REPUBLICANS should remember the
importance of giving strong support to
the legislative ticket next Tuesday.
The fact that all of the vital principles
of the republican party are represented
in this candidate should cause every re-
publican to give earnest and active sup.
port. Our candidate is man of pure
personal character, a man whose record
as legislator proves him to be in sym
pathy with the people. above suspicion,
and a loyal republican. The opposition
is making desperate effort, and stands

THAT Investigation into the county
farm management was very opportune.
1t was a kindness to the management.
While every transaction had been re-
ported in sns way or another, the COM
plete and compact record was not at
general command, so that some wholly
unfounded rumors had been set ahOat
for some purpose or another. But the
investigation by committee of com
petent men has set the pbluic mind at
rest on this item of public interest.
The report shows that every dollar APP
propriated has been honestly and intel
ligently appropriated, that the farm
has been wisely managed, and that bar
ring the loss of stock by disease, the
county enterprise has been fairly sue
cessful. The investigation was
thorough, and the keen vision of the
gentlemen on the committee found that
everything is all right.

Iowa will roll up her accustomed re-
publican majority next Tuesday in the
interests of good government. The
state has prospered wonderfully in years
gone by under republican administra'

dollar has been honestly handled and
duly accounted for. The vouchers
exist in accruing benefits. The good

WHILE there are not many points of
difference between the republican and
democratic parties, the disagreements
are of vital Importance, involving, as
they do, principles of far reaching, state
and national concern. The democratic
party has to some extent been educated
out Of number Of its heresies, but it
still adheres to the pefnieioas doctrines
of tree trade and legal status for the
saloon. These are points which no re-
publican can afford to concede. In fact,
it would be taking step backward for
republicans to indorse by their votes
the democratic platform.-Iimes Re

Churches Temperance,
ELOQUENT APPEAL FROM THE PREsI-
DENT AND SECRETARY OF THE IOWA

ELOQUENT APPEAL FROM THE PREsI-
DENT AND SECRETARY OF THE IOWA
W. c. T. L.
To Io,ca Pastors, Greeting:
Brethren and Fathers: The cOntro-
versy with sin in the human heart, be-
gun in Eden, will never cease till the
gospel which you preach shall do its
perfect work. In society and govern
ment the war continually wages. The
church of Christ is the instrumentality
through which redemptive truth, in
carnate in human life and human &C
ton, becomes dominant in society and
government. The political ernancipa-
ton of men is the glorious fruitage Of
gospel liberty. The dethronement of
localized wrong IN government must
follow close on the dominance of the
truth. The gospel ministry and the
Christian laity are the recognized pow
er which made the prohibition of the
liquor traffic in Iowa possible, and has
given sufficient moral tension to our
people to enforce it. TO the same agen-
CieS we again appeal. The combined
liquor interest of the country now cries,
"On to Iowa." Jubilant with temper
recent defeats in the west, in deSpera-
ton they defy our law and seek to ac-
cOmpliSh its overthrow.
Therefore, brethren, we beg you to
again "cry aloud and spare not. Wa
ken every Christian man and woman
under your charge to the awful sin of
aiding in the repeal of good laws by
their apathy and indifference, and the
imperative duty of doing with their
might all they can to render it absolute
ly impossible for the prOhibitory law of
Iowa to be repealed by the next leglsla-
ture. Duties are ours, results are
Gods" and God requires of every one
to do dis duty. In human law men are
supposed to intend the consequences of
their acts, and are judged accordingly.
In Gods pure sight can one be held
guiltless of results, if through inatten-
ton, wiilfui neglect, or perVerse pur-
pose the moral standard of our state is
lowered, and the overthrow of righteous
law made possible2 ITO license the
liquor traffic Is sin"
We were not responsible for the legal
lied liquor traffic entailed upon us
through our fathers sin of ignorance. "
With Gods blessing our responsibility
for it's continuance in Iowa was met,
and, according to our opportunity, the
state stands redeemed from that awful
heritage. TO now permit the re=estab-
liShment of the accursed traffic in Iowa,
through simple neglect and inactivity,
or wilful blindness, in this crucial hour
will be deeper, darker sin than that
our fathers committed. Therefore,
brethren, we desire that the ministry of
the state will hold special prayer ser
vice on Sabbath, Nov. Bird, to the end
that God by His truth and His spirit
NAV toucb anew Inc Tart and con.
science of His own people, giving Iowa
victory over this awful curse once more,
through the faith and works Of those
who love God and their fellow-mel.

GREEN COUNTS WILD MAN.

Hundreds of Curious People view

Hundreds of citizens visited the Jail
here last evening and this morning to
see typical "wild man of the woods"
who was caught and confined upon an

lives in Whitley Township. this county.
His name Is William Rinehart The
son is about thirty years of age and has
lived all his life in the neighborhood
where he was born. The father is q
rich farmer, possessed of large landed
estate, mostly grown up in woods and
brambles. He is misery in his dispo-

innate. and an old woman, who keeps
house for them, has lived more like O
wild beast than human being. The
young man, William, now here in con-

high. straight as an Indian, 1.-the and

down over his shoulders, and his beard,
long neglected, gives him a fierce as

He refused to work some years ago
and has since spent his time in the for

his own time and pleasure. Until
lately no fear was felt that he would do
harm, but In the last few months when
seen he invariably had an AK, and as
soon aS discovered he would brandish
it and cry out BLOOD! Blood!" and
then disappear. The old man became
alarmed and BY the aid of his neighbors
had him arrested. His head is matted
two inches deep in hair and filth. and

Larrabee for Hutchinson.
THE GOVERNOR EXPRESSES HIS CONF
pENCE IN SENATOR HUTCHINSON
SOUND ON THE RAILROAD ISSUE.


Governor Larrabee responded as fol-
lows to one who inquired of him as TO
the OFFICIAL RECORD and pefsenai charac-
ter of Senator J. &. Hutchinson, the re-
publican candidate for governor:
Many inquiries have been made Of me
concerning Senator HutchiSOn'S legiSla-
tive record on the transportation ques-
ton. presume his record as published
in the papers, purporting to be copy OF
the house and senate journals, Is cor.
rect, I deem, However, the record of
the past, as compared with his present
views and opinions, Of small importance
indeed. This question, Ike all great
public questions, should be viewed and
acted upon in the light of the present,
and not from the standpoint of the past.
Senator Hutchinson consulted with me
frequently during the session of the last
general assembly, when this question
mes under discussion, and I know that
he labored hard to secure the adoption
of the best features of our present law
He has since the adjournment of the
general assembly often expressed to me
his appreciation of the law ana OF the
acIlOn OF our COMMISSIONERS, dul lldo
repeatedly assured me that he consider
ed the rates fixed by them reasonable
and compensatory.
Senator IIutchisOn is an able, high,
minded, conscientious man, and ! have
perfect faith anu confidence in him. II
elected governor l believe he will be &C
tive and energetic in his efforts to en-,
force this law as well as any other in
letter and in spirit and that there will
be no swinging back of the pendulum
with his consent. He Is sound on the
temperance as he is on the transporta-
ton question; and will never consent to
the proposition to open saloons in any
and every township in the state. We
cannot overestimate the Importance OF
sustaining this law In its fullest integ,
rity,
The senator's personal qualities and
his views upon political questions will
in my opinion, make him an admirable
chief executive of this state.
Yours truly,
WM. LARRABEE.

ALAST WORD.

The election occurs next Tuesday.
The REPUBLICAN has so frequently re.
viewed the personnel of the republican
county ticket that whatever we might
say at this time would be but repetition
of familiar truths. The ticket is good
one in every respect and presents to
the voters competent and able men for
the offices to be filed. 1t is the best
ticket in the field and the only one that
offers complete list of candidates
competent to perform the duties of the
offices to which they aspire. They are
all republicans of integrity and honor,
who have in their individual capacities
performed services for the party which
the party should reciprocate as the OPP
portunity affords. While this is true
they are men who will make faithful
public servants and fulfill every obliga-
ton of citizens and officers to the pub
lie. They stand upon the merits and
principles of their party, and in their
official capacity will maintain the dig,
nifty and integrity of that organization
which in making the nomination as
sumed the responsibility for their &C
tons. A better bond or guarantee than
the record of the republican party in
Iowa could not be asked.
And now we urge upon republicans
the unanimous Jealous, working sup
port of the county ticket. Our only
danger to be met and overcome is in
activity. Hearty and united work vii
win us the victory next Tuesday. Work
for the whole ticket. Democrats con
cede the election of a majority OF the
republican county ticket. They do il
willingly, anxious and delighted to VIII
a small portion in the face of safe re
publican majority. But we do not be
lieve that republicans will be willing tc
compromise. The majority believes il
republican principles and believes that
they can be best conserved by republi
can officers, executing and maintaining
the laws in the might of their convic
tons of right and loyalty to party dec
larations and principles,
Then let no republican fail to do hi
whole duty. Support the whole ticket
and close up the republican ranks. II
1886, the whole ticket was elected; il
1887 it was but partial success, Will
again in 1888 the majority of 157 claim
ed its own and called the whole tickle
to public service. Let the victories o
these years, each showing an increase
majority, be appropriately compliment
ed by the election of the whole ticket il
1889. Unanimous work will win com
plete victory.
