The Careful Mother and the Model Boy.

both mothers and children, the latter

TOO smart and saucy. The way it happened
was this: Little Mary was prettily dressed,

for her mother to go out to ride. tidy

and said: MARY, you must not talk with
bad boys on the street. | hope you havn't
taken anything from her? Go right along.
and n"verr stop here again, boy!" That

SPEAKING of D. F. Miller, demo-
cratic candidate for elector at large,
the Keokuk Constitution says: Gas
"eariy as 1S4S, Mr.. Miller was elected
"on the Wing ticket, representative
lin Congress from Iowa, but did not
"get his certificate of election because
"of "a fraud perpetrated on one of the
"ballot boxes of western county"
That is to say, that d. +. Miller
manipulated the Mormon vote at
Kanesville, (now Council Bluffs, so
as to get all of it, to the great aston
ishment of Bill Thompson, democrat
ic candidate, whereupon the demo-
cratic canvassing officers at Abba, the
nearest county seat to GAINESVILLE,
where the vote was, by law, returned,
kicked over the stand, blew out the
lights, one night when this vote was
being counted, and, in the excitement,
stole the poll books, by which act a
democratic Congress counted Bill
Thompson in, and Dan Miller out.
Subsequently, those stolen poll
books were found on the person of
Judge Charles Mason, then, as now, a
great leader of Iowa democracy, and
he then, through mistake, delivered
them to Dan Miller.
These early "reminiscences tend to
show that the democratic party at an
early period in the history of Iowa,
was, as now, devoted to the great
idea of reform.

QUITS, SPEECH

Tie City Hall was filed as full as
il could be last night, to hear Hon. NJ.
E. Cults speak on the political issues
of the impending election. For two
hours he interested the audience with
a complete and terrible arraignment
of the democratic party and its rep
resentatives, Tilden and Hendricks.
Occasionally he was interrupted by a
democrat who had more party valor
than discretion, who would ask what
he thought was hard question to
answer, but Cults squelched him cv-
cry time and brought down the house
with rousing cheers. In to-day's pa
per we give synopsis Of his speech
as reported especially for this paper,
and we commend its perusal to all
our readers.
Among those present, were quite a
number of our ladies, and the audi
ence proved conclusively that the Re-
publican camp-fircs are alive and
burning, and that the City Hall is too
small to hold those who desire to hear
our speakers. The next meeting must
be held in the Opera House, if we
would accommodate those who de-
sire to hear.
Among those present last evening,
we are pleased to scy, were a few
democrats, who, for once, at least,
heard some salutary truths.

Gladstone Speaks.

LONDON, Sept. 6.-Gladstone, in 9
pamphlet on the Bulgarian horror;
and the Eastern question, says: 1t il
urgent, in addition to the termina
ton of war:
LIST, To put an end to the anarchicaI
misrule, plundering and numbering
which still dcsolates Bulgaria.
I'd, To make effectual provision
against its occurrence by excluding
the Ottoman government from ad-
ministrative control, not only in Bos-
MIA and Herzegovina, but above all
In Bulgaria.
Sd, To redeem by these measures
the honor of the British name, which
in the deplorable events of the year
has been more gravely compromised
than have known it in any former
period.
Gladstone entreats his countrymen
to insist that the government shall
apply all its vigor to concur with
other States of Europe in obtaining
the extinction of Turkish executive
power in Bulgaria. Gladstone con.
cludes with an appeal for the organ.
lied collection and distribution of re.
lief to the Bulgarians.

VERMONT.

The Green mountain state held its
biennial election yesterday, for Gov
ernor and other state officers, and our
Geographic columns, elsewhere, tell
the story.
No one. not even the most san
guine Fildenite, expected Vermont to
go otherwise than Republican by a
large majority. There are too many
public schools, and too much virtue,
loyalty and general intelligence
abroad among the people of that
state, to fear any other result. The
state had, however, been most thor.
oughly canvasscd by the democrats
and they did hope to reduce the re.
publican majority there, for the NOR
al effect ii might have OH the coming
presidential election.
The result shows probable repub.
lican gain of seven to eight thousand
votes since 1874.
The people Of Vermont understand
the financial and political issues in
volved in this campaign very much
as loyal people do in all the Other
states. and the result there may bt
taken as pretty sure prophecy q
what can be expected in November
all around the horizon.

Reduction in Price Of Gas.

Tie Gas Company propose that if
the city will relinquish its right to
use gas for $l.0O per thousand feet
less than is charged to private con-
sumers, they will reduce the price of
gas generally to $4.OO per thousand
feet when bills are paid at the office
each month before the 10th, or $3.50
when payment is delayed beyond
that.period. 1t is also agreed on the
part of the Gas Company never to in
crease the price beyond the above
rates to the city, and to always fur
nish gas to the city as low as to
other consumers. 1t will require an
ordinance to be passed to accomplish
this very desirable change, and the
Council will undoubtedly agree to it,
as it will be very good thing for
tax paVers
