A HORRIBLE story comes to us
from Kentucky. Two brothers,
Jasper and Clay Watkins, residing
at huntsville, have been at emnity
for nearly two years, and time, in
stead of softning their passions,
seems only to have intensified it.
Ten days ago the brothers met, and
after some heated words Jasper shot
Clay, i1ltlicting wound which con-
fined him to his bed. A few days
atterward Jasper, accompanied by
his young wife, bride of a week,
went to his mothers house, where
Clay was lying, and entered into a
conversation with the wounded man,
his wife meantime stealthily drawing
a revolver and advancing to the
bedside. When she was within two
feet of the bed she suddenly pre-
sented the revolver and sent a bull
let through Clay's heart, killing him
instantly. The shocking deed has
no parallel in the history Of crime.
The girl is but Il years of age, had
40 personal cause Of ill-will toward
her ticti.a,-erfcf-ttrat she could be
induced to espouse her husbands
cause to such an extreme almost
transcends belief. The guilty cou-
pie are now in Jail, and we must
now await the trial before learning
her motives and the origin of the
quarrel which ended so tragically.

It seems that the project of build
ing a railroad from Oshkosh through
Portage City, Dodgeville, Mineral
Point, etc, to Dubuque is not aband-
oned; but that the corporation
known as the Wisconsin Midland
Railway Co. is still a thing of life,
and the officers still are hopeful of
success in constructing the road
proposed. The following is the
Presidents report of doings, recent
ly published and copied by request:
The Wisconsin Midland Railway has
been corporation for five months, and
during that time has effected as much as
any similar company in the same time
The officers of this company have ex>
pended great deal Of time and money,
mostly without any remuneration. We
have received from sale of stock, and
from donations the sum OF 1928. The
route has been surveyed to within e; ght
miles of Portage City, and "a will be
seen from the Secretary's report, we have
expended about $500, leaving small
debt against the company. We earnest
y invite donations, and will sell pre-
ferred stock, with a view Of completing
the survey to the city of Dubuque. Since
the first cf February last | have been
twics to the city of New York.
Our project was received with great
favor, ami we have assurances from the
hallway Exchange, and from other re-
spectacle parties that as soon as we
obtaid local aid-weathy parties stand
ready to construct the road and take pay
in town, county or city bonds, to be de,
llyereJ after the iron is on the road.
Strong parties at the east are now con-
templating taking preferred stock in this
company. We have an agent IN Eng
land who has been very successful In
negotiating bonds for western roads, who
informed me that this was the best pro
leet he hsd ever had the agency for, and
that be bad no doubt he could negotiate
our bonds in the London market We
have been promised aid from most of the
towns along the line of the route, and
our project is received with great favor
from reasonable aid from the cities anu
towns, and from the sale of stock, we
shall get sufficient means to grade and
tie the road, The sale Of our bonds
will give us the iron and rolling stock
We vii! thus complete an undertaking
that wall be Of lasting Importance TO the
cities Of Oshkosh. Dubuque and all other
towns through which the road viii pass.
This railway, when completed, will be
OF incaleulab!e value to the lumber and
grain trade. and will be of great aid to
all agricultural, commercial and mechan-
lcal interests. We cordially invite the
co operation ef Monied mesa and all
Others. We are confident they will get
good return for any assistance the may
render US. We trust the day is not far
distant when the vast prairies of the
southwest will be open to direct and
rapid transit of the productions of the
Great Wes. John J.. TORRANCE,

THE principal objection which the
Milwaukee News urges against Gov.
Washburn is that in 1856, when a
member of Congress, he took the
back pay that resulted from an in
crease OF the then meagre pay of
Congressman. But why should the
News be SO Mortified at this act of
the Governors! It's chief editor
has been besieging our Legislature
for back pay for years, and that for
an amount three or four times as
much as the Governor received.
That the editor Of the News is not
a back pay grabber to an extent far
beyond even the members Of the
last Congress is owing simply to a
lack Of opportunity and not OF in
clination.

Chicago Tribune on Gov. Wash burn.

The Chicago Tribune, which is now
recognized as the leading Democrat
ic organ of the Northwest, and the
bitterest enemy of Republicanism,
foresees that Governor Washburn is
bound to be elected by an over
whelming majority, and indirectly
recommends the Democracy in this
State to accept the situation grace
fully, by offering no opposition to
him. Read what it says:
A call has been issued in Wis
consin for Liberal and Democratic
Convention to meet on the oath Of
September, to nominate ticket for
State officers. The call III terms
embraces all persons desiring re-
form. We suggest to these reform
ers in Wisconsin that they have it
in their power to give the people a
striking evidence Of their sincerity,
and that they do not merely pro-
pose to put in nomination one set of
otiice-seekers against another set.
The Republican Convention nomi-
mated for Governor the Hon. {. G..
Washburn. This nomination was
not made from any affection for the
Governor, but because the cOnven-
ton dared not do otherwise. Gov.
Washburn has shown his complete
independence of politicians and
party. lie has been bold and fear
less in his administration unawed
by clamor, he has resolutely opposed
everything that looked like dishon-
esty. That he is conscientiously
and fearlessly opposed to monopoly
in every form is beyond all question.
He IS no new convert. He fought
Credit Mobilier almost single-hand-
ed. He opposed that fraud when
his associates in Congress were
drawing their dividends from Cakes
Ames, and having their corruption
recorded in his memorandum book.
His honesty is not limited by his
party allegiance. His hostility to
monopoly has always been consist
ent. His irmness and devotion to
public interests are well known.
Every man in Wisconsin knows
GOV. Washbuln, and every. man
hnUws UnaJ ne ought to be elected
Governor. If the whole State were
searched, there could not be found
another who possesses the public
confidence to such an extent, and no
man more worthy of that confidence
Q al questions concerning the re-
fo-m of abuses and the restoration
OF honest government. Under these
circumstances, why should not the
Reform Convention of the oath, if
its only purpose be to secure the
election of Reformers, nominate
Gov ashburn for Governor? Could
they more gracefully recognize the
lhileNlble integrity. of the man, or
more clearly show that they seek
reform alone, and are not influenced
by party feelings! The election of
such a well known Anti-Monopolist
as GOV. Washburn by the unani-
nous vote of the State would be the
most e1lectual reform demonstration
that could be made.
