THE CANVASS IN THIS DISTRICT.

Hon. B. T. Hopkins and Hon. James
Ross have spoken at a number Of places
in Columbia, Dane and Rock counties
during the last three weeks, and in every
case to large and enthusiastic audiences.
The papers speak in the highest terms of
their meetings, and say that the attendance
and interest are greater than ever before.
Their canvass Of this county will begin
Cd Oct. 9Th, at Waterloo, and will be
thorough and complete. Preparations
should be made in time and due notice
given SO as to insure a general attendance.
Mr.. Ross is fascinating and convincing
speaker, mingling wit, fancy and logic in
the ,most irresistible manner. Of Mr.
Hopkins there is scarcely need that we
should speak-he has but few equals as
clear, f0rcible and logical speaker, and he
handles the great topics of the day in a
manner which carries conviction to all
hearers. Let us not fall behind the other
co unties in the District in the size and
interest of our political gatherings.

THE DIX LETTER.

1t is not too much to say that no letter
ever appeared in New York politics.
which excited greater sensation through
out that state, than the recent blast of
DIX upon Seymour. It is absolutely a
scorcher, for 1t comes from a gentleman
whose character is unassailable. and who
has grown up with Seymour from his
boyhood, General Dix could say nothing
more to sum up the whole case against
Seymour, when he declares that Sew
mours election at the present time would
De regarded as one of the greatest calam-
tiles that could befal the country"
There are few men in the state Of
New York who have a higher personal
character than John A Dix. His priv
ate life IS spotless and irreproachable, and
his public life pure and honorable. He
was prominent supporter of General
jackson, OF Wright and Van Buren,. and
on every test question in the history of
his party, he acted with the radical demo
cracy His notions of public credit are
derived from the teachings of Wright
and profound study of the works of j eff
terson. Ia the city Of New York, he has
very large influence with the moneyed
men, and we do not think there is anoth-
er individual in that state engaged in the
political controversies Of the day, whose
opinion on finance is regarded with more
respect by the solid and substantial men
OF the Empire City lie justly abhors
Pendleton's sWindling scheme of cheating
The bondholders, and he still more Justly
condemns Horatio Seymour, for accepting
those false principles-because he Knows
better.-M2 WisconSla.

THE U. S. aENATORsHIP.

We see that many of our exchanges
are deVoting valuable space to the ques-
tion-Who shall be the successor. of Sena-
tor Doolittle. Several names have been
mentioned in this connection, but the
friends Of Matt II. Carpenter seem tc be
pushing his claims most vigorously at the
present time. As a consequence the is
considerable feeling manifested between
the friends and opponents of that gentle
man, and most of the papers in the state
have been led to express themselves upon
the subject. Without taking any part in
discussion which We consider to be al
together injurious in It's tendency at this
time,we viii say that We heartily Concur in
the general acknowledgment Of Mr. Car
penter's eminent abilities aud high qualif-
cations for the Office. We rejoice that he
has openly,,announced his allegiance to the
Republican party, and regret very much
have commented upon bis aspirations to
the Senatorship. Mr.. c., has rendered
services to the Republican party which
should protect him from the ignominy of
being compared to the renegade Doolittle.
We cannot imagine a more unjust and
unwise policy than that of meeting men,
who join our party, upon the very thresh-
hold with insinuations and innunendoes
Such course offers poor encouragement
for the wavering to unite with US. We
are frank to say that Mr.. G. has not been
our first choice, yet We do not propose to
cast suspicion upon his motives, and
should he be elected we shall rejoice that
Wisconsin is to be so ably represented in
the Senate
But we regret that this question Of the
Senatorship has been raised at all at the
present time. We consider that the in.
fnitely more important issues before US
should be settled before other questions
are preached. The Importance of the
present campaign cannot by any means be
oVerestimated, and we favor cutting of
all side issues and narrowing the contest
down to the great national questions to
be decided on the Sd # November next.
The effect of bringing up other issues
at this time must inevitably be to distract
attention and lose strength result
which no consideration will justi-
fy To slack ones efforts while strug-
Cling in the current above Niagara, for
the purpose of considering what road to
take after the shore, is reached, would be
suicide. For man to eat his dinner is
good and necessary thing, but to do so
while his house is on fire is the act of
insanity.
But it is asked why not discuss the
question now-W;sconsin is safe for
Grant" So we believe, but it is not
enough that we elect our ticket by the
skin of our teeth or that Grant goes to
the White House With q bare majority.

WY He LEFT TIE CLUB.
CHICAGO, Sept. 10.

CHICAGO, Sept. IL.
To the Editor of the Chicago Tribune:
In yesterdays issue of the Times Mr..
Cooney, deslrous Of notoriety, publishes a
letter which purpoTts to be his withdrawal
from the Irish Republican Grant and Col
fax Club Of this city. His reason for sever
ing his connection with the club is that he
would not associate with party which
held such opinions as were put forth in the
Post few days since. & very good rea-
son, but be fails to understand that the
leaders Of the Republican party are not
responsible for everything which appears
in the newspapers. But Mr.. Cooney goes
from the "frying-pan into the fire." and
falls flop into the arms of the "Biddies and
Paddles" Of the Chicago Times
refer Mr. Cooney to the article repub-
lished from the Times, in The Tribune of
September Is. A more infamous article
never was published against the Irish,
and that too, in leading Democratic
paper. The Times has never apologized
for that article. Let Mr.. Cooney take the
article in the Post and the one in the
Times and compare them.
But Mr. Cooney for some reason has
failed to mention his real reason for with
draWal from our club. It is this "That
he could not sell aohishey enough TO maize a
Icing, If he continued to identJy himself
ruth the Republican party" That is what
Is the matter with Mr.. Cooney, and can be
proved by several members of the club to
whom he made the above remark.
The Times says that many other Irish
men have Withdrawn from the club. This
IS not true. Cooney is the only man we
have lost. On the contrary, we have re-
ceiVea over one hundred new members
since Mr.. Cooney withdrew. We can
spare Mr. Cooney, and hope his rum mill
will receive great patronage from the
Democracy.

The GAINESVILLE Gazette sbeaking of Mr..

ed. Mr.. Hopkins has made many new

Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1868-09-30

The Republican party is indebted toDem
ocratic politicians for most inestimable
service. By their persistent charges of
corruption and extravaganza, and by their
attacks upon the financial policy of the
Government, they have called out re-
sponses from official sources which yindi-
cate in the most complete and satisfacto-
ry manner the wisdom and integrity of
the management Of our national finances
by the Republican party. We publish
in another column a letter from f. E.
Spinner, U. S. Treasurer, which is an IN
ansWerable argument On the points Of
which it treats by person whose posi-
ton, experience and high character en-
title him to universal respect. But what
we wish to call particular attention to
here, is the speech of Hon. E. Atkinson
before the Republican Convention in
Boston. Mr.. Atkinson is acknowledged
to be high authority in financial circles
and as he takes the official statements
Of Hon. D. A. Wells, Commissioner Of
Revenue, as data for ibis arguments, the
conclusions to which he arrives are to a
mathematical certainty absolutely correct.
He says: ''Bear in mind that these fig
ures are all official, carefully prepared for
me by Hon. David A. Wells, in order
that I light defend the credit of the
United States against all Corners"
Mr. 4. first shows that what was gen
orally considered to be the maximum
debt Of the country Aug. l, 1865, was
much too low an estimate, as large
amount Of unsettled claims were not
brought into the public statements. The
actual debt of the country, consisting of
the amount then adjusted, and the
amount of claims since allowed and set
tied, was So, 287, 1873 1929, as shown be-
low. The Re7enue Of the Gov ernme mt

In answer to the question, "what has
been done with this money" he says:

sailors, the moment the rebels laid down their
