IT is reported that the Republican ring
masters of this city, have fixed up thcil
slate and candidates for county nominal
tons. Outsiders can step back. - Con
serrdtiUe
The files of the demagogue sheet across
the way for the past six or seven years, to
our own knowledge, and how much longer
we cannot tell, will show, just about this
time every year, an item similar to the
above. It. never found any Republican
stupid enough to take stock in it, and
never will Our advice to the Republi
cans of Buchanan county is, that they see
to it that full caucuses are held in every
township, and that they send up to the
County Convention unbroken delegations
of the best Republicans, untrammeled
and unpledged In this way, if there
should happen TO be IA ring or a estate,
they can knock it higher than kite
Talking about fixing up" people on tho
street are already forecasting the entire
ticket to be nominated by the Democra tic
County Convention in August, and it is
apparent that the Bourbons won't be de-
MED this time either.

could do to afford relief But it was evil
dent that the injury to the internal organs
precluded recovery, and after lingering
four days, portion OF the time in great
pain, the sufferer finally expired on Mon

THE Cedar Rapids Times of last week,
says that young man, name not given,
who resides in tins city with his mother,
but who has been working on farm near
Marshalltown, was taken suddenly with
insanity while purchasing clothing in a
store in Cedar Rapids. He had been at
tending the camp-meetiDg and his rawlings
were probably the result of religious ex-
element. He was taken in charge by
his brother whose business is peddling
through the country with horse and
wagon. Who is the lunatic?

STOP IT.-Wc would call the attention
of the City Marshal - who we know,
means to do his whole duty-to the abuse
of fast driving, now becoming too preva-
lent upon our streets We have witnessed
this season number of very narrow
escapes from death or mutilation from
this cause: only day OF two ago boy
was knocked down and under tie feet of
IL team being driven ut too great speed
around the corner of Main and Chatham
streets Our streets are not the proper
places to show off the speed of fast stock,
and horsemcn should be particularly care
full at corners and streetcrosslngs. If adj
monition proves inefficient, per haps fine
may impress the duty of care upon some
of our Jehus.

WANTS TO KNOW, You kNow-A cor
respondent of the Dubuque Times at Sun
nyside. in this county, whose namc-as
we do not wish to make him Extensively
comprehensive suppress, but who evil
IDENTIFY belongs to that class of farmers
who are "too POOR" to take their county
paper, propounds to the; Times the follow
ing interrogatory:
"IIas the State of Iowa herd law or
not? mean law to restrain stock from
running at large am aware that we had
vote on the adoption of the herd law at
the last general election, and that it carried
by large majority, but that IS the last we
have heard of the matter. There are Il
great many in this section who read the
Times and who cannot do without it. but
in all their careful reading they have
never seen the herd law printed"
The Times is only able to give its cor
respondent such general information per-
tanning to the subject as is found in the
Code and session laws, to which authori-
ties it refers him for the more minute
particulars. If the correspondent at
Sunnyside thus seeking knowledge under
difficulties, had beer liberal and cnterpris-
ing enough to patroniZe one Of his home
papers, he would have saved himself
some trouble, and been in complete pos
session of all the information pertaining
to the subject His stock of knowledge
seems to have extended no farther than
the fact that the herd law was carried in
this county by a large majority. THAT
is the last he has heard of the matter
Taking no paper but a city journal pub
lishcd 80 miles away, he is utterly oblivi
Gus of the fact that the herd law was
declared in effect by the proper authority,
that it has been cusscd and discussed
without limit, that it has been in the
courts, its constitutionality affirmed but
its regularity the subject of two or three
widely different decisions, all of which he
might have known by simply eNpending
So for the BULLETIN or Conservative. by
this exercise of good judgment he might
also have "seen the herd law printed, d
satisfaction denied him with all his careful
reading of the Times.
We allude thus pointedly to the Sunny
side correspondent of the Times only fol-
the reason that he is the representative OF
class of persons who seem to think thai
local paper is of no value; and who, de
pending wholly upon some favorite city
journal for their information, oftentimes
like HIM, display an ignorance OF facts
transpiring at their very doors, rs ludi
crous as it is inexcusable. The moral W.
draw from it is this: If you want tc
know the facts that it is for your interest
to know, facts that will put money il
your pocket, and ignorance of which is
an imputation of your intelligence, (fol
he is poorly informed that does not know
OF the things nearest to him)-TAKE Your

FIREs.-An alarm of fire on Sunday af-
ternoon last, had its origin IN the burning
of q portion of the roof of the dwelling OF
A. J, Fuller, on the west side, south of the
Manufacturing Co.'S works. The fire, as
we learn, took from defective flue, and
was extinguishcd with water conveyed in
pals before the arrival of the Firemen,
who, however, turned out with their usual
promptness.
Another incipisnt blaze occurred at X.
O'Brien's store about 8 O'Clock, Tuesday
evening. resulting from carclessness in
lighting the lamps in one of the front
windows The damage was nothing more
than quantity of scorched and blackencd
drapery, but the threatened confagration
created an intense excitement on the
street, There is nothing that arouses our
people like the cry of fire.

RESOLUTIONS.
1st.-That women have the same natural
and inalenable rights, and the same com
mon interests as men.
! 2d.-They have as much concern in the
establishment of justice, in domestic tran
guilty, in providing for the common wei
Of Liberty for themselves and their pos
tirity, as men have.
3d.-They have as strong love of
country and exalted and pure patriotism,
as men have.
4th-They are naturally as capable of
determining what laws and measures will
be equitable and right, as men are. So.
5t.,:-Thcy are taxed without represcn
taton, which is plainly unjust in any
government claiming to be founded upon
the principles that ours is.
6th-They are made amenable TO the
laws even to the extent of capital pun
ishment and are thus judged by laws and
often condemned to death by laws which
they have no part in cnacting, and to
which their consent has never been asked
or given.
7th.-Deprived of the ballot, they have
ITO InciliS VI SUI IiotCCtlou aS5diuol any
form of legal and judicial injustice.
Slh.-With the ballot they will possess
an equal share of political power with
men, and thus be enabled to redress their
wrongs.
9th.-4sll class legislation is wrong
in principle, and always sure to be oppres-
sive.
1Oth.-A government when excludes
onehalf of its population from partici-
patton in its affairs is not government of
the whole people.
11th--To make sex alone the ground
of exclusion from the exercise of political
rights is as unjust and tyrannical as it was
to make the color of the skin an excuse
for oppression.

OUR CITY.-The editor of the West
Union Gazette who was here on the 9Th,
thus records his impression of our city:
One who has not been in independence
since a year ago, when the best of the
town lay in ashes, can hardly realize that
this is the same place. The beautiful
blocks grown upon the smoking ruins re-
mind of the wonderful power of Aladdins
lamp, and, in truth, display an enterprise
and public spirit that any town in Iowa,
however large, might well be proud of.

THE Waterloo Rsporser of this week

| THE Waterloo Reporter of this week
contains an account of the exploits of one
Geo. Holland, a baker, who has been stop
ping at Jcsup, but who, on presentation of
his board bill, cit out" stealing ride on
the cars to Waterloo Here he made a
confident of young man named Robin
son, who was in Waterloo Jail last sum.
mer for stealing clothes from the Carter
House, Cedar Fails, and the two set out
on a burglarious expedition. Robinson
played the part of sentinel while Holland
entered several houses, securing no plum
der, however, until he came to the resi-
dence of Trainmaster Saunders, from
which he took a valuable watch, some
jewelry, money, &c, amounting to $500.
The robbers then entered boX-car. to
sleep, and when Holland had strayed
away into the lands of dreams, Robinson
quietly left the car, hunted up one of the
railroad employees, told him the whole
story and dispatched him for an officer.
When the latter arrived, Holland was
aroused and arrested. By kobinson's aid
the stolen property was afterward recov-
cred from the place where it had been hid.
Holland was committed III default of 800
bail Robinson explains his conduct by
saying that his Jail experience had con
WINGED him that the way of the transgres-
sor is not profitable; and that he purposely
joined Holland in his HOUSEKEEPING
scheme TO trap him.
