~ The recent decision of the Supreme
Court 10 the Green Lake county seat case
is understood to establish the ,act that
naturalization papers cannot lawfully be
made by deputies of the clerk of cir
cult court. This paves the way for con-
tested elections adj li6itum. 1t looks to us
like bubble. In the particular case re-
ferrcd to, it simply defeats the will of the
people, leaving the county-seat at very
mild hamlet instead of the stirring village
of Princeton, where majority of voters
said it should go. =

Hsg= The yield ofwheatin this county
is found to be quiet up TO the average, and
in some localities, it is better in quality and
quantity than for many seasons previous.
The yield in The county will probably ave-
rage IL or IA bushels per acre. We have
heard Of some fields yielding 25 bushels.
Oats appear to be rather light. They are
not well filed, and do not yield up to the
average. Corn is an extra crop. The sea-
son has been very favorable, and as it is
nearly ripe now, and cannot be hurt much
by the frost, we may safely say it is more
than All average crop.

~ The Milwaukee Neaos says that nine
new Democratic papers have been started
in this State since the nomination of Sey-
mour and Blair, and says that notone new
Republican paper has been started during
the time. Well, what of it! IL S only
one of the old Democratic tricks to flood
the country with sensation documents on
the eve of an important election. The
fact is, Democrats, as a class, are not a
reading class. The strength of the party
can't read, consequently they do not sup.
port their papers, and in order to present
their side of the case, the Democratic pol
iticians invariably start campaign papers.
which as invariably collapse after election.
