moreover, that resumption is rea]ity,-a
thing he declared two years ago IN his address
to the people Of Wisconsin would be an utter
impossibility, or, if effected at all, it would
breed only ruin, bankruptcy, and general
disaster to the business men of the country.
Now that he sees his mistake, it is not sur
prising he should abandon the false and per-
nicious doctrines of fatdsm, and, like Col.
GOODWIN, accept thesa and logical financial
measures Of the Republican party.

SHALL CHICAGO BE BURNED AGAIN7
The direct losses from the Chicago fire Of
1871 have been variously estimated from
$150, 1000, 900 to 5000, 600, 900. Ths indirect
losses would increase this estimate. Many
insurance companies were forced into bank
ruptcy, and large amount of capital thus
employed, beside that actually exhausted in
payment Of losses, was withdrawn Some
business houses were so much embarrassed
that they were not able to sustain the subse-
quent pressure OF the panic, and in the end
were compelled to wind up their affairs OF
were forced into bankruptcy. Property
owners rebuilt at extravagnnt prices for labor
aud material, which resulted from the rush
of building for the two or three years sue
ceeding the fire.: This extra cost made the
depreciation in property values after the
panic all the harder to bear, and many men
who were rich in property q few years ago
were thus impoverished. The marvellous in
crease III the business of Chicago alone en-
abled the community to sustain these various
losses and still tide over the hard times with
less disaster than was visited upon most
other large cities in the country. It is only
during thepresent year that the conviction has
bean reached TINT the losses from the fire Of
1871 have been settled up, and that a nav
era Of savings and accumulations has begun.
And it is at this important turning point that
set Of irresponsible and la#less ward bum
mers, some Of whom are in the Council and
more Of whom are mare hangers-on at the
Oity-Hall, deliberately propose to expose the
city to another confagration mora disastrous
than that of 1871,- for another similar fire

We ventured the prediction the other day
that the Fiat~G7eenback party Of Wisconsin
would be considerably demoraiized by the
emphatic reputation Of the Watertown plat
form by Col. GEORGE, B. GOODWIN, their
nominee for Attorney-General That this
prophecy was well grounded, additional facts
that have since come to our knowledge
through private sources amply demonstrate.
It is reported upon good authority that tho
Hon. E. ?. AL11s, who was the candidate of
that party for Governor two years ago,
openly denounces the PoMEno1-Fat platform
put forth at Watertown, and there is strong
grounds for belief that he will now come
back to his first lore, tho Republican party,
and cordially support that ticket at the
polls. Mr.: A1nrs is large iron manufac-

The sum total Of the deaths by the yellow
fever scourge in Memphis during the week
just closed was 46. The number of cases
was 139. A somewhat singular circumstance
is that the proportion of stricken is greater
among the blacks than the whites, while the
reverse is true of the fatal results.

Secretary ErAnrs' circular to foreign Gov
ernments On the Mormon question seems to
have been misunderstood By many of our
Eastern contemporaries. The State Depart
ment does not request the foreign Powers to
modest any person protesting any particular
religion; but does demand under henty
obligations that they shall use their author
ity to prevent the emigration of those who
propose coming to the United States for the
arowed purpose of committing polygamy,
which under our laws is crime. This cir
cular is only the forerunner OF active meas
ures now on foot to put summary ending
to the second 'tsum total of all vi1lainies.n

A good many marriageable young ladies
and host Of managing mammas can draw,
wholesome lesson, if they will, from the
uncomfortable and pitiful condition in which
Mrs. KATE SpRAauE finds herself and family
placed at the present moment Her con-
spicuous position in society from her youth
up to this date has been the envy of many
of her aoquaintances, the pride Of her
friends, and no doubt melted many jealous
pang in the breasts Of other fair ladies less
favored by fortune than herself. She was
born when her honored and lamented father,
the late Chief-Justce of ihe'United States,
was the most prominent lawyer in Cincin-
natl; and as she grew to womanhood Mr..
CHASE WIS twice elected Governor Of Ohio;
for over twelve years he was lead
ing member Of the Senate Of the
United States; afterwards member
Of Mr., LNco1N's Cabinet; and at last
dying in the Office that had been graced and
honored by the llustrious names Of MAR
SHALL and STORY. With such an eminent
sire and with such glittering environmentau all
through the period when her character was
forming, it is not strange that she grew up
to bea brilliant and dashing woman, and that
she WAS disposed at times to set the rules Of
conventional propriety at defiance. Nor is
it to be wondered at that, when this f1attered
and spoiled young lady looked about her for
husband, she should be prompt to form an
alliance with the man whose wealth, influence,
and worldly prospects we're such as to en-
able her to continue to live in the atmosphere
she had always breathed, and without insti-
,uting very rigid examination in regard to
the personal fitness Of the two con-
tracing parties, or the ability to
render each other happy in the
marriage relation. It WAS notoriously
true, and much talked about at the time in
Washington society, where she was reign
ing queen, that KATE CHASE t'sbooped to
conquer" aud married man for his money
aud not because she cared fig for him.
True, Governor, and Senator, and General
SPnAauE belonged to very rich family, and
he was rep uted to be one Of 1.-The wenlthiest
men in the United States at the time OF Ills
marriage; but, beyond his ducats, he did
rot possess the intelligence, the personal
magnetism, nor any of.the nameless fascina-
tions Of mien and manner that go to make
up the man whom KATE CHASE could love with
her whole heart. Her marriage was one Of
convenience, and the outcome is precisely
what might have been expected Gov.
SpRAGuE's habits Of life closely resembled
the habits Of nearly every young man who
is so unfortunate as to inherit great wealth,
and the woman who is to-day cursing the
hated bonds that bind her to him knew it as
we'll on the day Of their marriage as she does
DOW. Gov. SrRAauE's great wealth took
wings and suddenly few away; his. summer
friends took wings, too, like summer birds,
and few off after his riches, leaving little
behind except blighted faith, broken VOWS,
blasted names, q ruined home, and dead
love, from the door Of whose sepulchre no
willing hand will ever roll away the stone.

Farmers are getting one dollar per

the rail road.
The gentlemanly 2. J. Hauch, OF
Grimm's Station, does more business in
the dry goods and grocery line than any
other store keeper in the county outside
the city of Manitowoc.
The famous running mare, Lady Muir
ply, belonging to Jere Murphy of this

money at the Oshkosh races on the 18th.
The late fair of the Mapitowoc County
Agricultural Society, held at Clark S
| Mills, was more successful in financial
point of view than any other that has
been held there yet. The officers of the
association are to be commended for their
energetic efforts in establishing q reputa-
ton for the society, that is second to
none in the state.
Nearly every farmer Of this vicinity
has sown winter wheat this fall, for the
reason that they think it will escape the
ravages of the chinch bug. Cato farmers
have reason to be afraid of the depreda-
tons of this insect, as it dbl consider
able damage TO them the past season.
Another of our Cato girls gone. Mr..

from the church, the festivities wound up
with jolly time in the evening. Every

pleasure and happiness that can be meas

There is political "boom" of i'm
mense proportion secretly growing in a
remote corner of Maple Grove, that for
adroitness and manipulation of delegates
will 'sknock the spots off the Mitchell
''boom." 1t is now known for q certain
ty that Maple Grove and Franklin will
only have one set of delegates each this
year. The only town there is any dam
ger of having two sets from is Rockland,
there are three or four local politicians in
| that town who swear that the interests OF
their country demand their attendance as
delegates at the county convention, and
as the town sends only one delegate, it
will be impossible to send ill those gent
lemen there in that capacity; to obviate
the difficulty we hereby propose that the
democratic county committee meet, and
pass resolution allowing the town of
Rockland one delegate for every fifteen
democratic votes, this will kind of square
things up and create a good feeling all
around, especially in Rockland, where
wire-puIlers of such political prominence
and patriotic motives should have good
hash dished up to them.

THE COUNTY FAIR.

The county fair closed on Thursday of
last week. There was quite a large
crowd present. On that day the prizes
were awarded; the annual address was
delivered by Hon. John Carey, and there
were numerous trotting and running
races. Interest centered principally on
Pinery Boy and Billey Barr. The
horses are both fast, well trained and
remarkably evenly matched. The best
time made was one mile in 2:36, which
is unusually good for a county fair.
The running RAJ 5 wero participated in
by excellent horses, -one making mile
in 1.45.
The attendance on Friday was SO good
that the society viii be able to pay all
expenses. The weather was very favora
bic and people were present from all
parts of the county. The encouragement
thus given cannot fail to add to the pros
per1ty of the association aud will enable
them to add to the list and size of prem,

concerned. In James Boss Patent Gold Watch
Cases, this waste OF precious metal is overcome

from One-third 10 one half of the usual cost of
solid cases. This process Is of the most simple
nature, as follows: plate OF nickel composition

two plates OF solid gold soldered one on each
side. The three arc then passed between polish
ed steel rollers, and the result is strip Of heavy
plated composition, from which the cases.

by suitable dies and formers. The gold in these
