On Democratic authority, it can
be proved that Ben. Evans is as
neat, attentive, painstaking and ac-
curate as any register that ever oc-
cupied the office in Iowa county.
So well pleased are the people that
he was renominated by acclamation,
receiving every vote in the Repuli-
can Convention. Mr.. Evans is a
farmer and Granger. The people
cannot do better than to re-elect
him; as they no doubt will.

DISTURBANCE IN School On
Wednesday, Mr.. Van Wormer, prins
cipal of our city schools, having
punished daughter of Mr.. Edward
Prideaux, as the parents thought,
too severely. Mr.. Prideaux, in
great excitement, proceeded to the
school to personally chastise the
Principal, and attempted to do SO,
but some Of the larger pupils inter-
fering, no serious injury was done
to any one. We know nothing of
the merits of the case, but whatever
they are, Mr.. Prideaux cannot be
justified in taking the law into his
own hands. Ii the punishment of
the child was unnecessarily severe,
or without sufficient cause, the
proper course was to lay the mat
ter before the school board, where
it would undoubtedly receive atten-
tention, and such action as the facts
warranted.

KEARToN COATES has been tried
and found faithful in many private
and public places. He is the supe-
rior of his opponent in qualifications
needed to make an efficient, safe
member of the Legislature. He is
a practical farmer, and sound on all
questions touching the interests of
the people. He will not vote to
send Alex. Mitchell or any other
railroad monopolist to the U. S.
Senate; but can be depended upon
to vote for such man as the peo-
pie of this Assembly District will
endorse. For these reasons, and
for others not here given, Mr..
Coates should receive every Repub-
lican vote in his district and be
elected by 200 majority.

NUMBER 43.

GOVERNOR WAsHBURN spoke two
hours to crowded house in this
city Wednesday evening. The Gov
ernor's speech was mainly devoted
to State affairs, in which he clearly
showed that under the Reform ad-
ministration of the State the Calk-
ms Steal, the Pump Carpenter Steal,
the Wisconsin Central Land Grant
fraud. and the Lacrosse Bridge
fraud had all been accomplished;
while under Republican administm-
tion the same things had again and
again been defeated, No ono pre-
tends to deny the truth of this ar
raignment, and only party-blindness
can prevent any one from seeing
the force Of them as reasons why the
Reformers are unworthy of further
support from the people. He con-
clusively shows that the election last
fall was carried in by the railroads,
and that his defeat was owing main
ly to their enmity of him.
The same interest, headed by
Alex. Mitchell, is in favor of the So
called Reform ticket this fall. We
ask the people, will you aid them
to accomplish their designs |!

FAR be it for us td cast the least
reflection upon BenjAmin Thomas,
of Dodgeville. We have known and
respected him for years past and
expect to do so for years to come.
If elected, he would be safe custo-
dian of the treasure of Iowa county,
beyond doubt. But, with equal
force, the same can be said of Chris.
Kessler. He has been tried in posi-
tions of trust, and always found
faithful and efficient. AS Treasurer
of Mineral Point city he proved
honest and capable, and enjoys the
confidence of the people to such an
extent that any bond required by
the county board he can furnish as
easily as if he were millionaire in
stead of poor man. His qualifica-
tions for the office Of Treasurer are
ample-certainly equal to those Of
Mr. Thomas. AS Clerk of the Cir
cult Court he has given entire salts
faction to all concerned; no case
has suffered through neglect or in
efficiency on his part. The Office
he has held, be it rendered, yields
the least income of any in the county
not to exceed 500 per year-and
that he has held it should not be
argued against him. AT the out
break of the war Mr.. kessler en-
listed in the gallant I'd Wis, and at
the battle of Bulls Run was wound
ed in the arm by a rebel bullet SO
that the bone between the elbow
and shoulder had to be taken out,
and thus he is crippled for life
utterly unable to perform the light
est manual labor for the support Of
himself and family. We do not be-
lieve in electing men to Office
simply because they are poor or
crippled, but when a poor man, who
is fully competent, a MANNED soldier
who is worthy, is presented against
a wealthy, prosperous business man
no more competent or worthy, We
can have but one choice.

pied that office, He is 9 good pen

Mr.. Byrns, the opponent of Mr..
Hoare, is young mechanic, Of

no taxes has no interest in the
county more than to secure employ
ment in it, and should he fail in
that, is ready at moments notice
to make his home elsewhere, His
qualifications for the responsible
Office of County Clerk are not equal
to Mr.. Hoare's. Here are reasons
sufficient, it seems to us, to con-
vince any unprejudiced man that
Mr.. Hoare should be elected, a. he
certainly would be if the two men
were well known to the people of
the county.
