CONE to think OF it, it is a good

from the Herald's "cnmmissiuner" in

bg. Simple and unpretending ig.
norance is always respectable, and
sometimes charming; but there is
little that more deserves contempt
than the pretense o. ignorance to
knowledge. The curse and the
peril of the language in this day,
and particularly in this country. is
that it is at the mercy Of men who.
instead Of being content to use it
we'll according to their honest ig-
norance, use it i'll according to
their affected knowledge; who. be-.
ing vulgar, would seem elegant,
who, being empty, would seem fall;
who make up in pretense what they
lack in reality, and whose little
thoughts, let off in enormous phra-
ses sound like fire. crackers in an

MORE FACTS ABOUT CHOLERA
MORBUS.

Cholera Morbus is now trav-
cling through the country,
ostensibly for its health, but
really in the interest Of Sor-
row and Suffering. It has
been to Oil City, and having
had a brief but spirited inter-
view with it, we desire to
warn the public against it.
Cholera Morbus doesn't say
much. 1t appreciates the fact
that actions speak louder than
a street merchant with a new
kind of glue. It is quiet aud
unassumlng, and allows it's
victim TO make all the fuss. |
1t is the champion wrestler of|
the world, catch-as-catch-can'
or any other hold, and as a
prize>6ghter is to be avoided.
1t has no respect for the rules
of the P. R., and will strike
below the belt nine times out
of ten. Without a word of
warning it will catch a man
in the stomach. and double
him up quicker than the kick
of a mule. If the victim he
a short man, he will roll up
like dough-nut. If he be
a tall man, he will fly together
like a watch spring. In this
condition he is Of no earthly
use, unless as d worm in a
distillery. A man rolled up
like a thread on a spool can't
be expected to do much work.
But 10 hear him groan and :
complain and carry on in one !:
way and another, you wonld !:
:hink he did more hard work !:
or less wages than any other !:

In this condition he will do
Utmost anything. He will roll !:

While we earnestly condemn all vio-

republican party expresses its heartfelt
sympathy with the condition of the

public attention should be called to the
grave Importance of the labor question.
and the most careful consideration
should be given to the same by federal

Wisconsin, that during the many years
in which the Republican party has been
III the ascendency, no stain has been
found upon It's record in this state, and
we therefore confidently point to its
whole history, and especially to the
wise and economical administration of
Governor Harrison Ludington, as the
best evidence and guaranty Of its inten-
ton and purposes for the future.

The government of the United States
is prudent in exercising great deal of
patience and forbearance towards Mex
leo. The only difficulty seems to be in
the disposition of the Mexicans to in
terpret federal forbearance to mean fear.
The American people would of choice,
bear more from Mexico than from any
other nation, rather than to engage IN
war upon her. This feeling on the part
of the American people and American
government ought not to be abused by
Mexico. But Mexico does not seem to
appreciate the friendly feeling of the
Urited States towards her, and the more
she is allowed to infringe upon the
rights of American citizens the greater
is her disposition to do it. Forbearance
NAV cease to be virtue by and by,
and then Mexico will regret that she
didn't hold in decent respect the friend

THE entire Black Hills country as far
north and west as the Big Horn is now
cleared of hostile Indians. The last band
about 400 Of Tame Deer's tribe-Were
brought into Spotted Tail Agency on the
18th inst. This leaves no hostile In
dams in the United States except the
Mes Perces, under Chief Joseph. The
warriors under Joseph are estimated at
1000, but there are probably more than
that number. Then the hostiles under
Sitting Bull, although in the British Do
minion, are a constant menace to the
United States army. It is possible that
the Commission, now on the way to
treat with Sitting Bull, will effect his
return and the surrender of his ponies
and fire arms, but not probable. Sitting
Bull is just shrewd enough to know that
he can secure a good treaty of peace,
and he will make no other kind Of
treaty. If he will not return, and the
Commission can come to no agreement
with him, it will cause the government
great expense in keeping large military
force on the northern frontier, and then
it will not be possible to prevent raids
from the hostiles under Sitting Bull.
This is at present about the only trouble
some looking feature in the Indian
country. Should the Indian commits
sion succeed in efecting a treaty for
Sitting Bulls return and surrender, the
United States troops would soon force
treaty of peace from Chief Joseph, and
that would practically end Indian wars
in this country The Indians now at
the Agencies are not allowed the use of
improved firearms, and all those away
from the Agencies will be forced to
surrender and give up THEN arms.
Hence if Sitting Bull can be brought
back and made to surrender the arms
of his tribe, Indian war will only be
known in history hereafter in this
country.

THE same uncertainty as to the stu
alton of the contending armies in Europe
still continues. A great deal of very
hard fighting has been going on for a
number Of days, but nothing definite
has come of it. The time for active
campaigning is nearly over for this year
and the end seems as far away as on the
first of last May The Russians have
established sure footing south of the
Danube extending as far south as the
Balkans, but it seems after all to be of
little consequence, as the entire army
of Turkey is fortified on either side of
the Russian position. To clear Bulgaria
of all Turkish forces ought to be the first
work of Russia. She cannot cross the
Balkans until this is done, and there is
no occasion for so doing. Russia ought
to be able to defeat the Turks wherever
found She must do this or give up the
struggle. Thus far Russia has not dem
onstrated her ability to conquer Turkey
and the result of the summers cam
paign has lett the combatants in con-
dition Indicating long war In which
the conqueror will be the nation that
can wear out the strength of its adver-
sary. If the season closes without any
further pronounced victories by either
army, there will be a strong effort made
by other powers to bring about a treaty
of peace The cost of war has already
been sufficient, it would seem, to satisfy
both nations, and it is not improbable
that some terms of peace could be
agreed upon Certainly if Russia does
not make some further progress this fall
she must see that to continue the strug
gle viii be disastrous to her, and Turkey
will, it is believed, have suffered enough
to make it possible to treat with her
more satisf25y orily than it was six
months ago.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1877.

Ii appears that the Mormon Church
(if church is the word) is experiencing
great difficulty in the selection of a new
president There is really a probability
that the feeling on the question may be-
come so intense as to cause a break III
the ranks, which would be very apt to
result in dissolution of the entire organ
ization. 1t would certainly be fortunate
if such should be the case, for the time
is not far away when the government
will be compelled to crush out the po-
lygamous feature of the church at any
rate.
