PRACTICAL ETHICS, for Schools and Families.
Illustrated by . chart. ByMatilda Fletcher. vol
II mo. Cloth, Is cents. Des Moines !: Mills q Co.
This il an Iowa book, written by an
Iowa woman, and published by an Iowa
firm, and as such is Untitled to the patron
age of our people. But this is not its only
recommendation. Webster defines Ethlcs
as being the cience Of Human Duty. The
volume is divided into five parts, or divis-
ions, each one of which except the first
treats on ten different subjects, or duties,
1t is arranged in the form of q catechism,
and the duties are presented in such a
clear, plain light that they cannot be mis-
taken. The volume is intended as a text
book, and il is most admirably adapted
to the purpose. 1t should be found in all
our schools and adopted as a class book.
1t is not only suitable for a class book for
the school room but would be a good thing
for the family circle. The parents could
give the children lessons to be committed
and recited on some evening of the week,
and thus make the study interesting for
the whole family. We trust the book will
receive the patronage it deserves. 1t
will be sent postpaid to any address,
on receipt of the price, by the publishers,
or by the Author.

Twelve Sacred Duties.

Among the duties Of the Republican
party, for the performance of which 1t
stands pledged before the world, are the
following:
/. To preserve the national Union and
prevent the disciples of the Calhoun doc
trine Of States Rights from obtaining
power.
2. To maintain the constitution, nj
enforce the laws, in a spirit of Justice.
3. To protect every citizen, and secure
to him the enjoyment of his political
rights and privileges.
4. To make freedom a reality, by Sc
curing to all l%aw-abiding citizens, free
dom of speech; freedom OF the press;
freedom of the ballot.
s. To provide a liberal system OF edu-
cation, by establishing Free Schoo!s
throughout the land.
6. To remove, as far as possible, all
class or race prejudices, and to develop
a spirit of rivalry, having for its basis'
merit and manhood.
z. To secure economy in the public ex-
penditures, an honest collection Of the
revenues, and a faithful and impartial
performance of public duty.
s. To reduce the burdens OF taxation,
by a national system of rctrenchment,
by the protection and encouragement OF
home industry, and by a sound system
of currency.
o. To elevate the working man, by set
ting a good example in the employment
and payment of labor.
10. To encourage and develop the Ag-
ricultural interests of the nation, by a wise
and liberal system of internal improve
ments, that will benefit the people and
protect them from monopolies.
II. To retain, for honest and industri'
Gus settlers, the public lands and to en-
courage emigration to the West and South
by liberal homestead laws.
10. To establish fratcrnal feeling be-
bYfaf9a dttbs TIT MsG mihh f9RaIfi9" S Seepp{Sbh Tx pa ub555G
each other; by enacting equitable laws;
and by fostering and Iewarding that
spirit of loyalty which begets true patri-
otism, and on which the future safety OF
the Union depends.
These are among the sacred duties OF
the Republican party. To rightly per-
form them, will require, in the future, as
in the past, the hearty cooperation OF
good men everywhere. No local jeal-
ousies should come between the citizen
and these sacred duties. Men who have
proven u%nfaithful to the people and to
their trusts, must be laid aside; but the
great party of liberty and justice must not
be sacrificed. Its banners must be borne
aloft IN triumph, and its principles in
terwoven in our laws and civilization.
Its past record is a record of human fidel-
ity to the noblest attributes of humanity.
1t reads like a chapter of Scripture-rich
in wisdom; full of earnest pleadings for
Divine justice. To destroy such a party,
in order to correct a few faults, or to sat
isfy private malice, would be to blot out
the sun, because a few spots have been
discovered on its surface. Purify the
party; select the best men for office;
strengthen it in every weak point; make
it again, a living, vitalizing power in the
land; and it will become the inspiration
that shall lead the nations of the world
to a higher plane of civilization .-Repub-

THE DEPUTY QUESTION AGAIN.

The opposition candidates and opposi-
aion press ct Tama county, notably the
Independent, are straining themselves and
shouting at the top Of their voice the eu-
phonius phrase "You lie You lie ~
whenever a Republican happens to nllude
to the fact that the present Democratic
county officers agreed TO run their Office,
If elected, without expense tosthe county
or deputy hire. The mere fact of them
saving to each voter in lama County the
,neagre sum of Is or 90 cents per year is
not the consideration in view-not what
t.he people are after. We cannlt believe
from our past experience with the citizens
o: lama county that they are SO parsim-
onious and small as 10 wish a man to
take the county Offices and lose money in
attending to the duties which devolvc
ilpon him. The law fixes the salary, and

We understand that among the many
campaign lies which the Democrats are
mdustrlously circulating throughout the
county is one to the effect that when Mr..
Bielby is elected Shnriff he intends to ap-
poin: Knight Dexter deputy, and thus
virtually have the office run by the same
men who controlled it so long. The only
objection urged against Mr.. Dexter is
that he had the office long enough. We
have published a denial of this heretofore
and now do SO again. Mr.. Dexter does
not want the position and would not take
it if it was offered to him, as he has m
thing a great deal better in view.

county who would wish to compel a man
to work for a less sum thar is prescribed.
And yet our people like all other honest
folks desire to hold a man to his bargain.
If he agrees to do a certain amount Of
work for a stipulated sum it is his OWE
lookout and not theirs as to whether or
not he loses money by the operation.
And if he does agree to do the work for a
certain sum, and then goes back on his
agreement when he takes his Office, we
have every reason to believe that the peo-
pie will ~repudiate him when he again ap-
pears before them and asks for their sup
port. In looking over the files OF the
CHRONICLE for 1878 we find in the report
of the Peoples Convention that one of the
resolutions passed by that body was as
follows That the Board OF Supervisors
in hiring clerks for the officers of the
county deserve the rebuke of an over-tax-
ed people, and we demand that whatsoever
receives said offices at the hands of the
people shall perform the duties thereof at
the salary fixed by law" Notice the
words we demand, &c. Now, as a mat
ter of course, it stands to all reason and
common sense that candidates accepting
nomination and (by ACCIDENT election on
a platform of this kind, OF, in fact, of any
other kind, endorse the resolutions and
statements in said platform. Indeed they
are not honest if they do not endorse the
platform, for the convention virtually
says to the candidates, twill you excep-
a position On this platform, and if elected,
stand by and stick to its precepts and slir-
it?" and the candidates in accepting the
position are bound by all honor and good
faith to put in practice the precepts and
doctrine laid down in the platform. We
care not wethcr Daniel Forker or Joseph
Bowdle, or any other man personally
pledges himself to run his Office and pay
his deputy out of his W pocket. Their
running on such a platform was pledge
enough and just so far as they have gone
astray from their platform, just so far
have they acted in bad faith wife III
people AssTtnelr own deputy or clerks,
it is no credit TO them: it is just what they
agreed to do. They were hard up for
office or they would not have accepted
nom nations on such a platform. All at
tempts of the candidates or the papers to
prove to the people, that no such pledges
were made are entirely too thin to amount
to anything, and like the prayers of the
wicked will avail them nothing.

tic medicine that can be employed: cleans
ing the stomach and bowels, and even the
blood. In small doses of one pill a day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
AYERS PILLS have beer known for
more than a quarter of a century, and have
obtained a worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are SO composed that obstruc-
tons within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they grippe much less
than the common purgatives, and lever
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
