Rev. A , Rogers , formerly superintend
ent of the institution for the deaf and
dumb here , recently visited this city , and
as a result of his inspection of the institu
tion over which ho so ably presided in
times past , ho gives the following com
mendatory words-
"Beimr in Council Blnfl's for a few days
last week we we re cuptmcd by the now
superintendent of the Iowa institution for
the deal and dumb and taken to the insti
tution and kept over night as the guest
of the superintendent. Professor
Wyokoll' has had charge only since Au
gust 2i ! , but during that time has done
much to prepare the building for n suc
cessful school year. At the time of our
visit the heater iiad not been in order to
use , but a competent engineer lias been
placed in charge of that depart
ment and was working night
and day to secure the much
needed heat for the house. Every
department seemed to be in good shape ,
and promised future success. All the
teachers seemed cheerful and were heart
ily loyal to the now superintendent.
Prof , WyckofV impressed us as the right
man for the place ho occupies. Ho has
had a life experience with the dcat , and
has been a teacher for ten years. His
first years of experience wore in the
Kansas institution , where ho became
superintendent by natural promotion ,
and lost his place only on account of a
change of administration from republi
can to democratic. Ho lias taught three
years in the Iowa institution and was
selected for his present position because
of his special fitness for the place and the
hearty concurruico of his associates. He
is not only a scholar , lint a natural
mechanic , and the latter quality is as
necessary in such a place as the first. Ho
J knows wliero the machinery is out of
order and can direct its repair. The in
dustrial department is an important part
of a deaf-mute's education , and at
Council BlurTs this part of the work will
receive the care it deserves. Miss Sarah
E. Wright , of Burlington , has again been
placed in charge of this matron's depart
ment , and having been associated with
her in the past , we feel competent to say
that with her experience and largeness of
heart , no parent need lecl that a child
will bo neglected. Taking the organl/a-
tion us we found it we can see no reason
why the Iowa Institution for the Deaf
ana Dumb will not go on its legitimate
work In a line of good success. Two
hundred and llfty.two pupils are in at
tendanceand there is now room for lully
three hundred. Success to the Iowa In-
etltutlon for the Deaf and Dumb , "

The democratic county convention was
lield yesterday in the Temple hull , whicli
was well Illicit , thrrc being largo num
ber of spectators as well ns delegates ,
there being expectations of a lively time
and much interest manifest. The fore

voted to organization and preliminary
work.

A committee of live on resolutions was

of Avoca , P.M. ( ituilt , F. M. llttntor. O ,
II. Jackson and E. E. Aylcsworth , allliut
the lirst namctl being from Council
mulls.
The convention then adjourned until 1
o'clock to enable the committees lo per
form tlii-ir work.
On reassembling the commit too on res
olutions reported , tlio report being
adopted as follows :
Ht-solvcd , That wo hereby endorse the
administration of Grover Cleveland ,
state and congressional platforms , and
will at all times give our earnest support
to secure the election of the entire demo
cratic ticket , iu the state , tlio congres
sional and judicial districts , and this
county , believing that by the election ot
the democratic candidates the best inter
ests of the people will and only can bo
prom pled.
Tlio committo on permanent organiza
tion reported in favor of W. (3. James as
chairman , ( } . Diudrich , secretary , and
John \Vugner , assistant secretary.
Juilge James in taking the chair said
lie tooK it as a distinguished honor. He
said the mission of the convention was to
advance the interests of the democratic
party. If there were conflicting inter
ests , all must remember that the party
was not for men , but men must yield to
the party. The republicans wore now in
the minority here. There had been a
great change , and now the democrats
had the government. The sectional differ
ences must bo laid aside. As a member
of. the state committee ho was posted ,
and he was confident that Iowa would be
claimed by the democrats. The republi
cans had passed an infamous registry
law to shut out democrats. Tie ! republi
cans had also made a wicked redistricting -
ing of the state. With those things to
Coil lend against the convention should
frame a ticket so as to strengthen the
party.
Up to tills time the committee on cre
dentials had not reported , and although
the convention was organized , no one
knew as yet who were entitled to seats.
The lacking report was finally presented.
In the contest iu Garner township , the
regular delegates were admitted. In
Norwalk township there was another
contest , and both sots were admitted ,
each member being given half a vote.
Every township was represented except
Wright The report was adopted.
On motion of W. li. Cuppy. Mr. J. J.
Shea was made the nominee of the con
vention for county clerk by acclamation.
That place on the ticket was thus speedily
and enthusiastically disposed of.
The nomination of county attorney fol
lowed. The attempt was made to allow
each delegate to leave his seat and deposit
his ballot , as tlio roll of townships was
called. This caused the greatest con
fusion , and half of the convention were
on their feet , going to and fro from tlio
ballot hats. The unusual proceeding
maito the process of taking a ballot very
tedious and mixed. After a half hour's
hard work , the result of the informal bal
lot was found to bo : Scott Williams.
4UJ , Fremont Hcnjiimin , 42 ; W. H. Ware ,
21 , J. J. Frainoy , 0. Total , 118J votes , 2 }
more votes than the convention should
show.
Some one intimated fraud , and the
chairman announced that any ono at-
tomnting any fraud had better get out of
the hall. There must be honest , square
svork.
Tlio convention weary of tlio balloting
process decided to take the next vote by
call of lovviishlps.
J. J. Frainoy declined to have Jus name
considered as a candidate. The chairman
in announcing it said ; "Therefore no
gentleman or uuinoorut will vote for Mr.
Frainoy. " [ Laughter mill uproarious
applause. ]
The formal ballot resulted in the nomi
nation of W. S. Williams for county attor
ney , the ballot being : Williams 51) , IJciija-
min III , Ware ! ! ) ( .
On motion of W. H. VnugliMi the noin- .
inaiion was made unanimous.
The next candidate to be nominated
was county recorder.
Judge Larimer named as ono of tlio
candidates A , M. Jackson. Mr. lla/on
presented the name of Ira F. llendrickH.
A. W. Atkwith named W. D. Hardin.
Mr. French , of Hoomer , presented W. II.
Thomas , of Hoomor. W. U. Cuppy
wanted to know if all those candidates
wore residents of Council Hlull'M. Mr.
Vauglmn replied to the east end sncor
that whichever was elected would proba
bly live here , unless tlio county scat was
changed.
The names of G. W. Wager and H. W.
Drigfjs were presented also.

Tlio convention was in the wildest ex
citement and great confusion accompan
ied tlio balloting. The seventh ballot
was so that Knox township , which had
been passed , could havetnrown the nom
ination to Hundncks by its eight votes ,
but that delegation split up , six of the
votes going to Heudrieks and two to
Thomas , 'ilton others came rushing in
witli changes of their votes , so that the
seventh ballot us finally announced stood :
llendrieks S3 , Jackson 48) ) , Thomas 0.
No oiioioe ,
In the eighth ballot the city bognn
throwing from Jackson aver to Thomas ,
causing wild enthusiasm. The stampede
to Thomas was followed quickly by oth
ers , the delegates fulling enthusiastically
into line , giving Mr. Thomas nn over
whelming majority , he receiving PI )
votes , Hendrli'ks 22. Briggs 2 , Jackson T.
On motion of Mr. Hendricks , Mr.
Thomas' nomination was made unani
mous by acclamation. Three cheers
were then givi'it Mr. Hcndrieks , and they
were given with a will. It was with dilli-
culty that the convention could be quieted
down enough to proceed with business.
The nomination for coroner was speed
ily disposnd of , Henry Fanl being nomi
nated by acclamation , but not ntium-
moiisiy.
The nomination of two county commis
sioners came next. W. U. Vanghan
named W. C. James , of this city. Henry
Hishton and J. W. Warner of Valley ,
J. P. Maxlield of Norwalk , 11. S. Wiit-
kins of Ncolit , Hobm-t Kirkwood of Crescent -
cent , and Henry Giddons of Boomer ,
were named.
J. J. Frainey moved that W. C. James
ho nominated by'acoluniatlnn as the com
missioner from Council Blutl's. This
rather caught tin-convention by surprise ,
and the motion was declared carried ,
although a goodly number of voices
shouted "nay. "
A ballot was taken on the other com
missioner. It resulted : Hishton ! I5 ,
Maxlield 33 } , Warner 18. ( Seildlns 8 , Watkins -
kins o , Kirkwood I , A. C.Graham 4. No
choice.
A senond ballot was taken resulting :
Maxlield f > 4 } , Hishton 20 , Warner 15 ,
Walkins 8 , Goddlngs 8 , Kirkwood 4 ,
Graham 2. No choice , Mr. Maxliold just
lacking one vote. He was then made
the nominee by acclamation as the other
county commissionnr.
The conven'.ion then adjourned and the
delegates renewed their enthusiasm in
dividually and informally with the sev
eral candidates.
On the iialCHIicll.
The democratic township convention
results in factional and fractional diller-
cnces.
The democrats of Kane township met
in convention at the close of the county
convention yesterday afternoon to frame'
its ticket.
W. C. Jones called it to order and J. J.
Frainoy acted as secretary.
Nominations of three justices were lirst
in order. W. L. Biggs , A. S. Hciidricks ,
J. J. Frainey. Hiram Shoemaker , N.
Schun : , C. Wesley and A. T. Whlttlesey
were named.
The ballot resulted in the nomination
of J. J. Frainey , A. T. Wliittlesey and
W. L. Biggs. The vote stood : Frainey ,
20 ; Wliittlesey , 15 ; Biggs , U ; Hendricks ,
12 ; Seliuiv. . 11 ; Shoemaker , 11 ; Wesley , 8.
For constables H. Hicketts , Conrad
Klein , C. Wesley , Thomas Skinner , John
Barhytn , wore named.
Mr. 1' . Lacy called np the point of
order that this township convention was
not justly constituted. The delegates
present were selected simply to attend n
county convention and not to hold a
township convention. This opened the
eyes of the delegates , and a discussion
followed as to whether this was in order
at all or not. It was urged that cau
cuses should bo held and delegates
chosen to a township convention , it was
wrong for the delegates to the county
convention to meet and hold a township
convention. The talk was in prog
ress while the tellers were count
ing the ballot for constables , which
stood : Wesley 10 , Hichetts 20 , Barhyto 15 ,
Kline 17 , Skinner 13. Thisgave the nom
inations to Wesley , Hickett.s and Kline.
Judge Larimer wanted the ticket com-
plot'ju , anil HIGH if it wiis found to bo
wrong , a township convention could bo
called , and this ticket renominted or set
aside.
P. Lacy moved to adjourn and have
another convention called.
The motion was lost an < \ the business
proceeded. Mr. John Green was nomin
ated for township trustee b.y acclama
tion. M. J. I. Lute was nominated in a
like manner as township clerk. Adjourn
ment was then taken.
The convention and its results prove
very unsatisfactory to many democrats.
There are apparently just claims that it
was not n duly constituted convention.
It was not provided for in the
call , by which delegates were to bo se
'
lected'to attend the county convention
simply. No call was published for any
township convention. No chairman was
elected. Judge James taking it for
granted that as he was chairman of the
countv convention ho should continue to
serve as chairman of other conventions.
No committee on credentials was ap
pointed and no record made of who were
delegates. The whole affair seems to
have boon a farce , a lilting close to the
entertainment of the afternoon. There
was hot talk last night about calling pri
maries to choose delegates for another
township convention , and the prospect is
good for having two democratic sets of
candidates in the Held for township of
fices.
To the surprise of many Justice Hen-
dricks and Justice Schiuv. worn not re-
nominated. They and their friends had
no idea that a township convention waste
to bo held , and hence did not prepare to
support them. They were caught un
awares , and the prospect is that botii of
these gentlemen will run ns independent
candidates for justice if another conven
tion is not called and held in regular
form. Their friends are hot , and there
are other candidates for other olliccs
who do not feel that they have had a fair
show. There promises to bo fun ahead
as the outgrowth of the sudden and pe
culiar framing of the democratic town
ship ticket. '

Jt dgo James yesterday secured the
nomination for county commissioner on
the democratic ticket by peculiar tactics
on thopnrt of his friendsW. H. Vautrhau
and J. J. Frainoy , and much indignation
is excited in the camp. Preparations
were being made to take a ballot , the two
highest to bo the nominees for commis
sioners. It was conceded that one should
bo from the city and one from the coun
try , Yaughan jumped to the front as a
city delegate and nominated Judge
James , Frainoy followed up by moving
to have him clioson by acclama
tion , The sudden procedure gave
the impression to the rest of
town delegates , that the city delegates
were united in favor of James.
Judge James being in the chair gave
Frainey an excuse for putting the vote
himself , am ! hn ti ! ; ! sn { jU" i.ll" , * < , } } " >
fovo tlioro was a chance for delegates "to
realize the situation. Of course , the
country delegates joined in shouting
"aye , " and when the majority of the city
deli-gates shouted "nay , ' it sounded m
comparison as though thcro wore but a
handful opposed to James. It was a
stolen march , and the scheme succeeded.
Thcro is little doubt but that u largo ma-
joritv of the city delegates favored the
nomination of A. C. Graham , the present
member of the board , and had this fact
boon known to the country delegates they
would huvo rallied to his support , and
ho would have becu nominated. Mr.
Graham has been one of the most ef
ficient members of the county board ,
and many republicans would gladly have
supported him for personal reasons , all

Yesterday the services of the police
were required to take care of a blind
man known as "Tom , " who travels about
the country selling matches. Tom was
stacgoring along Broadway , under the
guidance of a diminutive boy , who was
threatened with beingcrushed every time
the burly man took a tumble. On being
taken to the station , a stone tied np in a
pice of cloth was found npon him , it being -
ing apparently a slung shut , though Tom
declared it was a mad stone , possibly
meaning that it was to bo used when ho
got mad. The little fellow , who was with
him , says he is from Marshallt'jwn. and
that a few weeks ago , ho hired out to Tom
at fifty cents a day , to travel as his guide.
The boy was nearly heart-.brokcn at Tom's
getting into jail , ami wants in some way
to get back to his inotlr'er , whoso name

Splitting Ton-Dollar mils.
Baltimore Sun : A new departure in
the matter of counterfeiting money was
brought to light at the United States sub-
treasury in Baltimore a few days ago.
A Fomewhat worn $10 government bill
was presented at the cashier's window
with a request for change , which was
given. The note was sent to Washington
as mutilated currency , and was returned
with the information that ono side of the
note was good , but the other side was n
well-executed counterfeit of the original.
It was found that a genuine $10 bill had
boon split , the face being separated from
the back , a seemingly impossible under
taking. The original face , with a coun
terfeit back , had been used , and it is quite
likely that the genuine back with a well
executed counterfeit face had been
passed in some other quarter. The portion
tion of the note was worth exactly us
proportion of the whole , or in other
words ? 5 , Moro recently another
' 'front" presented
other $10 was
at the cashier's window , with a similar
request for change. The clerk at the win
dow , suspecting the bill , told the man
who handed it in to wait a moment until
lie could consult Dr. Bishop , the sub-
treasurer. Dr. Bishop recognized in the
note the familiar frame , and said it was
worth just $5. When the clerk returned
to the window , however , the man had
left without waiting for his change. The
sub-treasury , which was out $5 on the
first transaction , was evened up by the
second.
The system of manipulating paper
money is perhaps one of the most dan
gerous of swindling over attempted. Ono
or more genuine "fronts" mixed with
several whole notes would bo liable to
deceive export bank tollers. The face
bearing undoubted proof of genuineness ,
very few would bo apt to examine the
backs of nil the notes , unless something
in the fool of the paper might arouse sus
picion. Then should .any ono. especially
if not so expert as a bank teller , happen
to strike the counterfeit tilde and have
hlsdoubts about the notes , a glance at
the other side would possibly set at rest
all questions.
