PLATFORM AND RESOLUTIONS OF THE CITIZENS
PARTY OF oRMSBY COUNTY.
We, the citizens of Ormsby County, adopt
the following as the platform on which, with
out distinction of party, we propose to mako
the ensuing canvass.
1st.-We are opposed to any repeal, mod
ifcation or change of the law taxing the net
proceeds of the mines.
2nd. We arraign the transcontinental
railroads for their IN ust and oppressive dis
ordinations i'll the matter of freights and
fares to and between points in this State, and
we demand prompt legislation by Congress
and the State Legislature fox the correction Of
those abuses.
3rd-That the General Government should
Immediately take such steps as to absolutely
stop the further Immigration of Aslatlcs TO our
country; and that such just and peaceful
measures should be adopted may be apprO-
pirate and necessary TO induce those already
among us to quit our shores at the earliest
practical moment
4th.-We repudiate and denounce the doc
trine that any public officer may disregard and
ignore the pledges made to his constituents
and on the faith of which he was elected and
declare that if such practice be tolerated it
will result i'll the destruction of representative
democratic government; and we declare that
no power exists which can relieve officials from
pledges made to the people previous to their
election.
5th.-That we view it'll alarm the increas-
ing and unceasing attempts of the moneysd
powers of the Pacific States to control the eisc-
tions and shape the legislation OF said States,
that the principle and practice are fraught
with danger TO our Republican government,
and should be frowned down and resisted by
every individual who has at heart she welfare
Of American institutions and the freedom of
the masses
9th. -Eesoirrd That the stock brokerage
business should be regulated by law and tho
security of the people be protected by proper
legislative enactment.

And there are your grab bags--Jour
grab-pags! l tell you there is to much of
this. Your fairs and your bazars won't
do, and your voting, your casting OF bal
lots for the most popular man or the
most popular woman, just helping along
their vanity. I tell you it grieves the spir-
it, it offends God. They've got so far now
that for twenty-five cents young men can
come in and kiss the handsomest woman
in the room. Think of his Look at the
church lotteries going on in New work
Before God | would rather preach in any
barn Or the most miserable howell on earth,
than within the walls of church paid for

a gambling den when you can have a
game of grab with a lady for partner?"
Of church choirs which are not composed
of Christians he disapproves in the same
emphatic way: II tell you it's about time
you stopped hiring ungodly men and un-
godly women TO sing in your church
choirs, just because they happen to have
good voices You smile. tell you it's
no smiling matter. You ought to blush
with shame; that's what you ought to do.

Fond du Lac Special to Milwaukee Sentinel
Gen. John Mcdonald appeared in County
Judge Perkins court this morning in the
case of the State of Wisconsin against him
self, for an assault with intent to do bodily
harm upon Mr.. w. c. Williams, the Milwau-
kee lawyer who is retained in the celebrated
divorce suit of Mcdonald VS.. Mcdonald
The general waived examination, and by
consent of his own counsel, Col w. w. D.
Turner, of Ripon, was held to bail to the
circuit court in $1,000 Col. G. X. Pier.
vice president of the Fond du Lac Savings
fbank, became joint surety with the defend
ant. In the afternoon at 3 o'clock the
general appeared before Police JUS
tice Eastman to answer to demand for
peace warrant by MIR. Williams, who in his
complaint stated that he considered his life
in danger. Col. ellison, district attorney, in
behalf of the State, moved discontinuance
of the action, stating in open court that Mr..
Williams was able to protect himself. The
motion was granted and Gen. Mcdonald and
Jere Doobs went to Oshkosh to witness the
walking match. Mrs. La Mothe, the "Sylph'',
your correspondent is informed by her at
torney, Col. Turner, of Ripon. has instruct
ed him to bring suit in her name against
every newspaper in Wisconsin,, and some
outside of the State which had mentioned
her name in any connection which reflects
on her personal character. I understood
the colonel, who has been here to-day, to
say that he was already drawing up
papers in the cases. Among other news
papers who aim to give the news but who are
to be prosecuted for it, are the Milwaukee
Sentinel, the Fond du Lac Commonwealth,
the Fond du Lac Journal, and the Ripon
Commonwealth. The colonel informs me
that if all these newspapers which have ever
had anything to say about Mrs. LaMothe
will take it back and swear they never said
it she will discontinue. Otherwise there will
be millions in it for her if she collects from
$4,000 to $4,000 each from them, graded
according to their financial capacity.
In the divorce suit the colonel stands
aloof as q sort of third party (greenback for
instance), representing Mrs. LaMothe's
greenbacks. But am assured on personal
authority that if it had not been for the IN
termeddling of third parties, not counting
LaMothe as one, Gen. Mcdonald and his
wife would have never experienced the
tropble which has brought them so unfor-
tunately into domestic notoriety, and would
be living together as man and wife to-day.

If that distinguished citizen of Phila-

~hen the thought Of robbing the corpor-
alton CT which he was President, first
entered his mind, where he was gold to

temptor and stuck to the paths of homes
ty. But no such glimpse of the future
was vouchsafed him, and Morton dallies
with the thought untilit became an acted
crime. Years passed, the crime was still
undiscovered. Perhaps he almost per-
suaded himself that he would never be
found out. Criminals Of his stamp often
develope an extraordinary capacity for
self-delusion on that point. Now he goes
