Our County Asylum.

Throughout Iowa county are to be
found those who have been preju-
diced, through misrepresentation
against our county asylum, to the
extent that they regard it as a bur
den. But figures, correctly com
piled, will not lie, and here we give
them hoping that, should any such
impression now prevail, these figures
may serve to wipe It out entirely,
and the institution be upheld as a
profitable one, as it belongs to be-;
The amount allowed and paid by
the state for the care of insane in
Iowa county for the year ending
Sept. 3oth, 1888, as certified to by
the State Board Of Charities and
Reform is $l2,O43.53. OF this
amount So, ,9O9.64 is for its own in
sane, the balance for those of other
counties kept at our asylum. Had
we no asylum the S3,9O9.64 would
not be coming to US from the state
while we would have to pay out
about $4,000 extra for clothing,
swelling the total to over $4,000.
The total expense Of running the
asylum the past year has been in the
neighborhood Of $4,000, and this
from the $4,000 leaves 5000 which
is about the amount saved by the
county through its asylum. Or, in
another light, the $3,909.64 with
$4,000 for clothing added is about
what is saved, the allowance from
the state for keeping Of inmates
from other counties paying the run.

The Republican rally at Highland
on Wednesday evening was the
graudest and most successful poiti-
cal meeting held in any campaign
in Iowa county for many years.
Everybody expected a capital speech
from Mr.. Finnerty, but his effort
ever surpassed all expectation. You
may Judge something Of it when we
state that although the evening was
chilly and the bulk Of bis audience
stood in the street---it being impos-

from "The History of that Willard
Memorial" as printed by the Lever,

ical purposes but in justice to Rev.
II. +. Blake, who is not here to de-
send himself Extract of memorial:
"But about the memorial. In
whose hands did it fall, aud what
respect was paid to it? If that piece
of paper could speak, what a tale it
could tell. Fortunately it can speak,
and the tale it tells is a narrowing
one indeed, In accordance with the
request of the librarian Of the Chi
cago Historical Society, the import
ant documents pertaining to the
Republican convention were gather
ed up and preserved.
After all had been collected, they
were bound in book, and placed in
the Archives Of that society. Among
them is the famous memorial, with
the signatures Of the National
officers Of the w. G. 7. II. inscribed
upon it.
From top to bottom it IS spattersd
with tobacco spittle.
One corner of the memorial is
covered completely by the poisonous
stuff, which has faded after four
years so az 70 allow the inscription
TO be- read through the stain.
l. will probably be claimed that
such disgraceful piece Of business
was wholly accidental, that somu
misehieyous breath Of wind from
Lake Michigan had blown the leaf
from the table, and that some stray
mouthful Of tobacco juice feU upon
It with no intentional disrespeet to
the document
Such an explanation will not
suffice.
No other Of all the documents
filed at the rooms Of tho Historical
Society, was accidentally soiled in
such a manner. The memorial was
fastened to similar memorials from
the several State w. c. 7. Unions,
and no breeze would be liable TO lift
a bundle Of that size 10 the floor.
Il must have been tossed down
by some member Of the committee,
and If the tobacco juice deposited
upon it was accidental, no excuse
can be offered for such cafeiessnesS.

had had the slightest respect Tor

The most effectual way to blot
out the bitterness of the past is for the
people of the two sections to come into
daily contact with each other. When
they do this they see that neither are
half SO bad as they are painted. Such
has been the experience in New York
and in the Southern cities where num-
bers of Northerners swell the popula-
ton. Northerners are given a warm
welcome in the South and Southernern
are made to feel at home in the North.
Sectional feeling at this time is hardly
worth mentioning. Only few poll.
