The church supper and sociable given by
the ladies of the Baptist society Wednesday
evening, Feb. 26th, was very successful. A
large company was present, the articles for
sale went off rapidly, and the solid, substan-
tial spread provided was well patronized,
thereby swelling the receipts of the evening
to very respectable amount. Probably
Mr.. Mark Mendell felt as well pleased as
any one, as he had the pleasure of carrying
home lovely cake tipping the beam at
"a pounds. He was fortunate enough to
give it the exact weight.
The masque ball given in aid of the Good
Templars society Tuesday evening, Feb.25th,
was we'll attended, although the maskers
We're not so numerous as on former occa-
sion. Still they made very respectable APP
pearance and afforded the spectators con-
siderable amusement in guessing who they
were. Mr.. Mudgett of Belfast furnished
the music, and every body knows he is Sec
ond to none in that line. During the rest
between dances ice cream and cake were
served. All in all it was very pleasant
time and all seemed to enjoy the evening
very much, and the society was happy in the
fact that little more surplus had been add
ed to their funds obtained for the putting
on the finishing touches to the hall they
built last summer.
The variety wedding given by Mr.. and
Mrs. J. j. Shaw at Temple Heights last Fri
day evening was we'll attended. About fifty
of their friends met to congratulate them
on the Goth anniversary of their marriage
and brought with them substantial tokens of
their friendship in various kinds of glass,
tin and wooden ware that were graciously
received by the host and hostess. Every
body present seemed to feel well pleased by
the generous reception accorded them by
Mr.. and Mrs. Shaw and daughter. There
was plenty If amusement for all. The large

The Iowa Democratic Convention
resulted in the overwhelming tri-
umph of the silver forces, and ex-
Gov. Horace Boies was formally
presented to the nation as candi-
date for the Democratic nomination
for President and the Ex-Governor
was elected a delegate-at-large to
the National Convention. The plat
form adopted is as follows:
1.-The Democratic party of Iowa,
in convention assembled, hereby re-
affirms its allegiance to the time
honored Democratic doctrine of bi-
metallism, to the use of both gold
and silver as primary money and the
coinage of both at ratio without
change of limit.
eve hold to the uses of both gold
and silver as the standard money OF
the country and to the coinage of
both gold and silver without dis
elimination against either metal or
charge for mintage.
In the judgment of this conven-
ton, the explicit pledge of the
National Democratic party, if fairly
and honorably kept, requires the
constant effort of every loyal Demo
crat to accomplish the repeal of all
laws heretofore enacted through the
instrumentality of the Republican
party which do, in letter and spirit
alike, discriminate against silver in
favor of gold, and the substitution
thereof of affirmative legislation
which shall upon some terms or
other restore silver to equal rights
with gold in the mints and the coin
age of the country.
eve hereby affirm as a deliberate
conviction of this convention that
the act of.1873, in so far as it demone-
tized silver aud established gold as
the single unit of value, is a flag
rant violation OF one of the most
important provisions of the Gonsti-
tuition of the United States, a viola
ton which every good citizen should
assist in expunging the statutes OF
the Republic.
I'VE therefore favor the inn
mediate repeal Of all laws by which
silver was demonetized and demand
its unqualified restoration to the
right of free and unlimited coinage
in the minis of the United States as
money of final redemption at the old
ratio of Is to /.
I'VE recognize the fact that upon
this question the country has reach
crisis that can be no longer eva
ded nor POSTPONED We know that
the result of the conflict must be a
return to the money of the Consti-
tuition or the substitution therefor
for all time to come of standard of
values born of British aristoeratie
greed, that doubles the purchasing
power of money, and in behalf of
the toiling millions of this Republic
we welcome the conflict and pledge
the Democratic party of Iowa to
stand by the Constitution, to defend
the right, to beat back with all its
strength every wonderful aggres-
sions of the money power of the old
and new world alike, and to aid, to
the utmost limit of its ability, in
restoring to ourselves and our party
the sacred heritage of the final sys-
tenn bequeated to the American
people by the fathers of the Ameri-
can Republic and which was equally
fair and just to all citizens. And
in this effort we cordially invite the
cooperation of all good citizens,
without reference to political afflila-
tions in the past.
