Wyoming, in an action brought by the
United States to recover $14, 600, an alleged
Overpayment to VOORHEES, on star route
mail contract, from July, 1878, to July,
1881. Voorhees, held a contract for carry
ing mails between Fargo and Pembina, Oak.
In 1878 the route was expedited and VOor-
hees swore that the additional service would
require an increase of so per cent. in his
force of men and animals. On this aft
davit IS, 500 year was added to Voorhees,
pay. The route involved no increase of
labor and what Voorhees, obtained was
$14, 342 more than he was entitled to. The
case was placed in the hands of the United
States district attorney, Lamberton, over
year ago, with instructions to prosecute it
in Nebraska. Voorhees, evaded service

THE New York World says since Senator
SABINs speech at Chicago, nominating JOHN
A. LOGAN us the Republican candidate for the
presidency in 1888, it is carefully reckoned
that no less than eleven more or less promi-

recommended that the old ticket should be
turned 't'other end up" even if in the revo-
lutionary process the name of J. 6. BLAINE
OF Maine should tumble out altogether and be
lost in the sawdust of the presidential track
over which Mr.. LOGAN is invited to run. The
latest of the eleven is Col. JOHN c. NEW of
Indiana, new in name but old in politics, who
has come out from retirement bearing an

GAN and Victory in 1885, 1t is very likely

Career of Marshal Campbell.


Mr.. Campbell, the successful candidate, is q
native of Washington county, this state. At
an early age he removed to Pittsburg, where
he became active in local and state politics.
He was Wing, but left that party before it
made its last campaign in 1862, and has since
been Democrat. Soon after the war he re-
moved to Iowa and became a farmer, but still
gave some attention to politics. He was
elected to the state legislature, where he
made himself one of the most efficient mem
bers. 1t was in the day when a Democrat in
the Iowa legislature was something of a rara
avis, but the state soon came to know the
man who never talked without saying some
thing and saying it in way which showed
that he' knew his business. Since that time
he has been chairman of the state committee
of his party until three years ago. when he
retired from politics. Mr.. Campbell has done
much to bring the Democratic party of Iowa
up from hopeless minority to u strong and
hopeful position, with expectations of carry
ing the state this year. He is good business
man and will make an efficient officer.

DIES MONIES, Ia, June 4.-The session
of the Republican state committee lasted
late last night and those who attended are
reticent. 1t is admitted that the proposition
for two days session was fully de-
bated and informally agreed to. This new
departure will give the committee
on resolutions all night to plan temper
ance plank smooth enough for everybody,
which is the prime question to be consid-
cred. Street gossip from high source
to-day says that subcommittee was
chosen to force an arbitration between
Gov Sherman and Auditor Brown, and the
presence of the latter at the meeting
gives color to the assertion. A GLOBE
correspondent, however, is informed that
no such action was taken, but it was admit
ted that the latter was alluded to, and it
was limited that the quarrelmay be inquired
into. There appears to be no question that
there is no vacancy in the auditors office
that the convention can act on.

Keeping the head perfectly clean is
great aid to health. A distinguished ply
stefan, who has spent much of his time at
quarantine, said that person whose head
was thoroughly washed every day rarely
ever took contagious disease, but when the
hair was allowed to become dirty and
matted it was hardly possible to escape in
lection. Many persons find speedy relief
from nervous headache by washing the head
thoroughly in weak soda water. We have
known cases almost wholly cured in ten
minutes by this simple remedy. A friend
finds it the greatest relief in case of rose
cold" the cold symptoms entirely leaving
the eyes after one thorough washing Of the
hair. The head should be thoroughly dried
afterward and draughts of air should be
avoided for little while.
