The:ohio '.udee''.

Is fioored upon its own threshold
killed and buried on its own dung
hill. Here in Iowa the boiling point
was just reached in this years elec-
ti0n, and it foated to the surface a
couple of demagogues, renegades, Ju-
dases, venders of their birthright for
mess of pottage. They are very
proper and legitimate scum, for the
boiling pot Of repudiation, and it is
very proper now for the democratic
party to shout itself hoarse over the
election OF these scum congressman
and call it q democratic victory. Of
course it is democratic victory and
80 was Bull run.

Sunday afternoon while three OF
four hundred sight-seers were loading
around the entrance to the State fair
grounds, lonesome-le okiug covered
wagon, drawn by faded old horse
and driven by . woman, hove in view
on the Holden road. 1t was plain
enough that some family was ON the
move, and it was soon ascertained
that the family consisted of only Q
woman and two children. The Wag-
ON stopped ~ it reached tho crowd,
and, bending forward to LOOK
on every side, the woman briefly en-
quired
"Bin fout here 2"
A boy answered her that the
State fair was about to open, and
she called to the children under the
cover:
"Sam, you wake up, and Mary you
wake up, here's the biggest crowd Of
folks you ever seen ]"
No one in that crowd had ever seen
such Q homely woman.6he was crosse
eyed, teeth out, nose awry and mouth
big enough for two. A man In the
crowd stepped forward, looked at her
face, and said.
"Madam, we are Offering . pre-.
MUM here for the homeliest wo.
man in America. Do you wish to en-
ter for it?"
"How much 10 it?" she asked.
1.-TWO dollars"
"And how muchll have to pay ?
"Nothing."
"I'm in America now, Amt II"
"Yes."
"Then sot me down 90 the woman
who's going 10 win that q or die.
Here, SaTp, you hold this hoss while
I git down whar' the jedges kin have
Q fair look ct me |"
She got down. The crowd roared
and threw up hundred hats, but
she drew herself up and solemnly
remarked:
.When they offer . prize for the
homeliest woman In America, I'm
going up to the head Of the class
Ike four-hoss team! Whar's the
jedges r
previously addressed her, "you are
entitled to the prize. I believe you
are the homeliest human being I ever
saw. I don't believe you'd look any
the worse II you had ono eye out and
was bald .headed."
"Hand over tho chink," she said
holding out her hand.
He placed . two-dollar bill ON hel
palm, and said:
"Compsnion homely woman o.
America accept this premium I"
"You bet will p was her healthy
reply, and in i've minutes she had
four Of i've dollars in change tossed
ct her. When the shower ceased Oh,
made one step from the ground TO I
seat ON the wagon, shook up the ole
horse, bowed right and left and said
"Now Sam, you git back thar" ani
Mary, you git back thar, and wei
drive along to the fust vacant lot and
20 into camp; fur II l kin take I
prize before the fair opens what XII
we hope fur when the performanc,
gits under full blast |"

From he Chicago Times,

The Lawful Money Of the Future.
In his speech in this city, Jim
Blaine, of Maine, made one admira-
BILE suggestion to the fat money luna
tics, which they and their co-laborers
"the democracy" should make haste
to incorporate in the fiscal creed. He
was trying to bring down to the un-
derstanding of his stupid auditors the
fact that dollar is not las the 1. o. U.
paper will have it, thing made by
the stamp of government, but is q
certain fixed quantity, by weight, of
gold or silver. If a legislative fiat
saying "This is two dollars would
make it two dollars, ''there would be
no use in stopping the money making
here. Why make 1.-two dollars when
you could make it twenty dollars, or
a hundred, lust as well? Why waste
both sides of it? You might make
this side one dollar, and the other
side one hundred dollars, or makeone
side thousand dollars and the other
a hundred, 80 that if you owed a
thousand dollars you could tender one
side in payment, and il you owed a
hundred dollars you could tender the
other side, and If your debt was elev-
en- hundred dollars, you could pay it
by rendering both Sides"
Of course the same plan would ap-
ply to all sorts of ''dollars." Take
the greenback, for instance, which
Mr.. Justice Strong says has been
made by act of Congress an equiva-
lent of the money indicated in the
coinage acts for what is expressed on
its face. If the .Jin of Congress on a |
promissory note, ''This Is a lawful |
dollar" made it dollar, why did
Congress stop money-making there?
Why not stamp on the Treasury note
for 81, "This is lawful money and q
legal tender for six dollars in pay
ment of all debts" and on the Treas
ury note for $40, "This is lawful mon
ey and q legal tender Tor seventy-five
dollars in payment of all debts?"
And why waste one sideof the paper?
Why not put on one side, "This is
lawful money and legal tender for
ten dollars and on the other side,
''This is lawful money and a legal ten
der for one thousand dollars:" If it
be in the power of Congress to make
one side of greenback ten dollars,
plainly it is in the same power of
Congress to make the other side a
hundred dollars, so that treasury
notes should be money not merely on
one side but on both sides.
When the nationals and their CO
adjutors the democrats, get power, the
country may expect to see this eco
nomic plan of ''paper money" carried
out. There will be no waste of pre-
cious paper. As one side will be
made equal to ten dollars by legisla-
lative fat, so the other side will be
made equal to a hundred dollars by
fat. Nay, the power to
create money by fiat, will be, after q
while, extended to the opposite ends
and corners Of the two sides, SO
that the ''lawful" and illegal tender"
money of the future will consist of
pieces of paper divided on both sides
into compartments Of value some
what thus: aT

How he got his Butter.

That tacetious boy, Chase, OF the
Lynden Union say:
we have been experimenting in
the dairy business, find 1t profitable,
and mediate going in extensively.
We have halt Jersey-nothing but
Jerseys are good for anything for but
ter-saved cream for three!weeks and
last week Wednesday morning put it
into a stone churn. We churned till
it was time to take the train on a
pumping excursion, when the hired
girl took the dasher and kept it NOV
ing with the help of the boys till night.
The process was kept up, different
members Of the family taking turns,
until Monday night of this week max
ing five days-we didn't cburn much
Sunday-when success crowned the
effort, and the butter came. 1t was
the purest butter we ever saw-as
white as the driven snow after working,
it was put on the scales and tipped the
beam at two pounds and three quar-
tiers, and we calculate at least a quar-.
ter of a lcund was worn out by the
action OF the dasher. We should
have had full three pounds with a
little better luck churning Now we
want to see 81 Kenerson get another
Jersey, employ three or four more
hired girls for churning and strike into
the dairy business. There is some
thing in it. There is good deal Of
occupation in it.
