Boston Herald: Abraham Lincoln
had even less of a record than Gov
ernor Cleveland has, when he was
taken up for the pres dency. He had
served one term in the House, and
had made a campaignfor the Senate
and been defeated. Yet Abraham
Lincoln vas preferred to Seward or
Douglas, with long records. A short
record may be a good one.

nj me LAW IN IOWA.

The prohibition law in Iowa has
been in force a little yer two weeks
and still, it is stated, eighteenth b Of
the saloons Of that State are still
open, dispensing num-" "reform
pop," and other Notwithstanding
beverages. This state of affairs ex-
lists in the river towns where the
temperance workers are obliged to
combat public sentiment. Yet the
disposition on the part of the pro-
hibitionists to enforce the law every
where and under all circumstances
has become manifest, and they an
nounce their determination to deal
summarily with open violators,
while scores of spoilers are at work
where ground for suspicion of secret
sales exist. In the Interior the law
is generally observed, but in the
face of strenuous protests. In
one city of $4,000 people a man
cannot buy a glass of beer or a drop
of spirits, The druggists.can get per-
mits to sell the latter for medicinal
purposes, but they stand on their
dignity and refuse to apply for them
and compel physicians to fill their
own prescriptions when spirits form
a part. This action on the part OF
the druggists is founded on the hope
that the public may become disguised
with the law and demand its repeal.
Murmurs are beginning to lie heard
throughout the State and test cases
will be made to determine its valid
ity. The courts may sustain it, but
from all advices We much mistake if
the Iowa voters do not elect a Legjs-
latare at the mex: election which will
be largely in favor Of its repeal.

New York, saying it was doubtful
whether the state convention OF Ohio

says if General Butler runs as a IAN

canvass he will poll a large vote in
this state including that of nearly
every Greenbacker here, but he must
indicate his intentions very soon for

combinations. They are becoming
impatient and discontented at this
delay. They want and will have a

The Little Duke.

A small but enthusiastic audience gath
erred last night at the opera house to wit
mss the charming opera, Little Duke"
and we are safe in asserting that not one
regretted venturing out in the Indictment
weather,for the entertainment was very fine
and drew almost constant round of ap-
plause from the rising to the falling Of the
curtain.
Miss Bessie Gray, the charming little
actress, sustained the role of the Little
Duke with the most consummate effect.
We rather admire her move in this charac-
ter more than that of the Queen in the
Lace Handkerchief" the short dress and
general girish costume suitng her petite
figure to better advantage. The entire per.
formance was entirely satisfac tory.

A Characteristic Letter.

When Buffalo Bill arrived at Scranton,

tic letter from Sam Clemens, better known
as Mark Twain. The letter followed Mr..
Cody, and "caught on" at Scranton.
ELMIRA, N. Y, September 10, 1884.
Dear Mr.. Cody:
| have now seen your Wild West show
two days in succession and have enjoyed It
thoroughly. 1t brought wildly back the
breezy wild life of the great plains and the
Rocky mountains, and stirred me like
war song. Down to its smallest details the
show is genuine--cowboys, vaqueros, In
diaps, stage coach, costumes and all. II 10
wholly free from sham and inslncerity, and
The effects produced upon me by Its specta-
cles were identical with those wrought up
on me a long time ago by the same specta-
cIes on the frontier Your pony express
man WAS as tremendous an interest to me
Yesterday as he was twenty.three years ago
when he used to come whizzing by from
over the desert with the war news; and
your bucking horses were even painfully
real to me, as rode one of those outrages
once for neSrly quarter of minute. II
is often said on the other side of the water
that none Of the exhibitions which we send
to England are purely and dstinctively
American. II you will take the Wild West
show over there you can remove this re-
proach Truly yours

When Dellah clipped off sauson's locks
that mighty athlete at once became ''as

possession of uyuriant hair would enpble
men to tear open hons jaws, Hiscox & Co.,
would be driven wild in the effort to sup
ply enough of Parker's Hair Balsam to
meet the demand AS It is The Balsqm
prevents your hair from falling out, and
restores the original colored if faded or
gray. Besides it is great addition to the
toilet table simply AS dressing.

OMAHA, NEB., November lS.-Joseph
Cook, arrested at st. Joseph, Mo-, Thurs
day last on suspicion of numbering Leon
ard Roll, farmer, at Blue Springs,
November lst, was arraigned yesterday
for examination at Blue Springs. The
proof was so strong against Cook that at
the conclusion of the evidence the mob
took the prisoner from the officers and
hanged him. The mob then left him hang
ing. The officer cut him down at once,
when they found that he was still alive,
and resuscitated him. He will probably
live TO be choked by official orders. Roll
was murdered for his money.

recount could not avail anything either
way, and this was satisfactorily demon
strated, Cleveland has certainly the
most brilliant opportunities of prov

now In prosperous condition and the
man VINO takes the Presidential chair
does not assume the great political prob
lem OF the early days of the Republican
party and which were so successfully car
ried out under Lincoln and his success
sors. ! believe that Cleveland will make
good President and the country con-
tinue on in its prosperous career"

Miss Cooper, Mr.. Max Fgman and Mr..

There are great many reasons ad-
vanced by our republican friends as to why
Blaine did not carry New York. The St.
John vote is cited as one of them. St.
John received over 20 900 votes in the state;
less than two.thirds of this vote would have
gone to Blaine if ct. John had been out of
the race. The vote cast for Butler, had he
been off the field, would nearly all have
gone to Clevel md. This makes stand
off. What Cleveland lost among the Irish

democratic party, voting solid has major
| ity in New York and the real reason Of
CeveIand's small plurality in the state
must be accounted for by the fact that the
democrats in New York city known as the
county democracy traded off the democrat

for Grace, the antiTammany candidate
