Details of the Attempts of Anderson's
Men to Break Up an Opposi-
ton Paper.

THE BEE on Saturday morning con-
tanned tho startling announcement
that the Office Of Tho Union-Arrow at
Tabor, which, though a republican
paper, is opposing Anderson, had
been sacked.
Those who have watched the meth
ods used by some Of the Anderson
supporters in this campaign were ready
believers, but some of Andefson's sup
porters tried to throw the charge of
by Saying it was a canard for political
purposes. It proves to be a fact, as
stated by The BEE, that the office
was thus attacked. As the paper is
supporting the republican ticket ex-
copt Anderson, and bitterly opposing
him, the purpose of such an outrage
was evidently to prevent its doing any
more work against him until after the
election. This scheme was in part
frustrated, however, and The Union.
Arrow has been able to give It's own
statement of the affair, from which we
take come of the following details:
Friday, November 8, 1882.
Between the hours of 8 p, M. last
night and 6 a. m. this morning some
person or persons entered the Union
Arrow office, and stole 800 copies of
the Union Arrow, dated November 2,
100 of which were addressed and
wrapped in a package for our Ran.
colph subscribers, and the balance in.
tended for our Tabor list. We usually
get these lists off first, but this week,
having orders for large numbers in
various parts of the district, we for.
warded them first In order that they
might reach their destination the last
of this week. 1t has been quite gen.
orally known that we we're sending 6
considerable number of our papers
over the district for campaign pur
poses, and it has been equally vel
known that we were not supportio.

An Anderson Trick

The chief Anderson organ has been
urging republicans to send IN unfit re-
publican to congress, because his vote
may be needed by the party in settling
the next presidential contest, and
throughout the district Anderson men
have been trying to brighten honest,
but uniformed republicans, by the
Idea that If a democrat is sent to con-
gress it may be the means of electing
q democratic president by one ma
jority. They intimate, and some even
assert openly that in case CT the cleo.
ton being thrown into the house,
each democratic vote will couat as
one. They know very well that this
is not true. In such case the vote is
by states, not by representatives, and
instead of each representative having
d vote, each state casts one vote.
Hence, like other Anderson tricks and
manufactured b~ugbears, there is moth
ing to this argument. There will be
a large majority of Iowa's representa-.
tives who will be republicans, and if
Pussy is elected he will have to yield
to this republican majority, and in
case of an election by the house Iowa
cannot but cast it's vote for a republi-
can president. This attempt to scare
republicans into supporting a corrupt
man for the sake of party will avail
nothing among those who will read
the following from the constitution
itself:
"The president Of the senate shall,
in the presence of the senate and
house of representatives., open all the
certificates, and the votes shall then
be counted, the person having the
greatest number of votes for presi.
dent, if such number shall be a major
ity of the whole number of electors
appointed; and if no person have such
majority, then from the persons having
the highest numbers, not exceeding
three on the lisS of those voted
or as president, the house of
representatives shall choose immedi.
ately by ballot, the president. But In
choosing the president, the votes
shall be taken by states, the repre-.
sentation from each state having one
vote; a quorum for this purpose shall
consist Of a member or members
from two.thirds of the states, and q
majority of all the states shall be
necessary to a choice"

Not eoominR for Anderson.


The Nicola Reporter, with all it's re-
publicsniam, in its parting words be-
fore election, has not a word to say in
Anderson's favor, but after publishing
both democratic and republican
tickets, it Gays: st ia a duty that
every nan owes to himself and his
country that he cast his vote for the
candidate who he thinks will best
serve the people" The Repurter
thus climbs on the fence and waits for
the result, evidently too disgusted
with Anderson to say a word in his
favor, and yet too much afraid of the
party whip to express its honest
opinion.
