BAY VIEW, va. May 70, 1871.
To ne Editor of the DisDdtch:
The problem of reducing the criminal
expenses of the State seems TO me 20 be OF
easy solution. Let the General Assembly
enact law that each county shall pay its
own criminal expenses and then see that 1t
is carried ont to the letter. Ifthis be done
there Will not only be less of expense, but
less of crime, for when the iong-suftering
people are walked up to any burden they
will very soon remove it. And nothing
will wake them up so soon and thoroughly
as tax. Very respectfully,
o. Il. HOLIDAY.

following after she was executed and was
sentenced to be hanged on the 22d day of

hanged on that day.

PEOPLES INDEPENDENT CONVENTION on


A cali for an independent state con-
vention for Iowa at Des Moines, june
3, 1891, has been issued for the pur-
pose Of adopting platform ofprinci-
Piles upon which all patriotic Citizens
of the state can unite and also for
nominating a state ticket to be voted
for at the election in November 1892.
Each county is entitled to ten dele
gates, who are TO be selected in county
conventions in which members Of all
industrial organizations, and other
individuals fsvoring independent po-
litical action this year in the Hawkeye
state are entitled to participate.
The call declares that the managers
of both the old parties Of the state
seem utterly unable to take cogni-
zance of the political wants Of the
people and IL there were any effort to
secure the God-given rights Of the
people through either the Democratic
or Republican organizations, it would
be found that they must needs be
Subordinated by party managers, and
made secondary to the forces that
have controlled national Legislation
for quarter of century.
Hence the only way that is open to
shape the politics Of the state in the
interests Of the citizens, is for the
people to rise in their majesty and
might and take the direction of affairs
into their own hands A hot cam
paign and a peoples triumph may be
expected in Iowa,

She demands:
Let the central committee have q meeting at

Yes, let them organize and send
