The Lake Shore railroad Meeting.
The meeting held at the Court Houss
last Saturday night, was largely attenden,
showing that our citizens are now really
awake to their interest, in reference tc
railroads, and VIC hope that this movement
Of onr people will not lag until something
definite and certain is effected towards Civ
US communication with the outside wciid
SOMEWHERE.
After several speeches had been made,
(son-a cf which, ought net 10 have been
uads) motion vas made and carried that
tie CHAIR appoint thrcs men to go owe. the
country from he.a to Shsboygan, Port
Washington and Milwaukee. and inter
mediate Towns, and to Appleton aud other
places, and learn what united action can
be had to ensure a Lake Shore Road =
The chair appointed, p Il. Hoes, Chas
Esslinger and S. A. Wood as such cons
mlttee.
And also appointed committee of three
to raise money to pay the expenses of the
first committee, and then the meeting ad
journed. 4 more full account of the meet
ing has been kindly furnished US by the
Secretary, which we publish in another
QUINN.
We hope that these committees will pro-
c3ed immediately to business, and in the
shortest possible time be able to report
some cGectue action. Mapitowoc cannot
afford to wait for ,;nytaiag or anybody, at
this time. The enemy are attempting to
faux u.s. and we had better prepare for
action.
We were sorry to sec that an unaccount-
able delusiOn take possession of the minds
of one or two OF the speakers, at the meet
ing who seemed to labor under the impres
sion that the meeting was called as al op>
po-itiOn movement to a acestern Road.
Such :gds not the case.
We should not quarrel about which of
these two Roads will help Us most. We
want them both, and SO long as Judge
Reed is the only man, at present, to Nnom
We can locks give us a western road, let Us
aid him in bis road; all the aid that he will
ask. This We have DONE a year or two ago
he asked 800, 900, and We gave it to him.
La,tWednesdsy nighthe asked $1,000, and it
was unanimously promised to him, and had
he asked for five times that amount be
would have been assured Of il. What
more can he esk Of us? We will believe
that through his efforts we shall eventually
haye q western Road, and We viii vote hin,
money and bonds But when the citizens
of Manltowoc wish to assemble for the
purpose OF discussing ANY OTHER Railroad
project; they will not consent to be muzzle7,
or allow he object of their meetings to be
defeated in any way.

of DR.. Brown and is doing we'll.

THE sHow.-It will be seen by an

TIE SHow.-It will be seen by an
advertisement in another column, that big
show will exhibit in this place on Friday, July
9th. Those who have been readers Of the STAN
DARD during the past ten years. know that we
have always discouraged what are termed lone
horse shows, and especially the concerns known
as "nlgger shows" or silly performances by
white men painted black. Many circuses are
but little better. The growing intelligence Of
this community has rendered such performances
in this place rather Improbable of late years.
Hence, to make 1t pay, the character of the
circus has been somewhat elevated, and FREE
quentlya menagerie is connected with 1t.
Now an exhibition Of animals Is Legitimate
and proper. No person would be willing to
admit that he was so ignorant as never TO have
seen an elephant or a lion. The works of the
Creator are always q proper study for man.
Therefore VIC have never opposed animal shows,
but rather encouraged them.
The agent of the show that is coming here on
the 9th, assures US that 1t will be oil that il is
represented to be. He says there will be no
NA'ANANe w u ohS"i ohS p0tb VI ~ SSAAA =
here, and the balance going some other place,
as is sometimes done; but he says all that is
advertised will be here.
It cannot be denied that show always brings
In the very lowest, most ignorant, most de-
graded class of any community. This often
keeps away decent persons from shows which
they would otherwise attend. But there Is
seldom any trouble at shows in our town, as our
county and mum cipal authorities cooperate
with tho managers Of shows, to preserve order
Wewould make one suggestion to che clowns
In this show. Your jokes are generally stale
worn out. But avoid party, or copperhead slang
Let there be no silly talk about Gen. Butler and
stolen spoons, and such rebel slang, as was used
In the last show which exhibited at this place
Remember that there will be decent people, ant
loyal people, and Republicans at your show.
Upon the whole, If what the agent says, ant
If what the press says of this show be true, i
will be above the average, and no doubt will be
well patronized. Come and see it. There will
be big crowd out on that day. o
