IT appears that the city council of
Beaver Dam requires either Thirty tickets or
$40 in money for license to give concert in
thst city. But the Peak Family troupe which
recently gave a concert there, refused to give
the tickets and gave the money. This, to our
mind, was an actual ease of paying the alder
men to keep away from the entertainment, and
it must have come to the knowledge of the
troupe that the members of the council would
not give character to even a common concert,
which is rather tough on our Beaver Dam
friends, and we would advise a new election to
be held forthwith, with such g result as to
obvia:e the necessity Of concert troupes re-
plenishing the city treasury in such a way.
The Citizen wakes joyful over the replenishing
of the city treasury, but should it not hang its
head in shame when thinking that none is so
low as to do the aldermen reverence? Tell us
all about it, Mr.. Citizen.

But the Democrats say no. Let all the
rebel States vote or let none of them vote :.
and as all cannot vote without recognizing
The validity of the equal suffrage constitu-
lions, let none cote. They ignore the fact of
'iie rebellion and the disabilities, State and
personal, which flow from it-on the princi-
PIE ''iat because a man can't legally steal
'neieiore' ne can't actually steal, and so lar
ceny oelng impossible no thief should be
puhished. They ignore the terms of the
treaty OF peace between the bellioerent now
ers, all that Congress has done ON the ore
hand. and all that the people OF the States
have done upon the other, towards re-estab-
fishing the relations of the States and tho
government. The war to them was a mere
unpleasantness and the negotiations have all
been had between Congress and few men
with carpet-bags. Seymour and the cool
headed Senators say let all reconstruction 90
for nothing, and keep all the States out OF
the Union johnson, Blair and the rebel
mob say down with the carpet-baggers, and
let the rebels alone elect members of Con-
gress and electors of President.
Grant and all the Republicans say, let all
the states as soon as they fairly comply with
the conditions upon which the war was ter
minated be restored to all taeir rights as
states and as people. Upon this question we
go to the people. The issue is, restoration,
peace and harmony under the constitution
and equal laws, or violence, separation, the
reign of the mob, and the domination of a
rebel arstocrscy.

Napoleon recently made great discovery

was discovered by complaint from the cook
that the drain into which the kitchen slops
were poured was out of order.
