IHird-You have been reelected.
That is mere accident, and no an
swer to, or viEdication OF, the mis-.
rule which has bankrupted the
county. You must live here some
years more, if you have not yet
learned that an election only deter
mines that one man, by some means
or other, has got more votes than
another man.
Fourth-The Know-nothing string
has been harped on long enough
A touch or two of it answered elec-
tion purposes. Now let it subside.
If kept up, it will excite just sus-
picion that this false cry is employed
intentionally for purposes of mis-
chief and malice. The Supervisors,
Town Clerk, Town Treasurer, AS
SCISSOR, Register of Deeds, County
Clerk, Clerk of Court, County
Treasurer, Sheriff-eleven of the
best offices-have been held by per-
sons IN the five years past. in pro-
portion to forty-tbree terms of
foreign born to twenty three terms
| of native born-nearlv two to one.
No naturaized citizen in the place
now has, or ever had, any cause
whatever to complain of any dis
elimination arainst him on the
I ground of birth, aud no one before
ever haS made that complaint.
As to an exhibit of what every
body has got out of the tax-moneys
that may, or may not, be peril
nent when an individual offers him
self as candidate for office. The
issue is not on that now.
FJth-As to the invitation to
come up with bills for 5000 or 5000
and have them paid-this is either
an invitation or a menace. | sus-
pect it is the latter, and the answer
is that the law directs claims to
be submitted to the Board in the
first instance; they may be allowed
or rejected, but the right of appeal
Is given to any person dissatisfied.
1t is the promiscuous allowance
and payment of all sorts Of claims,
many of them having no affidavit of
verifeation, many of them unjust
and illegal, that has raised the most
of this trouble.
/ rest considerable confidence in
your natural integrity and prudence,
and hope that in the year to come
you will speak out, and not be silent
when you believe things to be wrong.
Honesty, independence and firm
ness may be able to save yourself
credit, and this place thousands of
dollars. l counsel you, moreover,
to accept advice and information,
when it comes to you honestly and
to the purpose, and to act only when
you know you are right.
Sirth-I should deplore any per-
sonal disability befaIling a generally
well-dispo>ed man which might con
sign him to the "poor house,.
Respectfully, etc,
H. HAYES.

Preparations for the Geological
Survey.

From The Milwaukee Commercial Times.
We had the satisfaction of meet
ing the new State Geologist last
evening, surrounded by the gentle
men who are to aid him in carrying
or the work that our eminent towns
man, DR.. | A Lapham, has so well
begun. DR.. Wlghtis devoting him.
self to this great work with a full
appreciation of its Importance and
with all the executive talent at his
command. Th,- plan OF the sum-
mer's operations is now nearly CON-
ple,ed. The public may rest as
,ured that whatever may be done
towards ascertalning aud utilizing
Wisconsin's mineral resources will
be done with system and thorough
ness and practical intelligence.
DR.. Wight will organize and d.
rect the labors of a number of the
most energetic and well-trained stu
dents of geology and kindred sci
ences. The torre includes several
who have conducted the survey up
to this point under DR.. Lapham.
Prof r. d. Irving, Of the Wis
consin State University, is gradu-
ate of Columbia College School of
Mines. He filled an important post
in the geological survey of Ohio
under Prof. Newbury, which is
recognized as one of the most sci
entifc surveys ever made, He is
all enthusiastic, conscientious stu
dent and an accomplished gentle
man. He will continue to give his
summers to the survey of the por-
ton of the State assigned to him.
Prof. Cham berlain, OF Beloit Col
lege, is a graduate of the University
of Michigan. He participated in
the Michigan survey under Prot.
Winchell. Mr.. Chamberlain is not
only a scholar of the first order but
an energetic, practical man.
Mr.. Moses Strong, Jr., graduated
at Yale in tie class of 1867 and
then completed course in the
Sheffield Scientific School. He sub
seqaen,ly prosecuted his studies in
Germany for two years. He has
been in the service OF the WiScon-
sin Central Railroad as civil engi-
neer. He is devoted to scientific
studies, and, as may be inferred, is
mentally equipped to do excellent
work.
Mr.. Gustav Bode, the chemest OF
the survey, is we'll known to our cit
izens for his eminence in his profes-
sion. He is as Industrious and
learned as he is modest and unpre-
tentious. DR.. Wight, we under
stand, is now in communication with
Major Brooks, now in Dresden. who
conducted the survey of the Upper
Peninsula of Michigan, and who is
recognized as an authority among
IRON nien. 1t will! be fortunate il
! tne services of Major Brooks can
be procured for the survey of Wis.
consin's iron region.
We give elsewhere little history
of the geological surveys of Wis
consin. From what We have learned
of the plans of the new state geol
ogist, and from the character OF
the gentlemen he has associated
with him in this work, we are conf
dent that the State will not suffer in
his hands.
DIR. Wight may possibly not sue.
ceed in finding gold on Sam Flield's s
farm, but he will undoubtedly sue.
ceed iii gaining and presenting a
vast amount of valua bic information
for the public concerning the geo
logical characteristics OF the State.

LOG DRIvING.-A dispatch of the
Sth from Eau Clalrs saws:

The drive has begun on the Eau
Claire. Aboute $50 men are in
charge. Over 500 have been sent
up the Chippewa, and driving will
begin next week. Water is about 7
feet above low-water mark, and
rising rapidly. A big flood is ex-
pected, as there is still plenty OF
snow In the woods. The ice moved
out yesterday from below the Dailes,
without doing any damage, aud the
river is clear between here aud the
Mississippi.

Taking the advices from all
portions of the country together
and carefully scanning them, one
cannot but believe that the wheat
prospects for the coming year are
good. The spring is opening up
pretty warm considering the ex-
IRENE lateness of the colp weather.

leaving unaccounted for l,767.l9,
and when this was brought to their
notice, why had they no inquiry to
make, and why were the orders not
handed over to the Board by you ?
Had they made the inquiry, might
1t not have given rise to an unpleas-
antness and lost to them your un-
founded cry of Know Nothingism
which did SO much to elect them?
Are you not aware that for the
tlrst time in the history of tax col
lecting in this county, town and
county orders declined in price
from sixty to fifty cents while the
books We're in the Town Treasurer $
hands? And this while taxes came
in beyond the expectation of every
one. And can you tell me whether
it could have had anything to do
with the decline in the price of or
ders, had you been allowed to
take tax receipts out of the Town
Treasurer's Office and leave your
due bill or memorandum ID pay
ment?-which said due bill Or
memorandum on settlement with
you as County Treasurer was turned
over by the Town Treasurer aud re-
ceipted Tor by you as so much cash
and orders. Whether, if such was
the case, your office as County
Treasurer did not give you de-
cided advantage over ali others,
who paid in their orders when they
got their tax receipts !? And
whether, by hypothesis, the Sta.e
tax might not have been paid two
months before it was, and orders
gone up instead Of down by the ab-
Soi pIlOn VI llC dlliouI1O udLlSu III

[ would be pleased to receive sat
isfactory answers to these ques-
tlons, that may be induced to give
you few more equally as pertinent
to answer; and in the meantime
think 1t We y appropriate that yoal
should write cards" about "cheeky
usurpers" and "beggars'', and the
game of 'bIuff and deception" to
keep "sharp business men, good
men at figures" off the County
Board. 1t is very evident you
want no such men on the Board or
in the County Clerks office.

A BONANZA Near San Francisco.

Some months ago Nicholas LARGO,
whoso place Is situated q mile and :
half east Of Soarsville. became impressed
with the idea that certain groupings on
his land. adjoining tho ranch Of Dennis
Martin, contained silver. Keeping the
matter to himself he came to San Fran
cisco and procured the services Of IN
experienced miner. For four months
the gentleman prosecuted tho work. and
the result Of IL was that a few days
since Mr.. LARGO applied to Dennis Mar.
tin for permission 70 mino on his lands,
Offering to give him 10 per cent. on all
minerals discovered there. Mr.. Martin
refused till such time % he could con-
suit with his attorney (Hon. Harvey
Kincadc. Of Redwood City, who conn.
seled him not 10 accede to the request.
This led to an inquiry. and the result Of
IL was that Mr.. LARGO and his mining
expert had discovered that u silver ledge
had existed there dipping into Mr..
Larco's place. and with q great body oil
tho lode in Martins place, and that
some Of tho groupings hal been taken
10 San Francisco and been assayed, the
amount Of return being $40 to tho ton.
