MONEY CANNOT ALWAYS VIM
There can be no better evidence OF
the utter weakness of the cause OF
supporters of the Barber Wilkinson
programme than the fact that with
in the last two weeks some of them
have made offers to purchase dele
gates in their favor.
We have reliable information that
Mr.. ID. Il. Parker has undertaken to
contract with at least one man to get
the delegates of his town For PAY.
We regret that he should put so low
an estimate upon his Republican fell
low citizens as to suppose that they
can be bought up like cattle for the
market. This is certainly new
way of purifying Grant county poll
tics" and we enter our earnest pro-
test against it.-BoScobel Journal.

wThe Paris declaration of 1856,
which was agreed upon by the plen-
ipotentiaries of England, France
Prussia, Austria, Russia, Sardinia
and Turkey, contained these import.
ant points:
!. Privateering is, and remains, abolished
2. The neutral flag covers enemy's goods
with the exception of contraband Of war.
3. Neutral goods, with the exception oil
contraband of war, are not liable to capture
under enemy's flag.
a. Blockades, in order to be binding, mus,
be effective that is to say, maintained by a
force sufficient reallyto prevent access to the
coast of the enemy.
If this declaration" be observed
there will be no privateering in the
war between France and Prussia
and this will relieve the contest OF
much of the hardship usually at.
tending wars among nations which
are more or less engaged in COM
MERGE. That the spirit of the "de-
claration"" will be observed is indi-
Gated by the following dispatch sent
to the Prussian Minister in Wash
ington:
"BERLIN, July 10, 1870.
To Baron Gerolt, Washington:
For ysur guidance, have to say tn at pri-
vate property on the high seas will be exemnt
from seizure by His Majesty's ships, without
regard to reciprocity.
(Signed) BISMARCK
The French Minister has informed
the Secretary of State that France
will respect the treaty of Paris.

EF The present war will probably
make the debt of France greater
than that Of any nation in the world.
The debt of England, which is the
greatest at present, is even now but
little in excess of that of France.
and the extraordinary credit of 500,
600, 900 francs voted by the Corps
Legislatif makes the two debts al
most equal. But the French Minis
try acknowledges that this sum will
be entirely inadequate for such
war, and SO we can expect that new
sums may be voted at any moment.
The Chambers of Prussia have also
voted credit of 100000 900 thalers,
but the debt Of that country is so
small that even large increase will
not pat. the Prussian finances in q
precarious condition.

PARKER ON THE RAMPAGE.-D. II.
Parker, styled by the Witness that
"Old Republican war-horse of Fenni-
more, ," in his eagerness to serve his
lord and master. Wilkinson, has taken
up the quill Cor some one for him)
and consumes near q column of the
last weeks II itueSs in an attempt to
lecture the Junior of the Herald for
his support of George G. Hazelton
for Congress. If we remember, this
same cold republican war-horse" pre-
sided over the convention that re-
nominated Mr.. Hazelton for the
State Senate only year since he
came down to the convention Il
lIazelton delegate, expressly elected
to support him, and at that time was
exceedingly enthusiastic and earnest
for the Senator's success. Now Par
kcr goes back on Hazelton and is
fighting mad at everybody who
don't think and act as he does on the
matter of congressional succession.
Why this sudden change? Mr..
HaZelton's course in the Senate has
been unexceptionally correct and the
county has been second time hon.
orod in the choice of him as her rep
resentative. We have anxiously in
| CURED for the cause of Mr.. Parker's
sudden flop, and, if not mistaken, the
cue to his course is directly pointed
to in an item which lately appeared
in the Boscobel Journal, his home
organ. Read:
"PAnRER AFTER AN 0FFIcE.-It is under
stood that ID. T. Parker, of Fennimore, is an
| active worker for Mr.. Wilkinson for Congress,
with the promise of the Assessorship for this
District, in case of the latter's success. Mr.
Parker is probably as well (and no better)
qualified for the position as many manned SOL
diers in Grant County, and while Mr.. Parker
Is wealthy and does not need the emoluments
OF the office, would Il not be much better 10
appoint some one of the many crippled SOL
diers of the county TO the position? The
work tarmed out TO Mr.. Parker is TO divide
! Grant County by a PRETENDED support of
Barber, and thereby play into the hands Of
! Wilkinson. INTEREST creates enthusiasm in
some men,"

WHAT REPUBLICAN ADNINlsaRA-
TON HAS DONE Senator Morton
recently made an elaborate speech
at Terro Haute, upon the prospects
of the approaching political cam
paign. He took a cheerful view of
toe Republican situation, and pre-
dicted that the people would indorse
Congress. lie cited the fact that
tho internal revenue receipts have
increased 1872, 100000, and customs
S19,O00,000 since General Grants
Inauguration, over the previous six
teen months. Our expenses have

reduced $146, 100000, and the taxes
reduced $50, 10000 All these thinos
the Senator thinks, will commend
the Republican party to the people
and enable it to hold its gronnd.

Cong - The Richland
County Republican, the only repub-
lican paper in that county in it's last
issue has the following upon congress
sional matters
"Since the opening of the campaign
we have carefully watched every de-
velopment, and find nothing to
change the convictions first express.
ed. Green county, or, rather, one
wing of the Republican party of that
county, has developed candidate in
the person of Hon. B. Dunwiddie,
whom we have every reason to think
capable, worthy gentleman. But
this does not change or relieve the
complexion Of the contest. The
nominee will and must come from
the valley of the Wisconsin River.
and he must be man who has made
q record In favor of the Improve
ment. Nothing short of this will
satisfy the demand of the people, and
the Convention dare not ignore it.
Although desperate smoke has
been raised by the Platteville paper.
to satlate the love of the Platteville
aristocrats for smudge IN which to
bask, that smoke has not been smell
cd a far off, and has had still less eff
feet in converting intelligent, reason
able men to the notion that "once in
power, best always in power.n-
There are times when changes force
themselves upon the people, and the
Republican party wisely think it
better to make one among themselves
than have it made by the opposition.
Senator Hazelton, by his talent
and energy, has built for himself a
proud name among the representa-
tive men of this State; his public
career has commended him to read
ing and thinking men as man who
fully comprehends the best interests
OF the people, and who will not be
afraid to serve them. The people
who know him honor him, and wish
to have him in their public service,
though politicians may hope for the
success of others for their own ag-
grandizement. But his success IN
this contest is as certain as right is to
prevail, and that Grant county will
stand nobly by him we have no
doubt"
