thing more, than simply using the
roads for postal service. after some
body else had built them.

Up to the first day of July 1892,
there has been paid into the treasury
from the sales of Iowa lands, the sum
of $3,oS1,900. More than half of this
amount was for lands sold in 1885.
There has been donated for railroads
4,9lO,937 acres of land. Now then, in
in the present state of the public mind,
on the necessity of building good roads
with popular opinion favoring govern
ment aid, would it not be reasonable,
proper and legitimate thing for the gov
eminent to return to Iowa an amount
equal to at least one-half the proceeds
from her sale of public lands to be
used in establishing post roads in this
state. This would give her government
aid to the amount of about $4,000, 900.
The older states contributed no lands
to the common national fund, but Iowa
lands were sold to make up the por.
ton OF the government expenses,
which all states alike ought to have
contributed to.

THAT old copybook maxim finds its
most forceful application in the waste of

domestic or social demands. Some day
she awakens from this waste of strength
to the woeful want of it. She has be-

Resolutions.
The republicans of Ottumwa present
to the voters of this city representa-
tive ticket of able and trustworthy
business men and ask their election
because of the conditions set out here
with
/. We arraign the present democrat
ic administration with general extrav-
agance in city expenditures, and mark
ed personal favoritism in the distri-
button of public patronage, which has
resulted in an increase of the public
debt of the city. We hold that the
city of Ottumwa needs at this time,
as never before. a wise, conservative
and economical administration in order
that the expenses may not exceed the
revenues and that the taxes, already
burdensome, may be reduced instead
of increased.
2. The city of Ottumwa needs thor
ough business administration in order
that the waterworks question and other
matters of great Importance may be
handled in strictly businesslike man
ner for the best good of the entire COM
munity
3. We are unalterably opposed to the
city government entering into part
nership with vice, with system of
licensing gambling and prostitution by
means of monthly fines or assessments.
We believe that these evils should be
reduced to minimum. and should new
er exist with the expressed consent and
protection of the municipal govern
ment.
A. We believe that the state mulct
law should be fully, fairly and impair
tally enforced and that the regular
tax should be collected from every
place in the city where liquors are sold
to the public as a beverage.
