Davis County Republican.
An address issued by the National
State Greenback Committee is before
us and furnishes another instance of
cheek. In one place the committee
say, referring to the effort Of the Re-
publicans to succeed by ballot:
SHOULD that fail, they openly pro-
claim, through their organs in the
press, their intention to put Grant in
to the White House by force, and
make him practically dictator. This
is the avowed plan of the leaders of
the republican party, and we know
by long experience that the demo-
Gratis, even if they had the will, have
neither the courage nor the sagacity
to prevent its execution"
AS no republican paper in the
United States has ever asserted any
thing of the kind plain spoken peo-
pie will say that it is lie. The COM
pliment paid the democratic party is
very neat. Again after denouncing
the republican party for attempting
to raise fund TO pay campaign ex-
penses the committee coolly call at
tention of all greenback clubs to the
following resolution ANONYMOUSLY
adopted by the &. b. State conven
| ton.
"Reso1ced, That all members OF
Greenback clubs be requested to con.
tribute at least ten cents per month
for campaign expenses, five cents OF
which should be. retained by the
county committee, and five cents
should be RENTED to the chairman oil
the State Central Committee for gen.
eraJ expenses and that each member
of the State Central committee be re
quested to bring this matter of ex
pensess to the special attention of The
chairman of the county committed
in their respective districts"
That will raise the largest "corrup
ting fund" ever collected by any par
ty. Last year the &. bis. had $500
votes. That assessment would raist
about three thousand flee hundret
dollars a month-as their campaign
lasts the year round the fund tol
Iowa will amount to over $4,000 ,
year. That is about equal to tn,
J grange in its palmy days and ex
plains why so many impecunious fel
lows can put in their whole time will
speeches trying to array one class o
people against another. In anothe
+ place the Committee say;
: Tn this new party Of reform, W
must not foster corruption by making
/. heavy assessments on the candidates
9 These small and regular contribu
: tons. if promptly paid, will meet al
r legitimate campaign expenses, and NJ
} single individual will be over-bur
dened,"
We should think it would meet al
Legitimate expenses" and leave
|, handsome surplus over to be divide
4 among the leaders. We are afrai
the Committee permitted their rapa
, city to get away with their judgement
All, but the greenbackers say W
! don't all pay up-True but some pa
three or four times that amount an
, whether paid or not it shows dec
ded willingness to 'grab" on tn
part of your Committee.

Boss CHEEsE.--Mr. T. SHUTS, repre-
senting the Kirkville cheese factory,
was in the city last Wednesday, and
made sale of a large amount of their
justly celebrated cheese. This facto-
ry is turning out large quantity of
full cream cheese, equal to the best in
the market, which is sold at lower
figures than inferior brands of eastern
manufacture. Mr.. Chamberlain, Of
the Kirkville factory, is one of the
most practical cheese manufacturers
in the State. He is now personally
experimenting the factory, and as a
consequence the factory is turning
out the most even lot of cheese it
manufactured. The right way to
build up such institutions in our
State is for our merchants to patron
ize them. As good cheese as can be
found in the market is manufactured
right here at home. Try the Kirk
vile cheese and our word for it you
will not regret it.
The above is from the weekly Pella
Blade. What the Blade says is sim
ply the truth. The Kirkville cheese
cannot be beat. They now sell as
largely in Oskaloosa and Pella as they
do in Ottumwa, and the reputation
of the cheese is growing with great
rapidly.

many meteorological phenomena
formerly supposed to be wholly ir-
regular aud casual. This periodicity,
when completely understood, will
form a reliable basis for estimating
weather probabilities. Even in pre-
diction, the most difficult part of me-
neurological work of the Iowa Wealth
er Service has made record of which
its members may we'll feel proud.
While it was still in its infancy, Prof.
Hinrichs, availing himself of its rec
ords together with his own and those
of Prof. Parvin, of Iowa City, calcu-
lated the probable character of the
winter Of 1856, predicting, with
wonderful accuracy, every important
feature Of the weather, in its proper
succession. In fact, meteorology has
never undertaken long-range predic-
tons with more marked and encOur-
aging success. But having as yet
very few data on which to base his
calculations, and having, up to that
time, failed to obtain State recogni-
ton and support, the Professor deter
mined to give, for the time, less of his
time and energies to ascertaining the
probabilities, and more 10 collecting
data of all kinds. This work, though
perhaps of less immediate interest,
must be done before the climate OF
Iowa can be thoroughly understood ;
and the people Of the State may well
rejoice that it is being done, and done
so well. Of course, much more might
be done by the State to advance SO
useful An organization. Prof. Hin
richs, who was at the heavy expense
of organizing the service and main
tanning it during its first years,
should no longer be allowed to pay
any part Of its necessary expenses.
He should have paid assistant whose
duty it should be to carry part Of
the heavy load of drudgery insepara-
BILE from the reduction and graphical
representation of so many figures.
But these conveniences, together with
the means and appliances necessary
to the full development of the service,
will doubtless come in time, at least
as soon as the people of the State find
out how earnestly and diligently they
have been and are still being served
by the volunteer observers and their
eminent chief. }. }. IL.

POWER OF THE WAvEs.-Those who
have never lived on q stormy coast, nor
been to sea, can form no adequate idea
OF the effect that can be produced by
the impact Of succession of waves, or
of a single wave What has happened
at Wick, on the extreme northern coast
of Scotland, where q breakwater had
been building for some years past, may
give an idea Of what is meant by wave
power. 1t was found that stones of
ten tons weight were as pebbles to the
waves which had been measured 10 be
here forty-two feet from crest to the
bottom of the trough. The outer end
OF the breakwster. where the storms
beat most violently, was built of three
courses of one hundred ton stones laid
on the rubble foundations; next above
these were three courses Of large, fat
stones, and upon this a mass of con-
crete, built on the spot. of cement and
rubble. The end of the breakwater
was thought to be as immovsble Is
the natural rock; yet the resident engi-
neer saw it slowly yield to the force of
the waves and swing round into the
less troubled water inside the pier. 1t
gave way not in fragments but in ono
mass as if it was . monolith The dis.
placed mass is estimated to weigh about
l $50 tons.

Baltimore, April 5.-A sensation was produced
in social circles here to-day by the arrest of Mrs
Alice Aspold, Of Annapolis on the charge Of
stealing two diamond rings valued at 81 200 from
Garfield Brothers & Co., jewellers. The lady came
from Annapolis this morning on the train, in.

Naval Academy, who took the steamer She en-.
tered Csnfelds and asked to be shown some dia.
mond rings, but left without purchasing subse-
unently the clerk found that two valuable rings
were missing from the tray and their place sup.
Piled by two smaller ones of ofcompsratiyely riling
value. An hour later Mrs AspOld waH arrested
at another iewelTy establishment, where she had
also been examining some diamonds, but with
out purchasing any, She seemed shocked at the
charge, declared her innocence and requested to
be searched, which was subsequently done but
no trace of the valuables found, The lady was
elegantly attiTed in deep mourning, and her ar
raignment IN police station on the charge of
larceny attracted crowds of spectators She at
once sent for Mr. Duker, a wealthy citizen of the
firm of Duker Il Brother who established her
identity and entered security for S3OO0 and the
accused was released under bail TO await the &C.
ton of the Grand Jury.
Mrs. AspOd is the widow of the late Edward P.
