THAT ORDINANCE.

The Union seems much disgruntled be-
cause the ARGUs has done, what it had a
perfect right to do namely, publish the
health ordinance lately passed. The AR
GUS was authorized to make such pubiica-
ton, and it is perfectly legal. for the rea-
son that it does not require any one ''offi-
cial" paper to publish an ordinance in order
be published and any paper in the city can
be designated for such publication. When
there is an official paper then must that
paper be chosen, but when as at present
there is no official paper, then can the
suitable authorities designate any paper
they may choose and such publication is
perfectly valid and legal. As to the Union's
terrible anxiety about the case of it. it is
worth mentioning that the ARGUS is doing
it now at the old rates, ust one-half of the
price that the Union, by Reimers resolu
ton, were anxious to be paid for the same
work. It's fit about three papers publish
ing it is all unnecessary, as there is not
only not three official papers just now, but
not even one, so that no other paper can
publish it without proper authority. As
to where the ARGUS got its authority if
the Union will only be patient it will dis
cover just now it is matter of no interest.
The reason for its publication just now is
that it cannot go into effect without pub.
LEGATION. and so far as cost goes, it win
cost the city just half as much as the
Union would charge if chosen official pa
per, and just half as much as it would cost
under the old plan of two official papers.
Let the Union bide in peace while, and
it win be satisfied

THE coxsr1rUr1orAL AMENDMENT

Politics in Iowa are all twisted and awry
over the coming vote on the prohibitory
amendment. If all republicans were to
vote for it and all democrats against it,
the final result would be but question Of
majorities, but such will not be the case.
How many democrats will vote for it can
never be exactly determined until after
election, but they will be more than most
people think Their reasons for it are va
rieus, but can be generally put into two.
First, many of them approve of the meas
ure and although they never would con
sent to have any such plank in their own
party platform, yet when it is advanced by
the republicans and assured that it is not
partisan question, they will undoubtedly
vote for it. Secondly, many democrats
will vote for it dis means of retaliation on
the Germans that have been for so long up
holding the republican ticket. This class
claim that although the Germans acknowl-
edge that the democratic party advocates
their principles and the republican party
does not, yet they have always voted the
republican ticket and only come to the
democrats when they were in some trouble
like the present. They claim that this
action of the Germans was the only thing
that made the present attempted legisla-
ton possible, for had they adhered to
their principles and voted the democratic
ticket that therepublican party of Iowa,
would never have been strong enough to
have attempted prohihitory constitution
al amendment. With these facts in view
they argue that the Germans have brought
this thing upon themselves through their
determined opposition to democracy and
in consequence have no right to ask or ex-
pect democratic help now
1t seems also there is division in the
ranks Of the Germans, and they will be by
no means solid in its support. It was only
a week ago that the German Evangelical
association adopted strong resolutions in its
favor, and the entire influenceiof that body
will go with the prohibitionists.
The prohibitionists are also wide awake,
and are making strenuous efforts to carry
the state. Fhey are cheered on by an en-
thusiasm that is true fanaticism, but there
fore the more incitive, and are confident
of success.
Another fact that is apparent is that the
