AUSTIN, MINNESOTA:
WEDNESDAY MORNING. MAY 11,1881.
Let Him be President.
During the last few weeks the play of
American politics has become oue of
absorbing interest. That which was
looked upon with quiet amusement is now
watched with curiosity bordering upon
anxiety. The supposed whim of the
President is developing into a principle,
and the certain death of this principle, or
of Roscoe Conkling, will change the
comedy into a fine political tragedy.
The actors are James A. Garfield, Pres
ident of the U. S., aud Roscoe Conkling,
Senator from N. Y. The former repre
sents the Executive department of the
government, and in the play is simply
performing his sworn duty. The latter
represents Roscoe Conkling,a synonomous
name for bossism, political despotism,
aud ring rule. It seems that the Presi
dent appointed one Robertson, for Col
lec
tor of Revenue at New York, and that a
withdrawal of the appointment is de
manded by Senator Conkling to whom
it is rather unpalatable. On the refusal
of President Garfield to comply with this
most highly reasonable demand of the
N. Y. Lord, the latter immediately
threatens the President with the wrath of
the Senate. The President, unwilling to
have his policy dictated to him by a man
who erroneously believes himself to be
the Republican party, positively declines
to obey, and insists that the appointment
be confirmed or rejected by the Seuate.
The turning point of the play then, is,
shall the President exercise the power
conferred upon him by the constitution,
or shall it really tall into the hands of the
Senate and be wielded by a representative
of a single state.
Iu view of the fact that the legislative
branch has been steadily encroaching on
the other branches of the government,
and thereby threatening us with the evils
of a centralized administration, this fight
between President Garfield and Roscoe
Conkling is one of paramount importance.
On the part of the former it is not a per
sonal fight. He has merely taken the
step which it has long been foreseen that
some President must take to preserve the
dignity and powers attaching to his office.
It is a disgraceful spectacle which is
offered to our view. Our chief magis
trate is asked by a tyrannical ring politi
cian to withdraw an appointment which
it is the duty of the Senate to reject, if
the appointment be an improper one.
Conkling's conduct points unerringly to
the absolute power which he w&a striv
ing tor under a Grant administration.
President Garfield has met him boldly,
aud in the interests of his office and of
true government. The President will
win he has the constitution to support
him, and also the sympathy and aid of
the best men of all parties. And he
ought to win for it is only by observing
strictly the boundaries of each depart
ment of government, and leaving each
officer to the performance of his own
duty and the responsibility of hi3 position
that our principles of government can be
maintained. We, the people of the U. S.,
elected Garfield President, and we say,
let him be President.
A
GREAT
many good people are full of
forebodings and fears lest infidelity and
atheism, by the aid of science and the
eloquence of orators, should undermine
the foundations of Christianity. If faith
is weak the history of the past should
teach the folly of the thought. It has
stood the shock o» giants through all these
centuries, and at every assault, wheu the
smoke of battle has cleared, the beautiful
structure of Christianity has appeared
not only unmarred, but with more
marked beauty and completeness. Try
as it may, the intelligent world canuot
escape from the truth everywhere im
pressed upon it, that the Christian reli
gion is wonderfully adapted to the best
and truest interests of the sons and
daughters of men. This is true not only
of the future state resting upon faith, but
the present condition, in the home, in
society, and in the State. To all these it
gives a charm, excellence, and solidity
never reached or even approximated to
under any other system. In the past the
walls of Christianity have been assaulted
—they will be in the future but their de
fenders will be none the less valiant and
equally successful.— Inter-Ocean.

THE Spring Valley Vidette is respect
fully informed that the
TRANSCRIPT
does
not now know, or never knew, of any com
bination for political purposes between
Messrs. Cole and Ounnell. We spoke
approvingly of Gen. Cole for Governor
recently, as we have several times before
for other public positions, because we
consider lnm a man of fine ability and of
the strictest integrity—a man who would
honor his statt as its executive chief.
Because he believes in the state paying its
debts, is a strange reason for opposing
him. We honor him for his position on
the railroad-Jond indebtedness.
THE Philadelphia Times says that
Secretary Windem is liked as Secretary
of the Treasury more and more, and pre
dicts for him as successful a career as
Sherman had. The Times is right. The
better you know Secretary Windom the
belter you like him. He is one of the
solid men that do little talking but lots
of work.—Inter-Ocean.
THE new road of the C., M. & St. P.
Co. from Marion Junction to Council
Bluffs, is to be completed by January 1st
next. The line takes a straight shoot,
without regard to the feelings of import
ant towns. Cedar Rapids is left four
miles to the north. Every tow a of im
portance except Iowa City is left out. It
will soon be so you can go anywhere
over the M. & St. P. R. R.
NINETY-TWO years ago last Saturday,
Washington was inaugurated first Presi
dent of the United States at New York
City. The suit of clothes that he wore
upon that occasion is preserved at Wash
ington. While the- Nation is not venera
ble with age, it has reached the period
when but few living witnesses are left to
tell of the event.—Inter-Ocean, May 3.
THE Vuuderbilt board of directors in
returning to New York from the west,
last Friday, made the fastest time on
record. The train of two cars, drawn by
the newly-invented Fountaine engiue,
made 111 miles in ninety-eight minutes,
and 229 miles in 235 minutes, including
stops amounting to sixteen minutes.
IT is said that the project for a world's
fair in New York in 1883 is practically
dead.

—Don't forget to say "good morning!'
Say it to your parents, your brothers and
sisters, your schoolmates, your teacher—
and say it cheerfully, and with a smile,
it will do you good, and do your friends
good. There's a kind of inspiration in
every "good morning" heartily spoken
that helps to make hope fresher and work
lighter. It seems really to make the
morning good and to be a prophecy of a
good day to come after it. And if this is
true of the "good morning," it is also of
all kind, heartsome greetings they cheer
the discouraged, rest the tired, and some
how make the wheels of life run more
smoothly.—Ex.
—Tlte New Haven Register inquires
"Isn't it strange how recklessly a boy dis
regards comfort? H« will have wet feet
cold fingers, frost-bitten ears, and shiver
ing chilly, but you can't pull him into the
housejby the kitchen stove. Not much.
He will dance with his hands in his pock
ets, and 'holler' to the boys across the
street and imagine he is having raving
fun." Just so with a working man.
Nothing brings out nerve except the crises
of life. When a man backs down and
quits work for damp feet or is afraid he
will get rheumatic or spoil his corns,
make up your mind that that man will
never amount to anythiug in this life.
Grit will keep a mau's toes warm in ice
water. Nerve will drive off chills and
ague and the man that can rise with the
occasion is the man that will keep his
head clear above water liroughout life.

Advertising Cheats.
It has become so common to write the be
ginning of an elegant, interesting article and
then run into some advertisement that we
avoid all such cheats and simply call
attention
to the merits of Hop Bitters
in as plain honest
terms as possible, to induce people to give
them one trial, as no one who knows their
value will ever use anything else.
A MAN 102 years of age has been discovered
in Southern Ohio., He swears, drinks the
strongest kind of rum, bus smoked for seven
ty-two years, chews plug tobacco, uses snuff,
and the inhabitants don't know what to make
of it.
A Losing Joke.
A prominent physician of Pittsburgh said
jokingly to a lady patient who was complain
ing of her continued ill health and of his ina
bility to cure her. "try Hop Bitters I" The
lady took it in earnest and used the Bitters,
from which she obtained permanent health.
She now laughs at the doctor for his joke, but
he is not so well pleased with it, as it lost him
a good patient.

Making Watches.
Defective watch cases are one of the chief
causes of so many watches not being good
time pieces. The cases being thin and not
fitting well, admit dust and dirt to the move
ment, which soon interferes with the running
parts of the watch, necessitating cleaning, re
pairing, &c„ and the amount thus paid out if
applied toward buying a good case in the
beginning, would have saved all this trouble
aud expense. We have recently seen a case
that meets all these requirements, it having
been carried for over twenty years and still
remains perfect. We refer to the JAS. BOSS*
PATENT STIFFENED GOLD CASE, which has
become one of the staple articles of the jew
elry trade, possessing as it does so many
advantages over all other watch cases, being
made of two heavy plates of solid gold over a
plate of composition, and we advise all our
readers to ask their jeweler for a card or cat
alogue that will explain the manner in which
they are made.
It is the only stiffened case made with two
plates of gold, seamless pendants, and center,
solid joints, crown pieces, &c., all of which
are covered by letters patent. Therefore buy
no case before consulting a jeweler who keeps
the
JAS. BOSS'

CASE, that you may learn the difference be

equally as good.

of case is as good. apr20-ly

SEWIN6 MACHINE.
BEST IN THE WORLD:
The manufacturers of the SPRINGFIELD
are aware that, in order to meet the critical and
economic demands of the times, the machine
must possess a combination of mechanical ex
cellences, making it superior to any of its {pre
decessors, and at the same time be offered at a
price that will place It within the means of all..
Fully realizing the force of these conditions,
they offer the Springfield) confident that it will
fulfill every requirement that can be expected of
a first-class family and manufacturing machine.
Every Machine is warranted perfect in con

SOME VERY HARD NUTS
TO
CRACK.
1st, Companies have sprung up in every
irt of the Union for making an imitation
Singer Machine. Why are not similar compa
nies formed for making imitations of other
sowing' machines? The public will draw its
own inference. Gold is continually counter
feited—brass and tin never.
2d, The Singer has taken the 1st prize over all
competitors more than 200 times. Why?
!d, After the Chicago fire, the relief com
mittee undertook to furnish sewinfr machines
to the needy, women of that city. appli
cants were permitted to choose from six dif
ferent machines:3,427 chose Sinner Machines,
and 517 distributed their choice among the
five other kinds
of machines. These girls were
to earn their living on these machines. Why
did they take Singers?
4th, The People's Award to the
Singer. The
people bought Singer Machines as follows:
\870 127,833 1879 431,109
Many of the manufacturers of other machines
refuse to state their sales. WHY? 74,735 more
Singer Machines old in 1879 than in any pre
vious year. Three-quarters of all the sewing
machines sold throughout the world in '79
were Singers.
