'canard." That came by mall ana pea,
the telegram. Our signature on the
books shows, when we received the
dispatch. We are sorry that an in
justice has been done Mr.. Kimball
and cannot understand why the
PLAIN DEALER!should send out infor.
nation that is not true regarding
one OF it's home mcn.-DltbuQa nc
Times. June 16.
Instead of finding any canard in
our paper we found the following in
the Cresco Times credited to the Ores.
co PLAIN DEALER, an article never ap.
pearing therein until now, copied
from the Cresco Times.
Under the Belt.
COLLAPSED NOISE.
The candidacy Of Senator Kimball
for nomination to Office Of Governor,
which has been the constant theme
Of the Cresco Times since last O cto-
Der, collapsed suddenly last Satur-
day, the Candidacy" expiring
thoroughly strangulation, ct the Re-
publican caucus. in Cresco, at which
every one Of Mr.. Kimball's delegates
were defeated ut the hands Of the
republican electors OF Mr.. Kimball's
own town. We question il any other
aspirant to Office, who had SO per-
sistently kept himself before the
people, ever sustained SO ignomini-
GUS a rcbukc from his partisan
friends in his own town. The vote
was nearly three to one against him
il his own party caucus where he is
best known-at home. Like an inn
properly initiate bladder in the
hands OF an indiscrect boy he sud-
denly collapsed in the hands Of his
manipulation, x-deacon Smith.

The only thing "under the belt"
was the Times publishing the fol-
lowing, and palming it off upon the
public as emanating from the dele.
gates to the county convention:
The above article having been cir
culated in slips and to be printed in
the Iowa PLAIN DEALER,.( ca Grecnback
paper for the purpose Of conveying
an idea of hostility to the candidacy
Of Senator Kimhall for the nomina-
ton OF Governor on the part of citi-
zens OF Crcsco, and that the dele
gates chosenarc unfriendly or hostile
to his candidacy, we, the undersign-
ed delegates, desire to declare that
such statements are without any
Foundation in fact; that We are
heartily in favor OF his candidacy
and will use all honorable means tc
secure his nomination ut the coming
Republican State Convention, in the
| selection of delegates thereto.
