CARPENTER.

The Chronicle can with consistency
advise democratic legislators to support
only the nominee of democratic caucus
and also advocate the nomination of an
undoubted democrat, as during the fall
campaign it disapproved of the endorse
ment of greenback candidates by dem
ocrats. Some other democratic papers
that now advocate the strictest adherence
to straight party nominations are forget
full of their course during the late cam
palgn. Ii a democratic caucus is held
and nomination made, the PILOT
would certainly counsel unani nifty in the
support of the nominee. But it cannot
result in anything more substantial than
a mere form, which may aid in the cleo
ton of men less acceptable to the people
of the state and to the democratic party.
We have a sincere admiration for Car
penter's ability and so, we are satisfied
has the editor of the Chronicle. Car
penter has no more chance to be nomin-
ated by the republican caucus than a
democratic nominee has of being elected.
His republican friends are not going to
fight against hope and unless they have
expectations of support from democratic
Legislators, they will support Howe or
Reyes as a second choice. 1t is quite
possible that democratic Legislators can,
by willingness to support Carpenter in
the event of their votes being sufficient
together with his republican supporters
to elect him, withhold sufficient num-
Der of republican votes from Howe or
Reyes to prevent the election of either.
Viewed as party measure aside from
the valuable service done the state in
choosing a senator of acknowledged
ability, will not the democrats prevent
the republicans from electing a man
whose strongest recommends ton is that
his devotion to party is unquestioned2
Republicans are seemingly anxious to
reward party allegiance rather than rec
ognize worth. Is it not the duty of
democrats in the interest of political
purity and its interest as an opposing
party to prevent this? Carpenter made
himself odious to the republicans by act
ing as Tilden's counsel. In this matter
he was no more deserving of praise from
the democrats than of censure from the
republicans as he acted simply in the
course of his profession as a lawyer.
But if the republicans attack him for it
are not the democrats under obligations
to defend him? Reyes is a republican
of the stamp which the Chronicle admits
it would be wise to defeat by democratic
support of Carpenter. The Chronicle
certainly knows that Reyes is the choice
of a majority of the republicans and will
without much doubt receive the republi-
can nomination. Now wherein does the
Chronicles position differ from that of
the PILOT? In the defeat OF Keyes or of
Howe we see victory over intense big
oted republicanism. We see advocates
of the spOils system rebuked and a re-
fusal on the part of the chosen repre-
sentatives of the people to offer the
highest office in their gift in return for
important service done the republican
party. We would infinitely prefer a
democrat to Mr. Carpenter. But why
should we waste effort in straining after
the impossible, when good work may be
done by overcoming little prejudice?

CALEB CUSHING died at his home in
Newburyport, Mass. on Thursday night
last. Cushing was man who figured
auite prominently in the politics of the
country. he was si- times q member of
the Massachusetts, legislature twice ii
member of congress, a Colonel of
regiment in the Mexican war, a Judge of
the supreme court Of Massachusetts and
attorney general of the United States.
He was minister to Spain and a commits
sloner to the empire of China. He was
nominated as Secretary of the Treasury
and rs Chief Justice CT the United States
but was rejected by the senate for the
former and had his name withdrawn in
the latter case as a confirmation by the
senate was hopeless. Cushing was at
one time an intense democrat and sup
ported Breckenridge for the presidency
against Lincoln and Douglas. He lack
ed political integrity sac, vas sort of

possessed of considerable literary ability
and one who will not be greatly missed,

A CORRESPONDENT of the Chicago
Times has been good enough to attribute
the P1LoTs support Of Matt. Carpenter
to the influence of Senator Rankin.
When it is known that Senator Rankin
is decidedly opposed to any union with
the republicans unless it be to help in
electing a straight democrat to the SEN
ate, the absurdity of ''the special" is
apparent. Mr. Rankin does not dictate
the course of the PILor and does not try
to, Mr. Rankin is determined to use his
influence to let the republicans fight out
the senatorial question in their own
camp.

The severe cold spell with which we
have Leen visited has extended over all
parts OF tie United States, the tempera-
ture having fallen below the freezing
point in Louisiana and Florida 1t Is
very rarely that the tropical state of
Florida is visited by frost and Il IS feared
that the orange crops in that state and
California will suffer. During the
extremely cold weather of 1864, though
the mercury went considerably below
zero at st. Louis, it failed to reach the
freezing point at New Orleans. Hoar
frost formed in many places which here,
tofore were never visited by it, and de-
scending snow flakes caused as much
alarm among the negroes as the turning
of water into glass" caused among the
Arabs. The Polar wave managed to
invade the whole country and reached
the Gulf of Mexico before its tempera-
ture rose above the freezing point.

10. RANKIN can't travel three miles
outside the city of Manitowoc but rumors
will be circulated throughout the state
that he is Matching out some gunpowder
plots to blow up the republican legisla-
ture. He attended wedding at Depere,
lately, and dark hints were thrown out
that he was forming an alliance defensive
and offensive with some Indian chief at
Green Bay. 10 must be abolished or
the republican majority of is must DO
sentinel duty during the long session
now begun.

JUDGE BLoDGETT has very justly de.
manded an investigation of his conduct
by the House of Representatives. The
gentlemen who have accused him of cor
ruption, have acted very strangely in
allowing reports derogatory to the Off
cial integrity of Judge Blodgett to cir
culate without making public the charges.
If those are simply trivial they have
done Judge Blodgett an injury which
they cannot repair.

Popular Science.

Our citizens who are fond of the
study of popular science will have a
fine opport unity to crafty their taste
by attending the course of lectures by
Prof. Quinton, announced for this
month at the new Lecture Room in the
Opera House. Prof. Quinton's lecture
before the teachers at the High school
was very interesting, and we can say
of our own knowledge that his lectures
may be easily understood and thorough
ly enjoyed by any intelligent person
although they may not be particularly
well posted in the technicalities OF
science.
Mr.. Stens should be encouraged in
his efforts in this direction.
