Continued from the Firtt run.
Antagonism with the Domocrats, execpt during the
comparatively brief period of tho Rebellion, whou
Iio cast his fortune with that of his State.
Colouol If. C. Powers, the radical candidate for
Ueulenant-Governor, is a Northern roan, who
nerved In the Union army through the Kobolllon,
nd at its close settled in Mlslsnlppl, where ho
t)Onght a larjte plantation. Ho has taken little part
in politics up to thia time, aud has always been
looked upon as a liberal Republican.
The Rev. James Lynch, the radical candidate for
flooretary of State, Is regarded as tho most ablo and
Influential colored man In the State, lie was at one
time settled In this city, where he edited the Chris
tian Recorder, tho official organ of the African Metho
dist Episcopal Chtlrch.
Henry Mnsgrove, the radical candidate for State
Auditor, Is a Northern man, who has settled In Mis
sissippi since the war. lie is the owner of a nno
' plantation, is ono of the strongest men on the ticket,
and came within nine votes of the nomination for
Lieutenant-Governor.
Major W. n. Yasser, tho radical candidate for
Treasurer, Is an old resident of Mississippi, who has
lcon a consistent Republican since the passage of
the Reconstruction acts. He was originally a Whig,
and opposed secession.
Judge J. S. Morris, the radical nomlnco for Auditor-General,
was ran for this position by the Repub
licans last year, and received a renoniinatlon by ac
clamation. He Is looked upon as ono of tho ablest
lawyers In tho State, and was ono of tho original
Eepubllcans of Mississippi, lie was a member of
'the first party convention held In the State, and has
been true to the faith ever Bince.
Captain Henry H. Pease, tho radical candidate for
Superintendent of rnblic Instruction, has been for
Ave years Superintendent of Kducation, under tho
vllrect control of General O. O. Howard. He Is
pfedged, If elected, to seek to inaugurate a wise
system of free schools, which shall bo conducted
economically, but with sufficient energy to place the
means of obtaining Instruction within the reach of
all classes.
Judge Lewis Dent, who received the unanimous
nomination of the Conservative Convention, as Is
well known, is a brother-in-law of President Grant,
the Rebel leaders thinking that by this course they
could succeed in regaining the control of the State
government. But the President has from the first
repudiated the movement, and refused to permit his
family ties to Interfere with what he regards as his
duty to the whole coantry. Before the war, Judge
Dent was a Democrat. He was a member of tho
convention which framed the Constitution of Call
lornla, and took an active part In the deliberations
Of that Body. He was a Democratic candidate for
Congress in California when the State was first or
ganlzcd, but, although running ahead of his ticket,
was defeated by a few votes. Subsequently ho was
by election a member of the Supreme Court of that
State. Recently he has been practising In the Su-
' preme Court of the United States at Washington,
and having purchased a plantation in Missis-
Blppl, Is of course a full-fledged citizen of that State,
with nothing of the carpet-bagger about him.
Judge E. Jeffords, the conservative candidate for
Lieutenant-Governor, was a Douglas Democrat,
but became a Republican In 1661. He was removed
. from office In Mississippi by Goneral Ames a year or
two ago, and was Chairman of the State Committee
appointed by the conservatives to secure tho defeat
of the constitution which was submitted to the vote
" of the people, and rejected, In 1807.
Thomas Sinclair,- the conservative candidate for
. Secretary of State, is a 'colored man, and a native
Of Mississippi. He la represented to be intelligent
and well educated, and his supporters claim for him
that his fidelity to the resident white population

aiplantatlon there. He was appointed a Registrar
toy Goneral Ord, and subsequently was Sherlir of his
county, from which office he was removed by
General Ames.
General Robert Lowry, the conservative nominee
lor Attorney-General, was originally a Whig, and
' opposed secession until it seemed useless, when he
espoused the cause of bis State, and as Colonel, on
Jnany bloody fields, led the 0th Mississippi Regi
ment. For his gallantry he was promoted by the
Confederate authorities to the rank of General. It
1 said of him that on the very day of the election
f the mombers-pf.tu8HluCe23ion tjonventloa he"
. jnade a st'dag "and earnest speech against the fool
hardy experiment, bnt the position of the State hav
ing bqen taken, he followed her fortunes and carried
aer flag until It was overwhelmed with defeat.
Professor Thomas S. Gatlirlght, the conservative
candidate for Superintendent of Instruction, Is the
principal of a flourishing educational establishment
In the State. He has not heretofore taken a promi
nent part In political affairs, bat before the war was
' known as a Union Whig. He is Master of tho Grand
Lodge of the Order of Masons in Mississippi, aud is
well known throughout the state.
1 he Two Platform,
i The convention which nominated the radical ticket
contained a representative from every county in the
State but one. The resolutions adopted by it were
In substance as follows :
First. The Union first, lost, and forever.
Second. Freedom of speech and of the press.
Third. Universal sntl'rage and universal amnesty.
Fourth. Free schools, their benehts to be extended
to every child In the State.
FiftK Opposition to that unjust system of taxation
Which discriminates against labor and unjustly bears
upon the industrial classes.
UixUi. The revision of the conditions of free labor,
with a view especially to a mure summary process
lor tho recovery of debts.
Seventh. Adherence to the thirteenth and four
teenth amendments to the Constitution of the Uiilted
States.
Kiqhtk. The exercise of the whole political influ
ence of the State with Congress for the immediate
removal, as provided, of the disabilities Imposed by
the fourteenth amendment.
Rinth. The ratification of the fifteenth amend
ment to the Constitution of the I'nitocl States.

the disfra&chlsing and proscription clauses left out.
- The Conservative Convention contained three hun
dred members, seventy-five of whom were colored,
but all the counties in the State were not represented.
The platform adopted by it, which Is nut very ex
plicit, reads as follows :
First. We reaffirm the principles enunciated In
the Constitution of the 53l of June.
Second. That in addition thereto, we announce
Ourselves in favor of a liberal system of freo schools,
and of such equit&b'o distribution of the public
school funds as may secure the largest degree of
iruod feeliug among all classes of our citizens.
Third. That we cordially Invite the emigration of
capitalists and manufacturers into our State, and
pledge ourselves to such legislation as shall most
effectually foster all tho industrial pursuits of our
State, and thoroughly develop an its resources.

The election In this State begins to-day, and
by an order Issued by General Sherman on Septem
ber 16, extends through four days, closing therefore
on the 4th of December.
The President's Proclamation
ordering the election to be held was Issued on the
lBth of July last, and reads as follows :
lly the 1 'resident o the United State of America:
A PROCLAMATION.
In pursuance of the provisions of tho act of Con

tution in tho following manner, viz. : Each voter

hundred and sixty-nine, and of the Independence

U. 8. Grant.
By the President
Hamilton Fisn, Secretary of Stato.
An EiiibarrimnIiiK Mde Jamie.
Although the great majority of tho people of the
State appear disposed to accept the proposed consti
tution, there is an embarrassing side issue which
may endanger its ratification. In connection with
the constitution, a vote Is to be taken upon several
ordinances adopted by the Austin Convention. Somo
of these appropriate large amounts of the public
domain and State bonds to public corporations, and
others exempt such bodies, to a greater or less ex
tent, from the burdens of taxation directly or indi
rectly. It is claimed that the ratification of the con
Biltution will carry with It the approval of these ordl
nances, against which there Is arrayed a strong op
position throughout the State.
Tbe Three Parties.
In Texas, as well as in Mississippi, an election for
Stato officers, members of the Legislature, and Rep
resentatlvcs In Congress, will be held at the same
time that the Constitution Is voted upon, so that,
with the ratification of the Constitution, everything
will be In readiness for the restoration of the State
and tho termination of military rule.
Tho convention which placed the radical or regu
lar Republican ticket, headed by General E. J. Davis
for Governor, in the field, assembled at Houston on
the 7th of June last, having previously held a ses
sion, commencing on May 10, at Galveston, at which
nothing of importance was transacted, and remained
In session three days. In the platform adopted by
this convention the main principles of tho Republi
can party were endorsed, and the adoption of the
new constitution recommended. A resolution re
commending the enfranchisement of all the whites
was objected to by a prominent member, who moved
its rejection ; but this motion was lost, and the reso
lutlon was adopted. A resolution approving the ac
tionof General Reynolds In bringing the Jefferson
prisoners to trial was also adopted.
In a letter dated September 4, 18G9, and addressed
to President Grant by General Reynolds, the military
commander of the district, Is given the following
account of the origin and progress of the breach in
the loyal ranks of the State, which resulted In the
formation, subsequent to the Davis Convention, of
the conservative ticket:
"You will remember that about the 4th of March
last there were present In Washington two delega
tions of Texans, both claiming to be representatives
of the Republican party of Texas, one of these
delegations, headed by General K J. Davis, was ap
pointed by the Constitutional Convention ; the other
delegation, headed by General A. J. Hamilton, was
seJf-annointed.
"Pursuing the policy which I had decided upon in
October, 1867, upon my arrival In Austin, of always
endeavoring to produce harmony among all classes
of Republicans, I declined to permit myself to be
identified specifically with either faction, but fiankly
told their leaders that I would recommend for oilloo
men of both factions who, I was satisfied, would
make good officers. The Federal appointments were
pretty evenly oiviuea between the two ructions,
mucn to my grauucHtion, as i sun nupeu to see nar-
mony brought about.
"The radicals (E. J. Davis wing) charged, while in
Washincton, that the conservative Kepuoucans (A.
J. Hamilton wing) had entered into a coalition with
the Democrats of the State to support A. J. Hamil
ton for Governor, and in turn to be permltteJ-fey-
nim, ii eiecieu, wo ciei i men uuiucuuij-xin tne new
State Government. I then offered fa denounce this
coalition to you on the production of satisfactory
eviueiicu mm it ciimun,.--ine evidence was not pro
duced. . "'
At last convention" the ono held in Austin.
June 7-9 "E. J. Davis was nominated for Governor.
A. J. Hamilton, Pease, Hell, Haynes, Langley, and
iu an v other conservative iiepuoncans were in nous-
ton at this time, but took no part In the proceedings
of the convention. I am assured by parties in whom
I place reliance, that overtures were made at this
convention ty tne radicals ana rejected uy tne con
servatives.
"A ticket, with A. J. Hamilton ror Governor and
E. J. Hamilton for Lieutenant-Governor, might have
been nominated then and there, and would have
produced harmony in the Republican party, but for
the persistent opposition of the A. J. Hamilton (con
servative) iuction. mis convention niignt nave
been larger, or another one held, but for the same
opposition, and to-day the only organized Repub
lican Dartv In Texas is that headed by E. J. Duvis,
The conservative faction have opposed all organized
concert of action in the Republican party. It is be
lieved that the reason for this action Is found in the
fact that although the Democrats will not openly
affiliate witn tne conservative ucpuinicaus, many
Democratic papers advocate the election of A. J.
Hamilton for Governor. Some of them place his
name at the head or tneir papers, others uo not an
nounce his name, but support him.
"The circumstances all considered. I am con
strained to believe that the coalition which has been
charged as existing between the conservative o' A,
I. Hamilton Republicans, and the Democrats (gene
rally ex-Rebels) does actually exist. The platforms
of the two wings of the Republican party are pre
cisely the same. The radical v. ing act out their pro
fessions of adherence to the reconstruction laws of
Congress and present for oltlce men who ere quali
fied under these laws. The conservative wlug fre
quently nominate men for cilice who are known to
be disqualified under the reconstruction laws, but
who are also known to be acceptable to the Demo
crats."
But, since there was no issue of principle Involved
ostensibly in the conflict between the radicals an 1
conservatives, the old-fashioned flre-catlng and
negro-shooting Democracy were not content with
their chances of a restoration to power, although as
General Reynolds said in the concluding paragraph
of his letter to the President quoted above:
"The success of the A. J. Hamilton faction, as It
would be nroduced by Democratic votes, will be the
defeat of Republicanism In Texas, and will put the
State In the hands of the very men who, during tne
entire period of the Rebellion, exerted every nerve
to destroy the Unton, and who have uniformly
opposed the reconstruction laws with a persistency
worthy of a better cause."
The out-and-out secession Democracy therefore
held a convention of their own at Brenborn on the
8th of September, made up exclusively of editors,
at which a genuine secession ticket was placed in
the field, headed by Hamilton Stnart for Governor,
and with opposition to the new constitution and
Congressional reconstruction in general as the chief
plank in its platform, the convention resolving that
they "preferred the continuation of military govern
ment to the restoration of the State on the proposed
dishonorable terms." A considerable number of the
Democratic papers of the State have given In their
adhesion to It, but others have continued to support
the Hamilton ticket, and the Democratic State Cen
tral Committee have published an address urging a
united support of the Hamilton ticket.
The Candidates
of the three rival factions are the following:
liadical
Governor Edmund J. Davis.
Lieutenant-Governor J. W. Flanagan.
Comptroller J. Frank Carter.
Commissioner of Land Office Jacob Knechler.
Conservative.
Governor A. J. Hamilton.
Lieutenant-Governor Albert n. Latimer.
Comptroller Armistead T. Monroe.
Treasurer James W. Thomas.

Governor Hamilton Stuart
Lieutenant-Governor James J. Armstrong.
Treasurer I. . Klllough.
Con i p trol 1 er Kd w ard I )o w n ey.
Commissioner of Land Oltlce J. P. Rector.
TEXAS.
In addition to the candidates for Lieutenant-Governor
mentioned above, thore are two others In the
Held one, J. Wells Thompson, being a Democrat,
and the other, Boulds Baker, a conservative. Some
of the Hamilton men will support George W. Dia
mond for Comptroller, it being roported that Mr.
Monroe favors the election of General Davis as Gov
ernor. And Borne of them will support A. O. Cooley,
and others Thomas W. Ward, for Commissioner of
the General Land Ofllco.
The following Is a list of the candidates for Con
gress which have been announced, In vurlousways:
In the First di-trict :
G. W. Whlttomore, Republican.
Colonel James Armstrong, Democrat.
In the Second district:
Captain John C. Connor. Democrat.
Alvln Wright, Conservative.
Joshua JolniBini, Conservative.
Richard H. Taylor, Democrat.
General Horace Houghton, Conservative.
in tne j iiiki uistrict :
General William T. C'larko, Republican.
General H. O. Shields, Conservative.
Colonel Jacob Klllott, Democrat.
Major Thomas P. Ochiltree, Conservative.
In the Fourth district :
Edward Drgener, Republican.
Major William M. Varncll, Republican.
Colonel John F. Haynes, Conservative.
Alexander Kossy, Conservative.
General E. J. Davis, the radical candidate for Gov
ernor, is a native of Texas. Before the Rebellion he
was a District Judge in the western part of the
State. He entered the Union army early in tho war.
In 1800 he was elected a delegato to tho Coustltu
tional Convention. He was also elected to the last
Constitutional Convention, ami was its presiding
officer.
General A. J. namilton, who is familiarly known
throughout the country as plain "Jack" Hamilton,
Is a native of Alabama, but removed to Texas in
1846. Ho was in Congress when the war broke out,
and made a last and most earnest appeal to the peo
ple of Texas to romaln in the Union. When ho re
turned home he went to Austin, and In the Secosslon
Convention he made a powerful Union speech, in
which he declared that he would stand by the Fede
ral Government. He then stumped several portions
of the State, urging the people to defeat the ordi
nance of secession. He failed In this, and was
finally driven from the State and came North. At
tho close of the war he returned to Texas and was
appointed Military Governor of the State by Presi
dent Lincoln in 18G9, which office he held nntil the
clcotion ot Goveruor Throckmorton. He was a dele
gate to the "Southern Loyalists' Convention," which
was held in this city In September, 1860, and also
participated in the Soldiers' Convention which was
held In Pittsburg soon after.
The UevlNcd UeRlMlratlon.
On the 1st of October General Reynolds Issued his
order providing for the election, In which was in
eluded directions for the Hoards of Registrars to
meet on the 10th of November for the purpose of re
vising the registration lists, and to remain In session
for ten days. The order was extremely liberal in its
provisions, impartial and just, anil was apparently
well designed to obtain a fair expression of the
people's will. The papers of all parties in tho State
cunimendcd It, although some regret was expressed
that It Is provided that the votes shall be taken only
at the several county seats. Much care has been
tyken to guard against frauds, and the extension of
the time for the election was asked for by General
Reynolds, and granted by the Prostdent, on account of
the small number of voting places established in the
State.
The result of the election Is Involved In consider
able doubt, by reason of the existence of the three
tickets; but if Mr. Stuart should withdraw from
Hamilton any considerable number of Democratic
votes, the success of General Davis will be assured.

CENTRAL RAILROAD OF IOWA.
ITS
SEVEN PER CENT. GOLD
FIRST MORTGAGE BONOS,
Free of Government Tax,
At 95 and Accrued Interest.
This road runs throuch tho richest and mnat
thickly settled portion of this magnlficont State, and '
is the only link wanting to connect St. Loula and St.
Foul by a direct line, 14T miles shorter than any i
other. -
It runs through the great coal fields of Southern
Iowa to the North, where coal is indispensable and
must be carried.
It runs from the great lumber regions of the North,
through a district of country which is destitute of
this prime necessity.
It does not run nmocon a W'lperness, where
it would wait for years for a population to give it
business, but through a tier of counties which are
now producing about twenty million bushels or
grain, most of which is freight for railroads.
Forty-five miles are Just finished, and the Super
intendent reports that on the portion open for busi
ness the net earnings are rnoro than the Interest
liabilities.
Sixty miles more are graded, and a million and
a half of dollars have already been expended on the
work.
The mortgage is made to the Farmers' Loan and
Trust Company, and bonds can be issued only at the
rate of $10,000 per mile, or only half the amount upon
some other roads. Special security is provided for
the principal and for the payment of Interest.
First mortgages upon most railroads are the very
safest investments, and, so far as we can loarn, there
is not a single completed line in the Northwest which .'
la nrt Anlv vw i . .v II. !.... i ...... . . .
npon its stock.
The Immense grain and other freights to be car
ried away, and tho domestic supplies to be brousrht
in, ensure a profitable business.
r urn, mortgage uonas ior so small an amount upon
a road running through'such a rich and already ,
well-settled part of Iowa, can well be recommended
as a perfectly safe as well as very profitable Invest- "
mcnt. At the present rate they pay about ten per
ent. on the Investment. Over UD0.0W have alreadv '
been taken by the Company's officers and others ln-
may be obtained, and subscriptions will be received
