Pretty Decent.
''tioils.' u

The Chicago Times of Tuesday
morning gives Mr.. Jas. G. Jenkins,
our candidate for Governor, the fol-
lowing editorial notice, which, to
say the least, is pretty decent
one, considering the source from
which it comes:
"Mr. Jenkins, the democratic can
didate for governor Of Wisconsin,
made his opening campaign speech
Mt Madison. On the states-rights
issue he disclaimed the secession and
notification doctrines while affirm
ing the sovereignty of the common
wealths in all matters not denied to
the by them constitution. lie depre-
ciated and condemned violence Of
every kind in elections, and in this
manner antagonZied most Of his party
associates who rarely fail to approve
Of the methods which he processes to
abhor. On the subject of finance his
remarks were brief but pointed, and
in striking contrast with those of the
Milwaukee police justice who led the
ragmuflin movement under the dem
ocratic standard two years ago. Mr..
jenkins speech, printed elsewhere in
this issue of the Times, is Il carefully
prepared exposition of his views on
the questions Of the day. lie is a
gentleman in everyday life, and
plainly carries this virtue with him
in his stumping tour. If one may
Judge from his remarks last evening,
it is evident that the canvass in Wis
consin, will be, on his part ut least, a
courteous and decent one, and that
he will neither he unduly elated nor
seriously cast down by the result,
whatever that may be.

Going TO Crush us.

Mr.. Baker, chairman of the Re
publican State Central Committee,
has issued an address, in which he
calls upon every Republican to
come out and vote on election day.
He says that full vote of the
party is not really needed to insure
victory, but wants it i'll order that
the Democratic party may be
crushed out OF existence.
Well, we have been defeated by
the Republicans, and we have, by
discussions, defeated ourselves, but
we have never yet been crushed.
And, if what Mr.. Baker so
much desires does really come to
pass, it will be a change, at any
rate, as the Grecnbackers used to
say last year. But it isn't the gen.
eral impression that the Democratic
party is composed of stuff that is
very easily crushed. And even if
the material was not so very hard,
it would be considerable of an UNI
dertaking to attempt to crush the
whole party out Of existence,
because there is a good deal of it.
1t is n work which the Republicans
were unable TO accomplish when
their party was at the height of its
power, and controlled every branch
Of the national government, az well
as nearly all Of the state govern
ments. And surely their progeny,
tho stalwarts, in their present
deplorable condition-controlling
only n few Of the state governments,
and having no hold on the national
government but what they owe to
an erroneous decision Of the cleo
toral commission-can hope to ac-
complish such feat.
The truth is, the Republican
party in this State stands q very
good show of being defeated, on
account Of tho superiority of the
Democratic ticket. And Mr.. Baker
knows it, il he knows enough to be
chairman of state central COM
mittcc. But he INDUCES in this
cxtravagant Dragging, because he
thinks if that weak kneed members
of his party are made to believe
that they arc sure to enjoy another
victory they will be more likely to
come out and vote than they would
be if he depended on their sense Of
duty TO bolster up rotten old
party that IL totterlng ana VIII not
stand much longer.
Right here let us say word to
our Republican brethren for whom
the address referred to is especially
intended. The radical structure is
about to tumble. And, if you take
our advice, and pay no attention to
that man, Baker, you will stand
from under lfyou don't you will
be covered up in the rubbish-and
poor rubbish il will be Mt that.
How the attempt to crush lis out
of existence will succeed, we will be
better able to tell about this time
next month.

NORTHERN DIsTRiCT--MR. RICHARD
KENNEDY.

NORTHERN DIsTRICT-MR. RICHARD
KENNEDY.
At the Northern Assembly Dis
trict Convention, held in Dodgevillc
on. Thursday last, Mr.. Richard Ken
ncdy, of Highland, was nominated
as candidate for Member of Assem-
bly,. No better nomination could
have been made. Mr.. Kennedy is
known throughout the district as n
man of unblemished reputation
his character is unimpcachnble.
His nomination has added strength
to the Democratic ticket.
The selection Of Mr.. Kennedy as
q candidate for Member of Assem-
bly, il in keeping with the course
pursued this year by the Demo
cratic party in making nominations
for State and Legislative offices.
Ollice-scekers generally have been
given the go-by, and men of integ-
rity and ability have been chosen.
There is not man on the State
ticket who sought to be nominated;
neither is there a man upon it Of
whom the Democrats of Wisconsin
has not reason to feel proud. And
our candidate for State Senator,
Hon. Robert Wilson is the embodi-
ment Of Democratic principles and
practices. The nomination of Mr..
Kennedy, as we have said, is IN
keeping with tho course marked
out by the Democratic party-is
but the just recognition Of the
ability and worth Of n modest and
unassuming man. The people of
the Northern district cannot do
better than elect him to take care
Of their interests Mt Madison during
tho coming winter. He is man
of the people, and would as care
fully guard the interests Of the
people MS his own. No party rings
or cliques could count on receiving
support from him. He has been n
lifelong consistent Democrat and
has faithfully worked for the tri-
umph of Democratic principles. If
the people of tho Northern district
are alive to the Importance of
choosing representative who will
conscientiously guard their inter
ests they will vote and work for the
election of Richard Kennedy-than
whom no more honorable man can
be found in the county.
SOUTHERN DISTINCT. Il. HusE.
What we have said of Mr.. Ken
nedy is alike true Of the Democratic
candidate for Member Of Assembly
for the Southern district, with the
exception that ho is not SO widely
known rs Mr.. Kennedy. Ho is 4
son of old Squire Huse of the town
of Miillin, and is very popular
young man. He he has been re-
peatedly elected town treasurer in
a strong Republican town, and he
enjoys the confidence and esteem
of his neighbors in high degree
Mr.. Huse has been for several years
n faithful representative of his town
in the Democratic county conven-
tions. He is u man whom the
Democratic party should delight to
honor, and if elected to the office
for which he is a candidate, he will
reflect credit on his constituents.
We believe that he is n fit man to
represent lis III the legislature.
Democrats in the district should

The Longest Tunnel in the World.


The opening of the first railway is spoken of
as memorable event, but every one seems
to forget that centuries before this occurred
loads were transported on rails in mines, and
the fact is equally overlooked in regarding
the piercing of whole mountains, such as
Mont Gents and Saint-Gothard, that similar
works had been effected ages ago in mines
on a far larger scale. The long
est subterranean construction of this
kind Is to be found in the mines of Freyberg,
In the kingdom of Saxony. Already, at the
end of the year 1885, the galleries had at
kilometres. At the same time, the works,
commenced at the end of the twelfth CEN
fury, had reached such depth that any
further descent was found to be imprac-
ticable. From 1924 to 1884 they had pro
duced ,504, 5Sl mares, Il franc 25 confines
eachl. in silver alone of a value OF
200. 100000 thalers nearly. Consequently
This was to lead from the village of
Rothschenberg to q distance OF 1882
metres; its cost was estimated at 800. 600
thalers Is francs rs centlmes each, and %
years were calculated as the time necessary
to cary out the undertaking. The work was
completed year ago, and Its execution had
occupied 80 years, and necessitated an ex-
penditure of 7, 1856, 697 mares. The considera-
BILE increase on the original estimates was
caused by the rock to be pierced turning
out much harder than had been ex-
pected, and the fact that the
quantity OF water yielded by the
mountain was far larger than had
been calculated upon. Other circumstances
help to swell the costs; the rise in wages
and the prices of materials greatly augment
ed the expenditures. and the delay in the
execution increased the general costs and
those of superintendence and administra
ton. Moreover, the gallery had become
longer than was originally intended. 1t rises
generally speaking, at gradient of 8 in
| 1000. Including the secondary galleries
| the shaft OF Rothschoenberg has now an ex
tent of tunneling of 1900 metres, which
will soon reach $1,000 metres. or nearly 8:
miles. This length far surpasses any railway
| tunnel in the world.
