cratic party. just. now he seeks to
make a left-handed morganatic one ;

dare say that this dalliance, this
double-dealing, is not solely, wholly
and completely that. Office may be OBJ
tanned by James b. Weaver? That
there is not the least spark Of princi-
pie in it?
This question then is pertinent.
Who is to be cheated? If he seeks,
as he does, to cover up how much and
to what extent he promises the one
or the other-we repeat, who would
be cheated in the end were it possible
for him to succeed? Answer, you

The new party1claims to seek espe-

thus, after the country is flooded with
paper money, we shall return to the
good old times of 1865 to 1868, when
the day laborer got 81 per day. Now,
do laboring men ever consider the re-
suit of such a state of affairs? In 1865
it is true that you got 81 per day, but
what did you pay for the necessaries
of life that you then purchased?
Don't you remember that in those
high pressure days you paid so to GO

ago which could be worked into a
negro farce. A young man, we'll

While the pair were whispering
some sweet nothings to each other, q

READER, WHAT sAY your

Gen. James B. Weaver, who has
been in times past honored byth re-
publican party, now makes a union
with Brick -Pomeroy to strike down
the republican party. In this he
asks soldiers and republicans to join
him, and why? Because the repub-
lican party has not met his demands
for more offices. Is there republic
an, or any other man, who does not
believe that If the republican party
had complied with Gen. Weaver's
demands for Office in whole or even
in part, that he would, to-day, have
been battling with the party? 1t
seems to us that nobody will deny
this proposition. Then it is not prin-
ciple, but self-aggrandizement at the
expense of principle, that actuates
him. We venture to assert that the
General will never be found in the
future, as he never has been in the
past, belonging to any party long, or
advocating any party long, except
that party advocates him for Office.
His first advent into the national par
ty isas a candidate for office-other-
wise he would not have been there.
In addition, for Office he has worked
with all his might for some months
past to join the democratic party and

A Wholesale merchant of Indiana

ed gentleman in New York last week,
and claimed acquaintance on the
ground of belonging to the same
church in Indianapolis. The mer-
chant adopted him OH his own intro
duction as Mr.. johnson, and at his
invitation the twain spent the evening
at theatre, where the merchant in
advertantly remarked that he should
leave for home the next evening, TAX
ing with him $4,000 worth Of checks
and drafts. The next evening, there
fore, he was met at the depot by Mr..
johnson and handsome, elegantly
dressed lady whom he introduced as
Mrs. johnson. "He would be de-
lighted and proud if his friend would
take charge of his wife until they ar
rived at Cleveland, where she would

she asked him If he was sound sleep

his heart, he foudly imagined tha,

The Honest Dollar.


In 1864 the greenback dollar would
buy two yards of calico. Now it will
buy sixteen. In 1864 the working
mans $3.50 for a days work would
buy three yards of calico for his wife.
Now his $l.00a day will buy her six
teen.
In 1864 it took the labOrer, working
at 81 so day, twenty-five and hall
days to earn enough to buy barrel
of pork. Now, if he only gets $l.OO
a day, he can.buy a barrel i'm eight or
nine days.
In 1864 the price of days labor
$1.50-was that of three yards OF
brown muslin. Now the price of a
days labor-$l.OO-is equal to that OF
twelve and half yards of brown
muslin.
In 1864 days labor at 81. so would
buy one gallon of molasses. Now a
days work at $l.O0 will buy two and
a half gallons.

wife OF lawyer and though, as it
appears from her petition, she has
been married to him but short time,
she thinks she has learned enough of
law to conduct her own case, and so
save fees. II her petition is true, she
ought to get divorce:

BARGAINING.

Ed. Campbell went to Des Moines
again to-day. He goes to complete
the arrangement, we suppose, to con-
sOlidate the democratic and green
back state tickets. Campbell was
over, Thursday night, to Bloomfield,
and had consultation with Davis
county democrats proposing the bar
gain. The Davis county democracy
deliberately and most emphatically
told Campbell that he might 60
home; that they would not consent
to the withdrawal of Walker or any
other sell out. Some of them used
language most expressive and did not
stand upon the choice of words. We
have no doubt but that mongrel
ticket will be made. Indeed, we have
no doubt it is already agreed upon.
Democracy, however, desires TO Keep

Honesty and reform, it would SEEM

Elsewhere we publish a letter from
Lieut.. Gov. Frank 7. Campbell, sub
stantiating the reportof Gen. Weayer's
speech at Newton, Iowa, June 29th,
as taken by w. s. Briggs, Esq.
Gen. Weaver said at Oskaloosa, in
his discussion with Sampson, that the
report was "no more like his speech
than day is like night" These are
his exact words and in them is con.
tanned a deliberate falsehood. Gen.
Weaver here complained that Mr..
Briggs did not let himself be known
to him. We sent Mr.. Briggs to New.
ton ourselves to find out what that
gentleman was saying and get him
on the record. We were confident
that he was making, from what We
had heard, the most glaring misrep
resentation to thei people and W.
wanted TO get the truth, and hence
we wanted to report him fairly ant
honestly and not let him have tn,
benefit of hedging and ieaving ou
his falsehOods.
Weaver attempted to deny the re
port of his evening speech soon aftel
it was published. He had copy be
fore him of the speech and onl,
pointed out one single insignifican
error, as he claimed in the report a
that time. We have substantiatet

A Machine That Goes by Light.

In the window of Oclschlaeger
Brothers philosophical instrument
store, in William street, is a working
model of new machine which is re-
garded by some spectators as near
to perpetual motion. How
ever, it is turned by the power Of
light. 1t is the invention of an
and consists of four
disks attached to arms radiating from
q central revolving post. One side of
each disk is painted black and the
other white. The black surface alb
serbs and the white surface repels
light, thus revolving the machine. In
order to avoid friction with the at.
mosphere, the machine is placed nn-
der q glass cover, from which the air
has been exhausted. 1t is not heat
that moves the disks, and that the
motive power is light alone is proved
by the fact that the machine will
work oven If placed in an ice-house.
The light of q candle will cause the
machine to revolve slowly, and q
calcium light will incite rapid revo-
lutions. The model on exhibition is
worked by ordinary daylight, but is
not touched by direct rays of the sun.
It is in the shade.

As soon as 10000 men shall be en-
listed, they shall be sent to the reser-
vation, and upon their arrival shall
lay out q city and begin the erection
Of suitable quarters for . permanent
settlement; preparing ground for
agricultural purposes and developing
the mineral resources Of the country.
Each corps is to be furnished by
