That which has led me To bring
this TO your attention is the long en-
tended notice of the EAGLE and Bea-
con in which Mr.. Geo. j. Babcock al
lows himself TO be interviewed. and
thereby spreads himself over several
squares of paper, in which he aspireS
to notoriety on the claim of being All

declares not to be, a ''tenderfopt," that
is, lac did not come, see and conquer.

country out of the wilderness. lie left

the future, and now coming back finds
ii filled with a rich and populous COM
mnnity. He booms himself rs one of
the prime factors in bringing about
what nowis is. In trying to tell what
he knew he has gone way back of the
time when his beaming countenance
shed such a "halo of glory" over our
valley, and makes statements that
make the genuine old settler smile
Neither Mr.. Babcock nor Mr.. Steele
was in the country when the census
was taken by which the county was
organized, but Mr.. j. NJ Steele did
take the United States census
the following June. 1870. Mr..
Il. did aid the county by voi-
ing for the railroad bonds:

Carl Schurz is in the South, where
he is filling some lecture engage
ments, having spoken at Raleigh, Au-
gusta, Ga, and other places. At Au-
gusta o dinner was rendered him, and
in the course of q few remarks he
said:
II must disabuse your minds OF an
idea which is generally entertained in
the South, and that is that there ex-,
lists in the Republican party, general
ly at tho North q latent dislike for
the South. Such is not the case.
That feeling of animosity, which was
natural after the bitter conflict of
arms between the sections, has entire
ly disappeared from among the great
masses of the people of the North.
Whenever an effort is made to revive
sectional issues it is frowned upon by
the people and regarded as the work
of politicians to serve their own self
ish ends, and not for the good of the
country. When any evidence is Civ.
en- of improvement in the South-of
growth in her wealth and Industries
in the world does it meet
with heartier response or truer
feeling of gladness than in the hearts
of the people of the North, regardless
of party affiliations I deem that it
is but just that I should say this
much for the people generally and
the Republican party Of the North"

NO. 16.
Prohibition In Iowa.

The full text Of the late decision Of
the Iowa Supreme Coust upon the
right to close saloons by temporary
injunctions from courts Of equity, is
more sweeping than the telegraphic
summary showed. The appeal had
been taken upon the ground that no
one had right to complain Of nui-
sance unless he could show that he
was injured by it in his person or
property; second, that the mode Of
proceeding was improper, inasmuch
as it undertook to punish criminal
ofiehse by civil action and thereby
infringed the right Of trial by jury.
The decision Of the court covers these
points completely. 1t afiirms the
right of the Legislature to define nui-
sances at pleasure, and to designate
what persons or classes may institute
proceedings against them. Also that
the present mode works no hardship
to the liquor seller, because it asks
neither for damages nor for punish
ment, but merely that the defendant
may be restrained from continuing to
do an unlawful act, leaving the criminal
proceedings to be carried on at leis-
ure. As the right to prohibit the
sale of liquor had been affirmed many
times previously, it is believed that
this decision places it in the power Of
the temperance workers to close So
looms throughout the state, and that
there is no possible recourse for the
saloon keepers but to secure the re-
peal of the law. It is greatly to be
hoped that the issue may take this
form. Twice a large majority Of the
voters of Iowa have enacted prohibi-
ton; once they were defeated upon a
technicality. The best thing now is
to give the law a complete enforce
ment. If it is q bad law the people
Of Iowa will then find it out.-Chica-
