What is the Reason.

1t Is question of vital importance TO
know the reason for the reduced Repu bli-
can majorities in the states which have
lately voted, for unwilling as wemay be to
acknowledge it, we are compelled to admit
that there has been sligh. falling off. In
Vermont the Republican ticket is elected
by nearly as large majority as last year,
bat the Democrats elect Senator the
result Of split in our party, and trade
between the boilers and the Democrats.
In Maine the majority on Governor is
about IA, 1000; a very respectable majority
but not as large as we have had. The
reason for this falling off is the advocacy
of a-more stringent liquor law, and the lit
tie interest felt by the Republicans in the
election. The Bangor Wig says that
shardly hundred Republicans in the
State voted the Democratic ticket; they
simply refrained from voting at ALL" CAL
ifornia has gone democratic, and for rea-
sons well known TO every body. The Re-
publican party nominated men who were
to obnoxious to the people, that it caused
split in their party, and the running of
another ticket besides, the Republican
policy of placing John Chinaman OH lev
ell with a white man or even negro could
not be endorsed by a great many otherwise
good Republicans in that state. Conse-
qucntly we see that the result Of the re-
duction of our majorities is due to the
wringing in of side issues, local mat ters
and the carelessness with which candidates
for office have been selected The Repub-
lican majorites in the eastern states have
been too large to compel the party to nom
mate the best men. They were confident
of electing who ever they nominated, and
have without doubt been little careless
in that particular. Our defeat in Califor-
MIA IS principally due to this fact, but we
are happy to say that this cannot be the
case in our own state The nominees are
all tried men. They were picked men two
years ago, and have given such universal
satisfaction, and the people have such un-
bounded confidence in their integrity and
ability, that they have with only one cx
ception, rc-nomnated them for a second
term A more harmonious convention
never assembled, and state ticket was
never nominated more unanimously than
the one now submitted to the people by
the republican party of Wisconsin.

That New School House.

We hardly know what more can be said
on this important subject. We think it
has been plainly demonstrated that our old
school houses are unfit for use,--that we
need new ones, that we can have them if
we only say so, that we cannot afford to
longer delay the matter, and that we can
afford this cery gear to put up all the ne
cessary buildings; but to keep the matter
before the people we will add a few more
suggestions. The school houses in their
present, and even past condition, are un-
comfortable and unhealthy, worse probably
than any house in town, and what parent
is willing for his child to spend six hours
of each day in miserable old shell of a
building hardly fit for stable. 1t is use
less to attempt to repair the buildings, for
they are not more than half large enough.
There is at the least calculation Coo chill.
dren in the district, and only room in the
school houses for 420, according to the
clerks report. Dodgevile being the coun-
ty seat ought TO take the lead of other vii
lagos in the county, but instead Of that we
are far behind them. Mineral Point has
never been noted for her educational Ecil
tiles, nevertheless they have just erected
splendid school building for the lower
ward, at cost of not less than $4,000.
Linden, Avoca. Arena, and all the sur
rounding villages are in proportion to their
ability ahead Of DodEcvile in this particu-
lar. Places in adjoining counties which
are only equal to us in other respects, far
excel US in this. Platteville, Lancaster,
Boscobel, Mazo Mamie, Shullsburg, Dar-
lington, all lead us in educational interest,
and school property. We are as well able
to build as any of these places.
We must have new school house,-let
US say are wHl have one. We want one
that will rank with the best in the state
we have waited long enough, and now
ought to have good one We need first
rate one, and ought not to be satisfied with
any thing short, it would be discreditable
to our citizens and to our place. We have
not the slightest doubt but three-fourths
of the tax payers in the district think just
as we do about this matter, and the only
reasor we are not we'll supplied with com
modious and elegant school houses, is tha
they have not taken interest enough in The
matter to attend the school meetings, and
press the claims of the friends of education
Let this reason no longer exist, but come
up and do your duty.
The school district meeting is called fo1
I o'clock on Monday evening next, at th'
Town Hall. We hope to see large atten
dance. Don't forget the time.

last nominated the following county ticket:
For County School Superintendent, VIM.
H. Peck, of Mineral Point; Member Of As
scmbly northern district, Goodwin Laury,
of Wyoming; southern district, Capt.
Thomas Priestly, of Mineral Point; Su-
pervisor, middle district, David Mcfarland,
of Highland. They are all democrats, and
will receive the votes of that party. Mr..
reck is editor of the Mineral Point Demo
crat. Mr. Laury is farmer of Wyoming,
known to be strong party man. Capt.
Priestly is the Ex-Bread.and- Butter Depu-
ty-Assessor for this county. Mr.. McFar-
land was their candidate for Sheriff last
year. They did not nominate candidate
for Supervisor in the northern district.
therefore the republicans viii probably not
nominate an opponent to Mr.. Mcfarland
in the middle district The convention
consisted of thirteen persons-a bakers
dozen. We were not informed whether
there was one from each town and for each
ward of Mineral Point, making the l3. OF
whether there was eleven from Dodgevills
and one each from Mineral Point and High
