lapse Of the term for which hr. Kennedy, tn,
incumbent, Was appointed by the Board O
County Supervisors. Alr. Kennedy is
candidate for reelection. Many bitter thing
have been said against him by his polt
ical enemies, but it ia difficult to convince any
one who has really visited the House Of Correc
ton and studied its working that Mr.. Kenned.
has proved either negligent or dishonest pub

business manager OF the Seebote, an influential
German afternoon paper, are also credited with
good men. Mr. Mcdonald proved himself an

Mr. hrnuss is equally deserving OF public con-

candidates present themselves than to let them

TIE STATE ELECTIONS.
There have been two gatherings Of leading
Democrats in this city during the past week. for
the purpose Of considering the situation, aud
concerning measures for electing their man Tay-
lor aud the Democratic ticket. 4 result Of the
first confab Was the publication Of Al appeal to
the public, whitewashing the bounty-grabber
Governor, which is surely one Of the most wishy-
washy campaign circulars ever printed. This
for instance, is the only answer they make to
the well-authenticated charges against the Gov
eznor, almost any oDe OF which would consign an
ordinary citizen to the Penitcntiary:

Office OF Governor, with all the perqu.6ises, which
are SO yaluable to Taylor, are Of no account to
him. He seeks the hcnor, not the pelf- His

Mayor OF Democratic CRY, his best supporters
have been found among the Democratic ranks.
The highest rewards in his gift have been freely
distributed among the Democrats. He has stood
so often between the peopte and attempted
steals that his name has become among
US the ayuonym of honesty. Who can
doubt where Honest Hal would stand
in any fight where the people are
ranged on the one hand and fraud and corTup-
ton on the other? He is emphatically pion-

this State, aud much err it Harrison Luding- |

WILL THE GOVERNOR BE SENT TO THE PEN1- |
TENT1ARY5 |
Our State laws are severe on the subject OF |
bribiug or attempting to br7be public officials, |
aud oaly recently one Tyler WAS sent to the Pen |
tentiary for such an o1fense. It is charged that |
William 4. TAYLOR, the man whom the Reform
ars elected Governor aud have put mp for I
:e-electlou, has been guilty Of precisely this /
;,lme for which Tyler Was SO punished, |
WITH the sole difference OF time place.
yet forth and sworn to, and have never been |
ienied, the only defense being 4 connterb1aat OF
similar to that Issued by the Taylor
Whtewashing Committee, which is
,oticed elsewhere. The Sentinel thinks that il
Tyler is punished, Taylor should not be free
nan, aud that the fact OF the latter being Cover
lor should not be the means OF shielding him
rom the consequences Of criminal act. It
herefore calls for his Indictment. it being the
duty Of the District Attorney Of Dane
County to file an information against him. II |
Taylor is innocent, he will not dodge the issue.
FOE THE FATHEhLEss.
Fancy fairs of ali klnds have become SO CON-
non. people have begun to lose interest in Them,
IDless personally connected with the objects Tor
'hich they are projected. Yet there has
'een fancy FIJI, the past week,
n this ciEE which has attracted all |
lssses OF citizens, OF all religion and natiouaties,
-thatiu aid Of the poor little orphans OF st. Rosa
lsyIun, Catholic institution that has done
ast amount OF good in this city. The Catholics
urnished the tables With the most liberal coa-
t1butions ever seen on similar occasion, and
be Protestants Joined hands in paying for the
ame. Great good humof prevailed, and lively
uetness was transacted III all branches OF the
fair. Archbishop Henni, with the leading ec-
les.astics Of the city visited the sceno
Wednesday, aud were much pleased with what
hey saw. Many pgominent Protestant ladies',
lways foremost in works of charity, were large
urchasers Of perfectly useless goods At fabu-
,us prices. to lay up in secre: to the credit Of
1elr account wlth Heaven.
SIGNS OF REPUBLICAN, UNITY.
It will be remembered that not the least among |
10 causes Of the defeats Of the Republican party
this State in 1878, and since, WAS the disun-
n existing among the Republicans themselves.
. many influences were at work, SO many inter-
sts wore combined, to render this disunion per-
anent, that it looked ut one time as though the
agments Of the party could never be gathered |
