Speaker Thomson leads off ereditablv as a
presiding officer, and, judging from what we
have seen of him TINS far. he viii make a
Speaker cas- good &c the BEST" when he has
had few months experience. Everything
works smoothly now among al the officials
of both branches.
There are more new members lere this
year than usual--there being only eighteen
out of the one hundred members of the AS
sembly who were here last year. Mr.. Rob-
bus, of Grant County, is the senior member,
having been in the Assembly seven years.
and Judge Barron. of Polk County. is next
in rank, having been member fol four con-
secutive years.
At the commencement Of each term OF the
Legislature it is predicted. by the knowing
ones. that the session will be much shorter
than preceding sessions. am inclined to
believe that such predictions will prove true
this year, simply because members receive
the same pay for a short session as long
one-nothing more. 1t is not the tact that
heretofore az members hayo been in favor Of
long sessions-but in my opinion it is true
that majority OF them considered them
selves employed al good wages when they
received two dollars and half day, and
were in no particular hurry TO throw up
their situations This session business will
be rushed through and quite as much accom-
plished in sixty days as were before in ninety
The adoption ,f the Constitutional amend
ment was a step in the right direction.
There will be several very important
measures up for consideration this winter,
and the usual number Of lobby members viii
be in attendance in good time. Among the
more important bills expected to be brought
to light soon, is one authorizing the CONSOLE
dation of the St. Paul and Milwaukee Rail-
road Company with the Chicago and n ORTIZ
western. The Railroad men deny now that
they wish any such authority but little con-
fidence is placed in their prOtestations of
innocence, Another measure which will
cause great deal OF contention will be the
proposition TO incorporate The Beef Slough
Boom COMPARATIVELY will be opposed to
tn bitter end by the Eau Claire Lumber
interests. The supporters of the bill failed
TO carry it through last year. but are conf.
dent of success at this session.
The suggestions of the Journal 10 the
Legislature excite n good deal OF comment
and create no little amusement among mein-
bers. Exceptions are taken. however, to
your proposition 10 make suicide a capitol
crimc, as il is not considered constitutional.

SAD.-We are panied TO announce that it is
probable that our fellow townsman, Mr.. 2. V
Wise. has become hopelessly insane 1t is
we'll known that for several years past he has
exhibited symptoms OF this dreadful malAdy
but ii was hoped that quiet and freedom from
the cares of official station would restore the
equilibrium Of his disordered mind. We iear
the hope IS vain. The disease has recently
Jroken out. with aggravated symptoms. which
move the sympathy at all who witness them.
He is full of the widest fantasies, talks ineo-
herenly and drools continually. Like all IN
sane persons, he imagines that lac is sur
rounded by enemies. against whom he hulls
his vordy indignation. He thinks, for in
stance, that the politicians of this county and
st. Croix ale banded together for Tie express
purpose Of running him. and is victim TO the
ridiculous hallucination that he is the cham
pion Of the peoples interests His
-"unbalanced mind
Sees 'eliques' IN clouds, and hears them in
the wind"
Mr.. Wise has been a active and valuable
citizen here. and we hope he may vet recover
from that alteration of mind which now
clouds his life. Since last fall. he has been
under the care of Dr. J'W. Bcardsley, who
may succeed in diverting his mind into its
old channels. and effect permanent cure.

The New County Movement.

Ever since the two counties of Pierce and
ST. Croix were formed, a portion Of the people
in each have been dcsroas Of rc-uniting
them or the greater portion of them. and
putting the County Seat OF ;he new County
at River Falls. River Fails is fayorably sit
uated TO be the central point OF one OF the
best, aud we believe the very best
county in the State, and this desire seems to
us strictly in accordance with the logic of
events.
We have always regarded such change
in county lines very desirable. but have hith-
elto considered 1t impracicaLle. Whether
il can now be made. we do not know, but the
matter is attracting more attention than ever
before,
en- Saturday last several gentlemen from
River Falls came here to learn the feeling OF
this city with regard to the movement A
brief consultation called out various opinions,
and a mcctir of the citizens here was held
on Wednesday evening last, at which J. w.
Beardsey r. d. Pierce, G. L Cox, A. Morse,
and H. i. Anes were APPOINTED a committee
to ascertain the feeling OF the people of this
County aud also what territory it was pro-
posed 10 embrace in the new county and re-
port 10 meeting 10 be- held here Saturday
next, Feb. LIST. We think the feeling of this
city j. favorable 10 the movement, but there
is nothing ve~y decided, vigorous or aggress-
i've about it, snj We hardly exl ect TO see any
result but talk.
We believe that such change would be
greatly beneficial aud if the movement is
carried on and the question Submitted 10 the
people, we shall give our reasons for such
belief.
