Following up the capture of Loftcha,
really an unimportant outpost, the
Russian commander pressed forward
to the main object of his late move
ments and has invested the fortified
positions of Osman Pasha at Pleona
with all the forces he could muster
something over 100000 men of all
arms, and at least $50 pieces of
artillery, including a number of siege
guns. Osman Pasha is supposed to
have an army of 1000. Hard fighting
took place last week, and it was pre-
maturely reported that the Turks
were in retreat. The situation is q
grave one for both contestants, and
any advantage gained is likely to
prove a very important one. The
Turkish army of Sulieman Pasha is
north of the Balkans, and with that
of Mehemet Ali, is ready and willing
TO assist Osman, if only they can find
opportunity. Immense forces are
mustered on comparatively small
territory, and the world is looking
forward with interest for the next
move in the great game.

There seems to be a question in the
minds of many people regarding the
authority and right Of County Super
intendents to hold Normal Institutes
in their respective counties, and they
feel that when teachers are urged to
avail themselves of the benefits to be
derived from an attendance npoH
them, that those urging the claims of
the Institute are stepping beyond their
authority. Let US examine the School
Laws of Iowa and see how far these
complaints are to be justified by an
intelligent community. Sec. 1859,
School Laws of 1876, says:
"The county superintendent shall
hold ann ually q normal institute for
| the instruction of teachers and those
| who may desire to teach, and with
the concurrence Of the superintendent
of public instruction procure such as
| sistance as may be necessary to con-
| duet the same at such time as the
schools in the county. are generally
closed. To defray the expenses of
said institute he shall require the pay
ment of fee Of one dollar for every
| certificate issued; also the payment
of one dollar registration fee for each
| person attending the normal. He
| shall, monthly, and at the close of
each institute transmit TO the county
| treasurer all moneys 50 received, in
| Guiding the State appropriation of
fifty dollars to be designated a. the
institute fund together with the
| name of each person 80 contributing
and the amount The board of super
visors may appropriate such addition
al sum a. NAV be deemed necessary
for the further support OF such in
stitute."
Note c. under sec. 1863 says:
1.-THE length of time during which
the normal institute shall remain in
County Superintendent. This will
the institute fund. II cannot remain
days. A session from three To six
weeks may be safely undertaken in
most Counties"
Note ID. Of the same section says:
Attendance upon the normal in
stitute will be voluntarily on the part
Of teachers; but young and inexperi-
enced teachers will not expect TO re-
ceive certificates unless of the lowest
grade, without regularly attending
the normal institute. The benefit.
which they will receive will secure
their voluntarily and general attend
ance"
Note E. under the same section
adds:

Utah advices are to the effec, that in
all probability John +. Young, the
youngest of Brigham's three sons,
will succeed his father a. president OF
the Mormon church. He is q young
man who has travelled a great deal,
and since the building of the Pacific
Railroad has made railroad building
his profession. During the last five
years he has lived more in New York
and Philadelphia than in Utah. He
has come in contact with business and
capitalists both in the Pacific and At
lantic states, and would be remarked
for his gentlemanly bearing wherever
he may BIZ. He enjoys refinement
and the best society, and by stranger
he would never be suspected Of being
the heir presumptiye 10 the Mormon
throne. 1t seemed short time ago
that he abandoned his fathers faith.
Previous to lbs associations with the
Gentiles he had three handsome wives.
the last Of whom turned his heart
from Polygamy. He gave the Fl ret a
divorce, as she had desired; the second
had only church marriage with him.
and rs she could not get divorce he
made her handsome allowance and
lived monogamic life, chiefly in
Philadelphia, He returned 10 Salt
Lake about year ago, and his father
Elevated him TO his right hand and
made him his first counselor, and he |
developed back again 10 a faithful |
Amt. 1t is reported that he has re-
ewed his marital felici,ies with with
Ii second wife, and it is said has also
ken to wife the young widow Of his
eceased elder brother.

It;s observed that in Iowa the ira

1t is observed that in Iowa the ira
ditional "hard money" Democracy
has been reorganized as Grand Army
of Demagogues, carrying the banner
of contraction under the guise Of infia-
ton. The State Convention this year
out-did all former efforts at straddling,
lodging and trucking. Its platform
scarcely contained single plain dec
laration except the ultra State rights
dogma and in favor Of the repeal Of
our probibitory and the substitution
of q license liquor law. And the can
didates nominated only worse con-
found the confusion already made. 1t
must have been in emulation Of this
example that our County Convention
labored last Saturday. And If such
thing were possible. they certainly
.'scooped" their model in inconsistent
~ and Discrimination. As in the State,
80 in Cedar county, the whole work
was done, not with desire to perpet-
uate honored party principles, but
simply with the hope Of catching here
4 vote and there vote, and If possible
getting into possession of some Office
and its emoluments. The success or
non-success of their scheming lies
with Republicans. And in deciding
to scatter here vote and there a vote,
every Republican should remember
that other wears are coming, aud that
il is much easier to hold a position
than to retuke it, The Republican
party. whatever its faults, as an organ
ization cannot be spared this year nor
next year. There are very few men,
beers oft who are ready to have it die
now and leave Democracy to admins
ter on its effects--and the country's.
The great National party il made up
of States and the latter of counties.
Shall the Cedar county Republicans
hoist white flag?

to be applied to the general purposes
of the Government.
This is but part of the story. The
United States taxes the banks on their
circulation, deposits, and capital, and
from these sources there has been paid
to the Commissioner Of Internal Rev
enue, during the existence Of the sys-
tenn down 10 1876, the following
amounts:

For the same period the tax on
the banks for State, county and
municipal purposes was about 4,s4S,660
Or for all purposes ....... STA, 3o6, 023
With these figures before you, can
you conceive of more absurd propo-
sition than that which suggests the
abolition Of the national banking sys-
tenn The money derived from this
source must be drawn from some other
quarter if the banking system be des-
troyed. In our own State the banks
pay over $lo6, 900 per annum for State,
county and municipal purposes, and
over SlO4, 600 to the United States
making an annual total of more than
$3.50, 900. Do you want this burden
taken from this associated capital and
placed on your own shoulders: That
is the proposition Of the opponents Of
the Republican party. They demand
the repeal of the National Banking
law, and the consequent destruction Of
the system. With that goes this entire
source of revenue. The $685., 727 800 of
the United States bonds again become
non-taxable even by indirection, and
your property must supply its proper
ton Of the deficiency. But this does
not close this chapter of stupendous
folly. We have always had = paper
currency, and always will have:
specie-resumption will not blot out
paper currency. Its convenience will
ever commend and the people will
have it. When it becomes good as
gold they will want 1t all the more.
We will soon reach that standard and
have an honest paper currency: the
bills will no longer bear lie uDOn
their face But without this 1t Is q
good currency; We never had 80 good
bank mote currency before, and we
shall get no better hereafter.
