FAMOUS DUEL.
"Most professional men are familiar with
the trial Of the Earl of Cardigan before the
House OF Lords for shooting at Captain
Tuckett in duel. The combat took place
near mill, and was witnessed by the mill
er, his wife and daughter, who were on the
ground few moments after the occurrence
and conversed with the parties. With these
witnesses the Attorney General Of England
was unable to obtain conviction because
he could not prove the identity of the Cap
tain Tuckett who was wounded according
to his description in the indictment. II
Lord Cardigan had been proceeded against
for usurping an Office under the Virginia
statutes he might have pleaded, as the de-
fendant has, thnt he was never convicted:
II he had said he was never engaged In q
duel. the contrary was susceptible OF the
clearest proof. And this because upon the
trial of civil cause different rules pre-.
vail. In the latter the courts decide accord
ing to the preponderanceo OF evidence. 1t
Is obvious, therefore, In many instances an
incumbent might be ousted from an Office,
and very properly, too, upon evidence

The Views Of a Veteran Politician
Clinton Herald

The views of such man as Cocker T.
Clarokson, with his strong, clear brain,
and his forty years experience and OBJ
servation, are certainly entitled to
weight. We met this veteran writer at
the recent State Convention, and heard
confederation from his own lips Of his
endorsement of Hayes policy. He was
equally clear as to the danger of taking
an attitude hostile to the administration,
as it would likely lead to an open break
between the President and his party, and
to Republican defeat in close counties,
districts and States. The breach be-
tween John Tyler and the Wings was
mentioned, and Mr.. Clarkson did not
hesitate to say that but for the blunder
of attempting to drive the President in
to a certain course, an open conflict
would not have occurred, and the Wing
party would have remained united and
victorious. The imperiOus spirit Of
Henry Clay, which would tolerate no
deviation from the line he had marked
out, precipitated denunciation, division
and final overthrow. Mr.. Clarkson
thought this example should be warn
ing to the Republican party now, when
it holds power by a slight tenure, not to
permit the administration to be seYeped
from it's sympathies, and thus ensure de-
feat in the close and doubtful States in
the coming elections. Especially should
this folly be averted when nothing can
be gained with quarrel, while every
thing may be lost. Mr.. Clarkson said
some Republicans may turn their backs
upon the President now, but they will
freely endorse him year hence Such,
in substance, were some of the views of
this veteran politician, which, if we take
into account his ability, his long expert
ence in the political field, and his recent
tour Of observation in the South are
well entitled to respectful hearing by all
Republicans.

Gear on the Temperance Question.

Hon. II. w. Maxwell, President of the
Iowa Temperance Alliance, having writ
ten to Mr.. Gear asking him to define his
position on the temperance question, and
especially upon the 18th or temperance
plank of the Republican platform, Mr..
Gear responds as follows:
BURLINGTON, Ia, July 9, II.
1.-The Hon. H. w. Maxwell.
my DEAR SIR:-Your favors of the
9th of June and July 8, respectively,
are at hand and contents duly noted. |
have been Republican since the organ
ization of the party; have always stood
by the party through good and evil re-
port; have believed and do believe in its
principles as set forth in it's platforms
from time to time by our State and Ma
tional Conventions. The State COnven-
ton which assembled in your city on
the 9th of June last conferred on me
the high honor of nomination to the
chief magistracy of the State. | have
accepted this nomination with gratitude
and I trust with full appreciation on
my pdFb VI lHc grave dHI uCIICdlS lC
sponsibilities which surround this posi-
ton. regard the question involved in
the eleventh resolution Of the State
platform as purely legislative one, to
be determined by the people when they
elect members of the General Assembly
If the people of the State wish to inten-
sify the present law it is their right,
which they will doubtless exercise, to
elect members of the General Assembly
in favor of such intensifcation; if, on
the contrary, they wish to adopt other
and different laws from those now on
the statute books, they will elect mem
bers of the General Assembly who coin
eide with their views The constitution
of the State makes the Governor simply
an executive officer,
Article 9 of Section of the Copsti-
tuition provides that the Executive shall
take care that the laws are faithfully
executed. AS [ understand this, it is
his duty to see that all laws are en-
forced, and [ shall endeavor to discharge
this solemn duty in strict accordance
with the official oath which [ shall be
called upon to take if my nomination
shall be confirmed and ratified by pop
ular election. | have the honor to be
yours truly, j. H. GEAR"

Unfair.


1t looks to our unprej udicod eyes, as
if the Des Moines Register, in its mono
maniacal infatuation with the anti-poli-
cy, is doing itself an injustice and injur-
ing the cause of Iowa Republicanism
For instance, it appcnds to the platform
adopted at the recent convention, the
following resolution, which it takes
great pains to announce was tabled by q
vote of3 to ]
Hesotned, That 1t is the sense of this oonven-
uratcd and pursued by the National Admins
tration is in accord with the principles of the
Republican party
Now, the Register is an able paper, a
leading paper, and being published at
the capital of the State, might be sup
posed to express the real sentiment OF
the party throughout this great State.
But when it resorts to such measures to
build up its opposition to the President,
it stoops to deception and untruth.
Not but that the mere fact, as stated, is
correct; but the whole truth is not Civ
en-. The Register does not For one mo-
ment believe that the resolution was Ia
bled because it was contrary to the
views of the convention, any more than
similar disposition, by the same vote,
of a resolution in opposition to the poll
cy expressed the real sentiment. We
believe it to be the sense of the party in
the State as it was unquestionably the
sense Of the convention to let the Pres
dents plan work out it's own salvation,
and not commit the party either way
upon it now If that be true, how UNI
just, unfair and unworthy the in Register
to resort to such subtertupo and dooep-

would be ravaged by it, and strict
stay it's progress. OF the treatment
when attacked, it is obvious that this is
no suitable place to speak Medical
Journals devote much space to this
branch of the subject, promising with
the uniform and sad admission that a
certain class of cases defy the best re-
sources OF the healing art In these
cases the great nerve centers of life are
at once overwhelmed and paralyzed by
the virulence OF the poison, and few
hours only are required to close the
scene.
AS the readers of the BULLETIN will
surmise, the above has for it's animus
the late epidemic in Byron and surround
ing townships, and, us there has been
and still is much mistaken report con-
corning it, which report is prejudicial to
the interests of business and society. to
say nothing of truth in general, we think
1t proper to state the following facts:
At this writing there is not case in
this vicinity, neither has there been for
some weeks past. There has been to-
tai OF about forty five eases, an unusual
ly large proportion Of which have been
malignant. OF this number, there were
OF scarlet fever proper five, fatal cases.
Four other deaths from complications
distinct from the disease, and W hich de-
termined their fatality, occurred during
the epidemic. OF the first named five
eases, two resulted from sequela of the
attack, they having safely passed
through the fever. In the above enum-
Grafton only genuine cases are included,
there having been a far greater number

\ CORRESPONDENT, describing the
Woodstock, Conn, celebration of the
Fourth where Blaine played the role of
Cassandra in relation to Mexican an
nexation and Chamberlain opened his
long pent up walls of wrath against the
administration, thus mentions the parts
taken in it by two other prominent gen
tlemen. The demonstrations Of the
crowd were very like a snub to the
distinguished gentlemen above men
toned:
DIR. Theodore l.. Cuyler, Of Brooklyn,
followed with an address on temperance,
and gave unstinted praise to President
and Mrs. Hayes for the noble example
they had shown in the matter OF absti
nence from wine on public occasions.
He mentioned several instances on
which this example had been shown;
said he judged Of a man public life by
his private acts, and declared that in
four years the country would see and
acknowledge that Abraham Lincoln and
Rutherford B. Hayes were cut out OF
Ile same DlOck. All JIllS was DIS lOuuly
applauded as everything which had gone
before, and the orations of the day were
brought to close by Mr. Bowen again
reitefating that this was free plat
form, and that every speaker was re-
sponsibie for his own utterances.
There was another lift to the Hayes
side when DIR. Oliver Wendall Holmes
rose to read his poem, and unexpectedly
prefaced it by few lines, which had a
meaning every one seemed to see, tor
they were cheered vociferously. 1t att
erward became known that he had writ
ten them on hearing who were to be the
speakers here, and the topics they
would deal with. The lines were as fol-
lows:
The Ship of State, above her skies are blue,
But still she rocks a little, it is true,
And there are passengers, whose faces white
Show they don't feel as happy as they might.
Yet, on the whole, her crew are quite content.
Since its wild fury the typhoon has spent;
And willing, if her pilot thinks it BEST
10 bead a little nearer South by West.
And this they feel, the ship came to near wreck
In the long quarrel for the quarterback.
Now when she gltdeS Serenely on her way,
The shadows past, where dread explosives lay,
The stiff obstructives' churlish game to try,
Let sleeping dogs and still torpedOes lie,
And so give you all '"Ihe Ship OF state"
Freedoms last venture is her priceless freight.
God speed her, keep her, bless her while she

Amid the breakers of unsOunded years.
Lead her through dangers path with even keel,
And guide the honest hand that holds her wheel.
