Acting under this shield ot p. great party's advko and piotcctlon , the law less clement In scveial Iowa cities have continued to defy the law , and to persecute even to death any who at tempted to intcrfeie with tholr business. So the sentiment of reslstenco to law which the demociatlc party matured and promoted Is to-day as responsible for the murdci of llad- doek as Is the man who tired the fatal shot. The demociats themselves realbo the fact , and hive tried in ev ery way to escape public conviction. Soon after Mr. Haddock was shot tlioy started the absutd story t hat the deed was done by some old vei- soual enemy who had followed him from Wisconsin for this purpose.

During the past week an organl/atlon very quiet awl unassuming in Its pictonsions , but very useful and efficient in Its operations lias been holding its ami ml meeting in this city. This was the anti-horse thief society and It is proving ono of meat seivlco to the state in many wavs. Its name might pci haps suggest some of the simim iri methods that prevail In Judge LMich'scouit on the frontier , but If so , It would belle its work.
