The Boom in iowa.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, July l, 1854.
Friend 7rjbuHe:-I write you a
few lines to let the Iowa county Re
publicans know what we Republi-
cans are doing in the old and reli-
able Republican state Of Iowa.
The campaign is opened here and
is booming. Every ward in the city
has a "Plumed Knight and Black
Eagle" club, and the total member
ship is upwards of 1900. They are
armed and ready for the fight Last
evening a rousing meeting was held.
Judge Hubbard, one Of the favored
few who were chosen to notify
Blaine and Logan Of their nomina-
ton, being the orator of the even
ing. Fully two thousand Republi-
cans, and many Democrats, were
present. ! have been here but a
short time-just long enough to be
a member of the second ward Blaine
and Logan club. The young men
out here are all going to vote for
Jim ard Jack. You can depend on
Iowa for 10000 majority for Jim and
Jack next November.
AS the poet says:
"Iim and Jack went up the hill
To get the nomination;
Jim got there. and so did Jack,
And tonished all the nation"
Next Thursday at II o'clock at
night the prohibitory law goes into
effect in this state. The temperance
people feel, as they should, iubilant.
Every saloon-keeper in the city has
been notified to "close up and get
out" on that day. There are now
but twelve saloons in the city, where
there were formerly about sixty, the
other fifty LOT applying for license
after May LIST
Iowa mas the finest crop prospects
this year ever known in the history
of the state. We are having the
finest of weather, and everybody is
happy.
Ed. Jeukin was here, but went
away this morning. He was max
ing for DesMoines. While ! was in
Omaha, ] saw "Lep" Treyarra, cory
Trenwith, Billy Homes, Dick and
John Weane and Dick Maukey.
All. Maukey is here, and is getting
along nicely; also Miss Urnsou, a
young lady who formerly worked at
the l.. :. hotel

PROGRESS OF THE CAMPAIGN


Bad News for the Blaine Men from Wis
cOnsin-The German Vote for CIeve-
land.
A Republican, who has just returned
from an extended tour through Wiscon-
sin, says a Washington special to the
New York E'0enlRg Post, says that the
confidence of the Republican managers
in the success of their ticket in that State
is not justified by anything which he saw.
SIN fact" said he, ''the situation is criti-
cal, and the condition of things in Wis
consin is not at all understood in the East.
1t is not to be forgotten that two years
ago, as a matter of fact, the Repub-
licans were slaughtered. OF the nine
Congressman three only are Republicans,
and of these three only one was elected by
a majority. The rest are all plurality
Representatives. Last year there were
$4,000 Prohibition votes cast. This year
the PrOhibitionists fix their vote at 10000,
| and the Republicans concede to them TO-
600. A few of the older and more prOmi-
nent Republican leaders have permanent
ly divorced themselves from their party
and have joined the Prohibitionists. This
vote is an element to be very seriously
considered in that State. in view of the
nomination of st. John for President.
most Importance, and it is against Blaine.
Whatever the cause, there Is unquestiOn-
ably deep-seated hostility to Blaine among
the Germans, and nothing that has thus
far been done has tended to overcome it.
The Germans are the natural enemies of
the Prohibitionists, and it might be
thought for that reason that now
that the Prohibitionists are arrayed
IN active opposition to the Republi-
can party, the latter would be
more apt to receive German sympa-
thy. But the contrary is true, for the
Germans say that the Republicans SYM
pathize with the PrOhibitOnists. There
have been reports of Irish disaffection
from the Democrats toward Blaine, and
some priests are said to have recon-
mended their parishioners to vote against
the Democratic ticket. But talked with
every prominent Irishman whom l met,
and not one of them intends to abandon
the Democrats.
'The most that the Republicans can
hope to do with their Congressional ticket
is to retain the three present members,
and possibly to regain two more, but that
is doubtful. The truth is, Wisconsin is
to be put in the list OF the doubtful States.
The tariff element is not to be appealed to
as it was last year. When there are 1000
less men employed in the iron business
about Pittsburg, for instance, than there
were last year, the workingmen will find
it difficult to see how they are 'protec-
ted.' The editor of the strongest German
Republican paper in Wisconsin says that
he is having a hard fight to keep his paper
in the Republican line, and that the drift
in his clientage is all against him."

Magic no More a Mystery-Seen
Across the World.

"Haroun of Aleppo," said Sir Philip Deryal.
"had mastered every secret in nature which
the nobler magic seeks to fathom. He dis
covered that the true art of healing is to as
sist Nature to throw of the disease-to sum
mon, as it were, the whole system to eject the
enemy that has fastened on a part. His pro-
cesses all included the refrigeration of the
principle of life."
In this the Eastern sage merely anticipated
the practice of the best physicians of to-day.
What life itself is, nobody knew then-nObody
knows now. But we have learned something
OF the reasons why the mysterious tide rises
ana rails. Provided the great organs of the
BODY are not irreparably destroyed, medical
science can always relieve, and often save.
let no reputable physician now adheres to
the barbarous and stupid processes of deDle-
ton, such as bleeding, by which it was at
tempted to cure disease by reducing the ma
TENTS ability TO resist 1t. Now a -davs we do
not tear down the fort to help the garrison
we strengthen it.
In this intelligent and benehcent work. it is
conceded that PARKER'S TONIC leads all
other medicines. As an invigOrant 1t acts
Immediately and powerfully upon the circu-
lation and the organs Of digestion, thus giving
n ature the assistance she calls for. 1t follows
that all ailments of the stomach, kidneys and
liver are at once relieved or cured. No other
preparation embOdies the same qualities or
produces similar results. 1t is delicious to use,
and the best known anti-intOXiCant. Price

invited by lady to dinner. The guests
were all seated, and the lady, turning to
Lew, said:
"Mr. Campbell, will you ask a bless

madam" he stammered, dropping his
napkin.
