At 9 o'clock Senator Palmer called the audience to order. In his introductory remarks he explained the object of the club, saying that Wash- ington, if alive, would probably b present. He said it is composed of those who believe that the republican party still has work to do, terming it properly the party of God and of morality, William M.

Then we were out of power. We are in power now. The democratic party was in power then and 1s now. We knew what we did then. What about now? Are now the same incentives at work among the people? He could not foretell a storm, but he believed the duty now is the same as in 1860, ‘The same motives should work upon the party and the same responsibilities o sumed. “All else must be laid aside, and with uneelfish devotion the republicans should regain power from the same reasons that led toit then. The democra arty had no principles worthy of the name at that time, and now they have nothing to propose for the welfare, happiness and good name of the country., e said the republican party must avow its lolding to the principie of protec- tion of American industries. Education must be universal and suffrage must be evervwhere an absolute « unchallenged sulfrage.

Several weeks ago twenty-four cases of beer belonging to Chris Melcher, a druggist of this place, were gttached by J. 8. McCormick & Co. of Des Moines, to secure payment for them. Melelier's attorneys filed a motion to_have the goods released, as the sheriff could not sell the goods according to the general statute, on account of the prohib- T having no right under that law to sell intoxicating liquors, The motion was sustatned and the liquors were released.

Wondover claimed damages be- cause he was arrested on a charge of peddling without a license. The court ruled that the ordinance requiring peddiers to pay license was not in_conflict with that part of the con- stitution of the United States, and the city is not liable for damages even if the ordi- nance be unconstitutional., Discussing Hog Disensos.
