HENRY C. LEIGHTON, editor of the
Oskaloosa Herald, one of the prominent
weekly journals of Southern Iowa, died
at his home, in that city, on Thursday
of last week, after brief illness, aged
35 years. Mr. Leighton was young
man of high character, noble impulses
and most genial manners. Not brilliant,
or able in the highest sense of the word,
often impulsive and rash in judgment
and action, he still, by force of manly
character and upright life, secured a
large share of the respect and confidence
of all who knew him, and especially the
warm affection of the entire community
in which he lived. Among the things
that added to his honor, was the fact
that he was a gallant soldier and that
he acquitted himself nobly in that sphere
of duty. His funeral was one of the
most imposing pageant sever witnessed
in Iowa on similar occasion. Over
1000 people followed his remains to the
grave, including large number of the
Masonic fraternity. soldiers, members
of the press, and State and county Of
6cials.

A joke on Jacob the Peace Maker.

Those who know Jacob Rich are also
familiar with his facility for patching
up and salving over political quarrels in
the party, when he has any project on
hand that requires harmony The
Glenwood Opinion thus relates how a
party of waggish fellows took advantage
of this characteristic to play a joke up
on Jacob:
Jacob Rich, the genial executor of a
newspaper in Dubuque, was the victim
Of a joke just prior to the Senatorial
contest that is to good to be lost. 1t is
we'll known that the party of the first
part is warm friend of Senator ALI
son, and of course was interested in his
reelection. There never was any doubt
of this at any time, still Jacob came
down to see about it. Bad blood was
discovered between Chapman and Hat
ton, and Jacob was summoned to calm
the impending storm. Chapman would
not conciliate, and Hatton was ''implac-
able and Jacob in despair. 1t was
kept up for time, until those in the
plot could contain no longer, and they
gave vent to their feelings in roars of
laughter This bewildered the uncon-
scious victim still more, and he gazed
first at one party and then at the other
for several minutes before it occurred
to him that the whole thing was well
executed sell of huge dimensions A
party in our city is supposed to have
had much to do with the successful car
rying out of the plot

AFTER two weeks incubation the edi
tor of the Clermont Peoples Paper
brings forth the following:
Judge Toman, in his last weeks BULLETIN,
awarded us the belt for 'grandiloquence" and
Ignorance orsrecklessness, in the Appleman
VS. Smeallie Stewardship question; and then
at once wrenched 1t from us by soaring higher
and getting down lower than we had even i'm
agined the case required or would warrant.
But then, the facts erdctlyas ace stated them,
the Independence Asylum ring of scalpers,
who just now have Judge Tomans ear, to the
contrary Notwithstanding. The end is not yet.
After reading the above, we are no
longer at loss to know whether to i'm
pute tile p Ps statements to ignorance
or recklessness. 1t plainly intends to
maintain its position in the face of
truth and decency If the facts are
as we Gt) stated them,' why does not
the p r. attempt to demonstrate its
statements by proof. 1t has had two
weeks time for preparation to execute
it's dire threat, that it will 'ventilate the
Smeallie bubble until somebody will
cry enough and instead of the ventila-
ton, we have simply logged rcitera-
ton of it's already exploded statements.
The swagger in the last sentence is con-
temptible. In the words Of Hamlet to
the players

faces and begin"

VAN" the Washington correspond
cnl of the Springfield Republican, thus
refers to the efforts to get Mr.. Schurz
out of the Cabinet:
The last drive against Mr. Schurz is
likely to fail, though, if the President
were not an obstinate man he would be
in danger of giving way to the pressure.
For there is an immense pressure for
his removal from the Cabinet. The
gentlemen who want it most happen not
to have much personal interest with the
President. 1t is probably true that
some persons have been dealt with rath-
er harshly, but the motive of the Secre-
tary of the Interior is most praisewor-
thy He is bent on clearing up his de-
partment, and finds it just as impera-
tive to remove few innocent as well as
many guilty clerks. For it often is the
case that an official is on such pleasant
terms with ring" or is by temperae
ment so timid, that be cannot be of ser
vice in hard fight. Nobody can deny
to the head Of a department the right
to select his agents, for to succeed in
any special work they must be men in
whom he has entire confidence.

SHALL WOMEN VOTE.
Mrs. Hooker's Address Before the House
Judiciary Committee
WaShingt on Poet Tor,

Judiciary Committee.
Washington Post Jan 3.
The House judiciary Committee yes
terday heard an address from Mrs. lsa-
bella Beecher Hooker in behalf Of wo-
man suffrage. Tickets Of admission
were issued, and the audience was rath-
err exclusive, and somewhat aristocratic.
Among the ladies present were the
wives Of Senators and Representative
and several noted member of Washing
ton society.
Mrs. Hooker gave the first half hour
to an argument against restricting suff-
rage in the case of men. The safety Of
the Republic required that personal lib
erty and personal responsibility should
go together. Election days are safety
valves. On that day the poorest and
most ignorant man is as good as any
body. He rides in carriage, if he is
too drunk to walk, and he can vote the
first man in the line if he chooses He
drops his ballot, and he is cooled off.
He soon begins to get hold of this idea
OF responsibility, and after while it
will get into his head, that is, if the law
is bad, or the condition of things does
not suit him, it is partly his fault. So,
when gentlemen say to me, We have too
many voters already | reply, Don't
attempt to disfranchise them, but en-
tighten them; for God has sent them
here for a purpose Of his own" and |
say to you, gentlemen Of the committee,
that the ballot in the hands of every
man is the only thing that saves us
from anarchy to-day The more ignor-
ant they are the more they need it, and
and the more we need that they should
have 1T. The great mistake in recon-
struction at the South was, that while
attempting to protect the freedmen by
placing the ballot in his hands, we with
drew the ballot from white men in
large numbers, and thus left whole com
munities in the absolute power of ignor-
ance and incompetency. Amnesty and
enfranchisement should have walked
hand-in-hand. Ballots, not bullets,
would then have ruled, and gradually
the sunny South would have regained
something of its old power and prestige.
She then proceeded to show that uni
versal suffrage had never been tried in
this country or in any other We have
as yet achieved only male oligarchy, a
government of adult men as opposed to
one of adult men and women, with equal
political rights, duties and privileges.
For this reason our ship Of State has
come near to laundering, and, in my
humble opinion, never will the hope of
the perpetuity Of our nation become as
sured until our brothers cheerfully CON
sent to take on board women pilots to
share the arduous duties Of the helm.
She then advocated the passage of
declaratory resolution by Congress, in
regard to the present right Of women to
vote under the National Constitution
interpreted by the Declaration Of indie
pendcnce
The speech was said BY many a Con
gresham to have been one Of transcend
ent ability, especially that portion of it
which was delivered extemporaneously.

The news from the Eastern war are
not so suggestive of the end of hostili-
ties as they might be. Russia, render
ed arrogant and arbitrary by her victo-
ry over Turkey, threatens the peace of
Europe by her ambitious designs. Con-
senting to an armistice to conclude
terms of peace with Russia, she in des
pite of it yet carries on military opera
tons and pushes forward her armies.
The latest intelligence is that the Rus
sian forces have occupied Constantine
ple, which is direct insult to England
and Austria. The other European pow
ers have agreed upon conference at
Vienna to settle questions affecting their
several interests. Upon submitting it
to Russia, she rejects the proposal to
hold it at Vienna or any other great
city. In various ways the Russian bear
is indicating that his great, big, ugly
head needs club, and we hope he will
be taught lesson Of modesty and civil
ity before the muss is over.

In the case of Anderson, of the Lou
isiana Returning Board, On trial at New
Orleans for altering the Vernon Parish
returns, the jury yesterday came in with
a verdict Of guilty with recommends
tion to mercy. The result surprises
nobody; the court was organized to con-
Wet, and as to the recommendation for
mercy, the defendant will probably seek
Justice and fair trial elsewhere. He
may be guilty, but it is nothing less
than farce to submit the question of
his guilt to such Court.

Barking uD the WrGng Tree,

Dubuque Times.
Just now the ground floor Democrats
are elevating their ears anew and pump
ing hoarser wind into their raspine
voices on the Fraud question Here
is the Returning Board Of Louisiana
under indictment for altering the re-
turns" say they, and then they give the
Fraud" another vigorous whirl about
their virtuOus heads. AS the charge in
these indictments does not refer to the
vote or returns on the Presidency, but
only to some local candidates, this ref
erence to the President as his Fraudu-
lency" is seen to be a very amusing ex-
cess of indignant virtue But they will
find it uphill business to besmirch the
President by connecting him with the
Returning Board. If the members of
that Board made an honest count and
return, they only did their duty; if a
dishonest one, they will come to under
stand that crime creates personal re-
sponsibility, and oan neither be commit
ted by proxy, nor punished VIGOROUSLY
These believers about Fraud are not
the deepest reasOners in the world,

TIcE, the St. Louis weather prophet,
has been completely out generated by
the clerk of the weather this winter, the
most of his representations being di-
reetly opposite to the weather at the
times indicated. Tice and his theories
accordingly come in for general fusi-
lade of ridicule from the small and big
wits Of the press. 1t is only another Ia
mentable case of not stopping in time
If Tice had retired from the guessing
business last winter he would have gone
down to history as a wise philosopher.

The redundant circulation of silver
change and trade dollars has become a
great nuisance at New York. Small
traders are loaded down with subsidiary
silver which the banks refuse to take on
deposit. Trade dollars are refused ex-
cept at 1(02 per cent discount, A new
feature of this silver speculation is the
shipment of Mexican and trade dollars
to the South and West for circulation
among the negroes, who have fondness
for the big disks of noble metal We
observe that in California, where the
silver circulation is also redundant,
there is an effort to make the taxes re-
ceivable in silver in sums OF $50, but
this will not probably become a law

THE Democrats on the Committee of
Ways and Means, when the tariff bill
was under consideration, were in favor
of taking tea and coffee from the free
list and imposing tax Of three cents O
pound upon coffee and ten cents on tea,
at the same time voting for reduction
of the tax on whisky. Their action was
purely partisan, for the Democratic par

He says that long acquaintance with
the criminal classes has taught him
that large proportion of crimes result
from ignorance of moral obligations and
of the criminal laws of the country He
therefore suggests to the Legislature of
Iowa that book be published for the
use of common schools which shall con-
tain a simple, concise and complete
statement of the criminal law OF the
State, also the ten commandments and
the sermon on the mount, which embody
the words of Christian civilization;
such book to be read at stated times in
all the achools Of the State.

\ Philadelphian ma

4 Philadelphian named Schrack died
apparently, at twenty minutes before
o'clock on Sunday morning. He had
been afflicted for four months with nerv-
Gus spasms of the heart, and the an
nouncement of his death was not unex-
pected, Some hours after physicians
had pronounced the man dead, the
neighbors engaged in preparing the body
for the undertaker's hands heard a
groan. They discovered that Mr.
Schrack was still living. Restoratives
were used and he regained conscious
ness to discover that his disease of the
heart had disappeared. He had been
numb and speechless for hours before
his supposed death, and he came out of
the stupor without an ache or pain.
During the time that he was uncon-
scious, about four hours, he saw as in a
vision another world and scenes most
beautiful. The case is in every partie-
lllar strange one.
