was working there. A number of men
are supposed to be buried in the ruins, and
efforts are making to extricate them.

lE We Judge from the tone Of the
Men 4sha and Mauitowoc press that the NJ
& NJ. r. Z. is not to be completed imme
diateIy. Ifthe latter city would devote a
litle energy toward building plank road
into this county, our citizens would feel
compensated for the want Of her railroad.
Will not tho citizens of Nanitowoc look
to their own interests and make at least
one more effort to effect this much needed
project? Let us hear from the Plot or
Tribune-Cdlu1eet Republican.
We have labored under the impression
that the Pilot had spoken long and loud
in favor oxspsoFsopening and improv
ingSoads into the country, and we repeat
that our merchants and business men will
regret it in time unless they wake up to
the fact that it takes good roads to build
up town. Farmers will travel on the
best thoroughfares.

Importance Of a Railroad to

In the last Menasha Conseryator we find
an interesting article touching the business

the greater portion of Northern Wisconsin,

TIE County tickets.

We have thus far said but little ln regard to
The claims Of the candidates for the several
county Offices to be filed at the coming Octo-
Der election. We have treated the Opposition
nominees as gentlemen. In fact we have not
SAID word against any OF them personally, not
because we could not have done SO with truth,
but becau7- we are averse to dragging perso-
nahtie> INTO politics. In dark contrast with
our course is that OF the abolition organ Of this
place. Abuse, and SANDER and olackguardisn
OF the Democratic candidates, fill lis columns
weekly. We have rafrained from noticing
that papers attacks upon our candidates, for
the reason that the PEOPLE KNOW IT'S
CHARACTER, and that the PEOPLE KNOW
OUR RCANDIDATES Men like S. H. TATE.
JOHN J. CESSNA, RICHARD McMULLIN,
JOHN S. BRUMBAUGH, GEO. BAUGH-
MAN and JACOB WALTER, need no vindi-
cation at our hands. The people know them
and will yindcate them at the polls.
On the other hand, we oppose Messrs.
BOWLES, MULLIN, FEIGHTNER, and the
rest ofthe Black Republican county ticket, be-
cause they stand upon al unsound political plat
form, because they are the nominees OF clique
in Bedford borough which have chalked out for
themselves offices and nominations to the ex-
ciuSon of worthier men in their own ranks,
and because, taken as whole, the
can didates on the Black Republican ticket, are
not 80 well qualified 20 discharge the duties Of
the offices for which they are candidates, as
hose on the Democratic ticket.
