LOYALTY OF AMERICAN
PEOPLE.

No sooner did the President ask
Congress to declare war, that the
House of Congress was only one
minuet and forty one seconds in pas
sing declaration of war; the Senate
acted very promptly. 1t was a
spontaneous unanimous action with
no desire of dissension nor discus
sion. 1t shows how quick a great
Republic can act when necessary
and again as soon AS the request
made on each states to furnish their
quota, each responded Immediately
and could have offered twice as
many more. Freedom of thought
of the press, and of the people
makes a nation strong, courteous to
the rights of others and a keen sense
to what are equal justice to all other

their southern brothers as to wha,
loyalty, true and equal manhood is,
and we hope will hereafter be more

with his bride. A reception was given
in their honor at the home Of the
groom's sister, Mrs Tom Hughes. Mr..
Waldon has furnished beautiful home
where he and his bride will be at home
to their friends.
Fred Green, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jason CIR cen, the popular young tom
serial artist over on Mcdonald street,
played sly matrimonial game on his
parents and friends last week. He left
Newton Wednesday morning, osten-
sibly for few days visit with young
friends in an adjoining town. But it
turns cut that at Grinnell he was joined
by Miss Phoebe Lucas, of Chicago, and
together they proceeded to Marengo,
where in the evening they were united
in ma rriage by the mayor of the city.
His parents and sisters were somewhat
nonplussed on Saturday evening when
he came home on No. 4, with a ha i'd
somely attired young lady leaning on
his arm whom he proudly introduced
to them as his wife. This is the culmi-
nation Of love-match which had its
begening back several years ago when
the bride and groom were but children.
Fred is Newton boy-born and
raise here, and is the only son of one
of the leading colored families of our
city, and very popular with large cir
Gle of friends. His brides home has
been in Chicago, her mother being the
wife of prominent minester Of the A.
M. E. church, of that city. She is a
near relative of the Lucases of Powe'
sheik county, one of the wealthiestand
most popular colored families in Iowa.
For the present Fred and his bride
arc ming their homo with his parents
but all arrangements are about com.
pleted for the erection of a pretty cot
tage on the lot adjoining his fathers
home on the north, to which he will
take his wife, and where we trust the
proverbial Glove in a cottage will
thrive and grow through long years o
matrimonial life.-The Newton Record
