Those Republican Proceedings.

Ed. Register-Your published proceedings
of the Iron County Republican, Committee
meeting of last week was strictly in accord
with the facts, the card of Mr.. Haywood to
the contrary notwithstanding. They were
shown to Mr.. Haywood and endorsed by him
before publication. No one was endorsed
no one was intended to be endorsed-Hor do
the proceedings show that there was. No one
desired any Endorsement, as it would have
been out of place in a meeting of that kind
merely committee meeting-when harmony
was desired. The call, as stated, foas read
no other was presented or read--snd the re-
Election upon DIR. Goulding, Secretary, is un-
called for and false. The Chairman made an
ass of himself by denying something that did
not appear in the minutes, and charging that
the report was ''garbled," when in fact it
was too full and too true to suit him and his
''sorehead" friends. The only s'garbled" re-
port was that made by the Chairman. / was
sorry to see Mr.. Haywood, after endorsing the
written report, before publication, Gas he adj
mits). persuaded or driven to write so ridicu-
lousy false an explanation, rejecting upon
Dr. Goulding. the Secretary. The immateri-
ally changed or 'garbled" proceedings pub
lished i'm the Herald would never have been
noticed but for the ridiculous card of Mr..

DIED.-At his home in Girard, Kansas, on
Friday, March 21st, 1884, PETER DILTS,
aged 10 years, II months and 90 days.
His only remaining son, VIM. G.. Dilts,
Cashier at Pilot Knob for the st. Lonis Ore
and Steel Company, received telegram
about noon Saturday, informing him of the
unexpected and mournful event. He at
once set out for Girard, and is there now at
tending to the last sad offices of filial affec-
ton. He had been called to Girard only a
few weeks before, in anticipation of his
mothers decease, but after few days she
improved in health somewhat, when Mr.. D..
returned home. At the time he left Girard
his father was in good health for so aged a
person and spoke of his intention to make
his sons home his home in case he survived
his aged,and feeble wife. 1t appears that he
was taken with congestive chill on Thurs
day, and in twenty four hours had ceased to
be of this earth! The deceased was uncle to
the editor of this paper. His life's history
deserves more than mere passing chronicle
of his departure, and we shall in the next
issue of this paper endeavor to publish a
proper obituary.

country is high and rolling, with gentle slopes

The soil is mostly yellow or mulatto clay,

Now, you see nice houses and school houses

with what Difference the young people aud

who boards at the Hotel Iturbide tells me of a
Spanish-Amercan wife there who, though as
well as imprisonment will permit. has not been
out OF her room once In seven weeks except to
go to church confessional doubtlessl once on
sunday. Her meals are sent to her. To see
american ladies out shopping seems to these
