FROM time immemorial an immense amount
of admiration has been lavished upon the
woman whose heart is bound up in home, and
who has no interests or duties beyond it. OF
course there is truth in this prevailing opinion
"a woman's first duty is the fulflment of her
domestic relations. The administration of the
household depends upon her, and with it the
comfort of its inmates; the moral status of the
little community is created by her influence
almost entirely, and the intellectual to great
degree. This being undeniable, whatever
makes her competent for these labors ought
to be assured to her, and she should be wisely
assisted and supported under this constant
strain of anxiety.

reported the following which were adop-
ted with great enthusiasm
The Union Republican party Of the 5th
Congressional District of Wisconsin, stand
ing ever by the principles of the party as
defined in the National platform, do
heso}Ue, That the Constitution has lod-
ged the political power OF the nation in
the Congress Of the United States. That
states once out OF their proper practical
relations to the Union can be restored
only by Legislative authority that any
attempt of anether department. to deter
mine the political relations of the States
to the the government or to re-establish
relations once suspended is a usurpation
OF the perogatives Of the legislative depart
ment dangerous to the liberties OF the
people.
Res03ged, That in calling on the boys
in blue to fall in under Wade Hamp-
ton and Forrest, the democratic party
insults alike our surviving soldiers, and,
our gallant dead and attempts to cast
dishonor and shame upon the windows
and orphans who gave their earthly all
that the country might he saTed
Hes1Egcd, That the interests of the peo-
pie North and our Of Government demand
a ship canal connecting the great lakes
with the great rivers Of our country, an!
as the completed surveys shows that the
route by the Fox and Wisconsin rlversis by
far the cheapest aud the best, we pledge
our candidate to every honorable effort to
secure its speedy completion.
ReSo'red, That the last four years we
have found in EAi!ctus Sawyer member
of Congress who could and did fully Sc
cure the interests Of their district who
was always true to Che great principles of
our party and to whom no person need

ANOTHER WAR.

DO the people of the North desire
another war? Do they want a return Of
that season Of blood when every house
hold mourned for loved ones slain? We
believe they do not, and still does it not
seem as though large class of people,
who style themselves Democrats, long
for such a consummation IF not it is
difficult to understand the plainest kind
Of English. The rebels in the South are
ripe for a second rebellion this they
openly proclaim through all their news
papers, and in proof Of our assertion we
publish on the inside of this paper ex-
tracts from Southern Journals showing
most conclusively that they intend tc
fight again if the elections DO not result
iavorably to their cause. One would
suppose that they had been punished
sufficiently for their crimes to last them
life time, yet such is not the case;
''rule or ruin Is still their cry, and It is
barely possible that they will cry over
their ruin before many years have rolled
along. But what is it that gives the
South such bold front; surely they do
not imagine that they are strong enough,
unaided,'' to overcome the North? that
would be folly The simple truth is
ttey expect heID from Northern Demo-
Gratis, and this is what seems so passing
strange. We can understand why south
erners ike to fight; they have been
brought up to it and know but little else,
yet for northern men to desire a renewal
of TIE rebellion is an indication Of moral
insanity very difficult to comprehend.
But let the heather rage It's all in vain!
The patriotic people Of this nation are
bound that it shall be a free, undivided
country; and they viii not have any war
either A man who during the war,
cried War; War until we can have an
honorable end of our difficu lties, is now
crying Peace! Peace And shouting
amen the people are preparing to
elevate him to the highest position in all
the land ''Let us have peace.

doubtedly succeed for he has an ifucnce
that no other man we could send could
have, especially one belonging to the op
posite party. 1t is hardly necessary for
us to enunerate the advantages to the
farmers of our county arising from good
harbor, for they all know that before it
was constructed they used to take their
wheat to the line of the Northwestern
railroad, and by so doing they realized
ten cents per bushel more than if they
sold it here. How is it now? Why, the
farmers come from the railroad here! So
1t is plain, that for every bushel Of wheat
raised in this county the farmers receive
from ten to fifteen cents more than they
did before Mr.. Sawyer secured us money
to build our Harbor. In 1867 we shipped
1874, 439 bushels OF grain-we will ship
four times as much this year-and it is
plain that the amount saved to the coun-
ty by the harbor this season, on wheat
alone, will not fall much short of $40, 900,
and wheat is but one Of hundred items
which pass through our harbor each
season. Seeing these advantages the
hardy settler comes in, the county rapid
ly increases in population, lands improve
in value and soon a railroad will be indis-
pensable-all the result Of the harbor,
and the harbor is the result Of sending
the Hon. PHILETUs SAWYER to Con
gress.
5. That Mr.. Sawyer has done other
good things beside what we have men
toned above, of which we will speak in a
futI1re article
