Settlement OF ALI State DiHicHIIies.
What the Democrats Of the House
Think and Say of Hon. Alex.
Stephens's Vote.

ARBITRATION AND THE EXTRA SESSION.
New Orleans Picayune.l
All the required conditions having
been complied with on the part of the
Conservatives, the documents, returns,
etc., were yesterday forwarded by ex-
press to Mr.. Wheeler. They will reach
Washington few hours after the ad-
journment OF congress, and can, there
fore, be taken up Immediately by the
committee Of aTbitratOrs. We presume
it will need but very brief canvass to
determine the sense Of these papers.
The returns for waIded by our party are
merely duplicates of those forwarded by
the other. The Radicals send the re-
turns OF the commissioners, and the
Conservatives send certified copies OF
the originals, as deposited with the diff
ferent parish clerks. Both are transcripts
of the election tally lists, and hence will
coincide in every particular. The figures
speak for themselves without any dis
crepancies, and in the matter of protests
we believe that only in the case Of two
parishes were any entered as pre-
scribed by the law. The other con-
test, the fraudulent counts, the for
geries, and the arbitrary rulings, can
be determined quite readily by the
committee, every one Of whom is per-
feetIy familiar with the subject in all
its bearings. There seems no reason,
then, why the results Of the arbitration
should not be known within the next
five days, and the extra session called
In accordance Herewith Immediately.
And here 1t may happen that although
q great deal of time has been lost in
reaching the conclusion to adopt the
Wheeler adjustment, several of the
most Objectionable features Of the prOpO-
sition have likewise disappeared. In call
ing an extra session under this arrange
ment, Governor Kellogg need only des-
ignate the persons who are to constitute
the legislature, as they are announced
by the arbitratOTs, and those persons
can then assemble and organize de uoyO.
This will Obviste the necessity of treat
ing with the Hahn house ss now sitting,
since that house will not then be in ex-
istence. There need be none OF the
''suppliant cringing" so POLITICALLY de-
seribed by the orators Of the anti-adjust-
ment faction, nor need Mr.. Booth be
troubled to conceive how the men,
bers can persuade themselves to return
''under the conditions proposed" Re-
cognition of the Sheridan legislature will
be entirely avoided, and the points Of
dissatisfaction reduced to twOI
First-Acquiescence in the Kellogg
government-which we cOulCn't help
anyhow; and
Second-Agreement not to impeach
Governor Kellogg-which ought to be
quite acceptable, since we could not i'm
peach Kellogg without directly admit
ting what we have always sworn never
to admit, Uiz: his legal and dc jlrc title
as governor.
Altogether, the adjustment must now
appear in a much more satisfactory
light, and although an extra session III
wolves some additional expense 10 the
State, the outlay will be more than re-
paid by the good which our members,

CAMP MEETING.-Thc national camp
meeting at Cedar Rapids, closed last Fri
day morning, and was considered by the
National Association one of the best and
most fruitful meetings ever held in the
State The attendance was large through
out the entire meeting reaching on Sab
bath from six to eight thousand. About
two hundred ministers were in attendance,
including besides Methodist = Baptist,
Presbyterian, Congregationalist, and Ger,
man. Six services were held each day,
beside Ladies' meeting, Children's meet
ing and Ministers meeting. 1t would be
difficult to estimate the number converted
but they were not by any means few.
The weather was delightful, there being
no rain during the meeting; and all that
were in attendance say that it was ''good
to be there"

QUASVUETON, July IJtn, 1910.
Ed. BULLETIN.-It is some time since
we have seen anything in your paper from
our quiet little village, nestled here
among the trees on the banks of the beau
tiful Wapsipinicon. Several items of in
terest have happened during the summer.
The M. E. Church of this place has been
put through a thorough course Of repairs,
SO that it is now in good condition, with
one of the handsomest audience rooms
to be found anywhere. Much credit is
due to Rev. L. 8. Kcaglc for his indomita-
BILE perseverance in this work. In the
face of every encouragement he has
pushed it ahead. The church was dedi-
Gated on the Goth of June. Services
were conducted by Rev. John Crippen of
Waterloo, and the entire amount of
money necessary to pay for the repairs
was raised, and enough besides to put a
new fence around the lots The Congre-
gational society are preparing to remodel
and repair their church. There has been
some other Improvements in the way of
repairing old buildings and fences, SO we
think our town not quite dead yet
The Fourth was celebrated on the Sd.
The day was somewhat unfavorable, but it
cleared up in the afternoon and our vii
lage was literally crowded with people
The exercises consisted of oratiOns by E.
L. Begun and D. w. Bruckart, OF your
city, which were delivered in an able
manner and to the satisfaction of all
present, the playing of base ball clubs,
the parade of the "dumfuzzies," and
grand display of fireworks in the evening
Everything passed off peaceably and quiet
ly, and all went home feeling that they
had had good time.
The Great Pacific Combination Circus
visited our place ON Saturday, the 10th
inst, and drew something of crowd.
AS usual it was followed by sharpers
ready to fleece the money out of any I'M
suspecting man who had any. Several
parties we're victimiZed in small amounts,
and one steady old gentleman, seeing
chance, as he supposed, to invest 800
and draw 5000, went in great haste to
some of the merchants to borrow the de-
sired amount. But they seeing tie trick,
advised the old man not to return, and
he went away very much out of humor,
and invested his small change upon the
wheel of fortune and to his grief lost He
went home feeling badly, but probably Il
wiser man.
And now word with regard to the
political aspects of this place. Though
we failed to send delegation to the last
County Convention, we are not dead by
any means, and we expect to send you
favorable report about the second Tues
day in October. Many disafiected Repub-
licans who voted with the Anti Monops
the past two years, now see that they
were helping to build up the old Bourbon
party, and are willing to return with deep
repentance, and with Hon. s. J. Kirk
wood, Iowa's old war Governor as their
standard bearer, still train under the old
Republican flag and with the party that
served the nation and made it what it is
We want as soon as the campaign is fairly
opened to prepare for an active canvass,
and lay old Shep. Letter out SO bad that
he won't be heard of in the next one hun
bred years. j.

ELK SEEN NEAR Yesterda,

Elk SEEN NEAR MAYNARD.-Y yesterday
morning, as the passenger train on the B.
G. r. & NJ Railroad was coming south,
and But short distance from Maynard
station, the passengers aboard were some
what aroused by the sudden appearance
of an elk, that came dashing along at a
rapid pace toward the train, and when
followed in parallel line with it for quite
distance. Not long after the animal
made his appearance was seen horse
man mounted upon a flying steed, who
followed in hot pursuit, swinging lauat
over his head; and from the manner in
which the horse, as well as the elk bound
ed along, it was evident that they had
been running for some distance, IS both
seemed to be exceedingly fatigued 1t
appears that the horseman was an old
Mexican, as the train was moving so
slowly that he was recognized by the
railroad men, who say that they are we'll
acquainted with him, he having worked
on the road more or less for some time
The elk by this time had become exhaust
ed, and having jumped down small EN-
bankment, lay down, and as the train
lost sight of the exciting scene, the old
Mexican was swinging his lariat over his
head in glecful manner, happy, no
doubt in the thought of the sure captivity
of an animal rarely seen in this section of
the country. In fact, this is the first wild
elk that we have heard of being around
here for years; and there is no doubt
that the old Southerner bounced upon his
prey with as much vengeance as does a
"hawk upon chicken"
For the above information we are in-
debted to A. B. Ecker, Esq, of West I'm.
ion.

by their fortune-telling proclivities.

THINKS 1T WOULD APPEAR RIDICULOUS.
y 1t was our lot, not long since to drop
into a candy and peanut store, which was
recently opened not great distance from
Independence, and in the course of con-
versation we ventured to speak to the
chief-cook of the aforesaid establishment,
the propriety of laying his business before
the public by judiciously advertising in
his county paper, whereupon the gentle
man in question turned to us with the re-
mark that it would "appear ridiculous
for him to advertise his business" This
individual being stranger in the vicinity
where he is situated, and evidently not
familiar with business occupations (most
likely having been reared in the woods)
will pace the floor and sleep upon the
counter for an indefinite period, if the
ideas expressed to us are his sentiments.

Pic NIc.--About fifteen or twenty of
our young gentlemen, accompanied by
their sweethearts, went to Quasqueton
yesterday to enjoy the pleasures of holi-
day and picnic in one of the pleasant
groves of our neighboring village. The
day was delightful one, cool and re-

folks had Il splendid time, with nothing
occurring to mar the pleasure of ALL
