Ed. CnRoNIcLE:-M. & j. in your
last weeks issue, try to break down
our statement with the following:
"He tries to make good his state
ment by what should have been paid
according to load of Sab wheat that
Mr.. Roberts bought"
Now, if that isn't proof,!what is ?
IF we have not stated facts, why not
give us the figures and prove the con-
trary? AS for their insinuation that
we own the Star, or have anything to
do with its marke ct report, it is like the
rest of their statements, incorrect. We
have given our figures direct from head
quarters, and if we have not given them
correct, let's have proof and not s'ars.
Hops are knocked into cooked hat.
Hardly any of the larger yards finished
picking. Hon. w. E. Rowe left about
900 lbs unpicked, his contractor
(Which we mentioned in former COM
munication) having "gone back on his
contract at rs cents, on account OF the
hops not being up to the standard in
quality, and has only taken 16 bales at
Is cts. 1t is feared the price will hard
ly be high enough to more than pay
for picking. l2cts. a pound is the
highest figure we have heard offered.
Quite number of Arenaites are at
tending the Fair at "Mazo." We hear
they have quite respectable turn out.
The Wisconsin river, which has been
so low of late that RATS we're run with
great difficulty, has risen very fast the
past few days. and now has depth OF
water again for all purposes.
The river surveying party, to
the number of about 40 persons, were
encamped opposite Arena,on the Sank
county side, last Sunday.
Mr.. A. McCutchen, who for the pas
week has been unable to leave his bed
owing to a severe attack of bilious

Mineral Point.

From the Tribune.
VIM. Perry has just begun a large
addition to his place of business. The
building will be of stone, and two
stories high. It looks like an increase
of business.
Mr.. John Uren, of Blanchardville,
while returning from the residence of
Mr.. Dudson on Thursday evening, fell,
with a child in his arms, into mineral
hole several feet deep. Mr.. Uren es-
capped with but slight injury, but the
child received several severe bruises.
1t is hoped, however, that it will recov-
err.
On Saturday afternoon a severe acct
dent happened at Schilling's hotel. It
appears that Mr.. George Clark of Milf

of eighteen feet, striking partly on
the right temple bone and right shout.
der, causing concussion Of the brain
and arresting the hearts action for a
few minutes. Dr.. c. G. Graham, newly
arrived physician in our city, was cali
ed and rendered valuable assistance.
We are happy to state that Mr.. Clark
has since recovered almost entirely
from the effects of his dangerous fall
and is able to attend to business.
Mr.. W. Suthers died at his residence
Saturday evening from stroke Of par
alysis. He had remained in the floral
hall continuously during the fair,and on
Friday evening, after taking care of his
collection Of flowers, those which so
beautifully adorned the south end of
the hall, he returned home. A short
time after, the ia tai stroke came upon
him, and he died about 8 o'clock p. m.
on Saturday. His health has been SO
poor for a long time, that be felt a
presentiment that death would soon
overtake him. Mr.. Suthers was a ma
tive of Yorkshire, England. In his
youth he came to America, locating in
Massachusetts,. About thirty years
ago he settled near Rock Branch, where
be has resided till his death. He was

loss. The funeral took place Cd Sun
day.
Our city was saved from heavy fire
on Saturday evening by thevigilance of
the night watch. In Lenahan's build
ing, above the store of Keifer, there is
a vacant room, whose floor is strewed
with paper, shavings, pieces of timber,
and every thing combustable. During
tie action of the troupe that was play
ing in the same building, some one
had gone across the hall, through
the vacant room to the window for a
breath of fresh air, and thrown away
lighted cigar. This set fire to the
combustable matter, which smouldered
away till about midnight, when it be-
came visible through the front window.
One of the night watches preceiving
it, succeeded in extinguishing it, and
without doubt prevented the burp-
ing of valuable block and several
| stores.

BagWe know of a town in Ohio that

BG We know of town in Ohio that
got a branch railroad in 1854 which
gave it just such advantages as Dodge
Vile would have with a branch from
the M. & st. =. road terminating here.
The town also had just such schools as
we have here,-scattere about in diff
ferent parts of the village. In 1868,
i. built new school house at a cost of
$4,000, and established a thoroughly
graded, well-conducted union and high
school, and that town has grown and
improved more since 1868 than it did
in all the years from 1854 to that
time. The railroad was great advan-
tage and a very profitable investment fol
the town, although it cost the people
over 100000. But without good
schools, there was continual draw
back against making the town perma
nent place of residence in which t.
raise family. Dodgeville needs boil
a school house and a railroad. L
ought have, will have, mast have both
and when it gets them, we shall hav'
about the best town to live in to b,
found within the broad limits of this
Yankee nation.

s- We understand that some per-
sons in the village are in favor of divid-
ing the school district, in order to es-
cape paying their share towards new
school house. Such course, we
think, would be very disastrous to
the best interests of our people. In
order to have a good school, it is neces-
sary that it be placed under the charge
of a thoroughly competent principal,
without good man at their head, our
schools can never amount to much.
Should the district be divided, the
expense Of maintaining well con-
Quoted school in each part would be
found burdensome on the people, and
the result would undoubtedly be, two
inferior schools at greater expense to
the people than would be necessary to
maintain frst-class school which
would meet the wants of the whole
district as it now stands. We hope
the movement for the division of the
dis trict will not succeed.
