HOUK'S IMPUDENCE.

Houk ought not to ask the people
OF this district to return him to Con
gross. He has been faithless and
Improbable servant. He has &C
complished nothing for his constitu-
ents which is worthy of such high
endorsement. On the other hand,
he has not only disgraced himself,
which is a small matter, for he had
often done it before, but he has
brought serious disgrace and re
proach upon the people who are re
sponsible for his election.
If Houk was not dead to every
sense of honor, he would not ask his
friends to again endorse character
so corrupt and liberated with every
vice that prostitutes humanity. His
candidacy, under the surrounding
circumstances, shows degree of
impudence and brazen effrontery
only equalled by his utter ineffieiency
and worthlessness as a member of
Congress.
He has disappointed and deceived
the people who elected him, twice :;
that was largely has fault; if he
should be permitted to deceive them
again it will be their fault.
Even Houk's warmest friends and
admirers ought, for the sake of com
mon decency, and especially for their
own reputation among honorable
men, to draw the line somewhere,
and we would suggest it should be
drawn at the c0JdbOOSe He should
not ask his friends to follow him
further than cell. No. s. This is the
EXTREMIST verge to which he can ask
his Notwithstanding all reasons
able allowance for human infirmity
to give him their support and con
tidence. To go further is not the
zeal of faithful friendship, but the
willful responsibility of a pd1ticeps
crjneieiS.

PLAIN
TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation Of
life, it circulates through every part
of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
If disease has entered the system
the only sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that nothing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition; and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blacken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
BROWNS IRON BITTERs will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part of the system, and it will
not blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively not injurious.

man made this charge against
me. Can you say as much Tor your rec.
ognized leadery Or will you admit, with.

Nelson by letter, and even rendered his
services to work up this county for him;
even further; lie had been at work (for he
is a great worker, and secured the promise
OF several men to support him as u Nelson

you admit still farther that he continued
Nelson advocate until after the second
coming of Kindred tue Great? What in
fuences were brought to bear to produce
the sudden change of heart, ! do not know !;
most likely some of you do. You started
in to control this county ut all hazards re
CARELESS of consequences. Your leader
told me that he would carry this county If
it cost him $500. 1t must have cost some
one several times that amount, and is not
a Kindred county yet. 1t has been com
NOR remark by some of your leaders and
some of your whippsrins that You were
going to send a delegation to Detroit any
way. One of your purity a day or two
since expressed the opinion that he did not
believe that Mr.. Kindred would approve
of any such conduct as had been resorted
to here. Innocent youth! Could he not
see? can't anybody see that the same tao,
tics have been resorted to all over the dis
trict? In every county so far as heard
froms eXcept Douglas, where Kindred has
not been successful in carrying the county
he has succeeded in getting up a boiling
delegation. l have not yet heard from
Pope county, which is admitted to be solid
for Nelson, but venture tie prediction
that there will be boiling delegation from
Pope also. further predict that there
will yet be found a boiling delegation from
Douglas county if the men can be bought
without paying too high price for them.
To show yon further the spirit that con-
trolled some of your leaders: one OF them
said openly on the streets of this village
that he should go to the convention pre-
pared ito get the drop" on any man who
attempted to bull doze him. When a
leader makes such threats, what else could
you expect but that your tackles would be
at the convention in + II force, with slung-
shots and revolvers. 1t is true tina,
some of the more respectable men
among you denounced in strong Ian ruage
the ballot box stutfing and chair grabbing
business, and then delighted to honor the
perpetrator by making him chairman OF
your convention and electing him delegate
to the Detroit convention. This struggle
has been q disgrace to Stevens county
Who is responsible for it? Either MIR

Editor Tribune:
Last Saturday the brass band at
tended an old settlers picnic at Elbow
Lake, in Grant county. The boys
left for Herman on the early morning
train, their faces beaming with radi
ance equal to that of their FURNISHED
instruments as they waved farewell
to Morris. Next evening they re-
turned water-soaked, sorrowful, 81
lent crew. But despite their reticence
a story of disaster was plainly legible
on the elongated physiognomy Of
every member. As there are many
contradictory stories purporting to
give an authentic account of the mis-
hap that befell them, I, in the interest
of truth, and for the admonition of
those who in the future may be
doomed to attend picnics,
request that this statement be given
to the public. 1t is true, the writer
regrets to say that it is too severely
true. When the band arrived at Her
man no one appearing to welcome them
they resolved to apprise the citizens
of their presence by playing choice
selection. But this was but partially
successful for the dulcet strains were
audible only in the intervals between
the whistling of the locomotive and
deep snoring of the basso profundo
character. At six o'clock they break
tasted at the Pullman House. After
waiting three hours, in the meantime
having learned that Elbow Lake is Is
miles northeast of Herman, they got
aboard of the band wagon drawn by a
four horse team. This carriage, one

ped expressly for the occasion, but
when about four miles from the object
i've point the seating department sud-
denly collapsed and the passengers
were constrained to take seats on the
bottom of what was formerly the box
and let their feet dangle from the edge.
In this humiliating position they struck
up national air on entering the pic
mic grounds, a fine grove near the
lake. After much marching and
counter marching, old folks process.
sions, school ma rams professions. chill
drens professions, the programme for
the day was opened and ran thus;
Music by the choir, rain; instrument
al music, rain; more music, more rain,
until Gen. Barrett proceeded to deliv-
er an grafton. Then rain insisted, with
unbecoming pertinacity, on having the
floor, SO the orator yielded and the
crowd dispersed. All efforts to re-
unite it availed nothing. The futter-
ing ribbons, waving plumes. and all
manner of ornament and dress assumed
dropping, melancholy expression as if
in sympathy with the minds of the
wearers. Napoleon's retreat from
Moscow will pale into insignifcance
whena full history of the flight which
ensued is given to the world.
The band started back for Herman
under rain which abated not until
that village was reached. Under all
that moisture semblance of merri-
ment was kept up; songs were sung.
