81 The Racine .fdrocdte thus comes
back upon our remarks of few DAYS since
in reply to its structures upon our table
of exports. We have to remark once
more that in the essential matters of the
tables there is no question but they were
correct with reference to both the places.
proving clearly that the export business
of this place is greater than that of Ra-
cine. By its silence on this point the
Advocate implicitly confcsSes this.
and il we cannot ADMIRE its candor
or honesty we can its shrewdness ia
manufacturing little mock dignity, be-
hind which to shield the silence it feels
to be necessary. Our opinion is that we
shall never be able to get up to that pitch
of "manliness" which will induce the Ad-
vocate to notice us on this point. Doubt
less it thinks the least said the soonest
mended:
The Advocate finds no fault whatever
with the manufacturing statistics of ke-
nosha. We only object to the use made
Of them in adding them to the exports"
and then declaring that they are exports"
Of that city. The Kenosha Telegraph
does not, and dares not, meet the issues.
but shuffles and eyades it. We cannot
waste our time on any paper which has
not manlinesS enough to be honest; and
until the Telegraph shows more manli-
ness than in its reply to us, we shall cease
TO notice it.

e.. The Milwaukee Meas copies the
Racine Advocates article announcing
Messrs. Kilbourn and Strong, as Repub
lican candidates for e. S. Senator, with
the GLOWING comments:
So says the Racine 4drocafe, in regard
TO the Republican" and +" Barstow De-
tmocracy" candidates. We should like to
see some authoritative exposition of the
political views of some of the candidates
above named. Mr.. DURKEE is known as
a consistent Freesoiler. Mr.. kILBoURN
has been claimed as Democrat in this
city, having received his election as May
or through Democratic nomination. and
having been endorsed as Democrat by
the Daily Wisconsin.
1t is evident from what we see around
us that Mr.. KILRoURN is in the ascend
ent with the Fusionists and his preten-
sions, we learn, will be backed by few
self styled Democrats. The papers in his
interest in this city, are the Wisconsin,
and Free Democrat, and the influence of
these, together with that Of one or two
Rail Road Companies and Of a new secret
order it is said gives the pretensions of
Mr.. X. such preponderance over the
other candidates as to make his friends
feel confident of his success, if fusion
candidate is elected al. As Father
Richie used to say, nous verronS.
There is nothing in the above which
particularly requires notice except the al
fusion to the political position and stand
ing Of these men. 1t confirms What we
stated yesterday, and we think justified
our remarks. As to Mr.. kilbourn's be-
ing in the ascendant or being supported
by the Free Democrat, we think there is
nothing of it. We believe the Republi-
cans being the majority will be sensible
enough to take man undoubtedly with
them and of them.
We heartily endorse the conclusion of
the News article, which is as follows:
But if anybody is elected Senator this
winter, we trust it will be a person OF
positive character, whose political course
has been consistent; and not a shutting.
cvasiye. go-between. who seeks an cleo.
ton by concealment of his principles, and
wi. can not therefore succeed without
oleatlro somebody. Give us man who
has the courage to proclaim his principles,
and the honesty to ask for an election up
on the strength of those principles.

i We were st one time under the
impression that Kansas would be affce
territory and free state but recent events
have shaken that opinion, indeed, have
left us with very little reason to hope for
any such result. Without the repeal of
the Missouri Compromise the question
would never have arisen. 1t was free
territory and would have forever remain
ed so. The Compromise was repealed
for no other purpose than to make it slave
territory and eventually slave state, and
those who repealed it are moving steadi-
ly to their purpose. a pro-slavery dele
gate to Congress has been elected and
taken his seat distinctly on that issue, all
the influences of the territory, establish
ID by the General Government are Of
+h.~same character, and short of a mira
cle no see no reason to expect that the
timeis distant when Kansas will be knock
ing for admission into the Union as a
slave State md will she be then re-
fused? You can tell reader, IS we'll as

are decidedly against 1t.

AZ it is hardly to be supposed the Re

would naturally be that Messrs. kilbourn

ton. We'can only say this, if the hard
earned victory of the Republican party is
TO be turned to dust and ashes by its
support and elevation of "doubtful y
men, it will be with our opposition, and
against our decided protest. We are by
no means disposed to be captious. nor to
clamor for our own personal preferences
but we do think we have right as an
honest member of the Republican party
and devoted to its principles, to demand
that its candidates shall have given eyi-
dence enough Of devotion to those prin
ciples, to Justify a confidence that they
may safely be contided to them.
