OUR TICKET.

The Republican Union State Conyen
ton, which met at Madison on the 4th
inst, nominated ticket which must give
satisfaction to every loyal man in Wiscon-
sin. What higher endorsement could
the party have than is here shown Men
elected by Republcans-who have
served the state in it highest Offices
have 50 well acquitted themselves that
their denomination is almost unanimous
Nor is this action the result of any wire.

the state demanded, and their represen.
tatives-the various Republican news.
napers-w!th but few exceptions, re.
echoed their wishes. 1t has been assert
ed by some Of the city journals that this
paper favored this one and that one foi
this or that office; be it known this na
per favored the nomination of the
whole ticket, first, last and all the while
and that it will work for its re-eleetior
with its coat off and sleeves roile3 up.
General Lucius Fairchild has ac-
quilted himself nobiy as al executive
officer, performing the duties devoIyiug
upon ilim fearlessly anc with greater abb
h1y than his warmest friends gave him
credit for. He took the position first as
a solder, fought bravely ana veil, lost
hi arm, came home and was given the
position of Secretary OF State. Here ne
acted well his part, and was next made
Governor That he has filed the Cub
ernatorial chair with credit to himself and
honor to the State, even his political 90
poncnis admit He will be triumphant
j. reelected next November, notwith-
standing the assertions made by copper
heads that they will cover him with theil
slimy vltuperation anu sting him with
yenomous, malicious scandal
But the ticket needs no comment from

The Amnesty Proclamation.

We do not publish the Amnesty Pro
clamation forwe do not believe it amounts
to a pinch of salt The idea that the
President is .Sorereign ruler ir this land
is too ridiculous to be entertained for an
instant. 1t Is true the power Of amnes-
ty was given to the Presideu. in 1862,
but in 1907 the act was repealed. and for
President johnson to take the course he
has Is raising impudence to the height OF
sublimity itself. On this subject the Mil
waukee IFsscoasit says:
Presis ent johnson nss at last issued
the much talked Of amnesty proclama-
ton; The only persons excepted are
the highest civil officers of the confede-
rate states, officers Of the rebel army

At the hour fixed fer the meeting Of

called to order by Horace Rublee, Chair
man of the State Central Committee.
Mr. Charles Seymour, of La Crosse,
nominated ex-Gev Saiomon as tempor-
AIRY chairman of the Convention, which
was agreed to unanimously.
On taking the chair Gov Salomon was
created with hearty applause. and briefly
stated that he was much obliged for the
honor conferred, and as he supposed the
Convention desired to o,ganize and go
about It's business as soon as possible, he
should not detain them with a speech,
but would only say that be should endeav-
OF to discharge the duties of temporary

The Prize Fight between J nes and
MeCoole has given rise to considerable
comment, in Our Exchanges, on the i'm
morality and the degrading tend ency Of
papers devote many columns, which
should bc filed with matter useful TO the
reader, to relations Of this barbarous GUS
tom. They seem to forget that tlls5v are
corrupting young minds and bringing mis-
cry on hundreds who might hecoine use
ful members of society We ,gish laws
could be passed prohibiting such publica-
tons, aud then we would hear of less
fights And we wish too that every man
who fights merely for prize might have
chance to learn more honest cccupa-
ton in our State Prison. We ike the
who says $50 long a. such brutal exhibi-
tions as these can take place in open day
without anolestation from the authoriii, S,
the American people should MT talk Of
baiiarism Of other 's,.ds The bull fights
Of Spain and The gladtorial games of pa
gan Rome were not more barbarous than
are these prize fights. SO long as these
fights continue to take place, Americans
should reserve some Of their missionary
labor and sympathy for home employ
nent The impulse which leads the
idolater to sacrifice himself or child to inl-
aginary gods is not more heathcni;;h than
that which gives rise to prize fights.

! MHwAUKEE.-We spent day in the
city of bricks. last week and we take
pleasure In stating we enjoyed it hugely.
Business matters seem to wear brighter
face than for some time past, and i'm
provement is the order Of the day. We
noticed some very fine buildings just &C.
ing up opposite the Post Office, also a
very large one just east Of the Chamber
of Commerce. We learned that some
very important business connections have
lately been formed which will add greatly
to the list of Milwaukee's heavy firms.
We stepped into the Sentinel office where
We found Chamberlin scratching away
for dear life. With him we visited the
various departments of the Sentinel office,
where We saw much that is interesting to
printer, and some things We had not
seen before. Travelling around town we
visited the Dry Goods esta biishment of
l.. A. Wheeler & Co., one of the largest
and best in the city; the Hardware store
Of John Nazro, the most extensive in
the West, certainly the best assortment
we have ever seen the Book and Sta
tionery store of West & Co., who claim
to undersell Chicago the hoIesale Hat
ard Cap establishment of T. Gunther ;
The extensive office of the Merchants
Express and the lively and spacious rooms
Of the Chamber Of Commerce. But we
are getting beyond bounds. There are
so many interesting things to be seen in
our young Wisconsin city that our space
will not allow us to tell one half we should
be pleased to write. We should like to
describe some parts of the city from
which business is excluded but we cam
not at this time Suffice if to say Mil
waukee furnishes superior advantages for
business, health and pleasure Her
buildings are large and conlmodious, her
streets clean, her drives pleasant, her
business men accommodating and bound to
excel Chicago, or nobly perish in the at
tempt. As our sympatiiiee are always
with the weaker-and Chicago is certain
ly the strongest in smells-we extend
herewith our best wishes for the future
greatness and excellence Of Milwaukee,

above the rank of Brigadier, and in che
navy above that of Captain !; persons who
have displayed cruelty toward Union pri-
soners, ambassadors Of the rebel states
abroad, and persons who may be impli-
Gated In the assassination of President
Lincoln. These exceptions will therefore
exclude Davis, Lee, Beauregard. Wade
Hampton, benjamin. Hunter, Mason.
Slidell and Semmes.
We like the principle of extending the
provisions OF the Amnesty, because it is
the part Of u just and wise statesman
ship to do this. But we think that it is
equally clear that the President has no
right TO do this under the existing laws
of the country.
Congress, by special act dated July
~, 1862, authorized the President to
proclaim amnesty to the insurgents in the
southern states. Under that law Lincoln
proclaimed two amnesties, one Dec. Sth.
1868, the other March 10th, 1864, and
johnson one on the 29th of May, 1865 !;
but IN January 1867 Congress repealed
that act without the assent Of the presi-
dent, and SO it is now the law of the land.
Congress withdrew from the President
OF the United States the autocratic DOW
er OF granting a general amnesty. John
son, AS ii to show his defiance of law. has
attempted to grant amnesty from his mere
Presidential prerogatiyes. However wise
and desirable it may be that general am
nesty should be granted, it is clear that
It should not be done illegally, and by the
President usurping the power of Con
gress. Now 1t should be borne in mind.
tbat-"A pardon is an act of grace ex-
emptlng person from penalties which
he has incurred under the law. Amnesty
Is defined as AN act OF the soceretya poto-
er the object OF which is to efface ard
cause to be forgotten crime or misde-
meanor. Amnesty is abolition of the
offense. Pardon is remission of the pen
atty. The sovereign power OF this nation
Is not the President. but the people. The
representative of the people is nos An
drew johnson, but the National Con
gress. = The copperheads insist that the
constitutional power to grant pardon~ I'M
plies the power to grant amnestie>. That
IS the case III countries where Kings and
Emperors rule. but not SO in republic.
WASHINGTON, Sept 9.-The President S
friends assert that the amnesty prociama-
ton gives all those pardoned the right to
register and vote, Notwithstanding the
prohibition prescribed by the recon.truc-
tion acts. The act passed in july, says:
No person shall be entitled to register
Or vote by reason of any Executive pardon
or amnesty forany act or anything wIiich,
without such pardon, would disquaiify
him from registration or voting.
The District Commanders have discre-
ton to keep the registration lists open
till October |, and it is said that the
President will order them reopenei,
where they have been closed, to allow
those pardoned to register
These orders must be given through
Grant, and much anxiety is felt - learn
what he will do. His frieuls coaiientiy
assert that he ssili refuse 10 issue ,acil
orders if given.

The California Election has resulted
unfavorably to the Union cause. Through
some political chicanery very unpopular
man was nominated for Governor, and as
result an independent candidate was
put in the field This had the effect to
divide the party and enable the Demo
Gratis to elect their men, We are sorry
it is so, for that fool in Washington will
say Il told you the people are with me,
and this is conclusive evidence -
But never mind California is only one
state and when the others have wheeled
into line Mr. Andrew johnson will find
a host opposing his insane measures that
will cause him TO tremble; coward that he
is.
The Presidents friends have tele-
graphed to Mcclellan to come home.
