WHILE we find the moderate clement
voting for Judge Roszell, the extreme tenn
perance men and the saloon keepers united
on Mr.. Holdridge 1t is unnecessary for
us to say here how this mixing of ex-
tremes was brought about, suffice it that
they did come together and elect their
man. That they did vote together IS now
admitted on all sides, we believe.-Con-
serpdtSoe.
Our ncighbor is evidently at loss to
find something for a set off to the over.
whelming defeat of its candidates for city
offices at the polls last Monday, and adopts
the above theory at q hazard. AS to the
assertion that the moderate element
voted for Judge Roszell, it is only neces.
sary to say, that the same element voted
for him that always has supported him in
his thousand and one aspirations for office.
They may be moderate men in some sense,
but it is nevertheless true that very many
of them are subject to lmmoderate
drought. The insinuation that tho tenn.
perance men combined with the saloon
keepers to elect Mr. Holdridge Is not true.
1t is possible that one or two saloon keep.
ers voted for him, but the majority of
them, so far as we can learn, did not vote
at all No man saw saloon keeper
working for Mr.. Holdridge on election
day, nor was their influence felt in his
favor in any way. We state, also, what
every candid man will admit, that the
drinking men, as class, voted for his
opponent. The Conservatives assertion
that there was q combination of eek.
tremes," 10 all moonshine.

In presenting the above report to the
public few words of comment are not
out of place Such reports cannot. OF
course, furnish more than data for very
rough estimate of the work being done i'll
tile schools. II will be noticed that, as
might have been expected i'll the winter
months, the humber OF absences and tar
illnesses have increased this term, though
tile tardinesses this mouth arc one third
less than they were during January. The
increase in the number Of cases CT dlsci-
pline is due mainly 10 persistent, CON
certed effort to secure better order iii the
several rooms, by suppressing, us far as
practicable unnecessary communications
between pupils. In IA large proportion of
these cases the punishment has been tenn
porary suspension from the schools for
a period varying from one to three days.
When the parents of pupils cooperate
with the teacher, one such suspension is
generally sufficient to work a reformation
in the worst cases. On the other hand,
when both parents and pupils are indlttcr-
ent, suspension is of little service, and
other means of securing order must be
resorted to- Though to those unacquaint-
ed with practical school work it may APP
pear a matter Of littleimportancc, teachers
are we'll aware that scarcely any other
cause does more to disturb and retard the
progress of school than does incessant
communications between Pupils. If pu-
pil wastes five minutes whispering across
his desk to some playmate, he not only
wastes that much Of his own time, but
the same amount or more of the time of
half dozen surrounding pupils, who will
invariably leave off study to listen; OF
course such conduct, in nine cases out of
ten, is due, not to viciousness or to any
desire to violate the rules of order, but to
inattention and carelessness. While teach
ers fully recognize this fact, yet every
true teacher will consider it an important
part of his duty to guard his pupils against
carelessness as one of the most dangerous
of faults. Carelessness IN boy, unless
checked, may lead TO careless, shiftless
habits in the man, and we know the old
proverb considers it much safer to deal
with a knave than with fool. The true
teacher then, will not consider his work
done when he has given his pupils so
many facts on the subject of study, but
will ever watch carefully for opportunl-
ties of developing that character which
best fits the future man or women to per-
form all the duties of life.
With the exception of a very few cases,
at no time during the year have the schools
been in as good condition as they are in
at present. The order is better, the work
is more thoroughly done, and teachers are
beginning 10 feel some of that esprit de
corps which is so necessary to the success
of any professional body. Something re-
mains to be done by the people. 1t is to
visit the schools, and thus encourage both
pupils and teachers to believe that the
proper training of the youth Is not one OF
the least, but by far one of the most i'm
portant of the duties devolving on any
community. T. w. GRAYDoN.

SCHOOL ELEcuoN.-T annual election
Of Directors for this Independent District
will occur on Monday next Three mem
bers of the Board are to be elected, two
for three years, in place of Jed Lake and
E. Ross, whose terms expire, and one for
one year, to fill the vacancy caused by the
resignation of O. II. Z. Roszell, now held
temporarily, by appointment, by Mr. Dur
ham. There has been no move made for
the nomination Of candidates for these
positions, but as the present jncumbents
have signified their willingness to serve
if reelected, that may be the best thing to
do. However, anybody is at liberty to set
up other candidates and elect them. There
is altogether too much apathy on the part
of tie public about the filing of these re-
sponsible positions. They require the
best judgment and practical wisdom to be
procured

TIE Conservative has a correspondent
at Winthrop who writes interminable
communications devoted to the discussion
of the much vexed question of finance
with plentifully interspersed side digs at
Republican men and measures. These
communications are not conceived in the
best spirit, or expressed in the most candid
temper, but as they abound in appeals TO
class prejudice and Incorporate denuncia.
tons, they come up to the Conservative
standard of ability, and it cackles over
them loudly. 1t is generally supposed
that he who can successfully manage
his own finances is best fitted to teach
others. Accepting this as the rule-if we
are not mistaken in the initials-we
think that our advertising columns this
week, will furnish very pertinent Illus
tration OF how much right E. s. G.. has
to set himself up as teacher of finance.

It Stoppei; the Cough and Saved the
Child.

We have recently had occasion to try
the virtue of HALE's CoUGH CORDIAL in
our family. A little son, sick with the
prevailing fever, was affected with most
distressing cough, which would give him
no rest, night or day We have little
faith in patent" medicines, and seldom
much as try them; but something had to
be done, as the constant cough prevented
his recovery. We accordinly procured a
bottle of the Cordial from the agents, and
commenced its use according to directions.
The effect was marked from the very first,
and the child that night enjoyed refresh
ing sleep; and by the next night there was
scarce a vestige of the cough left. If
this is o fair sample of what the medicine
will do, its growing popularity Is not to
be wondered at.-Reedsburg Free Press.

The City Election.

The election for municipal officers in
this city, last Monday, was very warmly
contested, and a very large vote polled. -
Thanks to the closing of the saloons, no
disturbance of the peace, or other unseen
ly proceeding took place during the entire
day, SO far as we can learn.
Two full tickets were in the field, and
the issue was clearly defined between
those who Endorsed and approved the Wig
orous and impartial enforcement of law
and regulation, which has characterized
our city administration during the past
year, and those who chose to set them
selves in opposition thereto. The present
Mayor, Mr.. Holdridge, was very properly
the candidate for chief officer of the first
party, coming into the field as an indie
pendent candidate. His competitor, NOM
mated by a so-called peoples Caucus"
which was practically mob, was Elk
Mayor Roszell, gentleman personally
unobjectionablc. Besides these, candi-
dates for City Treasurer and Assessor
were nominated by the Republicans and
Oh the peoples" ticket. Geo. B. Warne
and Thos Sherwood were the Republican
candidates for these offices in the order
named, and J. F. Coy and John Sexton
the Peoples" candidates. In addition
to these, one Councilman was elected in
each of the five wards of the city.
AS before mentioned, the contest was
vigorous, though not rancorous. Each
party fought for its candidate with all the
enthusiasm it could muster, and the result
was a decisive victory for law and order.
The entire city ticket, of which Mr.. Hold
ridge was the head, was elected by ma
jorities ranging from IS to $50, and the
Republican candidates for Councilmen in
three out of the five wards were success
