Merchants Union Exnress.


We call attention to the card of J. A. Slos-
son, local agent for the new Merchants Union
Express Co. This Company commences bu-
siness to-day on all the Passenger trains on
the Chicago & Milwaukee Railway 1t will be
seen that the Co. is now prepared to do gen
eral Express business with all parts of the
country. And it is high time. The old con-
solidated U. s. & American Express Co. IS have
grown fat and lazy Out not ragged) out of
their extortions from the business of the conn.
try, and 1t is time for little healthy compe-
tition. Meetings of leading business men are
being held throughout the country to give ex.
preston to the general feeling in regard to the
Express question. Such a meeting was lately
held at Watertown, N Y, at which the fol-
lowing preamble and resolutions were adopted
and signed by over eighty business men and
firms of that city.
Whereas, 1t Is well known to business men that
the rates hitherto charged by the American Express
Company and its connections have been exceeding,
y onerous and exorbitant: And whereas the comueH
tition now for the first time promising to be siIc-
cesslul, OF the Merchants Union Express Com-any
which proposes co carry freight fair living rate
has already produced marked change in the price
OF Express matter; and whereas movement has
recently been set on foot by the old COMPANY to re.
rdleB LnOSe lines where the Merchants
UAlon completes with them, and on such lines ONLY
and where these old lines have combined to refuse
on any and all their routes freight brought to them
by the Merchants Union, showing as their conduct
does no desire to accomm odate the public, but
simply combined effort to break down, If possible
the new company; And whereas we believe the in.
terests OF business men OF this country will be best
subserved by generous and steadfast support o.
the Merchants Union Express Co., Therefore
ResotUed, That we will use our influence to sus.
tam the Merchants Union Express Company both
in giving 1t our patronage and TO persuade those
with whom We do business, to do likewise
RssotUsd, That we will not he induced BY the low
rates which may be offered by the American Elk
press Company 10 give our patronage to that COM
pany, believing that such acourse will not only en-.
sure our permanent interest, but that the old compa
will again return to its former exorbtant rates fit
can succeed in driving away the Merchants Elk.
press, or compelling Its consolidation, as has al.
ready been done with several former attempts to
| tablish new Express liues.
| Resolved, That not only the stakeholder but ev-
cry business man of our locality be invited to sign
these resolutions and to act in their spirit as the
most eticacious means OF relieving the business
community against an onerous and long established
monopoly.

The Pantomimin Exhibition.

Was a complete success, both in manage.
ment and in a financial point Of view. The
Hall contained as many both evenings, as
could be comfortably seated and the audi
ence exhibited their appreciation by frequent
applause. Rev. w. T. Smithett, deserves the
thanks of our citizens for the energy and tact
he has displayed in bringing out so pleasant
an exhibition, and at the same time contribu-
ting to good cause. The total proceeds
were about $40; expenses $75, leaving a net
profit of about $95. The orchestral accompan-
iment under the direction of Prof. Chas K
Waite, contributed in no small degree to the
enjoyment of the occasion. We are glad to
see so successful movement made toward the
ormation of an orchestra. We understand it is
the intention to get up full brass band. Our
Jcitizens should see that the young men who
are making this effort to get up a home band
have all the encouragement that circumstan-
ces will admit of.

The Returns.-How they were Received.

The Returns.-How they were Received.
| When the returns began to come in by tele-
graph on Tuesday evening, the Republican
Cub room was the scene of the most joyous
demonstrations Our friend II. B. Hinsdale,
who has had laboring oar all through the
canvass, brought and read the dispatches that
were sure to be responded to with enthusiasm.
When the news from Milwaukee came the
sheers were loud and prolonged.
All day Wednesday everybody seemed to be
remarkably good natured. The few johnson
Democrats who could not join in the general
Joy over the result, were very reticent. While
Republicans heartily congratulated each other
they had no disposition to add to the poign-
ancy of copperhead grief by exulting over a
fallen foe.
On Wednesday evening an impromptu glo-
rification meeting was held at Simmons Hall.
The Hall was filled by as jolly crowd as we
ever saw there. Judge Van w ,ck, President
of Kenosha Republican Union Club, presided.
Several capital songs were splendidly sung by
the Glee Club, which added not a little to the
interest of the occasion. And here we will
say that the gentlemen who composed the
U1ec NluU, ut5eTYe Inc InOsG nearly Lnanhb OI
the party. Throughout the canvass they have
generously given their time and talent to the
good cause, and have contributed in no small
degree to the spirit and interest of the can
vass. Returning from this depression to the
meeting of which we were speaking The
meeting was addressed by Judge Van Wyck,
Judge Jilsun, o. s. Head, Esq, Mayor Hynes,
Fl. B. Hinsdale, and J. T. Shepherd, in very
brief but telling speeches, in reference to the
election and its results. The remarks of the
several speakers were received with unbound
cd applause. Although the enthusiasm was
not quite Of that character that shook the
same Hall, when we met to celebrate Lees
surrender, we all felt that it was victory
over the same enemy, though this time
achieved with ballots instead of bullets.
At half-past eight the Hall was cleared and
taken possession of by goodly company of
Gentlemen and Ladies, who proposed to cele-
brate the grand Union victory, by Gripping
the light fantastic toe" which was kept up
well into "the wee sma' hours syant the
twal.'

Aokno wledgements,

~-OAAAS OAAOhSo'
In the hurry of getting our paper out last
week, and getting the election returns of the
county together, and in shape for publication,
we overlooked some things, and others that
should have appeared, wer crowded out for
want of room. We should above all things
aeknowled ge the favor of our friends who en-
abled US to give the full vote of the county the
day after election.
To our friend P. Gasoline, we were Indebted
for the returns from the town of Somers. Our
esteemed friend H. A. Newbury, handed us
the figures from Paris. Our friend ]. w
Evans, favored us with the returns from
Brighton, while the Clerk of the board elect
E. G. Timme furnished us with the result in
Wheatland. Our old friend j. G. McKessor
sent US the gratifying result in Randall. The
Salem returns were handed in by the Sheriff
elect, 7. A. Healey. Our friend s. E. Tarbell
of Bristol, furnished us with the figures from
that town. Pleasant Prairie returns were
handed us by our young friend John sauber
also by the Town Clerk John Oliver, who nev
erneglects any such courtesy.
To all those gentlemen we return our sin
cere thanks

Wrecking.

portion of the city, the forepart of last month
with cargo of 800 tons of coal, went to pieces

coal has been washing ashore in great quaint

fortunate owner of the land along the shore
