waukee Ne,os concerning Gen Wash.
burn, says:
"But the NeloS and its party we'll
knows that if Gen. G. G. Washburn
is nominated, all hope of electing a
Democratic Governor must DO aband-
oned. They we'll understand that
Gen. Washburn is an able man, that
his reputation is good-that ho is
popular-that his old Congressional
District would send him out with
eight or ten thousand majority in
short, that any combination they
might make, or dozen combinations
com bined, could not defeat Gen.
Washburn if he were nominated.
That's why the Milwaukee Neas
souirms so when it hears the name
OF Washburn. He is not the Ne,US'
first choice, by half dozen shots.
We shall not be surprised TO see Gen.
Washburn put in nomination. If he
is, the Republicans hereaway can
give him a hearty support"
The Beaver Dam Citizen comes
out strongly in favor of the nomina-
tion Of Hon. VIM. Smith as the Re-
publican candidate for Governor.
The follwing paragraph from its
editorial upon the subject gives its
drift, and is a just tribute to Mr..
Smiths worth and ability.
Ale has been a faithful, jealous
and indeiatigable worker in the Re
publican party ever since its organi-
cation, as fearlessly when it was in
its minority as when in the majority,
in town or county, state or nation.
There is no man who has more
claims to be honored by the position.
An honor to the party and the COM
munity in which he lives, and with "a
political character beyond reproach,
be is peculiarly fitted to honor the
office and retain it in the high stand
ard to which it has been held for the
past few years"
The Fond du Lac Commonwealth
says:
THE Commonwealth has not yet en-
tered upon the field with its candi-
date, and is not disposed to for some
weeks, yet it is free to say that the
man who made an efficient State
Senator, an honest, faithful State
Treasurer, and first class Speaker
Of the Assembly, could be trusted as
Governor Of Wisconsin. No man
questions the honesty of VIM. E..
Smith"

Death Of Vallandigham.

CINCINNATI, June 16.--A special to
the Gazette, from Lebanon, says !:
"Clement l.. Vallandigham, one of
the counsels for the defense of Thorn
as McGeghan, accidently shot him
self tonight at nine O'Clock at the
Lebanon House.
1t appears that no one was present
with Vallandigham when the accident
occurred but Lieutenant Governor
McBurney, who has been associated
with him in the defense Of McGeghan.
McBurney had expressed some doubts
as to the theory that Meyers had
shot himself, and Vallindigham pick
cd up a pistol from the table, saying
he would show him in halfa second.
Two pistols were on the table, one
unloaded, and he by mistake, picked
up the loaded one. He put it in his
pocket and withdrew it, keeping the
muZzle noxt to his body. Just as it
was leaving his pocket 1t was dis
charged the ball entering, it is said,
near the same place Myers was shot.
He at once calculated, "Ob murder p
and said he had taken the wrong
pistol.
CINCINNATI, June 17.-Mr Vallan-
dignam died eight minutes before
ten this morning. He went down
very rapidly after three o'clock, hav-
ing no pulse scarcely after that hour.
DR.. Dawson, Of Cincinnati, arrived
at three, but was too late to do any
good for the dying man.

Carpenters Speech.

We devote considerable space in
this issue TO the speech Of Senator
Carpenter on the resolution TO re-
lease Messrs. White and Ramsdell,
correspondents Of the New York
Tribune, who were under arrest at
Washington for refusing to divulge
how they obtained copy of the
Treaty for publication in the. Tribune.
Mr. Carpenter waa a member OF the
committee ofinvestigation as 10 the
Stolen treaty, and it was necessary
and proper that he should stand
boldly by the action of the Senate in
imprisoning the recnssant witnesses
and directing an investigation. The
publication of the Treaty, although
made directly against the rules Of
the Senate, has worked no serious
injury in any quarter nevertheless
this is no reason why an investiga-
ton, and punishment Of the purloin-
ers Of the treaty, was not necessary
in support Of the accustomed rules of
the Senate. 1t was an unfortunate
position for Mr.. Carpenter, when al
most the entire press and public SEN
timeut of the country was against
him but that he has boldly and ably
defended the action and dignity Of
the Senate, and resisted the violent
assaults Of the Tribune, no one who
will read his speech can deny.

infer that powder makers can not be
far from the head of the dirtiest class

every thing about him indicates that
he is by no means the sort Of person

he ever wears anything more COM
prehensive than the robe that now
adorns him. Yet, it must be stated
to their credit that these men are by
far cleaner set OF artifcers than
those laboring in any similar voca-
ton. The working dress of the
men is removed every evening, af-
ter which they wash themselves
from scalp to sole as thoroughly

SENATOR HOWE. The Milwaukee
NelOS, in a recent .article, declared
that nearly every Republican office
holder uses his office for tho purpose
Of speculation, and in this connection
declared that "Wisconsin's favorite
Senator, the Hon. Timothy o. Howe,
owned nothing but a homestead
when he was elected to the Senate,
and now he is a capitalist, and loans
money, and can give his check for
thousands" This statement the
Madison Journal pronounces a mali
cious SANDER and adds: Judge
Howe was admitted to the bar thirty
two years ago, and was q member of
the Maine Legislature in 1915. The
latter part of that year he came to
Wisconsin. He soon took leading
position and secured lucrative
practice. During the fifteen years
preceding his election to the Senate,
he earned and saved some money,
more than homestead and was
considered in fair circumstances for
q lawer The insinuation that he is
capitalist who made his money
dishonesty, is utterly false. 1t is
not difficult to trace this paragraph
to its source. 1t is we'll known that
Judge Howe, in the famous Barstow
trial, devoted a few moments of his
speech to certain editor and sup
porter Of Barstow, and these para
graphs how how the speech has
ranked fifteen years.
The Green Bay .AdUocate replies to
the NelrS' attack on Judge Howe, as
follows:
Though we are not political
supporter of Judge Howe, it is per-
haps appropriate for us, as one of his
neighbors, to say that here, where
his affairs are better known than
elsewhere, the above will be univer-
sally regarded as doing him wrong.
His service here as leading MEM
Der of the bar for fifteen or twenty
years, brought far short of what, in
these times, could be called for
tune but he earned some parcels of
real estate and property here and
there, which, on his election to the
Senate, we understand he converted
INTO money. This is, doubtless, with
what it may have subsequently, earn
eel OF itself, the extent of Senator
howe's private fortune-which, we
are sorry to say, is smaller than it
should be-"

Eg Mrs Il. ID. Fair has been sem
fenced by Judge Divenevile, of San
Francisco to be hung on the 28th of
July. Her trial was an impartial one,
and developed beyond doubt that
she had not only murdered rittenden
but had been guilty of other crimes
sufficient to merit for her death pun
ishment. This is one ofthe very few
cases which have occurred, of late
years, wherein a woman has been
condemned to suffer the extreme
penalty of the law. Custom had al
most established the rule that no
matter what a woman's offence night
be, she was fit subject for the c,em-
ency of jurors; and, through thought
less gallantry, juries paid respectful
homage to customs mandate. But
commonsense has reasserted its SWAY.
and to their credit be it said that a
California jury has shown the world
that criminals, no matter what their
sex, will be compelled to expiate their
sins against humanity.
