ey (8} ~ Journeying Across Iowa With a Talkative Ex-Congressman, The Hon. Milton Sayler onthe Political Situation. Special Correspondence of Tik Dre. Crrcaco, July 26, 1881, Traveling by rail in never much of a pleasure, midsummer ie There are always the inconveniences of heat anc dust which even the boundless re sources of our seem inadequate to entirsly suppress. great corporations But with pleasant companionship such as fell to your correspondent’s lot on Friday, when jogging over the North slight western through Towa, these drawbacks were soon forgotten, THE CROPS along the Northwestern for some dis tance out from Council Bluffs seem backward. Wheat which is ready for the harvest will fall much below the average. Corn is good in spots, but taken as n whole, is behind the growth usual at this season of the year. Be- yond Missouri Junction, the stand of corn appears better. A farmer in- formed me that the crop would be much below expectations, and that the glowing reports printed in some unwise journals would be found to be grossly inaccurate and exaggerated, I had talked some time with a leasant white bearded gentleman be- ?uro I discovered that my fellow traveller was the HON, MILTON SAYLER, formerly member of congress from Cincinnati, and chairman of the South Carolina election investigating com- mittee under President Hayes. Mr, Sayler was just returning from Colo- I‘Xu where he has extensive mining interests. An English journalist has remarked that when two Americans meet, the first topic broached is poli- tics and he is, generally speaking, cor- rect. The announcement of Mr. Lapham’s election as the successor to ex-Senator Conkling was received with interest by Mr. Sayler. “I am glad it is over,” said the ex- congressman, ‘‘though Lapham is not to be compared in ability with Roscoe Conkling. Heis A MAN OF UNDOUBTED ABILITY, however, and in congress showed him- self to be an intelligent, positive and upright member of the lower house. Personally he makes many friends. During the South Carolina dispute wo were members of the same com- mittee, Mr. Lapham insisted on go- g to the bottom of everything and proved himself a hard fighter for the minority, There are many senators representing leading and influential states who do not possess one tithe of Mr. Lapham's ability.” “What effect do you think Mr. Conkling’s retirement will have on the republican party in New York?" ““It is nonsense to talk about Mr. Conkling's retirement. You cannot keep Roscoe Conkling out of public life. Heis A POWER IN POLITICS which cannot be ignored, (least of all by New York state. His resignation was a piece of childishness, which was in keeping with his arrogant assump- tion of superiority, but although de- feated now he will be heard from in the future,” “In_what then lay Mr. Conkling's power?” (luuried your correspondent, “‘Mr, Conkling personally was never Bopulnr in Congress, and never could e He was admired for his snr-inlency, for his ability’Zin ebate and for his unswerving fidelity to his friends. I think even his ns- sumption of l:‘)eriurity over the other senators won admiration from many. No one ever doubted his position on any question under discussion nor questioned his motives, but he utterly failed to make many personal friends. Blaine has a magnetism which wins over even the opposition. He ishenrty and unreserved. Conkling is frigid and supercilious, ‘Do you know WARNER MILLER? “‘Mr. Miller has had a considerable amount of congressional experience and is a man of unquestioned ability, It was a great mistake in Tom Platt tagging so closely to Conkling's heels. Mr. Platt isa personal friend of mine. He is a thorough business man and a perfect gentleman, He has killed himself politically and shown great weakneas ot will. New York will be content to leave him in his retirement.” A DREADED POSSIBILITY, Speakiug of the attempt on tho presi- dent's life, Mr. Sayler expressed the view that Gen, Garfield’s death would be no less serious a misfortune to the country than to the republican party. ‘I have known hum 1n congress” said M. Sayler; “‘and though a political opponent bear witness to his manliness s0lid worth and strong metal and moral force. He isa man among a thousand, and the country can ill af- for to spare his services THE RACES, During the past week, all Chicago and a l-rfia proportion of the adjacent country, has been in daily attendance at the races. On Saturday, when Maud 8, trotted against her record, itis estimated that 20,000 people were at the Driving park. Wm. H, Vander- bilt and two of his sons were present to witness the performance of the lit- tle ware, aud were received with hear ty upplause as they walked out on the track at the conclusion of the trial. Maud 8. has been a lucky in- vestment for Captain Stone, who urchased her a few years ago or 600 and sold her to Vanderbilt for $21,000. Her present owner would scarcely part with her for five times that amount. BISHOP M'MULLEN, The consecration of Bishop McMul- lon of the diocese of Davenport, which took place on Monday at the Holy Nume, was the first consecration of a Chicago priest to the episcopate which has ever taken place in that city. The ceremony was most impres- sive and attracted & large number of the clergy from abroad. hi.hu‘: O'Connor was present and took paré in the solemn sercices, 'fhe new bishop is likely to prove both useful to the church and popular unong his people.

Notes From a Thriving Iowa Town. Correspondence of The Bire. CrestoN, Towa, July 27th, 1881.— But few items have occurred in our city worthy of note for the past week. Last Thursday an interesting game of base ball was played here between the Winterset and Creston clubs, the Wintersets winning by a score of 7 to 10, John Conway, who is running a so- called wholesale liquor house, had his liquors seized, and tried by a jury be- fore Justice Kilburn, Thursday. He was found guilty and in the evening the lot, about 60 gallons, was emptied into the street and the kegs bursted up. Arch Casteel, an old offender, was beforo Esq Davis for assault and bat- tery, Thursday, and was fined $5.85, which he put up. E. H. Dobbs and wife were badly poisoned last Wednesday by eating cove oysters. They recovered through the aid of emetics. Several other members of the family were more or less affected. The Creston base ball club played the Corning's, at thatplace yesterday, and won the game by a score of 9 to 16. A large crowd witnessed the game. SUBSCRIBER. Villisca Notes- Correspondence of The Bee. Vitusca, Ia., July 27.—The work on the tunnel under the railroad tracks on Third avenue is progressing favor- ably, and when completed, which will be by September 1st, will thoroughly advertise the enterprise of our little city. We still have about 300,000 bushels of corn in crib. This vicinity was visited by a licht frost Friday uight, but did no dam- age, that we have heard of. The C., B. & Q. propose to lay heavy steel rails from Villisca east, at once, Tue Bee makes its morning visit with perfect regularity and is becom- ing a popular paper, for it gives us the western as well as the eastern news, and its' complete market reports are reliable. A Word for Judge MoDill. Audubon Times, July 21, When the Kirkwood vacancy occur- red, Gov. Gear, who is himself an aspirant and a prominent candidate for senator, was charged with the duty of an appointment. Towa never had a better governor than John H. Gear, No man is better acquainted with the wants and needs of this great state, or the ability and qualifications of its public men. No man was better qualified to select a suitable successor to Senator Kirkwood. In making such selection he was evidently gov- erned somewhat by two important considerations: first, that Mr, McDill was an eminently suitable and com- petent man for the position; and, second, that western Towa was justly entitled to furnish said ofticer.” The appointment was a wise and proper one, and was hailed with delight in the eighth district, and heartily in- dorsed by the people of the whole state, Now, what good reason can be giv- en why James W. McDill should not be elected by the next legislature to fill, not only the unexpired term, but the next regular term of United States senator. That he is worthy and com- netont. we have the fullst proof., That western Towa is justly entitled to furnish said officer must be admit- ted. That it is the plain duty of the people and press, particularly of the ecighth district, to elect legislators favorablo to a western man for sena- tor, seems to us to be beyond question, and that man, Senator McDill, There seems to be a disposition among many to elect to the senate some man'of pre-eminent and tower- ing ability, a ‘sort of an Towa Conk- ling, who will at once step to the front and assume a leadership among the greatest men in the nation, and a vigorous search ix being made for such au individual, Such talk is all non sense, We don't want such a man There is such a thing as a man getting too “‘smart.” We don't want a wan 80 ‘‘smg that he thinks himself right and everybody else wrong, We | don't want & man &0 “‘swmart” that he | will either rule or ruin, dictate or de. tre We don't want & man so suart” that he will get mad and re sign and leave the great state of Towa unrepresented if he cannot dictate the OCCASIONAL, week., At the Palmer were tered W.

Ta my opin- ion it is a newspaper lie, gotten up to create further prejudice against those who wish Treland to be given her freedom. If machines were real- ly feund, then it is likely that it is simply a plot to secure the same end, especially if there were any papers in the barrels bearing my name, It is not probable that I would make ma- chines with anything that weuld be- tray me.” “Should it be proved that the ma- chines were shipped from this country what theory would you then have (" ““Well, it is not impossible that they were sent by Irvishmen.

S, government /" “No. I know that communications were received at Washington about the time the Presidentreceived his in- juries. As soon as he recovers I pro- pose to go and see him and members of the cabinet.” Political Prohibition in Maine, A Portland correspondent of the Beston Traveier writes: ‘‘Here, in the home of prohibition, where the Maine liquor law originated can be had liquor ot all kinds, and in any quantity. 1t is estimated that there are in the limits of the city over 200 places where liquor can be bought in a city of only 40,000 inhabitants, The clubs have it, the hotels keep it the drug stores sell it, the lunch- counters dispense it, and the grog- shops retail large quantities of it. It is even kept on draught, so bold have the settlers become. A year ago it was »ith much difticulty that n glass of beer could be obtained. Still the mitiated could find it. Now, any one can get any and all he pleases to call for, And how did the change become about? It resulted from the action of the ultra-teetotal men, who were not satisfied with the eflicient work of the republican sheriffs, who - enforced the law 8o thoroughly as to virtually stop the traflice. They must have a change, and hence holted the republi- can candidate for sheriff, and assisted the democrats and greenbackers to elect theirs, And it was distinctly understood by the supporters of the Fusion candidate that the law, if en- forced at all, should be done very sparingly. was planned, for 1t is now free rum, or aearly so, and the coercive teetota- lers have themselyes to thank for it. It is well known that all those who used liquor applauded the action of the coercionists last fall To be sure, the present officiers occasionally make izure, but the proof of the pud- ding is in the eating, and the ease with which liquor ean be obtained, and the number of grog-shops, witness the success of the change. True to their principles, the ultraists in the second congressional district have bolted the nomination of ex-gov. Dingloy, the republican candidate for ropresentative in congress, and one of the stanchest temperance men in the state, and have nominated a separate candidate. So much for consistency. Bradford, Pa.
