We understand that General Liv

it impossible to accept, having been on

speakers in the state whose patriotism
is always ninety in the shade, and who
always interests an audience.

A little two-grain Quinine Pill was
walking down Main street the other
day, when it saw a plumber's Solder
ing lool going down on the other side.
"Come over here on the sunny side
of the street!" called the little Quinine
Pill.
"And catch the ague!' answered the
cautious Soldering Tool: "Not much
I am a bird of piey myself. How's
business?''
'Market's a little shaky this spring,"
replied the little Quinine Pill: "but we
are in hopes it will go all to pieces be
fore the first ot June. Jlow's times
with you?"
"Jiully!" said the boiaring Tool:
"the bottom's dropped clean out of
everything. But why don't you come
around and see us oUenei r Whats
got into your"
"Uh, a little 01 everything except
quinine." said the little Quinine Pill:
"and that s gone up so high since the
tax and duty were taken off it, we
don't touch it any more. Dogwood
bark's good enough for us. Where are
you going this summer?"
"Oh, a litye or everywhere, ' replied
the Soldering Tool: "The old man
bought a steamvacht right after the
last cold snap, and we're all going to
travel.''
And the Soldering Tool aimed a
vicious kick at the hand-saw that was
walking a ten-hour match through
hard piue tor two dollars.
' e are going down to the moun
tains," said the little Quinine Pill,
drawing scornfully away iroui a five-
hundred-dollar poem that was meekly
walking up street to sacrifice itself in
the poet's corner for three dollars and
a copy of the paper: "Master built a
private drawing-room car during our
run on pneumonia, and we are going
out west to look up a new name for
the old liver-pad, and he is going down
into New England to hunt up a new
disease to fit it. The old reliable house
of Mortar & Pestle is going to boom
next season, and don't you forget
that."
"The old man invented a new kind of
pen last winter," said the Soldering
Tool: 'he calls it the bill-pen;' makes
the figure 1 look ju3t like a 9 every
time."
But just then they met the Ice Pick
going to the bank, and the Soldering
Tool took off his hat and shaded his
eyes with bis hand, while the little
Quinine Pill bowed until his sugar-coat
swept the 6idewalk. With a haughty
inclination of the head, the Ice Pick
went on its way t,p deposit one hundred
and seventy-five thousand . dollars.

REPUBLICAN STALWARTS OF
IOWA.
The republican party of Iowa has
alwaynbeen famous for doing business
on grand scale. In its devotion to those
principles which have made the old
party grand in the nation, the Hawkeye
republicans have always been found on
the advance skirmish line: the'v have
the courage of their convictions, never
doing anything bv the halves. We
hope, however, our republican brethren
in Iowa have not went too far. There
are good republicans in that state, lots
of them, who believe in the practice
of the virtues of temperance in every
form, but who have honestly feared
that the time was not yet ripe public
opinion not yet far enough advanced
for that party to become the champion
of prohibition. The manner, however,
in which this question has arisen in
Iowa, places the republican party upon
still higher grounds, than simply advo
catimr prohibition iti the abstract; the
people of that state have been granted,
at the hands of the republican part-,
both the privilege aud the riyJit of say-
iug, at an unpartisaa election, called
for that purpose alone, whether or not
a majority of the electors were in favor
of prohibiting the liquor traffic within
Iowa's borders, and having signified by
an overwhelming majority at such elec
tion their desire to banish the rum
shop, the republican party in this
campaign stands ooiuiy iortn
as thf champion of the will
of a majority of Iowa's electors expres
sed at such unnartisau election, and
say, that sovereign people of that com
mou wealth shall not be cheated of the
fruits of their victory, either through
the blunder of a legislature or the tyr
ranv of their courts. Certainly, these
are tenable grounds, and from the en
thusiasm of day before yesterday's con
ventional Des Moines may be heard
the ominous sounds of a certain victo
ry. While we admire the courage of
Iowa republicans, especially their rad
icalism, we hope they are not as radi
cal as the traveller in the stage coach
described the state of Blaine to be in
Elizabeth Stuarts Phelps' late famous
novel, Dr. Zay. This passenger de
scribed the state of Maine m the fol-
owiug amusing and unique manner
"We allers do hev everything wuss
"I ban other folks; fieeze and prohibi
tion, mud and FosionvV We've got
"one of the constitooshuns that take
"things.
Like my boy. He s inui the measles,
"n the chicken pox and the mumps,
and the nettle rash, and fell in love
with his school maam 'n got religion.
and lost the prize for encootin all in
one darned year."
The Heiiald hopes while the re
publican party is getting so many
things in advance this "darned"
ye.ir, it win not lose me prize.
WARNING.
Our democratic friends, if they de
sire to understand the kiud of a Are they
will have to stand in front of in "84,
want to examine the republican plat
forms and the stalwart, brave chal-
enges issued by the aggressive parties
of the old republican organizations of
Ohio and Iowa. Dr. Miller and Henry
"Watterson and our anti-monopolist
friend from "Arbor SpriDgs Lodge"
might as well understand first as last
that there are no soft gloves to be used
in this contest, and that the fellow who
fools around inside of the ring without
having his wind tested and his muscles
hardened will have to reap all the glory
and take all the consequences vithout
benefit of clergy.
LIBELS AND TOMBSTONES.
A libel suit, certainly extraordinary
and prohablv unique, has just ended in
Marshall, Mo. About a year ago the
son of J. S. Potter went swimming in
Blackwater creek with Philander Fin
ley and Mart Beggs and was drowned,
his companions being the only witnes
ses. His lamer immediately accused
them of drowning his son, and a total
failure to prove his charge did not
change his opinion. Accordingly he
procured from J. A. Tipping, of st.
Louis, and placed over his son's grave
a stone bearing the following msctip-
tion:
"Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.'
