and held the office the next but on,
preceding term. Mr.. Qnarles is wei
qualified for the office and makes gool
District Attorney. The Democracy
contest his election and run against hin
the same Reform candidate they run
against him two years ago. They were
beat then, and they will be beat now
j. V. Quarles is not to be beat by q
Reform from good to worse. He will be
reelected.
JASON LoTHRoP, candidate for County
surveyor, is Republican and has re-
ceived the Republican nomination He
is Surveyor and the only one in the
county. Being Republican and Sur
veyor the Reform Democracy have NOM
mated him for County Surveyor. Two
years ago they claimed Jonas to be a
Surveyor and racer and pitted him
against Jason. But the race and the
office was to Jason. Now they manifest
their wisdom indicative of Reform by
supporting Jason in the race. And the
race, though not always to the swift, will
be to Jason.
ALEXANDER BEATH, candidate for
County Treasurer Is resident of Rris-
toll and farmer. He is a man of good
habits and good abilities, and OF ster-
ling honesty and integrity. Though
not an Office seeker he has held the
Office of Supervisor of his town.
Having received the Republican
nomination he should receive the
united and vigorous support of the
Republican party. Republicans of both
city and county owe it alike to him
and themselves to unite in his support
and give HIM the full Republican vote
of the county. They should remember
the circumstances which give the
election to the Democratic candidate
for County Treasurer two years ago
and make redoubled exertions te
retrieve, as far as may be, the wrong
then done. They should do full
Justice to Mr.. Beath and no injustice
to Mr.. English. Give Mr.. Beath a
united and full vote and abide the
result,
DANIEL HEAD, candidate for Coroner
is a resident of Kenosha and retired
business man. He is a man of GOOD
habits and good abilities, and capable
of discharging the duties of any office
in the gift of the people of Kenoshs and
Kenosha County. He has held severa
important offices and has always dis
charged their duties with ability anC
fidelity. He will be elected and will
make q good Coroner.

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES

d. G. STEWART, candidate for Member
Of Assembly, is a resident Of Salem and
a farmer and stock merchant. He is a
Democrat, and man of ability and
cunning. For some time he had been
laying his pipes to be reached through
Reform and Granger as well as Demo-
cratic channels by saying the people
talked of nominating him but he did not
want and was not willing to be candi-
date fer any office. He has been can
didate and been beat a number of times
for Member of Assembly. He had never
been candidate and beat fer Sheriff.
And he preferred to be a candidate for
Sheriff to Member of the Assembly. But
the Convention preferred to nominate
him for Member of the Assembly and
preferred its own preference in this
respect to Mr.. Stewards. And Mr..
Stewards response is: Not my will but
thine be done. And now his election
is submitted to the will of the people
to be expressed at the ballot box. That
expression will be given on the Sd. of
November, and will probably be that
Mr.. Stewart is not wanted tor Member
of Assembly.
THEo. LoEsCHER, candidate for Sheriff
is resident of Salem and a merchant.
He is German, as his name and speech
would indicate, and man of respectable
appef "ance and intelligence. Further
than this we can not speak of him from
personal knowledge as we never saw or
heard of him till the day of his nomina-
tim, and our meeteng then had no con-
nectlon with his nomination or the con-
ventlon which nominated him. We
think he is but little known out of The
town OF Salem and not generally in it.
1t IS said that ne goes to work intending
to make good run. But however
faithful ne may work, with the popular
ity of the Republican candidate, John
Lucas, the prospect is against him and
his defeat almost certain.
Il. ii. TARBELL, candidate for Clerk
of the Circuit Court, is resident of Ken
osha and a medicine vender. Once a
Republican, be Greeleyized two years
ago, and has reformed into Democrat
His ability, with practical experience,
would in time enable him to discharge
the duties of the Office. But the duties
of the office would interfere with his
medicine vending business, and his medi-
cine vendi ng would interfere with the
discharge of the duties of the office. And
as there would be nothing gained and

torney. two years ago. Then as now
]. V. Quarles was the opposing candl-
date, and was elected. Now the contest
is to be tried over again. And, in our
opinion, this time J. B. Jilsun will be
defeated.
JOHN ENGLISH, candidate for County
Treasurer, is resident Of Kenosha and
County Treasurer. He is respectable
Democrat and man OF integrity. Two
years ago he was elected County Treasu-
ref, not upon his own merits alone, bat
in consequence of a deregatory report
started in Kenosha. On the afternoon
before the election, against his opponent
| This report was the means of securing
the election of Mr.. English. 1t is but
just to Mr. English to say that ha did
not START che report, however much he OF
his friends may have used it to secure
bis election. And however much iDjus.
tice may have been done TO his opp )sine
candidate, it Is but just to Mr.. Englisl
to say that it is generally understood
that be has made a good County Treas
urer. Being candinate for reelection
it is but right that he should he elected
or defeated on his own merits or demer
its, rather than elected on a derOgator,
report started Oh the eve of election,agaDs
his opponent. Claiming equal if NOT supt
rior ability and merit for the Republican
candidate we Ease our opposition to Mr.
Eng ish on political grounds. And W.
ask for a fair contest and shall Willingly
abide the result of the election.
J. P. RUNKEL. candidate for Coroner
is a resident OF Wheatland and farmer
He is said to be q respectable German
of fair ability. The only duty of thu
Coroner in Wisconsin being the servic,
of process on the Sheriff, should occasion
arise for the official duty of the Coroner
it might be essential that he should re-
side at the County Seat where the Sheriff
resides. And as Mr.. Head, the Republi
can candidate, is resident of Kencsh,
and man of equal ability with Mr.
Rankel, it would seem to be proper anc
right, aside from political consideration
that be should be elected. tits, however
for the electors to decide on election lay
which shall be Coroner, John T. Runke
or Daniel Head.

BUTLER'S ESSEX SPEECH.

BOSTON, Mass, Sept. 10, 1874.
General Butler addressed the voters of Essex
this evening upon the political issues of the day,
and requested their suffrage. His speech was in
substance the same that delivered in Gloucester.
The condition OF Southern affairs received partlcu-
lar attention and he argued that II he were refused
a reelection one faithful watchdog woula be re-
moved from the tower of right and OF justice, and
such howl would 60 up from rebeldom as had
not been heard since the beginning of the war.
In addition to the points touched upon in the first
speech he spoke OF the p opposed reciprocity treaty.
expressing himself as unalterably opposed to
1t on the ground that 1t would strike DEATH
blow to the shipbuilding interests
of his district. He was opposed to civil service
reform because men would be kept in office all
their ,ives and 1t Disseminated against the poor
soldiers and their widows in favor OF those who
spent their lives in accommodating mere book learn
ing, which was not practical
The attendance was as large as the hall would
accommodate and considerable enthusiasm was
manifested.

WANTED-A BRIeADIER GENERAL,

The field officers OF the Second brigade, First
division, NG.SN.Y., met last night at the Military
Riding Academy in West Thirteenth street to bal
lot for commander Of the brigade, to fill the
vacancy created by the resignation of General
Funk
Major General Shaer acted as chairman, and
his aldede-camp, Colonel Jussen, as secretary.
There were eleven field officers present-Colonel
Spencer, Lieutenant Colonel Kroeger and Major
Hallen, OF the Fifth regiment; Colonel vmar
Lieutenant Colonel Undekant and Major Sussman
OF the Eleventh regiment; Colonel Conkling Lieu
tenant Colonel Beatty and MAJOR Charles G. COnk-
ling, or the Eighty-iourth regiment; and Leuten-
ant Colonel Van Wyck and Major King, or the
Sixth regiment
There were absent Colonel Sterry, of the Sixth,
and three officers of the Ninety-siXth regiments.
The first ballot cast resulted as iOlOws:-TwO
for Colonel Sterry, five for Colonel Nillmar, three
for Colonel Conkling and one for Christopher Pull
man. The second ballot stood three for Sterry
five for Villmar and three for Pullman.
Colonel Spencer moved to adjourn, as there was
no chance OF agreeing upon person. He thought
fuller representation should be present. lis
motion was carried, and the meeting adjourned
without selecting commander for the brigade.
The greatest interest Is manifested about the re-
sut and it is more than PROBABLE that the contest
for the post OF honor In the Second brigade will be
bitterly disputed.

A STORM IN THE WEST.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept 49, 1874.
Considerable apprehension was felt here TO-DAY
for the safety Of the steamer Lake Breeze, from
Benton harbor for this port she being overdue
twelve hours, and tug was sent to look for her
and found her, helpless and drifting. some thirty
miles from this port. her machinery being dis
abed. She was anchored by the tug. which then
returned for assistance to tow her In here.
Special dispatches to the Tribune from Daven-
port and Dubuque, Iowa, and Rock Island, ILL.,,
give an account OF terrible storm OF rain and
wind in those localities last evening, by which a
great amount Of property was destroyed and
damaged. At all those places houses were un-
rooted, walls blown down and fences scattered
while cellars and Easements were filed with
water. The whole surrounding country was
Hooded. At Rock Island the First Presby terian
church was nearly destroyed, portion Of the roof
being lifted up and dropped through into the base
menr, carrying with II the organ, pulpit and floor
and upon these great portion OF the walls fell.
1t Is impossible to estimate the amount Of the
damage, but 1t will be many thousand dollars.
During the storm freight train on the Illinois
Central Railroad, when three miles west of Dun
leitn, ran into break caused by the flood. The
engine was completely wrecked and the
engineer, Andrews; the fireman, Orton. and
a brakeman named Allison were buried beneath
the ruins. They were taken out in a terribly
scaded and bruised condition. Allison died soon
after. The other TWO are lying in critical con-
dltlOn.

The Redemption OF Currency.
The National Bank Redemption Agency gives
notice that in consequence OF the expansion Of the
five per cent fund and the failure OF the national
banks to make prompt and general response to
the request for an additional deposit OF five per
cent OF their circulation. 1t has become necessary
to stop the redemption OF national bank notes for
a short time. Remitances OF national bank notes
which are now in transit Will be counted and paid
for. but those RENTED after this date will be held
until notice Is given Of the resumption Of redemp-
tions. Mean while the whole force OF the agency
VIII be employed on the assortment of the notes
already returned IN order enable 1t to make calls
upon the banks to reimburse the Treasury for their
redemption. 1t Is hoped that redemptions will
be resumed within two or three weeks. The ces
sation Of redemptions need not prevent COM
plance with the call for the additional five per
cent deposit. The larger the amount OF legal
tenders deposit under the call the sooner the
agency will be enabled to resume redemptlOns.
There seems to be some mlsunders landing as to
the operation OF the additional call. The deposits
made under this call will De treated simply as are
advances from the banks to reimburse the Treas
ury for their notes redeemed but not yet assorted.
AS fast as the notes shall be assorted their amount
will be charged against the additional deposit and
no request for reimbursement will be made upon
the banks making the deposit until 1t shall be ex

Colonel and Brevet Major General com manding.
Much indignation was expressed this morning
by the Secretary of War and AdJutant General
Townsend at the publication OF forged telegram
purportine to be signed by the Adjutant General
and addressed to Genera! Emory, saying:-
You will follow out instructions as in former
dispatches. All turbulent persons must be put
under arrest.
This order will be implicitly complied with.
The forged despatch was also telegraphed
North last night by several persons. The Secre-
tary or War has determined to discover the forger
and has taken measures to that end. The actual
telegram sent to General Emory merely acknow..
edged the receipt Of his yesterdays despatch.
