Senator Carpenters Position.

In the Sentinel of the 7th, is the
following, defining the position Of SEN
ator Carpenter:
By publicly announcing that he will not
be candidate for the Senate, Mr. Carpen-
ter can do much to redeem our State. Will
he make the sacrifice ?-MineraL Point Trib-
Qne.
The trouble is that, as Mr.. Carpen-
ter has not been nominated for re-elec-
ton, he naturally feels reluctant to
make himself ridiculous by declining
what has not been offered him, IF the
people of Wisconsin prefer some other
person to represent them in the Sen
ate, we are inclined to believe that
Mr. Carpenter will not repine. He
has shown no disposition to force HIM
self upon the party as candidate, and
we believe that he is comparatively in
different upon the subject. The effort
be has made in representing the peo-
pie in the Senate, devoted to the prac-
tice of his profession, would have yield
ed pecuniary results desirable to have
and like Antonio, he "has not all;
things to one bottom trusted" If the
people do not desire his services IN the
Senate, he has too much good sense
to suppose he can, and too much good
taste to desire to, force himself upon
them. Let the people rally and elect
a Republican Legislature, and their
decision as to who shall be elected Sen
ator will be satisfactory to the whole
people, and to one more than Mr.. Car
penter. He has done his best to serve
the people, and as no expectation that
be could do better in the future than
than he has in the past. If any man
can be elected who will not make any
mistakes, it is not only the right but
the duty of the people to elect him,
and he will receive far more cordial
support from Mr.. Carpenter than Mr..
Carpenter has received from the Min
eral Point Tribune.
We are advised that Mr. Carpenter
has not made the slightest effort to in
fuence the nomination of a member of
the Legislature, and that he will not.
He simply wishes the election of true
Republicans, and will cheerfully abide
the action of the Legislature in the
premises. And whatever may be the
result as to the Senatorship, he will
stand by the flag and defend the prin-
ciples of the Republican party.

most startling character come from
New Orleans which looks as if the
South was on the eve of another bloody
Revolution. A meeting Of the bust
ness men of New Orleans, was held on
Monday. at which Governor Kellogg
was asked to resign. Not acceding to
the request an attack was made by the
White Leaguers and rebellious citizens,
led by Gen. Ogden, and an engage.
ment took place in which the insur-
gents were victorious. General Bad
ger and General Longstreet commanded
the Metropolitan police force, and the
former received three gun shot wounds
which, it was thought, would prove
fatal. On each side eight or ten have
been killed, and about fifty wounded
United States troops are arriving al

The Marriage Of Miss Sherman.

The approaching marriage of Miss
Maria Ewing Sherman, daughter of

One Mere BOrgfa.

One day last week the Alabama set
Element in the town of Sterling came
near being the scene Of one of the most
horrible tragedies that ever happened
in Polk county. At noon the families
of Linsley and Mckee, with others,
commenced partaking of their dinner,
and were about to use some milk,
which, upon tasting they discovered to
be very bitter. They fed the milk to
two hogs, and almost Immediately the
hogs went into spasms and soon died.
Giving some to cat, it was soon dead.
Of course they concluded there was
poison in it. Sending a bottle Of it to
DR.. A. J. Murdoch, Of Taylor's Falls,
he analysed it and found it to contain
a large quantity Of strychnine, sufi-
cient to kill an entire neighborhood.
If these persons had used the milk, or
drank spoonful of it, few hours
would have ended their earthly exls-
tence. A woman, an intimate of the
family, and wife Of Brayton McKes,
bought quantity of strychnine of ?.
B. Lucy, at St Croix Falls, about
month since, as it is supposed to poi
son dog. She put it in the milk, it is
thought with the intention of poison
ing the two families.
Mr.. McKea was in town Thursday
to obtain the necessary papers for her
arrest. Hers examination is to take

THE "REFORM" NOMINATION.

No nomination ever made in the
state took people generally more by
surprise than the nomination on the
10th inst. Of Hon a. G. Cook, of Col
umbus, as the "Reform" Democratic
candidate for Congressman from this
district in opposition to Hon /. B.
Caswell. You see our democratic
friends had been fighting it out on the
the Farmer" line all summer, intend
ing, of course as everybody supposed,
to place Reform Granger in the field.
Probabilities pointed to the nomination
of Hon. r. q. Davis, of Dane County,
a genuine farmer and Liberal Re-
publican" But when the convention
came together it was discovered that
the delegates had other fish to fry be-
side Mr. Davis, and at once proceeded
to trot out Mr.. Cook, who was nomi-
mated on the 10th ballot, the final bal
lot standing Davis Is, Cook Is.
The nomination Of Cook is complete
triumph Of the Bourbon Democracy,
and shows that the democracy of the
Cd district by no means intend to give
up the party ship to any liberalizing OR
reform tendencies. Mr.. Cook has
been an ultra democrat all his life, and
stands to-day by every act of that
party for the past twenty years. In
season and out Of season he has stuck
by It's record and more than once has
been its standard bearer in defeat. In
1869 he ran for Secretary of State and
was beaten by L. Breese BY 1886 in
the state at large and 1924 in the
countries now comprising the I'd Dis
srict. In 1870 he ran for Congress in
the I'd District against Hazelton, and
was defeated by majority of 1899.
His own county gave majority against
him In 1869 of S14, and in 1870 of
645. Two years ago he was defeated
for the state senate by e. 0. Jones by
1,155 majority. It will thus be seen
that Mr.. Cook is not unused to defeat
and We are strongly of the opinion that
this year will be no exception to hi.
usual run of luck when he comes be-
fore the people for Office. 1t would be
unfair in US not to speak of Mr.. Cook
as gentleman possessed Of high per-
sonal popularity and of good reputation
as lawyer. Both the candidates be-
ing men of unblemished reputation
and possessed Of equal ability, it is
left with the voters of the Second Dis
trict, who have uniformly been true to
themselves and the country, to choose
between the representative cn the one
side of the rotten democracy, and an
apologlst for its disloyal acts during the
rebellion, and the faithful exponent On
the other of the Republican party with
all It's fidelity to the Government in
the hour of the country's peril and its
love, ofliberty and equality for all before

District Of Wisconsin will still act for
the best interests Of the nation by

SERIOUS CHARGE. A serious
charge was made at the last meeting of
the State Agricultural Society by Hon.
Sat. Clark, one Of the Vice presidents
OF the society, against Governor VIM.
R. Taylor. Governor Taylor held the
position Of President of the state Agri-
cultural Society the year previous to
his election as Governor, and Mr.
Clark charges the Governor with
vr5hgfully using the society's money
- the amount Of $4,000. Clark has
searched the records and claims he can
ind no solution to the defalcation.
This dam aging charge was made in
the presence of the Governor and
strange TO say he took no notice Of it
but remained silent. At the next
meeting Of the society Mr.. Clark stated
he would bring the matter before the
Executive Board in proper form. This
little defaleation matter the Reformers
can monopoli2e to themselves as it is
something that concerns them solely.
The charge is made by noted Reform
err against the Reform Governor of the
State We would say right here, how
ever, that for the good name Of our
state we sincerely trust that Governor
Taylor may be able to clear up the
imputation made against him

a PROTEST FROM SOME OF THE REHOBOTH
LoT HOLDERS. The following Spea ks forit itself:
We the undersigned, lot holders in the
ground of the Rrhoboth Camp Meeting AS
sOcation, respectfully represent, that when we
bought lots offered for sale by the Association,
we understood that we were to have Tee
simple title to the same, subject only to the
restriction in trade and traffic in such things
as were considered of an immoral character,
and that we could at any time sell and convey
a similar title when we chose to do so. As
there was nothing said at the time of sale re-
latlve to an annual ground rent, or indeed
taxes of any kind, we were led to suppose that
the money realized from the sale of lots would
be ample for the purchase money on the farm
and all necessary Improvements. 1t, however,
this is not sufficient we would not object tu a
uniform tax for such purpose, provided We
have a voice in the matter aud vote in elect
ing commissioners to lay the tax. But we do
object to paying ground rent or taxation in airy
| form without representation, and some of II,
who own Tor rather have paid for) lots will lei
them remain as they are without riSkihg NOR,
| by building, and when the stock holders las
claim to them for ground rent, will test the
legality of the claim.
The stockholders had right tn make money
by the sale OF their lots if they chose to do so
but such intent was denied, and lot holder!
were given to understand that all money rsa
lized beyond the payment Of the purchase
money on the farm would be expended in gra
ding and adornm, nj of their grounds, and THU
was supposed to be sufficient for the purpose
at all events nothing was said about grOunC
rents at the time Of sale.
We therefore protest against the form o
lease offered, and claim clear title to tn,
several lots purchased by Us, and voice il
all matters in which We are interested, Just a
the citizens of cities and incorporated town
have elsewhere.
Where lots are sold subject to ground rent
it is usual to explicitly state the facts, other
wise the purchaser considers that he is buyinj
a fee,simpls title, and would under such cir
cumstance be justified in refusing payment TO
any other.
Had we understood that we were only buy
ing ground rent title, some of US would hlv
kept our money for other purposes. We
therefore, object to the form of lease Offere,
by the stockholders, as we consider it in pa
terms fraud IN practice if not in intent.
