Renegade Radicals Rebuked.

We recently copied from the Mil
waukee Herold, a prominent Reform
paper, the following paragraphs
The Representatives of the Reform
movement, at Madison, have yet
to prove that they are rcal Reformers.
That they are not wy Liberal, is
plainly indicated by their appointments
at the Capitol aud in the Legislature,
which have more the taste Of the "old
Party than of Liberalism. You might
well ask what claim nost of the APP
pointed gentlemen, who have lived a
life of pure Bourbonism, have on the
Reform movement, that they should
be entitled to obtain the fat Of the
BROTH
Still we do not wish to open this
question for debate at present, but
will wait to see how lhe entire jubilee
will end. But let us say this much
to the men OF Reform at Madison, if
they use too much of the sold party
grury' to oil the Reform machine,
then the Liberals, who have paved the
way to Madison, will no longer be their
tools. In hort, it was not the inten-
ton of the honest Reformer to galvan-
ze the old Democratic party to new
life; and the Till 9 al Retormer ut
Madison may take this advice. The
food might come upon them sooner
than they desire it.
The Prairie du CHEN Courier re-
spends to the above in the following
vigorous style
The above from the Madison State
Journal shows the impudeuce and
and cheek of the Hero1d as is character
istic of that paper alone. The idea OF
few renegade, sorehead radicals (call-
Ing themselves "Reformers") having
the presumption to arrogste to them
selyes the credit and spoils of the re-
cent DEMOCRATIC victory in Wis
consin, is the height of absurdity'
During the campaign just passed, it
was impossible to drum up even hand
full of Liberal Republicans" when
they were needed for political effect.
We know, for we saw it tried Why,
in this county of Crawford, where we
Democrats are mnitea again and worh-
ed together, We gave our old-fash-
Toned Democratic majority. And yet
there is not dozen "Retormers" Gas
they are called) among all the Repub-
licanS of this county.
The Legislature has done Just right,
so far. The State officers and repre-
sentative members were elected by
Democratic votes, and it was only right
that they should fill the appointive
Offices with Democrats.
1t is no use for such "Red Repx6h-
cans" as Coleman of the Heroid get.
ting his back up, because his German
radicals are not chosen. He knows
all about this Reform" business HIM
self. And without the staunch, old
line warehouses Of Democracy, the ere
form Movement" will play out quicker
than the "Greeley Humbug" did.
In this Democratic county of "Old
| Crawford" we worked with Democrats
to get out united Democratic vote for
VIM. R. Taylor because we knew be
was Democrat and, therefore, entitled
to our our suffrage. We gave the De-
mocratic (Reorm) ticket nearly 900
majority. Let those men deny that
they are Democrats, and dare to ignore
the true character Of the electors whose
votes placed them in Office, and the
next chance we get "Old Crawford"
will give them worse rebuke than
ever the "GreeIy swindle'' received

Gen. Sherman was again before the
house military committee, to-day, and
spoke of the army in connection with
Indian affairs. He pointed out on the
map the region of country in Texas,
1000 miles long by 100 broad, COM
prising half dozen organized counties
which, when he passed through two
years ago, was entirely depopulated, the
inhabitants having had to abandon
their homes on account of incursions
by indians. He said he was led to
believe that these Indians were Co.
manehes. but it was pretty we'll under
stood now that they were Kiowas, Chey-
ennes, aud Arapah oes, who raided
from the Fort Sill reservation, 800
miles of penetrating through the mill
tary posts, and helping themselves to
the horses and stock of their Texas
friends, which they preferred. doing
rather than be at the trouble of rails
ing them themselves.
He gave graphic account Of an
inter view with Satanic at Fort Sill,
when he had Satanta, Santapk, and
Big Tree arrested. double ironed, and
sent back to Texas, to be tried for an
attack upon q wagon train, and MUIR
der of two out Of the twelve teamsters,
one of whom was bound to wagon
wheel and burned Santauk was killed
in an attempt 70 escape, and the other
two were tried, convicted, and senten-
ced to be hanged, but the influence Of
humanitarians who regarded murder
on the part Of the Indians as a mere
exhibition Of moral insanity, had in
duced Gov. Davis of Texas, who ought
to have known better, to commute the
sentence of Satanic and Big Tree, and
the same Influence at Washington had
finally restored them to free lom and
they were now on the reservation,
ready TO start out on more murderous
raids. If they should scalp Gov. Da-
vls the next time, Gen. Sherman in
timated he would not she'd many tears
He reviewed the Modoc difficulties
and gave it as his opinion that Gen.
Candy had been the victim of the tenn

Indians. He favored transfer of the

if the country demanded extremely

could be accomplished by and through

and through the agency of those per.

RAISING RAhWAYAICENSE.

Last week a long argument was
Eaade before the Railroad Committee
of the Legislature aon the bill intro
duced by Mr.. Caswell, to increase the
rate oflicense on the gross earnings to
he paid by railroads from 3 to 6 per
cent. IL .4 o..a. -s ,--.. s-'-s7
Hon. John W. Cary, in behalf Of
the Milwaukee 4 St. Paul Railway,
who also claimed to represent the feel
ings of the Chicago & Northwestern
and the Western Union Roads on the
subject, made a lengthy argument
against the measure: claiming that the
present rate of taxation in this state
under the present system was greater
than that paid by railroads in Illinois,
Iowa, Indiana, or Ohio, where railroads
were assessed as other property, and
that property in this state did not pay
more than l per cent. on the actual
value, and that railroads paid that on
the value of the property he limited
shat there was such thing as the peo-
pie being unjust to railroad corpora
tions. 60
Hon. Mn Strong spoke in favor
of MIR. Casweh's bill, presenting strong
arguments and showing the justice
and necessity of such law Mr..
stroEg contended that the railroads
under the present system did not pay
cert Of taxes virtually, as they add
ed to their passenger and freight tariff
the amount they were taxed, and that
the people were made to pay the taxes
He proposed a new idea for the pro-
lection Ct the people against raj road

earnings, deduct the cost of ruanin G
