A writer in the Green Bay Republican,
probably, FIVE may Judge fromthe ear-marks.
the young gentleman who does the fancy
work generally, for that sheet, has given us
column in reply to our free trade and d.
rect taxation predictions. We do not pro-
pose to reply to it, bat we should have been
pleased to do SO had his article exhibited any
degree of candor or been made up of any
thing but palpable absurdities. Free trade,
protection, Martin Van Buren,, and State go
vernment, are mixed up in wonderful con-
fusion, so much so that we have no DISPOSE
ton to attempt an analysis. We will give
an extract or two from the article, which will
show its character:
"Should the tariff be so high that they
the English could not bring their goods
into our market, the people would purchase
only American manufactures; and all know
that there is no tax on articles manufactured
at home"
The young gentleman is evidently I'M
der the impression, that if we can entirely
prohibit foreign importations, we shall be
blessed with most perfect immunity in the
matter of taxation We recommend him to
an examination OF his dictionary where he
may learn the meaning of the word Protec-
ton. Again,
''According TO his theory it [sugar1 being
taxed t,ro or three cents pound for the sup
port OF the planter ormanuficturer. the price
must rise, as natural consequence; where
as instead of a rise it has fallen."
Admitting this to be true, how tax of
two or three cents ID. should tend to di-
mnish the price, will no doubt occasion much
conjecture; but inasmuch as it is not true,
we are not called upon to disprove the alb
surdty. In one breath we are told that pro-
lection is necessary to enable our manufac-
turers to live, in the next, that protection
cheapens the price of their goods So is the
tariff attempted TO be sustained.
We would say IN reply to the concluding
interrogatory of the editor, that taking every
thing into consideration, we pay more for
nearly every article we use, than we did two
years ago; but we would suggest that the
comparative prices of goods in our western
markets, is not a correct criterion of the mar
kets of the country generally, and more par
ticularly is not the market of Green Bay,
where the conscicnces of the traders are
the main agents in establishing the price of
goods.

II III T. III A II RIO Il

Since our last, Col. Albert, chief of the
Typographical corps, has visited our town.
for the purpose, as we stated, of establishing
the site of the government works. He arri
we'd on Tuesday and left on Thursday for
Chicago. Whilst we write, nothing definite
is known as to the point decided on for the
purpose mentioned. Since the Coils visit, we
find that the possibility at which we limited
in our last, of the appropriation being perver-
ted from IFS purpose to be applied at other
points than Southport, has attained in the
minds of many of our citizens, the appear
ance ola probability, though why or where
fore, we can find no reason. We have no
idea that such will be the case, for we believe
the government officials design to pursue the
law in the premises, and follow that course
VIII CHI every consideration which can influ-
ence in such matters, dictates What are
the facts?
The mouth of Pike creek, on each side
of which the town of Southport is buht, has
been declared time and again by government
engineers as having every advantage for the
| construction of good harbor at the average
cost of such works
Year after year, since the FIRST settlement
of the place we have petitioned Congress to
commence the work last session, in view Of
our commercial importance, ofthe thousands
of petitioners who asked it, of the energy o.
our delegate and other aid, an appropriation
was made. 1t was made for the construction
of harbor at Southport, and there can be
no doubt at all, was intended for the point
} where every petitioner who asked for bar
Dor expected it would be; where the town
, is built: town now only second in popula
ton and business in the territory.
. 1.-THE appropriation is not expended here
it will be expended at Pike river, aboei one
mile north of the town of Southport, and al
though in the township of Southport which
; stretches twelve miles along the lake shore
has always been and is yet known as Keno
sha. 1t has never been contended that bet
ter harbor could be madet there than at South
: port. and the difference in expense in favo
of Kenosha, is only claimed to be the me
, rest trfle. The place has no importance
: whatever; but one family resides there. No
5 soul within the past several years has pub
licly asked for an appropriation for harbo
there, and our delegate who pledged his ex
/ ertions to the 1000 citizens of Southport, we
are satisfied never entertained an idea thai
the result OF his labors would be thus appl
ed. Such are the facts. Can we then, fo
momcn, entertain doubt as the poin
where the money viii be expended. So en-
iirely would government officer stand with
out Justification in applying it to construct ;
harbor at Kenosha, that we have no idea such
responsibility would be assumed.

Coed Farmmer. 1t may be laid down as
a standing rule, and asa guide to direct our
exertions, that all good farming, the whole of
ihot process by which bad land is TO be con-

productive is TO be continued in that state,
is comprised in the three following opera
lions of hrsbandry- |. To carry off all stag

Iicious draining. ,. To return though the

We presume there is not candid, sens-
bic man in the county but will admit that the
democrats are in the ascendant. The wings
cannot then, with any reason hope for sue
cess, unless they calculate upon lukewarm-
ness or division in our ranks. Whether we
shall be triumphant rests with ourselves; let
us then commence the campaign with spirit
and with determination 10 succeed. The
several precinct primary meetings will be
held during the course of the week Let
there then be a full attendance on the coca
sion, and free and full interchange Of SEN
tment. Let delegates to the Convention
know the wishes of their constituents tina,
they may be prepared to carry them out.
We have very little fear for the result. So
far as we can Judge of the popular feeling al
present, we find in the universal desire fol
the success of our cherished principles, a
sure guarantee that all other considerations
will be estimated as upinportant in compar.
son, and that the action of their convention
will be responded to with unanimity and spi-
rit by the democracy of Racine

Mr. HubleaJ

Mr.. MISREPRESENTATION RAJ
NOR In the Philadelphia Gazette OF yes
rerday we find II stated that report was
current on the proceeding evening. that
he body of MIR. Muhlenbcrg had exhibited
signs of returning lie. We do not place
much confidence in the rumor, but give
the account as we find it.
The Ledger says -" report was re-
ceiv,d here yesterday, by gentleman
from Reading. that the funeral Of the
Hon. Henry A. Muhlenberg had been
postponed, in consequence OF the discove-
ry Of signs of life in the body, on We'd
nesday. II was said that this report was
current at Reading when the cars left,
add had produced ali extraordinary excite
nlent there. We made every inquiry to
ascertain the truth of so strange and I'M
looked for rumor, but could learn moth
ing in relation to it, farther than the state
ment made above.
Since writing the above, friend N this
city has Shown us q letter from Readirg.
dated August Ia, from which we made the
following extract:
:" Onr town is in the greatest confusion
at Mr.. Muhlenberg's death. He was to
have heen buried to-day-it was postpon-
ed. They think he is not dead. The
doctors cupped him to-day. and the cups
were filled with blood, and what is still
more astonishing, it was warm. They
had ice abou; him until yesterday noon.
There appears not to have been any change
in him he looks just the same as he did
when living. People ale here from all
parts Of tine state. Crowds about his
house all day.-even now, nine O'Clock at
night, crowds are waiting about his
house. The report is that he is not dead.
1t is not known when he will be buried
not Of Course until some change takes
place"
Mr.. .Huileaberg.-The Phila. Gazette
Of yesterday says. 1--WE learn by this
mornings advices from Reading, that the
funeral of Mr.. Muhlen5erg took place yes
to-day"

LATE ELECTIONS.

A CANDID vIEw.-All will admit that the
popular vote is the true test by which to
estimate the political character of state.
So many local causes are liable 10 influence
the election of members to the legislature,
that it shows nothing. The wings claim to
have gained in the legislatures of North Ca
rolina and Indiana sufficient to give them a
majority. There is no doubt but they have
in North Carolina, but it is by no means GER
tain that they have in Indiana. 1.-THE figures
of the New York Journal of Commerce may
be relied on, the contrary is the fact and we
shall have majority in both branches of the
legislature. OF this we shall know certain
before long. But to the popular vote. Since
the nomination elections have been held in
LOUISIANA, North Carolina, Indiana, Illinois,
Kentucky, Missouri, and Alabama. OF
these, Louisiana, North Carolina, Indiana,
and Kentucky, went for Harrison in 1910.
In Sl2, Indiana, and Louisiana, were demo-
cratic. AT the recent election, every state
which was democratic in 1912 we have again
carried by the popular voice; compared with
LORI, WE nave SditiSd oldtCS vi
and Louisiana; and compared with that year
we have gained about 5000 on tie wing ma
iority in North Carolina, and about $4,000
on shat of Kentucky. We hold our own
compared with the election of 1912, when
we carried some 10 states out of the 26. If
these results mean any thing, they certainly
promise glorious democratic triumph in
November.

TEMPERANCE AND TExAs.-A striking
,xcmplilicaton of the relation which TEN.
p,rance Tears to the pauperism of the coun-
~, is shown in the experience of the State
II Massachusetts during the last year. Ac.
.ordng to an estimate of Mr.. Williams, the
emperance agent, the pauper tax of Massa-
chusetts amounted, few years ago, &c
s. 0,0oo-eight tenths ofwh;ch was asccr
aimed TO be the result of ardent spirits
Two years ago this tax was reduced to Sl35
40, and last year it amounted 10 only Sll
900. This great reduction is 80 be &C
'ounted for by the fact that within those
ew years there have been thirty thousand
runkards reformed.

CLAY AND ANNExATIoN.-Mr. Rives, a
Wing Senator fom Virginia, said in a late
speech which is reported in the Richmond
Wing, that he himself was not opposed TO
the ultimate annexation of Texas" and de-
clared his beliefthat "Mr. Clay is for ultimate
annexation-the whole course of Mr.. Clay
shows this, and am willing to leave it in
the hands Of Mr.. Clay" This, coupled
with the fact that the wings in almost every
instance run candidates in favor of annexation
explains the reason why the Texas question
did moi help us in the south, to any extent,
in the recent elections.

We may never hope that the condition Of
society will be essentially bettered as long
as wealth is the standard of mans respect
ability. We have now in our minds eye, a
RAN possessed of all the Christian virtues in
an eminent degree; charity, faith, hope, and
universal love and goodwill towards men.
He wants FOR much essential 10 the comfort
of hi,nself and family, yet he does moi replne
but llbors on full Of cbeerfulness and hope.
He judges not his enemy harshly but in
spirit of charity attributes 10 error in himself
the cause of enmity towards him. As we
said, he possesses in an eminent degree
those attributes which elevate man more near
ly to the great type of what be should be;
yet he meets not the smile nor congraiula-
ton of society. The secret is, he is poor.
Again. we have in our mind, IS eye, an indI-
vidual whose character is the opposite of all
this. His virtues are few and his vices ma
nv. That for which the poor mai is shun-
ned and made an outCast, he is in the daily
habit and practice of, We. il does not affect
his standing for he has gold He is admired
aud hattered. and thus it is. We seek and
pay homage to wealth, although we know ii
neither brings happiness to its possessor, MOI
good TO society at large, and we pass by and
slight those virtues, the general prevalence
of which can alone bring us happiness here
and hereafter If we would do away with
the vice and strife which agitates and afllicts
all society, we must change our conduct in
this particular. Vice is now only hideous
as she appears in poverty stricken garb; we
must learn TO thrust her from US, though
clothed in the habiliments of wealth.
