INFORMATION Is gwen that the
granger Governor of Wisconsin has
appointed 4. G. Ryan chiefjustice of
the Supreme Court of that State.
Friends OF the granger movement have
reason to regret this appointment; its
enemies could not have asked more
suicidal deed. In Wisconsin, the
grangers hold their Legislature and
have Governor of their choice.
They are, therefore, responsible for the
State administration. Under this ap-
polntment their responsibility will be
heavier than a stronger organization
could well bear. Mr.. Ryan was one
OF the most notorious advocates of
secession and rebel sympathizers in
the North during the late war. He
was the author of the manifesto adopt
ed by the Wisconsin Democratic State
Convention of 1868, the exceptionally
bitter hostility of which to the war
made its author aud adherents infa,
nous III the eyes of the best men of
the North, OF whatever party The
adoption Of that manifesto drove many
earnest Democrats out of the party,
and led them to range themselves
openly on the side of the national ad-
minlstratlon. The selection of the
author OF that manifesto, for the chief
Justlceshlp of the highest court in the
State, IS looked upon as a step that
must inevitably prove fatal to the
party responsible. Politicians in
Washington are confident the appoint
ment has ended the prospects of a
granger triumph in the State this fall.
Uulon men Of the oranges will regard
1t as an insult to their patriotism, and
Will see the necessity of expressing
their disapproyal Of it if they hope for
success III the future. Its effects will
not be cduined to Wisconsin. In
every State answer must be made to
the questions Does the grange turn
It's back on the men that stood up for
the Union? Does it aim to place in
offices Of honor and weighty RESPONSE.
billty the men who did all IN their
power to disrupt the tuion, to ernbar-
rass loyal movement, TO give aid to tile
rebels! Does it approve the doctrine
Of SECESSION" The appointment Of
Ryan by granger Governor is an af-
firmatiye answer to these questions.
Do the grangers expect success on
such a platform! Or are appointments
like this to be taken as evidence that
they stand as much aloot tfom patriot
ism as they claim to stand from poll
tics ?=-Utico N Y. Herald.

Catholic Total Abstinence Union.

From a lengthy report in the Fond
du Lac Duly Commonwealth, of the
doing Of the convention Of the Catho
lie Total Abstinence Union. We extract
the following items of interest:
The Convention then proceeded to
elect three delegates to the National
Union, which meets at Chicago in
October next, with the following re-
suit: Father Q Malley, Father Fair
banks and Father Walsh.
4 spirited discussion arose az to the
next place Of meeting it was finally
settled in favor of Green Bay by a
vote of II to a for Oshkosh.
The Convention then adjourned and
the delegates repaired to the st. Jo-
seph's Church, whittier the friends
from abroad had gone In conse-
quence Of the storm the attendance
from other cities was not as large as
had been anticipated. After services
at the Church the procession formed
and marched to Armory Hall, making
an imposing and impressive appear
ance At between one and two 0 clock
sumptaous dinner was served in the
hall. AL regretted that the storm pre-
vented the picnic at TayIor's Grove.
This evening there will be party at
Armory Hall.
We are confident that good results
will come from this convention. which
is the largest the State Union has had.
1t was a ine gathering of earnest men
pledged to the advancement Of a right
cause.
Father WiIliard's company Of TEN

boys made good appearance, with
their blue caps and red collars.

THE GRAHGERs down in Indiana
are getting sick of it already. The
so-called Farmers party, twin to the
Iowa Anti-Monopoly party, goes
against the Grange stomach and they
are passing resolutions denying any
fellowship with the party. A Green
burg, Ind, Patron Of Husbandrv
writes to the Cincinnati Gazette saving
that the Order are not in this new
movement, and sends the following res
olution, adopted by his County Grange,
in proof of his statement
Rssolred, That as Changers we deny
any completely with or responsibility
Tor the action Of the 10th Of June
convention, held at Indianapolis, in or
ganizing a new political party, and in
nominating State ticket for the same !:
but we fully endorse the action of the
delegates Of the Fourth Congressional
District in withdrawing from said con-
yentloa.
The Heosier Changers are not to be
caught in the new party net set by the
old Dem ocracy-not they.

ALMOST AN ACCIDENT.-As tie
train on the Madison L Portage road
was passing Sandersons crossing. those
who witnessed it were horror-strieken
at the sight of = young child, not to
exceed two years old, clasping the
guard-Dost at the cattle guard, and the
train passing almost over her head.
The frantic mother, without hat or bon
net, rushed down from a house some
forty rods distant, at the spsed of a
locomotive, wringing her hands and
screaming, doubtless expecting to find
her child mangled corpse. As the
last car passed the little one unframed,
the mother reached the spot, so over
Joyed at finding her little one unhurt
that she fell exhausted to the ground,
and those who witnessed the scene
drew long breath, and first uttered
their expressions of horror, STATE

A Wooden Railway in Wisconsin.
from the Grant County Herald. ]

rom me tTr4nF county Herald
d. Il. ". Williams is driving work
on the Tomah & Chicago Narrow
Guage Railroad from Wauzeka to
Reedstown, and it is expected that
trains will be running over that portion
of the road by the middle of Septem-
Der. The rails used are maple, which
are sawed about II by inches.
These are gained into the ties and
fastened at the ends with dowel pins,
the gains IN the ties being made ytrl-
tie larger than will admit the rails, and
on either side of the rail Is driven
wedges in opposite directions. These
naples rails are obtained at a cost OF
So per 1000 feet. $4,000 feet being
required to lay mile of track. 1t IS
estimated that the maple rail will last
over one year without repairs, hence
the interest on capital invested in iron
rail would relay track every twelve
months. Last fall on the Efkadol
Road in Iowa, a portion Of the track
was laid with maple rail, and examina
ton made of them in the spring shows
that they have not been injured in the
least by constant use. There is NJ
doubt but the wooden rail will be ex
tenslveiy used in sections of country
where heavy capitalists do not wish t
invest their money to the extent o
putting down iron rails.

Gov. WashbGrn's Great FI0urire
Mill at Minneapolis.

The Minnesota Farmer's Union
gives the following description of the
mammoth Touring mill, built by ex-
Gov. G. c. Washburn, at Minneapolis,
the motive power of which IS furnish
ed by the Mississippi river, at St. An
thony Falls.
The Washburn Touring mill at Min
neapolis, is one of the wonders of this
country. No where in the United
States or Canadas is there anything to
compare with it in size. while in the
entire world there are but one or two
larger.
1t was begun in May last. and has
been pushed forward to completion in
less than a year by an army Of work
men, at a cost of $3.50, eco. The
building is 100 by 1877 feet in size,
built in blue limestone in courses, and
is six and one-half stories in height, or
ninety feet from ground to roof.
1t contains forty run of stone, driven
by two Gve-feet, polished bronze wheels,
manufactured in Ghicopee, Mass, Of
$50 horse power each, which cost, with
the excavation in which they are set,
SIS, 600 Some idea of the water
power in Minneapolis may be gain
ed from the fact that the water which
drives them has heal Of forty feet.
The stones are silicious quartz, AMI
were selected in France BY Mr. George
II. Christian, the superintendent of
the mill, from the quarries at La Ferte,
near Paris, at which place the best
stones in the world are found. Mr..
Christian visited the leading milIers Of
France and Italy in search of all the
latest Improvements in making -four,
and purchased whatever of value
he could find for the new mill at Min
neapolis.
OF course it grinfs the "patent
-four. Mr.. Christian was the first to
introduce tae method in. this country.
The machinery for it was placed in the
first mill built here by Mr.. Washburn,
in ISL, and has now come into gener-
al use. The new -four, as most of our
readers know, is made Of middlings.
The wheat is first ground, coarse. and
the" goes through the separator which
removes the bran then the middlings,
containing the glutel and other nutri-
cious properties, are ground again,
making most superior article Of -four.
To make the best -four, it is necessary
to grind the wheat very slowly, and
from four to five bushels an hour only
are now run through, In place of from
eight to twelve, as fromerly.
The mill owned by Gen. G.. c..
ashburn, Of Wisconsin, who has
made investments in Minneapolis, in
one way or another, to the amount
Of 5000, 600. He has spared no pains
or money to make it as nearly perfect
as possible. 1t, is heated by steam,
lighted with gas, supplied with water
from the Holly pumps on every floor,
aud admirably protected against fire,
the boilers being entirely outside the
building, and hose in every om,rsady
TO be attached to the water pipes #
necessary.
The -four manuE ,tured here, with
the bran, will fill train of ears 4 day.

Few More Facts A5oErt the Governors
Financial framsa ctions.

A Few Mare Facts About the Governors
Financial transactions.
From The Hudson Star and Times.l
A late issue of The Milwaukee News
under the heading A Calumny on Gov.
Taylor, had the following
The Chicago Times has published
and The Sentinel copied a scandalous
story to the effect that Gov Taylor, in
displacing one Jenny Can old employee
Of Ex-Governor Washburn in the exec
utive office at Madison), put in his
place somebody who owed money to
him Gov. Taylor), so that from the
wages of the new employee the old debt
could be collected This story rests
simply upon the statements Of Jenny
the sore headed office holder who was
removed, and is a lie from the bot
tom.
It SO happened that Mr.. Jenny was
in this city the day The Ne,cs was re-
ceived here making these chars es
against him, and he visited this Office
and stated that the facts were as had
been given, and that he desired now
he had been accused of falsehood to
vim dictate himself. He accordingly
made the following affidavit which ex-
plains itself:
STATE of WISCONSIN, S., ST
CRoIX COUNTY, Jacob Jenny being
duly sworn deposes- and says He was,
for nine years prior to May last, en-
pIoyed in the office of the governor OF
this state at Madison, that he was first
so employed as janitor and afterwards
as general messenger and clerk. that
on or about the 18th day Of April last,
His exceHency, Gov. Taylor, called
deponent into his the Governors,
Office, and said to deponent IN sub
stance, that he regretted exceedingly
that change must be made IN the po-
sition held bp deponent, that he pro-
posed TO appoint person as deponent 5
successor who was not as fit for the
place as deponent but the reason for
making the change was that the per-
son so to- be appointed owed him, the
Governor, about $3.50, and that he
had no other chance of. collecting the
debt except to give him the position
occRpied by deponent, and then TO de-

duct portion of his wages each month,
and apply the same in payment of said
and that he could in that
way collect the debt; that when said
debt was in that way paid, deponert
should again have the place; and he,
the Governor, wished deponent would
find temporary employment about Mad
lson, as he was positive he would want
deponent again next winter when the
Legislature met.
That the Governor requested depo-
nent to remain in the Office for time
to instruct the person so to be appoint
ed in the duties of the position that
the Governor said to deponent he was
very sorry to make the change, but he
could not afford to lose the money so
owing to him.
That when depouent finally left. the
Governor requested him (deponent)
not TO make the conversations We have
had on the subject herein referred to
public.
Sworn to before me this 18th day of
June, 1874.
JACOB JENNY
H G. BAKER, Court Commissioner,
st. Croix Coonty, Wis
There is not the slightest doubt Of
the entire truth of Mr.. yepny's state
ments. He says no matter what the
Reform papers may say to shield the
Governor. that the Governor himself
will not deny the truth of the state
ments made in the affidavit.
The Ncvs and the other Reform or
gans who have been kept SO busy il
excusing the many plumbers, and seek
ing to divert attention from the gener
al incapacity Of Gov Taylor admins
tration, will please let us know wha
they think about this little perform
ance of His Refrom Excelleney.

A GOOD point made against the rail-
road companies, is, that while the law
passed last winter reduces their rates
generally, it also increases them at GER
tain points where the companies, under
the old order of things, gave special
rates, which were, in many instances,
N uch lower than the rates fixed by
the Potter bill. Now it is unreason-
able to suppose that the companies car
ried freights from these favored points
at an actual loss, and it is as true that
It costs no more to carry it given
number of miles from one station than
it does from another. So while the
law reduces the general tariff, it still
allows the charge of higher rates at all
points than they formerly charged at
some places where special rates were
granted, and where there was a profit
sufficient to satisfy the companies.
Viewing the question IN this light, and
taking into consideration that the gross
earnings of AL the roads were greater
during the month of May, IA, than.
they were for the same month of 49,.
we find ourselves at loss to discover
the great injustice that has been done
to the railroads = Waupaca Repsb-

\ DISPATCH states that there is
general danger of the destruction of
Sioux city and Covington by the Mis-
souri, river changing its channel. The
late rains have raised the Missouri 50
that a channel has washed through to
Big Sioux river, threatening the wash
in away of both towns. The citizens
are making preparations for a Mill riv-

case both towns escape washing away
that Sioux city will be left several
miles from the river by the changing
