A New dig ARcHY PRoposED.-The
Chicago Tribune Stops all over in
gush about its notion of what is the
policy of the President. It thinks he
is in favor of giving the reins of state
governments entirely into the hands
of the southern chivalry. In its issue
of the I'd, it says:
.Intelligence and property must be
allowed to rule, whatever the ques-
ton Of numbers may be-"
This sentiment is anti Republican.
1t is monarchial. 1t is the foundation
stone of slavery. 1t is atrocious.
Away with it: If it should be the
policy of orr government, and should
be followed to its Legitimate results,
the most intelligent man, provided he
possessed the most property, would
be the sole ruler, and if he ruled as I
tyrant it would make no difference
It would be an oligarehy Of wealth
and egotism, for who could decide tn
question of intelligence but himself
The theory that intelligence ant
wealth must rule is refinement o
the old doctrine of Hthe divine RICH
of kings" which is worthy Of Mephis
ophiles himself-Muscatiae Journal

The Boss Corn Of tho Universe
Grows In IoWavIIto Prairie.

II. G. Jordan, son of James Jordan,
one of the pioneers and well-known
men of the Des Moines valley, has
just received the medal and diploma
for the best corn exhibited at the
Centennial.
Mr.. Jordan raised last year about
12,0OO bushels of this kind of corn, in
spite of the wet weather. We are
informed that it was the ordinary
yellow field corn, many of the ears
being over one foot in length.
One of the ears in the lot which
took the premium at the Centennial
weighed ] pound and 10 ounces.
The Jordans own about 1900 acres
of land in the southeast corner OF
Wapello county, on what is known al
Iowaville Prairie, portion of the
tract, however, as we believe, extend.
ing into Davis and Van Buren, coun.
ties. tits perhaps one Of the mos
productive bodies of land in the
country, and its owners are to be con
graduated on beating the entire
world in raising corn.
We hope some one of them viii
come up one of these days and tell II!
all about how they did it.

Suicide In Muacotina.

The Muscatine Tribune of the Sd
says, that, yesterday was busy day
for Coroner Scott. Scarcely had the
body of Charles Wenak arrived from
New Boston, when the news of the
suicide of B. Staley, in South Musca-
tine, was circulating on our streets.
The Coroner Immediately repaired
to the scene of this new horror, and
found the unfortunate man still hang.
ing to rafter in the garnet of Anton
Fritz's house, with whom he had
been living for three or four years.
The body had evidently been hang
ing there for some time as it was
quite cold. From all appearances il
seems that Staley had tied one end Of
clothes line to rafter, climbed into
chair, slipped moose over his head
and chen deliberately kicked the chair
out from under him, and thus sue.
ceeded in very effectually hanging
himself. When Coroner Scott arriv.
ed the rope was 80 EMBEDDED in the
flesh, that it was impossible to unite
the knot, and he was compelled to Gu,
the rope to get the body down."

The plan involves, as we have here

it seat twelve hundred person. This
will require the building of an addi.

present one, raising the roof to "a

Now, if those young men had beer

Then and Now.

Within the memory of the writer of
this paragraph, farmers were accus-
toned to tickle the virgin soil with a
pillow, the share of which had been
manufactured by the village black
smith, and the mold-hoard by the
village carpenter. Now, the modern
farmer, who thinks he has to bear the
brunt of the hard times and the heat
of the day, in the morning mounts his
sulkey plow, and, riding, enters the
field at Z o'clock with his prancing
steeds, and before noon has accom-
plished more work than the primitive
farmer did in two days. The old log
chain lock has given place to the mod
ern brake for the wagon, and two
horses does the work of six the FAM
lily now 60 to church in the carriage
instead of the well-worn lumber
wagon of thirty years ago, and in
stead Of cutting off the cornstalks in
the spring with the primitive hoe, the
farmer now bitches to his stalk cutter
in the morning, and at night has
chopped up all the stalks on ten
acre field, in one day doing the work
of ten. Who is there of those living
thirty or forty years ago, who does
not remember the old smoss covered
bucket that hung in the WE'LL" the
