists ten
thousand persons would have lamented
the sudden depletion of their purses.
There is something back of this out
ward show. The Bulletin and Call are
two influential papers-they are fear
less in the right; they upset the calcula-
tons Of cliques; they purified the
political atmosphere, and guarded the
City Treasury. Other journals became
jealous of their influence and power.
and were ready to make an onslaught
on the slightest pretense. Their oppor-
tunity had come. The Bulletin and
Call bad opposed the Spring Valley
water grab, and had cautioned the
people against the Bank of California.
Their predictions proved true. The
bank failed, and Mr.. Ralston's career
came to a sad end. Then arose the
cry: The Bulletin and Call brought
about the failure and caused Ralston's
death. With this weapon their
enemies manufactured public SYM
patty; not for Mr.. Ralston's sake, but
for the advancement. of their individual
interest When such papers as the
Chronicle and News Letter attach to
the course of the Bulletin and Call the
appellation -" vicious journalism -
it is time for fair minded people to in
quire into their motives.
