THE CHIEF HuMBUG.

Speaking about humbugs Des Moines
has one that should be banished or for
eyer silenced Ia the council of respect
able people. We have often wondered
how long the colored people of this city
would stand the work of an adventurer
in causing disturbances among those
who have been neighbors and friends.
ANY man who will parade before the
public the errors of young girls, when
| Il is entirely unnecessary and uneailed
| for should meet the condemnation OF
all people Any man who will con-
tinnally pursue a young girl and her
| infant until the grave is welcome
place. is fit subject for the darkest
| and deepest spot in the Internal region.
| This man has not stopped with these
things. but he has raised the curtain
from the family circle, and gone forth
with a lie on his lips and SANDER IN his
words, attempting to injure the reputa-
| ton of the family and make enemies
and criminals of friends Such man
will cry stop thief" when he has the
stolen goods in his possession. We be-
lieve the citizens should protect them
selves against such a humbug
If the people want leader
/ for goodness sake select one who has
/ manhood and character. People are
Judged by their representative and 1t IS
| a duty and a matter of self-protectlon
| to speedily put aside the interloper and
llibertine aid general all around hum

TWO BACK NUMBERS.
steve Dorsey and Henry &. Davis
Now Unknown Politically

Now Unknown Politically.
New York seems to be the haven of
the political back number. In an af-
ternoon stroll down Broadway and
through Wall street Que is sure to
meet dozen men who were
once powerful in state and
national politics, but who, for one
reason or another, have fallen by the
way and are now seldom heard of out
side a limited circle Of friends and
business associates.
It was in Wall street that I ran
across ex-senator Dorsey of Arkansas,
when he managed the famous Gar
field campaign, but Still as erect, wide
awake and vigorous as OF old. What
a career Dorsey has had. He has
made and lost three fortunes, and is
now, am told, in fair way to win a
fourth.
Dorsey was born in Vermont and
reared on an Ohio farm. During the
war he served as private in the army
of the Potomac. After the war he
turned up in Arkansas, and by reason
of great natural shrewdness and a
resolute character soon became the
| leader of the band of carpet baggers
who then overran that state. He was
| made chairman of the republican state
| committee, secured a fortune as presi-
lent of the Arkansas Central railroad
whose bonds he had Endorsed by the
| state legislature, and in 1878 was
l.
In 1880 he was chairman of the re-
| publican national committee, and the
story of how he managed the cam
| paign resulting in Garfeld's election is
a familiar one. He was then one of
idols Of his party. In 1881 came the
star route exposure, and with it
Dorsey's political downfall Since
| then he has been engaged in cattle
raising in the west. but in this field
disaster has twice overtaken him.
| The Star route trials cost him .
fortune. He is now making another
rs promoter of New Mexico mining
properties. If Dorsey would tell all
he knows about the formation of Gar.
| fields cabinet and its effect on his
own political fortunes the story would
make most interesting reading and
would give several gentlemen still
| prominent in politics very bad
/ quarter of an hour.
Henry q. Davis, who was Dorsey's
! associate in the senate, now has an
office in one Of the big buildings on
| lower Broadway. He still claims West
4 Virginia as his home, but spends the
greater part of his time in New York.
4 Since he began life as brakeman or
the Baltimore & Ohio road, Davis has
| played many parts, and played
i them well. He has been president
of bank, member of both
branches of the West Virginia
1Alegislature, director in half dozer
Railroads and United Senator for siA
Mars. His interests in West Virginia
