Supposed Giants.

Long ago, and, In fact IN almost every
period OF human history, we find reference to
giants, supposed human beings Of enormou,
lie; aRd 40 complete and SERIOUS age the dig
sussions and measurements in many OF the
Did histories aud scientific works that there
ian be no doubt as to the good faith OF tn,
writer's. In the tenth, eleventh and twelfth
centuries some Of the most important contro
Terses among the wise men were in relation
10 these binds" or discoveries, which, it is
ssedless to say, Nore not what they Eele
supposed to be--though certainly giants.
About the middle OF the eleventh century
he scientific world OF Europe was thrown To-.
% great excitement by the report that the
,ody Of Psllas, the sou of Eyander, had been
discovered under the tomb of Emperor Henry
III. The bones were OF immense SIZE and the
Ihders Con ettured That if placed together the
lgure would stand as high as the walls Of
aome. This story was received by the In
lfedHlousi but later the remains were shown
10 DO those OF a fossil elephsut--a giant In
Iced, but not human one.
In the fifteenth century numbers OF fossil
elephants were discovered, which, with hardly
IN exception, were considered giants, and one
,xcavated in pauphne, during the reign Of
!tnuiB sIIt., caused more controversy than
my subject, political or scient'ne, of the
lime. "Ali classes of scientific men were ar
,ayed against each other the two parties be
ing divided as to whether the bones were those
,tAn slelhapt OF the Snt TentObochus.
Later II 1877, the Inhabitants OF Lueerhe,
switzerland, announced to the world that a
viant had been discovered in their precincts.
The announcement was made by dis
.in.uished man OF science. Prof Felix Platter,
II Bseie, who examined the remains by order
u the council and reported as above and
.orthwith the eminent professor was request
ID to make design OF the giant restored,
which he did, giving the figure Of a man
about 20 feet in height, aud this the proud

The Views OF DR.. Denote.

Since election a great many republl-
cans have been sending opinions on
the situation to the Iotra state Regis
ter, and almost every day that paper
has presented page OF these letters.
DR.. G. w. Denote, Of this city, Ander
| date of the 10Th inst, contributes the
following good argument in favor of
maintaining and strengthening our po-
sition;
The time is at hst4 that calls for the
most profound thought of al good peo-
pie of our commonwealth, especially
those who have been chiefly If not
wholly instrumental in giving us our
prohibitoFy Laws.
What will the republican party do
with-what some believe to he - their
elephant?
Let there be no backward step. Pro
hibition is principle adopted by the
republican party because the people de-
clared in favor of it by thirty thousand
majority.
Have the people SAID they no longer
want prohibition? No.
If prohibition was any considerable
factor in reducing the Republican ma
jority at our late election, 1t was be
cause there had been too little of it.
The school boy defined salt to be that
which makes potatoes taste SO bad when
you do not put any Oh tliaR.
Why should a minority, c0ngfegated
in a few of the cities of the state, defy,
and thereby bring into disrepute the
prohibitofy lay more than any other
law.
In all fairness ought the nine-tenths
of the counties of the state in which
prohibition is practically enforced have
saloons thrust upon them against their
wishes because a majority of the people
in the remaining counties are not in
sympathy with the law, at4a 50 will not
see that it is enforcedf
If the law against prostitution is not
enforced in those same cities ought
| that law be repealed? l think it would
be no more unreasonable or detrimen
tai to public health AID aasfals.
Then, if certain city is to be exempt
from the operation of the prOhibitory
statuts why not exempt it from the
other? 1t might then be fenced in ant
have roof put over 1t and bc eae Sran(
saloon and house of ill-fame, all Decaus,
the citizens of that city are not in sym
pathy WITH the will of the majority o
the citizens OF tns commonwealth ant
will not enforce law.
| Law is great educational power
and the best and surest way to educat
in favor of prohibition is the continu
, ance and enforcement of tbs pFohibi
tory law.
If the authorities that be or the pee
, pie will not enfofes the law, why no
have it enforced by special agsacies, a
in the United States revenue law.

A Royal Republican.

"
Rejoicings oyer the downfall of the
last monarchy Oh the American CONT
nents, and the spread of the vine OF lib
erty to the soil of Brazil, may justly be
tempered with regret that it should i'll
volve so wise, humane and progressive
q ruler as Emperor Dom Pedro. He was
a real king, king among men. Ills
reign has been one long progression to-
ward the freedom and other great bless
ings of a republican form Of govern
ment The abolition of slavery, the
gradual enlightenment of the people,
the introduction of modern arts, science
and invention, the steady lifting up of
his people to plane of civilization
where they could rule themselves under
constitutional forms, have been the
aims, and, in a large measure, the ac-
cOmplished features Of his career. He
is altogether unique and picturesque
figure In American history. Dom Pedro,
Emperor of Brazil that was. has earned
the good wishes and sympathy of lovers
of freedom everywhere for being the
forerunner of liberty in Brazil. He was
a monarch whose like we may not see
again, a man entitled to royalty by the
ROYALTY of his nature.

N the streets of New York City last
Saturday Hannah b. Southworth shot
Stephen l.. Pettus, discharging five
shots, each one taking effect, and from
which he died almost instantly. Pettus
was a prominent merchant and had
most shamefuIly wronged the woman
three and half years ago, and since
the statute of limitations had made
prosecution impossible, he had ridiculed
heI sorrow, 50 that frenzy drove her to
the only recourse. She had the Beech
EerKing tragedy as a precedent to
which she furnished faultless counter
part. The Unwritten law with its self
executioners sometimes has
a most wholesome influence.

THE contest for the speakership of
the next house is growing decidedly in
teresting to the contestants and their
friends for the reason that the chances
are so nearly equal. 1t appears that
the eastern candidates have expected
more votes from western congressman
than they are likely to get, which has a
tendency to complicate matters. 1t is
almost a certainty that Reed, OF Maine,
will fall short of the necessary number
of votes, and it is believed that he Will
throw his support as far as possible to
Henderson, of Iowa. However desir
able the election of Henderson might
be to Iowans, the probability of the
election of Mckinley, of Ohio, seems to
be the most reasonable outcome. The
republican caucus is called for next

TIE people do not, we believe, prop
erly appreciate the labors and services
of the district judges. Their verdicts,
decisions and instructions are uniform
ly respected and acquiesced in. Their
honor and conscience is above reproacl,
they are above the suspicion of intlu-
ence by bribery, direct or indirect, and
whether the litigants abide their decis-
ions or take exception or appeal it is
with greatest respect. But with all
honor to the results of their labor, the
work they perform is not generally I'M
derstood. The painstaking judge quick
ly informs himself of the business of
the term, and with that in his mind
manages to most advantageously call
up the causes even with dozen attor-
neys pressing their claims for prece-
dence. During trial he hears and
studies the evidence and weighs the
case with his best thought, always so
licitous of ascertaining the exact truth.
And then the law with reference to the
case is not upon his tongues end, as the
person who considers Every man his
own Lawyer" a universal digest might
suppose. The judge burns the mid
night taper to look up precedent decis-
isns. lie scans the lore of score of
volumes, parallels cases with the one
in hand and arrives at conclusions only
after deliberate thought, application of
the law and the influence of presidents.
1t is little wonder that the men thus
burdened with finding the equities be-
tween brothers, each dissenting from
the opinion of the other, and striving to
find settlement so nearly right that
each must recognize its justice, is worn
oy his responsibility. Although in the
midst of congenial society he is remoy-
ed from home during three fourths of
the year. For his year of solicitous
toll he receives $500 which dwin,
dies to about $3.50 after payment
of railroad fare, hotel bills and other
items of personal expense. The public
pays a small salary for this responsible
labor, That the district bench is above
corruption is attributable to the honor
of its personnel, rather than that it is
made independent by the salary.

ALL of those elements of society
which have made accursed the name of
CovingtOn have moved to Sioux City
since Iowa elected q democratic COVER
nor. There has been no change in our
DAVIS, but the character Of the demo
cratic party seems to be such that the
outlaws of the state regard it as sure
protection against prosecution for VIC
lation. 1t is an inference which the
democratic party should be swift to
disprove, but it will not do it. Viola
tors have grown more bold since the
election of Mr.. BOies; they assisted in
his promotion and they trust he will
not prove ungratefui. And, the posi-
ton is consistent. Mr.. BoisS aud his
siquor dealer friends and their long
train of attending evils should exchange
courtesies according to contract. But
how do the mOralists who believe il

This much the distinctive third party
prohibitionists could never accomplish.
