Thirty came two years ago, and thirty
arrived year since, and thirty more are
expected in about fortnight So far
their department has been excellent
and their progress squite remarkable.
The students ale placed at first in cult
ured families, two in a place, where
their first aim is the mastery Of our
language. They are ali under strict
supervision, and spend each from two
to four weeks a year at the Head
quarters " of the Chinese Educational
Commission, in Hartford, where they
are carefully examined as to their. hab-
its and progress. Scattered in some
twenty or thirty different towns, these

MORE REFORM.

The Reformers of the Fourth Con-
gressional District nominated Sam
Rindskopf, of Milwaukee, for Congress
at their convention, Wednesday of last
week. Tie other candidates were
Judge Mallory, Hon. D. W. Maxon,
and W. A. Pors. Sam, however,
swept the board clean, forcing his
nomination through at the point of the
greenbacks he used as told by J ge
Mallory in the convention ia the
following words:
I allowed my name to be used, in
good faith; I think most of the others
did. Select one who will do us honor.
IF you can't find one inside of the Con-
vention, &C outside. There arc plenty
of good men. [ protest against the
principle that man can't 60 to Con-
gress unless he spends $4,000 blood
money in primary meetings. If we
can't abolish that, we might as well
throw aside the Reform party and call
it a lie, fraud, humbug.
We think it will hardly be acknowl-
edged by any one that the principle of
true reform was exemplifed in either
the manner the nomination was brought
about or in the style of candidate pro-
duced in this case. If the Reform
.ers' of the Gibraltar of Wisconsin are
determined to send Mr. Rinskopf to
Congress as their representative surely
the Republicans can afford to let them
do it.

ANOTHER BISHOP DEAD.-DAvEN.


PORT, Ia. Sept. 26.-The precarious
condition of Bishop Lee for the last
few days has caused much anxiety
among his friends and the people of
this Episcopal diocese. Yesterday no
hope was entertained of his recovery,
and this 4norning came the sad intelli-
gence that the Ri. Rev. Bishop Henry
Washington Lee had ceased his labors
on earth during the dawning hours.
Bishop Lee was born in Hampden,
Coun., in 1915, and was son of Col.
Roswell Lee, superintendent of the ar
mory at Springfield Mass, his ances-
tors being of English extraction and
residents of New England for several
generations.

FIGHTING IN SPAIN AND CUBA
HENDAYn, September 25.-General
Moriones has begun series of opera
tons With the object of relieving Pam
peluna, and fighting has been going
on for three days. The engagement
of the first day was indecisive. On
the second day the Republican artillery
gained an advantage and inflicted
heavy losses on the Carists. Yester-
day General Moriones resumed the
offensive and dispersed several insur-
gent battalions, but failed to follow up
the advantages he had gained.

THEINDIANA METHOD.

Indiana politics on the Democratic
side reveals in queer condition Of things
and shows up the consistency Of the
democrats in funny way. The In
diana Democratic convention declared
itself in favor of unlimited greenbacks
and the payment of the 500 bonds in
paper, and there was no avowal in the
convention in opposition to this doctrine
of finance. But change of sentiment
On this question having become neces-
sary, at least In some portions of the
state, Hon. Joseph E. Mcdonald,
Chairman of the Democratic State
Committee has gnored the principles
OF the platform adopted and is making
speeches in favor of specie ipayment
and an almost immediate return to a
gold basis. Governor Hendricks.
smelling the battle afar off, has very
vehemently taken the side Mr.. Nc
Donald has espoused while Dan Voorhees,
and few lesser lights, are given the
distinction of showing up the beauties
Of initiation and an increased volume of
greenbacks as called for by the Demo-
cratic platform. This ought to be con-
sidered riding two horses at once with
a vengeance. For the Republicans of
Indiana to succeed we think it is onlv
necessary for them to show up the ut
ter inconsistency and double dealing
practiced by their opponents on the
finance question.

The Congressional Convention.

A detailed account of the Democrat.
ic Congressional Convention, which
convened in Sheboygan on Tuesday,
will be found upon the local page of
this paper. 1t will be perceived that
it was most remarkable convention.
It continued in session nearly three
days, ard took one hundred and nine
ty-seven ballots before it succeeded in
nominating a candidate, being a much
larger number of ballots than were
ever before taken for a similar purpose
in Wisconsin.
The delegations from Dodge, Fond
du Lac, aud Manitowoc, stood by their
Ca ndidates with true Democratic peril
nacity, when an Office is in prize, the
Delegation from Sheboygan being the
only one that wavered until the one
hundred and ninety-sixth ballot was
announced.
There was q moments pause. 1t
was near y time for the afternoon trains
to depart. The Dodge and Fond du
Lac delegations were sorely in need of
clean linen. Some kind of bargain
was made, aud General Bragg sudden
ly withdrew his name in favor of Mr.
Bnrchard. This gave the coveted
nomination to Dodge County ou the
next ballot, leaving the Lake Shore
Reformers" impotently crashing
their teeth over the fortuitous cir
cunstance that gave the counties of
Sheboygan and Manitowoc, with IS,
900 population, only one more vote in
the convention than Dodge county
with its Al 900 population.
The nomination of Mr.. Burchard is
by no means satisfactory to the Lake
Shore Reformers" The conduct Of
the Dodge County delegation is de.
nounced as stubborn, I'm compromising,
and lictatorial- The friends of Mr..
Villas are especially angry because GER
tain Dodge County delegates falsely
represented him to be a railroad man,
and publicly declared that the people
of Dodge would not vote for him un-
der any circumstances. The, Sheboy-
gan County Reformers " are gener-
ally disguised. They now see that
they might have secured the nomina-
ton if the delegation had been unite
in favor of Mr.. Hotchkiss. The dele
cations from Manilowoc and Fond du
Lac both would have gone for this
gentleman in preference to Mr.. Burch-
ard, especially after Sheboygan Coun-
tvs right to claim the nomination was
so clearly demonstrated by Judge Will
liams.
Now, let the Republicans put an
able and unobjectionable man in the
field against Mr.. Burchard and it is
not impossible we may be abe to elect
him. We certainl could hardly nom
mate man who 1 no a vel qualified
for congressional service as theman who
made the silly speech at the opening
of the oratorical tournament, on Wed
nesday evening. Sheboygan Herald.

A New Business.

A new business has been started
by DIR. WALL in Gallipolis, VIA
tobacco factory. Ourself, like the
general reader, was not aware that
the business Of manufacturing to-
bacco and cigars was carried on so
extensively in our midst. On Mon
day we passed through the factory,
and found that it far exceeded our
anticipations. The DR.. has on hand
about 10000 pounds of tobacco ready
for the mandatory. He runs eleven
hands, four men and seven boys.
They were all hard at work when we
called. Nearly all of the tobacco is
from Guyan township, has no bitter
ness, is lighter colored, is uniform in
color and is fifty per cent. better than
Old Va. tobacco. The tobacco is
mostly put up in four-ounce plugs
and skies. Before this it goes through
steaming process at 210 Farenheit
which is about equivalent to two
years age. The DR.. has not com
menced selling yet, his revenue
stamps not having come. He has on
hand 10000 stogies and cigars; SOC
lbs. of plug tobacco in boxes, and
about 1000 lbs. ready to be put il
the boxes. Taken as a whole it is 6
big business, and the DIR. deserves
the patronage and thanks of all oul
citizens.

NV Daughter, o, My Daughter.

My Daughter, y, MY Daughter!
He was a bashful young man.
Bashful young men are the kind, but
they're scarce. When we die the
race will be extinct. She was one of
those sweet creatures that seeing was
loving. She had lips the color of
faint buds; pleading brown eyes,
and something in her gait that
would undo most any of US. They
lived in Writ county, West Va
They loved. Somehow they will take
to it. The old folks protested. He
swore by the cestus of Venus that he
never loved SO kindly; she swOre by
the beard of the Prophet that she
never loved so blindly, and with bag
and baggage they started for Nebras
ka. The governor saddled his horse.

always bad. We have never known a
drummer who was good. There may
possibly have been one in the dim
past but he died early for lack of
congenial associations. Abelard
poured out his secrets to those wick
ed men. They in turn told of seeing
the governor on their track. They
told wonderful stories (they will do
such things). They knew he was
right after them. They told horrible
tales about love and lead. They
forced the couple to get off at Iron
ton and get married; all kissed the
bride, and told the "old man" to 60
