A Kind Remembrance.

In the early settlement Of this coun-
ty, Samuel r Lewis located on the
Iowa river in Albion, one mile below
Florenceville, on the farm which he
sold to Mr.. Haskins. moving to Gan
ges, Ailegan Co.. Michigan. Mr.. Lew
is while In this county was one of it's
active, enterprising and intelligent
farmers, and at the urgent solicitation
of his democratic friends permitted
the use Of his name in county over
whelmingly republican at the time,
for county Office, running away
ahead Of his ticket. In Michigan, Mr..
Lewis established fruit farm In the
peach belt. These events and the
names Of the men who participated
In them are recalled upon the receipt
Of a crate Of large and luscious peach
es from S. II. Lewis. Ganges, Mich,
by express to William X. Mead, which
arrived on time and in prime condi.
tion Oh Monday. While the peaches
are delicious and highly priced, the
kindly remembrance that prompted
the sending is more sacred and more
highly priced than the gift for it,
value alone. Thanks, Sam. A state
with such men and that produces
such peaches ID entitled to rs many
democratic electors AS the people in
terested can elect.

Judge Hayes meeting at the Court
House yesterday afternoon was not
as largely attended as it deserved.
The fact il the farmers are too deeply
absorbed In their falls work and prep
arations for approaching winter to at
tend an afternoon meeting.
The various phases of prohibitory
legislation were treated upon, show
ing conclusively the effect it has had
upon Iowa, in limiting its increase Of
population from 1880 to 1890, at less
than per cent. while states adjoin-
ing us on all sides had increased more
than ten times as much. And in the
increase of wealth, Iowa has not
been up to the average Of the United
States, while the states adjoining us
have gone above the general average.
In speaking of crime he said that
prohibition had but little effect one
way or another. That your burglars,
forgers, counterfeiters, embezzlers,
bank robbers, in fact nearly all great
criminals were temperate persons,
that men whose brain is befuddled
with strong drink could not concoct
and execute their crimes. The states
with prohibitory laws are six, all re-
publican; in the other states the re-
publican policy being precisely in ac-
cord with the policy Of the democrat
ic demand in Iowa, hence republi-
can in Iowa can repudiate prohibit
ion without injuring his standing in
the national republican party. The
tariff he discussed but briefly. and
our paper being up, his points must
lay over till a future issue.

The Harshalltown Meeting.
Special to the Dubuque Herald,

MARsHALLTowN, Oct. 12.-Gov.
Boies addressed a large audience of
farmers here to day, fully 5000 peo-
pie being present. Rev. ). H. Rhea,
who was prominent figure in the
upper Iowa conference in procuring
the approval of the resolutions con-
demning the governor for suspending
the fines OF persons convicted of vio-
lating the law, is pastor of the Metho-
dist church here, and he will always
have occasion to remember the Gov
ernor's visit to day, for about fifteen
minutes of his time was devoted to
him. The Governor said DR.. Rhea
had personal knowledge of one case
where he had exercised clemency that
probably was not possessed by his
clerical brethren, and that was the
case of Mr.. Winebrenner, of this city,
who had been convicted of keeping q
nuisance and fined $500. A petition
signed by 165 of the most prominent
people in the city had been sent to
him asking for Winebre nner's pardon
Upon that petition was the name of
j. H. Rhea, pastor of the NJ. E.
church. In this case the governor
had done less than DIR. Rhea had
asked. He granted suspension,
whereas the reverend gentleman had
asked for pardon. Yet he has
joined in the severest condemnation
of me. Would it not have been more
in the line of Christian conduct" said
the Governor. If he had told his
ministerial bretheren that there was
at least one case upon which had
acted that was meritorious, and that
it must be excepted from vote OF
sweeping censure, or that the vote
must be carried over his protest. Ha.
anyone heard DR.. Rhea defend me
for doing what he asked me to do
Probably not. But l want you to be
assured that what state is true re-
garding this case. Consequently
have here in my hand the origina
petition with DR.. Rhea's signature
upon it, which any doubter is invited
to examine"
Here the audience sent up a pro
longed shout; land want to say fur
ther," continued the Governor, 'tha,
l had known DR.. Rhea for many
years. He was once the pastor of {
church in my own town. l had learn
ed to esteem him highly, and M
single name upon that petition hat
Us much weight with me in deterln
lining what ought to do in the prem
Uses IA that of DR.. Rhea.'
Gov. Boies then took up the charg'
of Secretary of State Mcfarland, tina
he was pardoning bootleggers befor
they were convicted, and shove,
that in the case referred to the maj
had never been accused OF violatin,
the liquor law. but that he had be
come surety on a bond which ha
been forfeited, and that he had sus
pended execution. The Governor ha
endorsed SO many critics, and ha
done it SO effectively, that people ar
wondering who will have the hard
hood to attack him next.
