THE IOWA KtrriUMX COSTS*. |
TIOM.
The Iowa State Repnbllcsn Conrrn
Uon met at Des Moines yesterday, with
• very largo attendance. Nominations
were made (or the following officers:
Secretary of State, Treasurer. Auditor,
Register of State Land Office. Attorney
General and Reporter of the Supreme
Court. The platform adopted reaffirms
the financial policy announced by the
party in the National Contention* of
1868 and 1872; furors free banking; re
affirms the declaration of the Bepubli-1
can platform in 1872 in faTor of pay
ment by the Government of all ita obli
gations in the world's currency, to wit,
specie; affirms the constitutional power
and duty of Congress to regulate inter
nal State railway commerce; declares it
the right and duty of the State to regu
late railroads, and to enforce the rail
road law of Iowa until it is superseded
by other legislation, or declared
unconstitutional by proper tri
bunals; affirms the «|ual rights
of all men; declares that the Re
publican party has kept all its pledge*
regarding economy and retrenchment;
favors a constitutional amendment pro
viding for the election of the PretiiJent
and Viae President by a direct vote of
the people; demands a modification of
the patent laws in the interest of con
sumers; demands that only honest and
ca|>able men shall bo elected or appoint
ed to office, and recoruiuend* the inves
tigation and punUhmcut of official cor
ruption. The last plank of the plat
form favors the submission to the peo
ple of an amendment to the State Con
stitution allowing women to vote.
Thin platform in certainly broad < u
ough to cover every reform demanded
by tlia people. The la*t two reaolution*
takn uliiimd ground. While some
journal*, villi more zeal for party sue
cee* than for good government, Lave
deprecated tli" investigations, which,
commencing with Credit Mobilier,
have been steadily urged by the
people anil a large |<ortion of the
press until the eiul of tho Maaton jn*t
•xpiml, the Republicans of Iowa em
phatically record their approval and
urge the continuance of thine inquests.
Thin fact in not only creditable to the
member* ok that convention but in
structive. It shows that among the
masses of Republicans there ia dinting
an iutenso desire for au upright, capable
and honest government: that they are
eamrat for Republican xucces* only no
far on it ahull secure thia wished for re
sult; that they will uot tolerate corrupt
officials; but, ou the contrary, demand
that all charge* shall lu investigate! and
the guilty offender* be unloaded. It i*
thi* reuibnr** to correct wrong, thi* lib
eral public acntinient, that uw* party
only a* a mean* to secure the l*-*t wel
fare of tho citizen, which i* at once
characteristic of the llepnblican jtirtj
and it* *tronge*t guarantee for eou
tinuaucv in |x>wcr. The Iowa Repub
licans ore not too rudicid in thi* |uutic
ul.ir. They speak the aentimeuta of uitie
tentha of thoac who have aince Iwil)
united to secure free, ju.it and honeat
goveminent to the whole American |*\>
ple. If, aa doubtleaa i* true, corrupt
official* worm their way into place* of
public trunt, Republican* demand their
removal and puni«hni«ut. If Congre**
refuses to investigate such matter*, lle
publicau* will aend men in their place*
who will shrink at uo exposure for the
public good. In thia course lie* the
aafety not only of the party, through
whoae machinery theac thing* have been
and are to be accomplished, but of the
commonwealth to whom all partiea look
for power and support. The Iowa Con
vention touches the right chord wheu it
declare* in favor of investigations, wheu
it demanils that corrupt officials every
where shall be "uuloaded."

Japanese in aatiafaction for an unau
thorized attack by ono of the Damioa

oming, and »orue further installment*
are yet due. It ap|>ean, however, that
the wholo damage and conncqnent ex
penditure chargeable to the fund did not
exceed SiO.OUO. It -would be an act of
good policy aa well aa courteey to remit
the unpaid installment*, and devote the
amount now in hand (after deducting
what little may belong to the officer*
and crew of tho Wyoming an prize
money) to norno international found»
tion which may remind the JapaneM
people forever that thin country i*
equally geuerona and jn*t.
Ex-Govt-rnor Dennison, of Ohio, and
Henry T. Itlow, of Mlsaonrt. have ac
cepted the appointment o' Commi*
aioner* of the l>i«lriet of Columbia.
Ex-Senator Cattel, of New Je rwy. who
waa alno appoiutml, hiu declined. Thia
leavea a vacancy which mu>l be Ailed by
Preatilent Grant. We do not Is'liove he
will appoint Htm* Shepherd.
D. W. Vooauxg* positively de> liu<'* to
be a candiilate for Congreaa, unying, "I
could not accept the position. even if I
waa elected and a commission tendered

the line over to the Dominion Govern
ment.
Wax* the thrifty German Govern
ment confiscated the property of the
Archbiahop of Poaen, who ia now in
the Penitentiary, they got hold of $123,
f jO in caah.
I'sxsidext Grant haa made a good se
lection in appointing aa Amain tan t Secre
tary of tho Treasury — rice Sawyer
kicked ont—Charlea F. Conant, of N«v
Hampshire. Mr. Conant ia a capable
man, haa had nine year* experience In
the Treasury Department, In which he
haa riien atep by step to hia present
honorable poaition. This ia true civil
service reform. A worthy mbordinate
deserves promotion, and in nine cues
out of ten ia far better qualified for the
poaition to which promoted than any
mere politician. The fact ia that in the
Treasury, aa in other Government de
partmenta, the major portion of admin
istrative aa well aa judicial decisiona are
made by those whose namea never ap
pear attached thereto. We predict that
Mr. Conant will do credit to the office.
Curtmi, the Senator, aaya the St.
Lonis Drmocrat, is one of thoae unlucky
men who never opena hia mouth with
out putting hia foot in it. Hia letter in
defense of his gag-law doea not disarm
the prvaa, nor convince anybody that
the bill waa not intended aa a piece of
revenge upon the papers. However, we
aup|M>ae the public career of Senator
Carpenter is well-uigh closed. The }nm>
ple of Wisconsin have never been able
tJ .understand hia justification of the
salary-grab—and never will.
Two Stage* Slopped and Robbed.
[From lk« Kurcka Bestlatl, Juot SC.)
The monotony attending stage travel
ha* once mora been broken. The dis
ciple* of Claude Dotal, Dick Turpi n
and other " ancient gentlemen of tho
road" are now operating in a small way
ujion the stretch of ouutry lying be
tween hen- ami I'alisade, though 11* yet
their dangeruu* ]*uitinie ha* financially
proved to he very unsuccessful. On
Sunday morning tho stage which left
I'alisade tho evening previous, had ju*t
paiucdChimnev Station,tlfty miles north
of hiirrks, when the driver thereof,
Johnny Wilkenaon. wan noxmt.il by two
men, the aame traditional two men who
always figure in stage robberies, one
*ery tall, the other very short. who re
quested him. without further parley, to
hand down the box, meaning the treas
ure box of Well*, Fargo Jt Co. Tho
tall man wa* armed with a formidable
looking .diotgun. which being presented
iu unpleasant proximity to the driver*
head, the re<|ue*t of the agent* wo* irn
uiediately complied with, and the box
handed over. A* the box wit* given up
the man with tho " long torn" who had
thown evident aign* of trepidation du

which it wa* loaded, scattered iu all di

«.tgebru*h. The news reached town
eirly in the morning, and during the
•lay all manner of rumor* prevailed con
cerning tho affray. One |H*r*on, who
wa* «up|N*wd to know the fact* of the
en*e. suid that Jainc* Miller, thu special
me«*enger of tho *t«ge line, wa* on the
coach at the time, and h*d bee n mor

to town, ami conveyed tu sumo place
where he cuuld not lie seen until of.

them to the ilriver and told him to move
on without ilisturbing the iNuwnger*.

Mort of that Murdertd Indian.
We learn (rum Jim Uutewood aiiil
Win. George, who witneaaed tin assault
upon the Indian, of who*® murder by u
Chinaman we bail a notice yesterday,
that when ho received the fatiU injuries
he waa trying to make hit e<capo from n
crowd of infuriated Chiiuuneu armed
with revolver*. clnho, and all aorta of
wra|M>n<). He had been made drunk
with whi*key Kohl to him by tho China
men, and then, when he got quarrel
•oui', they went for hiui in a Imdy.
The blow thai finished him wa* dealt by
an ap|>areut oataider, • Chinaman who
Ar*t had to aet down hia Iwaket before
he could >lrike the retreating Indian the
blow which knocked tutu down and
cnu*ed hi* death. We nuentioned Gate
wood and Georgo to Qnd out if they
could identify the murderer. They
thought they would not l«e able to do no.
After the Indian had been atrtick, our
informant* and other* interfered to pre
vent hi* being tauten any more, and
hel|<ed to carry hiui out of Chinatown
to a place of safety. It i* a pity but
the |ier|>etratoni of this eowarily crime
could be brought to juatice—e*]>ecially

Diabolical Attempt to Wrock a Trail
la Michigan.
A diapatch to th» Chicago Times, from
Battla Creek, Mich., dated Jane 10th,
giTe* the following:
A moat infamous and diabolical at*
Umpt to wmck the night expreaa on the
Michigan Central Railroad waa made at
Johnson's carve, between this city and
Augnsta, tlx miles from thii place and
three mile* from the latter, on Thura
duy night last, the particular* of which
have been kept from the publio by the
railroad men and officials. On Friday
morning, as the section men from Au
gusta were passing over the track, the
boaa of the gang noticed that the wheel
of the hand-car waa considerably jarred
aa it struck against the end of the rail.
Noticing that the rail waa slightly slewed
oat from the other, he stoppod the
hand-car, when, on examination, what
was his horror to discover that the
splice bars hail been removed from each
end of the rail, and that even' spike had
been drawn oat, except one in the mid
dle, which just clung to the tie, and that
was all. Everything had been most de
liberately planned by some devilish
wretches to wreck the train nnd cause a
great slaughter of hmnan life.
Aboat one mile east of the carve is a
signal station, railed " Bedford." At
this stopping place there is nothing ex
cept a Hiuall Htation-house, which will
accommodate a few ]>eniona, aud in
which are kept such tools an are neces
sarily used by the track repairers. The
country in nnd jirouud the station is
quite well populated by well-to-do fann
ers, for whoso accommodation this point
was made u Mopping place b^- the com
pany. In the immediate vicinity of the
station-holme, however, there are no
houses, ami in fact for some distance
from it. The wonld-be train-wreckers
first came to this station-house, pried
open the door, without fear of being
discovered, and took just such tools ns
they were in ne»nl of to pat iuto execu
tion their hellish designs, llaviug pro
cured the tools, they evidently proceeded
to the curve and quietly displaced the
rail at their pleasure.
Tho expres* passed safely oror the
death trap. The Intl.. iron spike, junt
Kirilv clinging to the wooden tie, *n«
all that averted the catastrophe. It wiw
the alcnder cord on which hung a hun
dred precious live* or more. The ]huw
cnger* ou the night express on Thur*
ilay little know the ilooui which they hiul
e*ra|>ed, and the danger which they had
pass,,I through. It Wd rained that
evening and the night wax dark, and
juit anch a one a» would have been cho
sen (or de«dH of violence and robbery.
Johnson's curve in a sharp one, right on
tho bonk of the Kaliuuaxoo lUver, down
which the whole train would havu I>een
precipitated to the depth of twentv feet
Into tho water, which at thia particular
point 1« deep euough to take the whole
train under water. Any pvrnon acquaint
ed with tbi* locality cannot think of the
consequence* of tho diaaatcr without a
thrill of horror. It would hnvo been
terrible, and another would have been
added to the li«t of railroad disaster*. It
is not plain what the real d^-sign of the
uiiscreats <ra»-to (daughter human life
by the whole*ale or to rob the express
car. It is difficult to tell, if rubbery was
| tinir object,bow they could succeed in it,
I as the entire train would have been en
1 gulfed beneath the water, without any
chance of getting at the wreck to accure
their booty.
As imsm as the Occident was made
known, all of the employee* of the road
who knew of the affair wen- *ilenerd,
for the pur]H>*e of, if |H>**iblc, getting
aome clue to the perpetrator*. So very
i|ni«t was the secret kept that but four
or five person* knew about it in.thia
city, ami thi* auuouucemcut will take
our jxsiple completely by *urpri*e. On
Friday night, and for two or three
night* following, the track along that
nectiou wa* |>alrollcdby armed men,who
were on the lookout for the return of
the wrecker*, but nothing has transpired
indicating any proluliility of their return,
Another question is arc these fellow* in
any way connected with those who
robbed the eipre** car at New Ilnflalo,
or are they working by themselves?
IVrhap* there is a regufarly organized
gang of theitv robls r* ojk rating in thi*
State.
