Ten,perance Meeting.

The Temperance meeting held yesterday
afternoon in the McClary's building was
better attended than for weeks previous
The meeting was opened as usual, with
hymn and prayer.
Mr.. Wells stated that he had been ap.
pointed by the Executive Committee
Chairman to preside at all temperance
meetings.
The meeting was addressed by Mr..
Wells, Rev. Mr. Davis, Rev. Mr.. Mann and
Rev. Mr.. Sargent.
The Rev. Mr.. Pegg said that the recon-
mendation of temperance formed large
part Of the word of God, as may be seen by
any student of the Bible who is reasonably
familiar with its teaching,
The gentleman further inunceated the
idea that it is impossible to be true chris
tain and Incorporate at one and the same
time hence the close connection between
temperance and christianity. Hence it
must be admit thattemperance is the hand
maid of morality and social order, and in
proportion as a nation is temperate it is
peaceful and prosperous and as sure as
sorrow follows sin so surely does intempe-
rance produce crime, woe and wretchedness
in the land.
The above Is the substance Of his speech.
Mr.. Nicholson Lee reported 317 names OF
persons who had signed the pledge during
the week.
Rev. Mr.. Sargent moved that vote OF
thanks be rendered to Mr.. Quinby for tho
loan of lumber and Mr.. Allen for organ te
be used this week at the City Hall.

Youthful Incendtary.

Last Saturday afternoon about Is o.
clock, Mrs. Francis Sharper, janitrix OF
No. 6 school, on Walnut street above Third

and Miss Whitaker, both colored, thorough
ly cleaned the rooms, as usual left the fire
in the heater burning to dry the floors.
They returned about SIS o'clock, to attend
to the heater which was generally let out.
AS soon as they entered the building they
smelt something burning. A thorough
search was made, aud papers, books and
states were found lying all over the floors,
and all the doors We're found open.
In going into Miss Smiths room on the
second floor they discovered two fires smol-
dering, not two feet apart two books and
some waste paper had been used to ligh
them with. The floors was slightly burned
Mr.. Hesler was Immediately sent for
who set about investigating the matter.
A boy named Kitchen, saw two boy

their names, and said that they were tw
boys who went to that school. Who eve
they were they feasted themselves on pea
nuts, as may be seen from the quantity c
shells they left behind. 1t was first though
that they got a light from the heater bu

TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

Abram S. Hewitt, chairman, and F.
o. Prince. secretary, of the National
Democratic Committee, have issued
the following address to the American
people
1--WE submit to the country the fol-
lowing review of the events which
have resulted 10 the declaration that
Rutherford B. Hayes has been elected
President of the United States /:
I'm the late political canvass. two
facts stood out prominently.
First, The Republican party, true to
its sectional nature, sought, to unity
che North against the solid South, and
while engaged in this, it also sought
to divide the vote of the South by an
unwarranted use of the army in South
Carolina, Florida and Louisiana.
Second, Troops were sent to those
places when there was neither invasion
nor instruction to require them; with
the Legislature easily to be convened;
the only pretext for their presence was
TO control the State election.
I'm those States, therefore. the
shadow of military power surrounded
each voter and the bayonet glistened
at the polls as be cast his ballot. The
citizens did not enjoy such liberty as
their fellow-Uen in other States; yet.
the elections were unusually peaceful
I''Immediately after the contest, ii
was announced that the Hayes electors
had been chosen. Nothing had then
been learned of the election. except
ing the vote actually cast. 1t has new
or since been disputed that by vote of
the majority the Tilden electors had
been appointed. The announcement,
therefore. could only have been made
IN pursuance of an arrangement to
change the vote shown to have been
given by the people.
s'We charge that after the true result
had been proclaimed. a conspiracy was
formed by the Republican leaders to
reverse the decision made at the polls.

ment towards this result. showed that

TWO PREssDENTs,

Reports from Washington say that
Hayes and Tilden took the oath of
office as President of the United States
yesterday. the former in Washington
and the latter in New York, 1t appea's
that any officer. from Justice Of the
Peace mp, who is authorized to admin
lister oaths, can inangurate the Presi-
dent. who need not necessarily appear
in Washington for that purpose. Be
shat as it may, we do not believe that
Tilden would be party to the farce of
assuming the role of President. That
he il rightfuly entitled TO the Office.
we do not donbt; but by the forms of
law he has been defeated and nothing
remains for him and the party be rep
resepts but to submit 20 the result as
announced by the President of the
Senate aud look to the ballOt-box for
redress of the wrong. If Iilden has
been robbed of twelve votes in Louis
iana, as has been alleged and almost
proved. the fact will be made appar
ent to the public and tie fraudulent
President will go out of Office with a
Senate and House of Representatives
opposed to the usHrpation aud the men
who placed him in power despised by
the honest sentiment of the whole
country. We cons der the rnmor of
Tilden' 3 taking the oath base false
hood, circulated for the purpose OF be-
meaning the man who is rightfully en-
titled to the Presidency.

As an instance of how much the repub-
lican party of this city cares for the labor
ing man. we wo1ld just simply ask them
to inquire how it happened that in re
building the bridges at Rock river all the
hauling of stone is given to Davenport
teams, and majority of the workmen are
citizens of Milan. Of course, the repub-
licans are very sweet upon the laboriDg
man to the extent of perSuading him to
vote the republican ticket, but when it
comes TO the patronage of the party. who
ever heard Of their consulting the interests
of laboring men. It is very necessary, of
course, to hold them in leading strings at
the polls as far as possible, but when there
is public work to be done, and that. too,
when employment is scarce and wages low,
even the small benefit Of giving it to ouI
own unemployed citizens is ignored and
citizens of another state given the prefer
ence. We say to the laboring men of this
city, that while they are looking around tt
find excuses for deserving the only party
that ever practically befriended them
it would be prudent and proper to look
little into the proceedings of these yer.
exemplary good republican friends of their
right here at home. That very nice youn,
man, the nephew of an old public tea
sucker and the seven by nine republican
editor, may be the sweetest of sycophant
so long as they can hold their own little a
to the grind stone, but with all thei
professions of ardent love for workingme
they don't advise the mayor and council I
furnish our own city laborers with work j
preference to citizens Of other places. D
no, that don't concern the sharpening {
