on this continent, an herb that has
spread thoughout the world. In
the fifteenth century it crossed the
Atlantic, and captured Spain and
afterward Portugal. Then the
French ambassador took it 20 Par
is, and captured the French empire,
and Walter Raleigh took it to Lon
don, and captured Great Britain.
Nicotiana Is the name ascribed 10
that herb by the botanists, but we
all know it as the exhiliaratinS el-

Mr.. Weller and the Greenback
State Convention

Nashua. June editor Dubuque
Herald: notice in you paper Of
this day on editorial stating that I,
as chairman Of the state central
committee Of the national party,
colled meeting OF the state con-
vention for June Gath, without con-
sulting the other members OF the
committee. This is wholly incorrect.
Whoever may have SO advised WAS
entirely wrong, to say the least OF
it. / not only consulted with the
committee, but being urged by
prominent and influential members
Of the national party in the state, I
caused notice to be placed in the
Iowa Tribune, which was copied into
nearly all the antimonoPoly and
greenback papers OF the state, re-
questing to be advised rs to the
time and place. AS result re-
ceived o multitude Of letters, not
only from the state committee, but
other prominent and influential
men. and the very large majority
were radically in favor OF an early
June convention, and Des Moines as
the place; also for the call to issue
Immediately. In fact, / received
but three or four letters adverse to q
June convention. Thus instructed,
I obeyed. So soon as Gen. Weav-
er discovered that the call was too
early. and gave the river counties
too large representation, / called
the state committee to settle these
points.
Hoping this will appear as acor-
rectton OF error. / am, with high
regards:
i. II. WELLER.

THE IOWA AUDITOR CASE.
Some More Comments by q Repub
lican PaDer.

Chicago Ocean, rep.
The latest developments in the
Iowa authorship muddle Is an elab-
crate letter In the form OF IN affida-
Wit from Auditor Brown to Governor
Sherman, based on the observation
OF the supreme court in its recent
decision in the case: ut IS undoubt-
edly the duty OF the governor to
promptly investigate the matters
specified In the adverse report and
hear such explanation and evidence
as the officer [auditorl may Offer"
As the governor had taken no steps
in that direction. Mr.. Brown took
the initiative himself, going over the
ground carefully, and in detail he
shows that his compliance with the
law governing his duties has been
exact and full. His representations
are sustained by other afiidavits and
y copy OF o certificate OF dep osit
signed by r. i. Chase, cashier OF the
| American savings bank, accounting
for all the money involved in the
case.
The auditor is accused OF with
holding fees for bank examination
amounting in the aggregate to 81 1906.
The governor insists that they be-
long to the state, the auditor that
they do not, but he has deposited
the same In the bank named as q
special fund. subject to final adjudi-
cation. There is no excuse what
ever for keeping him out Of the
Office from which he was elected by
force, and the course OF Governor
sherman Is not only q gross iniust-
ice to a faithful officer, but an out
rage upon the people who elected
him, and one for which there will
yet be a day OF reckoning. Tho ring
which has been In control so long
that it has become insufferably
arrogant and high-handed will yet
be brought to book by the citizens oi
the state. Iowa is too intelligent to
be hoodwinked. The auditor has 50
far waived all questions Of prerog.
ative as to comply fully with the
requirements OF the governor Ia
good faith. leaving the latter nc
excuse for the course he Is pursuing.
The real difficulty, as tho readers
Of the Inter Ocean very we'll know
has been from the fact that Auditor
Brown would not consent to be the
tool OF the Des Moines regency
Rule or ruin is the policy ana pur.
pose OF that junta. He Is wise II
removing every pretext for antagon.
izing him, aud has now put himself
so incontestably in the right that i
Justice should still be refused him
he could we'll afford to take al
appeal to the people, intrust his
case to the court Of public opinion
Ito be decided at the next state elec
ton.

Never growl because . newspaper
fails to give every scrap Of news SO
long as you take no pains to give
the editor information. Tho aver
age editor is neither mind reader
or i medium, and therefore, must
obtain items for his paper through
one or more OF the senses. If YOU
do not communicate to him, thro' the
sense OF hearing, what you have
learned, It Is quite likely that1 such
items will not appear In print. Be-
cause an editor does not know that
you are In possession Of an inter-
esting piece Of news, It should not
be taken for granted that he does
not want It or will not publish it.
Friends Of . paper can aid it more
in this respect than they realize.

The Spirit Moved Them

A preacher in southern Missouri,
after sending his hat around among
the brethren, and vainly urging them
to contribute, clasped his hands,
raised his eyes, and said:
'L0rd, this is the toughest crowd
l have ever fonnd. I have preached
In the Black Jack neigllborhood, and
have ridden the Red Range circuit,
but this congregation occupies q
place little further removed from
the giving spout than any people /
ever saw. Amen"
Then, turning to the sexton, he
said: "I've got two gallons Of old
whisky stored away not far from
here. As don't use liquor myself,
/ aIn going to give it to some worthy
man. Garry the hat around once
more"
The hat came back full of silver.
The preacher went into the woods to
look for the whisky. Up to a few
hours ago he had not returned.
