THE first select party of the season,
given by the Independence Dancing Club,
took place at Kings Opera House last
week Wednesday evening, and proved a
thoroughly enjoyable affair. The excel
lent music rendered by Northrop & HUI
lifts band, the finest in the West, served
to keep all in the best of spirits, and ev-
erything moved off smoothly. We I'M
derstand that the next party is to occur
on next Thursday evening, Nov. %, and
we presume that it will not be lacking in
attraction for all lovers of good dancing.

enough though, until our neighbor began
to slobber oyer it. That unmitigated
flapdoodle about Hayes crushing the

undiluted drivel over the currency ques-

OUR neighbor across the way is much
exercised over the 60 900 Republican ma
jority in Iowa, and the liberal share con-
tributed to it by Buchanan county. He
does not think that the Republican party
is any better than in 1878, when it was
defeated in this county. If that is the
case, the only other alternative is that
the Democratic party is great deal
worse. Besides, cur neighbor should
realize that his demagogueism of times
past has come home to rOost.

THERE is a rumor floating around that
the ladies are about to get up another
Leap Year party. If SO, the men will
have another week of suspense.
Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1876-11-17

The Bulletin charges us with publish
ing matter in relation to Mr. Burdick, that
we we'll knew was forgery. This is UNI
true from beginning to end We have
published no charges against Mr.. Burdick
that we have reason to believe were any
thing but true .-C0nserUatiae.
Our ncighbor mistakes; the charge of
publishing conscious forgery had refer
ence to letter imputed to Gov. Hayes,
connecting him with the American ALI
ance, which was published in the Con-
seryatiye the week before election as gen
uine, though the editor thereof had am
pie means of knowing that it was a
shameless forgery, and had been repudi
ated by Gov. Hayes. So of the charges
against Capt. Burdick. Our neighbor re-
produced them from the columns of a
disreputable organ of Its party in Dubu-
que, we'll knowing that they had been cX-
planned in such Il way as to relieve Capt.
Burdick of any suspicion of wrong dong.
The explanation and material facts, eXcul-
pating Capt. Burdick, the Conservative
never alluded to in the remotest manner.
\ ct in the face of these facts it has the
etfronteyy to say, that it does not design
to do Mr.. Burdick any injustice" Again
the ConeeruatiUe says:
Now, to turn the table on our co tent
porary, does it believe 1t befited its cause
in charging such fragrant crimes on Mr..
Tilden and the Democratic party?
Every material charge that we brought
against the Democratic party was amply
proved. For those against Mr.. Tilden
the evidence was furnished by himself or
by those of his own political household.
We never characterized him half as Sc
verely as did leading organs of the Dem
ocratic party, and men high in its coun-
ellis. No man las ever been more COM
pletely and unquestionably proved Il
fraud by those who have had the best
opportunity to know him than Samuel J.
Tildcn. AS to whether the BULLETINS
exposure of the true inwardness of Mr..
Tilden has benefited its cause, we can
only Judge by the result within its sphere
of influence Taking into account the
fact that the Republican majority in Blu
chanan county this year is over 500
against 225 last year, we should say that
the BULLETINS efforts in showing up the
sham reform and dishonest candidates of
the Democracy, had panned out pretty
we'll At any rate, it is entirely compla-
cent over the result in its immediate field.
How is it with the ConserpdtSSe?'

LEG BROKEN MIR. Peter Hunt rcceiv
ed a very severe accident last Saturday
morning, which will probably place him
in confinement for several weeks. He
was riding horse near his home, at a
rapid pace, and it being quite early in the
morning. the grass was covered with
frost, which made it very slippery. The
horses four feet slipped from under him
suddenly, which precipitated his rider to
the ground with great deal of force.
and falling upon his right leg, it was
broken just above the ankle. Peter think
ing he had received no serious injury,
arose, caught his horse, and pursued his
course. He rode around several hours
before he returned home, and then being
in some pain, he showed his father his
ankle, when it was discovered that it was
badly broken, 1t had swelled SO much
by this time, however, that it could not
be set until Thursday of this week.
