THE NEW IOWA LAW


To-day, (the 4th,) the prohibition of
the manufacture, sale, importation,
handling, swallowing, or otherwise hav-
ing anything to do with spurious, vinous,
or malt liquors, will go into effect in
the state of Iowa. All railways and ex-
press companies having intercourse with
that state have issued orders forbidding
their agents receiving any packages of
the forbidden fluid for shipment to any
p oint in the Hawkeye state. Iowa will
be in state of siege. like beleagured
town in time of war, or blockaded port.
Everything in the nature Of cocktails,
nips, schnitts, schooners, sours, smashes,
juleps, Zwei layers, and all the rest of
the compounds will be contraband. The
tremuleus hummer can ne more crawl at
dawn to the corner grocery for some
thing to restore the tranquility of his
nerves, and to brace him up in time for
another drink. There will be an aboli-
ton Of I'VE won't go home till morning"
choruses which have 50 often rung out
on the post midnight hours of Iowa
towns and villages. There will be no
more lodges for the accommodation of
belated husbands to apply as poultice
to enraged wives; there will be no more
slipping out betw cen acts to see man;
there will be decline in the demand for
cloves, and coffee; the uses of sawdust
will be diminished, and the occupation
of the bung starters, the beer-slingers,
the cocktail mixers will, like Othello's
be gone.
Iowa has had several cyclones which
have effaced villages, up-rooted trees,
stripped hens of their feathers, and per
formed other destructive acts, but it has
never had anything strike it with the
severity of the temperance hurricane
which will envelop it within the next
forty eight hours. The Germans, who
like their beer, will not like this blizzard
which in one moment will sweep the
foamy lager from existence. The Irish
element who are fond of drop and a
sup Of the pure distilled juice of the corn
which they themselves have planted and
harvested, will be equally distressed over
the obliteration of the stills, and the cosy
barrooms in which it was easy, and
pleasant to spend weeks wages in an
evening. The saloon keepers will not
like it, for now they will be forced to
chose between starvation and working
for q living. In short, there will be
great dissatisfaction in Iowa after to-day.

A FEW WORDS TO THE LEGAL VOTERS
IN AUSTIN TOWNSHIP.

We understand there is little opposi-
ton being manifested in the town of
Austin to voting the bonus for building
the Minnesota & Northwestern railroad.
We want to say to our fellow citizens
there, that for many reasons, such oppo-
sltion, if persisted in, will prove detri-
mental to their best interests.
Austin has been trying for many years
to get competing road, frem which she
would expect to reap great advantages.
and what profits the city could not fail to
advance the material interests Of all the
country tributary.
Now, this enterprise, to which you are
asked to contribute only $4,000, is far
more advantageous to your interests than
the St. Cloud, Mankato & Austin road,
which it is conceded will never be built,
for which you cheerfully voted $1,000.
Doubtless the opposition, small as it is,
springs largely from the belief that since
the road will benefit Austin, she will
secure its construction in any case. All
such calculations will prove illusory, for
the change of the route of the Minnesota
& Northwestern can be secured only by a
general concert Of action on the part both OF
the city and the country. Besides, IN all
fairness, each should bear its part of the
necessary expense.
We believe this is golden opportunity
to secure one If the hast roads in tho
country, at small expense, and that the
investment twill 'pay large dividends in
the advance of the value of real estate,
and in the reduction of freights.
We do not learn of any opposition in
the city of Austin, and have no doubt
that the vote will be practically unani-
nous.
We hope and expect that every legal
voter in Austin township, will, next
Saturday, cast his ballot on the right side
of this important question.

which existed under the Magma Charta,
such as missionaries, feudal distinctions
and hereditary rights, and set forth one
grand recognition of the rights of man.
There was marvellous boldness and
wonderful heroism Oh the part of the
signers of the Declaration of Independ-
ence. Think of Is colonies. with only
5000, 900 of people, without an army or
navy, and without finances, standing up
every sea. and possessed of q power not
given to any other nation. What succeed
ed the Declaration? A long struggle of Z
years. We had compact government,
they but handful of people. Their
soldiers were poorly clad, i'll fed, unpaid
and often marked their way with their
bleeding feet, but God intended to found a
free government, and these were the men
through whom he would work. They
had power of endurance that was re-
markable.
l want now to contrast the government
as it was then with what it is now. It
was really no government at all. The
colonies were free and independent.
There was ne money and no way of
getting any. Congress could vote money
but could not raise it. Each colony sent
as many men into the field as it pleased
and no more. The war had to be carried
on without the constraint of regular
government. In 1777 articles of confed-
Grafton were adopted. which were kept
until 1873, and cut Of which it was diff
cult finally to get the people,
Congress had no power to levy internal
tax, or to collect the sums it voted. Peo-
pie lived under government absolutely
powerless for the purposes of a govern
ment. l5
