Friday Facts.
--------------------
  --The Council meets to-night.
  --C. SMITH, Chicago, is in the city.
  --A. N. EICK, of Franklin Grove, is here.
  --J. W. ACKEMAN, of Chicago, is in the city.
  --W. F. BARRETT, New York, was in the city to-day.
  --Geo. W. COLLINS, of Milwaukie, was in the city to-day.
  --Frank D. JACKSON, of Greene, Iowa, is in the city to-day.
  --We return our thanks to Hon. M. A. McCOID for a number of choice public documents.
  --The I. C. Sorosis gave a reception last evening at the residence of Miss Bertha COFFIN. There was quite a large number present.
  --It is said that First Assistant Postmaster General HATTON’s report will show over fifty thousand postoffices in the United States.
  --A. M. BRUCE, the genial, efficient and wide-awake special agent of the Council Bluffs Insurance Company, was in the city yesterday.
  --Between fifteen and twenty of the P. E. O. sisters are off to-day on a picnic to Rome. While they are in Rome we trust they will do as the Romans do.
  --Hon. John S. WOOLSON, of Mt. Pleasant, addressed the Blaine and Logan club at the court house last night. Mr. WOOLSON is one of the best men, and one of the most pleasing public talkers in the State.
  --Scott WASHBURNE, the portly representative of the wholesale grocery house of SHAMMO & CUMMINS, of Muscatine, was in the city to-day. Scott is looking much better since the prohibition law went into effect.
  --The Democratic National Convention now in session at Chicago, nominated Governer CLEVELAND, of New York, as their candidate for President of the United States, on the second ballot. His vote was 683.
  --America is a country of chronic growlers. A few weeks ago there were fears of a short crop. These were dissipated, and already there are croakings heard that there will be such an abundance that we will not be able to dispose of it.
  --H. F. SCHROEDER, representing the Champion Enterprise Manufacturing Company, of Springfield, Ohio, is in the city introducing the Company’s patent Combined Adjustable Wash Bench, Step Ladder and Ironing Board, which is one of the most useful pieces of household furniture in the market.
  --A large number of the veteran soldiers contemplate attending the national encampment of the G. A. R. which will be held at Minneapolis, commencing July 23. Great preparations are being made there to make the sojourn of the boys pleasant, and it doubtless will be. All railroads will sell excursion tickets at greatly reduced rates.
  --The anti-prostitution law, which went into effect at the same time with liquor prohibition, is evidently regarded with fear by the demi-monde. From Council Bluffs, Des Moines, Marshalltown, Burlington, and other cities, a general exodus is reported. The new law strikes a heavy blow at this partner of drunkenness, and the penalties are distributed equally upon women and men.

SATURDAY SAYINGS.
--------------------
  --O. S. KINSLEY, of Chicago, is here to-day.
  --Senator WILSON and Representative McCOID returned home this morning.
  --Mrs. N. S. AVERILL, of Los Angeles, Cal., is in the city visiting her sisters and many friends.
  --F. WALING, Walter DRAPER, James ABSOBROOK and M. LIPPMAN, of St. Louis, were in the city to-day.
  --The Brighton Enterprise says that Jake ISENHART, of that place, "made $34 running a stand in the park at Fairfield July Fourth."
  --Col. Sam C. FARMER returned home from Chicago this morning. He wears a CLEVELAND badge and declares Grover will be our next President.
  --Dr. J. L. MYERS received a telegram from Lincoln, Nebraska, announcing the death there this morning, of his son, Dr. George H. MYERS, for many years a resident here.
  --Capt. BURGESS reports Eugene FREEMAN, B. SPENCER, C. R. FREEMAN and George FREEMAN, of Paola, Kansas, as all doing well, and growing with that prosperous place into good business and high social standing.
  --H. O’DELL, representative of the wholesale dry-goods house of Marshal Field & Co., Chicago, has removed his family to this city, where they will spend the hot summer months. They have taken rooms over DAHLMAN’s, on the south side.
  --W. T. BURGESS informs us that the G. A. R. boys of Kansas and Missouri are going to attend the grand encampment at Minneapolis almost to a man. They have secured favorable rates over the C., R. I. & P. and hope to meet all the Iowa boys there.
  --The Brighton News , as a take off on McCOID’s Burlington Soldiers’ Home scheme, wants to know if Mose will give Brighton a cheese factory if they will support him. We venture to say that he will promise to furnish them two cheese factories, with a foot rest shop and a chromo thrown in.
  --The ticket selected by the Democratic National Convention at Chicago, which has just adjourned, was: President Governor CLEVELAND, of New York; For Vice President Thomas A. HENDRICKS, of Indiana. Intellectually these nominations are not so strong as the ones made by the Republicans, but the locality renders their success much more probable.

MONDAY MELANGE.
--------------------
  --Charles MOORE, of St. Louis, is here to-day.
  --James S. RICHARDSON left last night for a health seeking trip to Colorado, and will gather sunbeams there for a few weeks.
  --Rev. Mr. ARNOLD, of Evanston, Wyoming, occupied the pulpit of the Presbyterian church yesterday, in the absence of the pastor, Dr. EWING, whose wife is still very low.
  --Des Moines hotel keepers complain that since the prohibitory law went into effect the traveling public will not stay there over Sunday if they can avoid it, but move on to some anti-prohibition city.
  --The remains of Dr. George H. MYERS, who died Saturday at Lincoln, Nebraska, were brought here by the family, and the funeral took place yesterday afternoon from the residence of his father, Dr. J. L. MYERS, the services being conducted by the Rev. Hunt, of the Baptist church. He leaves a wife and two children, grown up, to mourn his untimely departure.
  --The Des Moines News thinks that when the Iowa farmers, who sold their lands and homes in Iowa and went to the wheat regions of Dakota, hear of the splendid outlook for a large crop in our state they will wish in vain for their old homes. The farmers who look about the world for a fairer land than is found within the state of Iowa is pretty certain of making a poor investment of his time.
  --The liquor firm of KOHN & ADLER, of Rock Island, are sending circulars all over the state containing a list of the different liquors handled by them with the price annexeb (sic). Accompanying these circulars is a pamphlet containing the prohibitory law, the penalty bill, the pharmacy law and in the back the Council Bluffs "pop" ordinance, which is styled by them "an act to evade the prohibitory law."
--------------------
Congressional Matters.

  Hon. M. A. McCOID, who has served three terms in Congress from this district, is now at home, and we learn is "repairing his fences" and getting matters in shape with the hope of a re-nomination. We cannot see with what propriety Mr. McCOID and his friends can insist upon his re-nomination, in the face of the facts existing that show clearly that he is the weakest possible candidate the republicans can present at the coming election. Four years ago Mr. McCOID carried this district by over five thousand majority, and this county (his own) by over eight hundred and fifty. At the last election his majority in the district was a little over two hundred, and in this county less than 150. At this rate of retrogression if re-nominated this year, his vote in the district would lack a few thousand of a majority, and he would entirely lose his own county.
  He claims that this county should be solid for him for a re-nomination. We cannot understand with what reason he expects this, in the face of the facts we have recited above.
  What right has a republican delegate, or a republican delegation from Jefferson county to insist on the nomination of Mr. McCOID, because he is a resident of Jefferson county, when he or they know, as well as they know anything, that his nomination portends defeat?
  What right have they to expect other counties in the district to come to his support, when they know that if he carries his own county at all it will be "by the skin of his teeth?"
  What right has Jefferson county to ask his re-nomination when it knows that it is the weakest possible nomination that can be made.
  The fact is patent to all observing politicians (not in the ring) throughout the district that McCOID has no following whatever among the people; that his only hope of a nomination lies in the fact that he has all the federal appointees--postmasters, marshals, deputy collectors, etc.,--supporting him. The biggest boom he expects when the Convention assembles, is the solid delegation from Lee county, which he imagines is mortgaged to him on the federal court question.
  McCOID lacks several elements of strength which are absolutely necessary at the coming election, among which we enumerate:
  1.  His admitted unpopularity.
  2.  His admitted incompetency.
  3.  His admitted partiality to one section of the district to the detriment of another.
  4.  He is unsatisfactory to the anti-prohibitionists throughout the district; and the district is anti-prohibition by nearly one thousand majority.
  So it is very plain that any nominee the republican party may present at the coming election will have all he can do to get elected, and it certainly behooves the party to present a candidate of unquestioned ability and integrity; free from local entanglements, and one that will be entirely acceptable to the prohibitionists and anti-prohibitionists, one who possesses elements of strength that will insure his triumphant election at the polls.
  The strongest man yet named to succeed Mr. McCOID, in our opinion, is the Hon. A. H. STUTSMAN, of Des Moines county, and THE JOURNAL will in a few days and from time to time, give good [3-4 missing words] that is in it.

Tuesday Tit-Bits. (Page 8)
--------------------
  --Joe BRADLEY is on the sick list.
  --A. F. ELY, Hannibal, Mo., is here.
  --C. B. MACK, of Rockford, is in the city.
  --John C. HUGHES, of Peoria, is here to-day.
  --N. P. LEVINSON, of Cincinnati, is in the city.
  --M. J. TAYLOR, of Burlington, was here to-day.

  --Jim BARTLETT and Henry ACKERMANN have purchased the barber shop of Charley POULTON and are now running two shops.
  --Fitz A. RATCLIFF, who is now on the road for Blackwell Bull Durham tobacco, is in the city spending a fortnight with his parents.
  --We see by the Emporia papers that Charley WILSON, formerly of this city, has taken unto himself a wife. The lady, we understand, is a charming widow form (sic) Burlington, Iowa.
  --The C., B. & Q. will sell round trip tickets to the annual re-union of the Grand Army of the Republic at Minneapolis July 23d to 25th at $11.50, with choice of routes. For further information apply to A. N. DUFFY, the Company’s agent.
--------------------
LIBERTYVILLE ITEMS.

  Will WINN is in Des Moines.
  A base ball match is being talked of between the single and married men.
  George KARNES, Burlington, spent the Sabbath in Libertyville visiting friends.
  George COYAN, manager of the creamery, goes to Kansas this week on business.
  A great deal of the last year’s crop of hay is being baled in this vicinity by a press from Fairfield.
  Mr. Wm. BALDING’s condition still continues to be very critical. He is under the care of Dr. WOODS, of Fairfield.
  A leap year party is on the tapis for this week by the young ladies and every young man will have an opportunity to find out how he stands in the estimation of his lady friends.                         RENRUT.

Wednesday Wanderings.
--------------------
  --McCOID is still anxious to help Keokuk out.
  --J. T. PEEK and H. LANPERT, of Chicago, are in the city.
  --Miss Lizzie McELHINNY and Bird HIGLEY leave for Cleveland, Ohio, to-morrow for a month’s visit.
  --Harry BLOSS leaves to-morrow morning for a trip over the Burlington Cedar Rapids & Northern Railway to advertise the State Fair.
  --The Hawkeye of this morning says: "Fred A. SPIELMAN left Fairfield on his bicycle at six o’clock yesterday morning and reached Burlington at 6 P. M. Quite a creditable performance."
  --Judge C. C. NOURSE, of Des Moines, whom the Prohibitionists have decided upon for Supreme Judge to displace Judge ROTHROCK, was in the city to-day closeted with the boss, Senator WILSON.
  --We call attention to the hotel card of the Gorham House, Burlington, Iowa, in another column. This popular house is now under the management of Colonel George A. DUNCAN, the most popular hotel man in Iowa, and it is a first-class house in every respect.
  --"Does prohibition prohibit?" It doesn’t seem to at Davenport, Ottumwa, Burlington, Marshalltown, Fort Madison, Council Bluffs, Keokuk, Sioux City, Des Moines, Dubuque and other large cities, where the saloons are openly selling beer. We believe so far it has prohibited in Fairfield.
  --The latest from McCOID is that he does not wish a re-nomination for himself but solely so that he will be in position to further benefit his friends in the district. Mose always was a self-sacrificing but rather sly old fox, and his present unselfish attitude is commendable in the highest degree.
  --List of letters remaining in the postoffice in this city unclaimed and advertised for week ending Tuesday, July 15th, furnished THE JOURNAL by Thomas L. HUFFMAN, Postmaster: Eliz. ALLERDICE, Becca BELL, William BICKFORD, E. L. EDWARDS, Frank G---, Millie J. HOREY, Maggie HENRICK, Elizabeth MORGAN, Henry SNIMPSON, Philip PAULSTON, Mrs. Addie THOLRNEY, E. A. SEARS, C. H. TILLOTSON.
