The Ofice-Seeking Nuisance.

It is clear that the evil of office
seeking is growing one. Since
there must be offices to fill, and since
hope springs eternal, it follows that
mnltitudes of people will persist in
hunting for places, and in applying
for them long after the places are all
occupied. The multiplication of off
ces has only served to increase the
| seekers of office to an abnormal de-
gree. 1t is bad sign Of the times
that so many people want to live on
other people. For an office seeker
usually expects to get something for
| nothing. He wants sinecure, or, if
he has any notion of work, it rises no
higher than that Of Special Agent
Blank, who lately resented being or
dered out into the West, as he was
confident that he had been appointed
to build up an Administration party
in his own State. An army of office
seekers, like an army of tramps, is an
indication of certain loss of manly
vigor. Poverty and laziness drive
many men into the highways, where
they tramp so long that they can
never again work for a living. A
man once driven into the ranks of the
office-seekcrs, with difficulty finds his
way out again. If he holds office for
time, he is in danger of being per-
manentIy disabled. During the rest
of his natural life he hunts for an of.
fee, except while he holds an-office.
BY and by pressure for official ap-
pointments will decrease. In the ma
ture of things, such high tide can
not always be maintained at Wash
ington. But though the freshet may
cease, the current will continue to
flow. The main business of the Pres.
ident of the United States will be to
hear applications for office. From 10
o'clock in the morning until 3 or 4
o'clock in the afternoon, the curious
visitor at the White House will see
the anti-rooms filled with people
waiting their turn to apply for posi-.
ton. They have their papers well
thumbed, and representing a great
variety of "Infuence;" and they are
all determined to see the President
about the particular place which they
want. Most of these people have
been to the Cabinet officer in whose
department lies the object of their
desires. They have been told that
their application was useless. They
have reserved the President as their
last resort. As they have failed in
the first instance, they are more i'm
Fortunate now.
Unless the highest Office in the Re-
public is to be permanently converted
into laborious clerkship, the present
system of making appointments must
be radically charged. The Presi>
dent, of course, will control the APP
pointments which are prominently to
give character to his Administration
But the great bulk of the Executive
patronage ought to be in the hands
of the heads of the executive depart
ments. Certainly it is not beyond
the ingenuity of man to devise sys-
tenn which shall prevent office-seeking
from becoming permanent nuisance.

Teachers Institute.

The Teachers Institute for Grant coun
will be held in Platteville, beginning Angus
18th, 1877, and continuing two weeks. Prof
Beck, of the Platteville State Normal Sehoo'
will have charge of the Institute, assisted by
the County Superintendent and Others State
Superintendent Soaring has promised to be
present at some time during the Institute and
viii deliver an address in the evening, due
notice will be given hereafter when the time
has been definitely determined.
Books will be furnished free to those who
attend. but any text books that teachers may
have should be brought for reference.
The number of days attendance of each
tea, er at the Institute will be placed on his
or her certificate, and school officers aciU please
notice particularly this item on tie certificates of
those sOho apply to them to teach
Board can be obtained in private families at
from IS 90 to $3.50 per week.
A Teachers examination will be held during
the two Saturdays of the Institute. The ques-
tions for which win be to quite an extent
drawn from top les discussed at the Institute.
| am glad to notice an increasing interest
manifested in these Institutes on the part of
teachers and friends Of education generally. /
also notice that there is, with scarcely an ex-
ception, marked improvement IN the schools
of those who have attended them l hope
that none but the most imperative reasons will
prevent any of those who hope to teach dur.
ing the coming school year from attending at
this time.

Which is True ?

Ed l. c. Welcome in the History of the

Mr. Hitchcock says that vision of Mrs. f.

the reader can see that Christ has shpt the

But We read that "The dragon was wroth

He knows no such thing as friend
and to make point in the market
would sell out bis grandmother. He
was not even true TO his old partner,
Fisk, and no man on the board who
has ever done business with him, has
escaped, provided 1t was for his in
terost to play him false.
The Charter Oak.
The turn OF the lido in life insui
anca has come. The insurance com.
panies Of Hartford, and the promin-
ent cinzenp, determined that the old
Charter Oak with its splendid record
should not go down, and they rallied
to save 1t. Marshall Jewell ex-Post.
Master General, and one Of the most
eminent manufacturers of Hartford,
has accepted the presidency, and a
board of men of similar capacity and
character second him. The old com
pany will go on, and pay dollar for
dollar. IL is well, for the ruin of the
company was making trouble every
where. The unnumbered thousands
who have the hopes of families based
upon life insurance, want to have
some assurance that their helpless
heirs will get what they contracted
for. The weak companies are about
all played ont now, and those re-
naming, with perhaps one or two
exceptions, may be considered sound.
Beer.
We have had no famine-food has
been plenty since the railroad disturb
ance, but there has been drouth in
beer. The beer made in the city is
very bad, and the better class OF peo-
pie get their supplies entirely from
the west. 1t comes on in refrigerator
cars, and there is never large stock
on hand. The railroad troubles in
terfered with transportation, and
there has been a drouth. The beer
drinkers go up and down athirst, and
they mourn for their favorite bever-
ages, and will not be comforted be-
cause they are not. There are fifty
carloads of beer day, from Toledo,
Milwaukee and Cincinnati. consumed
in this city, and you can imagine the
CONSERVATION when the thirsty soul
is informed that it is out. The first
carload since the strike came in yes
terday, and it was made the occasion
of a jubilee. The western brewers
are building ice-houses here now in
which to store their supplies, SO that
this viii not occur again.
The Weather
is cooIor, and business has revived
perceptibly. There is every indica-
ton of a good falls business.

Gen. Rusk for Chairman.

The Richland County Observer
gives apt and strong expression in ia.
yor of Gen. Rusk for the Chairman.
ship of the Republican State Com
mittee, thus:
1.-The Grant County Herald is responsible for
come good suggestions. Latest, and among
the best is that of Gen. ]. NJ. Rusk for Chair
man of the Republican State Central Commit
tee. Gen Rusk would fill the Jeffersonian re-
1uirements-he is honest he is capable. With
somew hat extended acquaintance
smOng the politicians of the State, we do not
call TO mind gentleman who would better
fill the whole bill. He Is active, energetic sa
gacious aud popular. As the executive Off
Ger OF the Republican party he would contrib
ute more to its success this fall than any other
man yet suggested. While he would bring to
the discharge of the duties OF the position
those qualifications go much admired in Mr..
Keyes, he would divest the leadership of the
party of that which Is Objectionable in its
present management, and successfully harmon
iEe all elements and be thereby enabled 10 Or
ganixe for a complete victory.
From the present outlook, the Republican
State Convention will commit serious blum
der if it does not select Gen. Rusk for Chair
man of the Central Committee"
Aud the Fdedreldndet and Emf
granten, after repeating what the
HERALD said, concludes with these
words:
1--WE agree fully with the Herald and believe
that Hon. j. N. Rusk is the best man the State
Convention could elect TO the Craftsmanship OF

A Brief Reply.

Let US hear the conclusion of the whole
natter Fear God, and keep his command
ments: for this is the whole duty of man
For God shall bring every work into judg
ment, with every secret thing, whether it be
good, or whether it be evil "Eccl. II :l3. ID
And GOO declares that, as many as have
sinned in the law shall be judged by the law
For not the hearers of the law are just before
God, but the doors of the law shall be justified
Rom. g. 1918.
Because they have seduoed my people, say.
ing, Peace; and there was no peace; and one
built up wall, and, 10, others daubed il
with lntempered mortar. Ez. IL; 10.
| showed last week that the Catholic church
built up the Sunday wall; and we had the
privilege OF seeing in the same paper how
others daub it with untempered mortar; that
is mans assertions and interpretations oil
scripture, by which they try to make us be-
lieve that Sunday is the christian Sabbath.
And yet they fail to give US one plain text
that shows that any person ever kept it.
While God says the women kept the day be-
fore Sunday according to the commandment,
Luke, 90; Sc. And Paul in A. D. 81, worked
at tent making and preached every Sabbath
which he continued year and six months.
| Acts Is: Il Which makes seventy. six
Sabbaths that Paul kept And in Acts 207
III we have the narration of meeting held
on the evening of the first day of the week,
which would be on what is now called Satur~
day evening. Prof Hacket, first day COM
mentator comments on this text thus: "The
Jews reckoned the day from evening to morn
ing and on that principle the evening of the
first day of the week would be our Saturday
evening-and so Paul resumed his journey OH
Sunday morning. documentary on Acts.P P.
1923, $50
So Paul travelled about nineteen miles on
Sunday morning, and then entered the ship on
his way to Jerusalem. Acts 90: 1917
And this is the only account of religious
meeting being held on the first day of the
week, and this was in the night of that day,
and Paul travelled during the light part of it.
This is the Apostolic example we have for
Sunday keeping.
No wonder then that Mr.. Brdnson said in
his article of last week that he did not expect
to obtain the offered reward How could be
as he offered nothing but his assertions as
proof for Sunday. "Circumstantial evidence
was not what the reward was offered for; but
one plain text from the Bible.
He says, redemption was finished on the
| first day of the week when Christ arose; but
Paul thought differently, and said "Grievc
| not the Holy Spirit Of God, whereby we are
sealed unto the day of redemption. Eph. 4;30.
And Christ said concerning the signs of his
second coming, When ye see these things
| then know that your redemption drawetf
nigh Luke 81: IS. By this we see that Mr.
| b. is more than eighteen hundred years in adj
vance with his Sunday institution to comment
crate redemption. But how wonderfully Gods
word is now being fulfilled.
| They shall turn away their ears from the
truth, and be turned unto fables. Tim. 4: 4

For Lieut.. /. Governor.

The leading Scandinavian paper Of
Wisconsin is the Faedrelandet ana
Emigranten. A short time since II
proposed the name of Mr.. Halle
Steensland for the position OF Lieuten-
ant Governor. That call has been re-
sponded to in different parts of the
State and July 9th the names OF Il
l76 persons, living in thirty-two dit
ferent counties, were published as sig
natures to the call. Another promi-
nent candidate is ex-senator j. A.
Johnson, of Madison, and him the
Fdedre1andet refuses to support for
election because of his prominent and
wrong position on the school book
question. If it be conceded that the
Scandinavians are to have man on
the ticket it would be well to let them
choose for themselves, and it appears
to US they have indicated their choice
with great emphasis.
