,Z4CH. CHANDLER,

Line telegraph brings the startling lntelll-
genoe that Senator Zachariah Chandler, of
Michigan, was found dead in bed at Chicago
yesterday morning. On the previous evening
he had addressed a large audience at McCor-
mick Hall on the political issues of the last
decade, and retired late in the evening in
apparent good health. The dread messen-
ger summoned him in the stiffness of the
night and the solitude of his chamber, and
he passed away to render an account of his
stewardship.
Born in New Hampshire in 1918, he early
emigrated to the West, taking up his abode
/ in Detroit and engaging in commercial pur-
politics., and after serving term as mayor
of the city was chosen to the United States
Senate in 1851 as the successor of Lewis
Cass. Twice subsequently he was re-
elected, but suffered defeat in 1875
by a combination of all the
elements of the opposition in favor of Judge
Christianoy. When that gentleman resigned
his seat to accept the Peruvian mission, SEN
ator Chandler succeeded him, and his term
would have expired on the Sd of March,
1881.
Socially MIR. Chandler was genial, open
hearted and free from all malice. Politically
he was the bitterest of partisans, uncharita-
bic, malignant, belching forth hate and fury
at his opponents. Though he could forgive
social sins, he had no. forgiveness to waste
upon those with whom he differed political
~. During the war his enmity towards the
South was most pronounced, and in the SEN
| ate chamber he urged the most extreme
measures to accomplish the tsubjugation OF
the confederates. Since the war he was the
ablest advocate Gin the party of policy OF
repression. His voice and his vote
were always on the side Of
a military government for what he
chose to term the conquered terri.
tory. He distrusted all professions from
the Southern people, but insisted that they
were rebels by nature, and should be met by
policy of repression. His hatred of the
South he extended to the Democracy of the
North, and a "ittle blood-letting'' woulc
have done his heart good if applied to tht
twin objects Of his dislike. His politica
creed was hate. He had no charity fol
! those who differed with him, but persisted ar
| to the last moment of his life in the en-
| deayor to enk1ndle anew the fires of section
al strife, for what purpose only deity car
| tell.
But death has claimed the politician fol
his own. He had his virtues and his vices. I
| is perhaps better for the country that hs
| has gone. The present is not the time tc
preach tho gospel of hate. Reconciliation
| between the North and the South woulc
have been accomplished long ago but for the
| efforts at estrangement of Zach. Chandler
and few of his ilk. He has been the CHIEF
instrument for the creation of ill-feeling be-
tween the sections. Let US hope that the
cause Of tho man who now lies dead will moi
be taken up by the living, bat that ar
earnest effort will be made to harmonic the
whole country, SO that the next generation
shall know neither South nor North, East
nor West.

We are surprised that even in partisan strife
he should have any opposition. It is a

candidate presented to the public. His
work in the city testifes to his industry and

that he is willing to serve i'll the Office for
which he is named.

Y. HI. G.. Il. Contention.

The Minnesota State convention of Young
Mems Christian associations is called to meet
in Saltwater, Friday, Saturday and Sunday,
November 81, % and %, and every preparation
is being made to make it one of the most sue
cessful conventions ever held. Arrangements
are in progress, which it would be premature
to announce in detail at present, by which it is
hoped to secure the attendance of a number of
the leading Christian workers, not only of the
State, but from abroad. The topics chosen are
those of the most vital Importance to every
lover of the future welfare of the State, as it
depends upon the integrity and high moral
standard to be advanced among its young men.
The music will be made an attractive feature
OF the convention and will probably be under
the charge of a leading St. Paul vocalist, as
sisted by chorus choir. Further particulars
will appear shortly.

Moody says of Ingersoll: ''He is a clever
man, but he is all wrong. He turns his back
on Christianity, and then rails at it as false
hood. He tries to gauge the actions of God by

his unbelief. I do not condemn him; his un-
belief is probably honest, but from my heart 1
pity him."

Commissioner of Pensions.


The annual joint convention for 1879
of the State Agricultural and Horti-
cultural Societies was held at Madison
last week. The discussions and pa
pers before the convention are said to
have boon of a very interesting and
instructive nature and highly profit
able to those who were so fortunate as
to hear them. One OF the more i'm
portant essays was that by Hon. Hiram
Smith, of Sheboygan Falls, on DAIRY
ing in Wisconsin" Mr.. Smith is one
of the leading producers in this branch
of industry and is at home on the sub
ject. He assumes that while it is not
profitable for the farmtFs of Wiseon-
sin to compete with neis -boring States
in the production of corn and wheat,
they can successfully compete with
the eastern States, and even foreign
countries in the production of butter
and cheese. He expresses the opinion
that fifty acres of Wisconsin land that
will produce wheat to the value of
four hundred dollars will, Will. proper
management, maintain twenty-five
cows at an annual profit of at least
thirty dollars each. The subject of
dairying is worth the investigation of
our farmers pending the reduced price
of wheat.

NEW YORK CUSTOM HOUSE Con-
FORMATIONS.

All who do not share in the belief
that the interests of the government
service in the matter of federal APP
pointments should be subordinated to
the ambition of Congressman, will be
! glad to learn that the latest appoint
ments made by President Hayes in
the New York Custom House, have
been confirmed by the Senate. in spite
of the desperate efforts of Senator
Conkling to defeat confirmation in
these instances. Under the spoils sys-
tenn Conkling arrogated to himself
the inalienable privilege of debating
federal appointments in New York, tax
ing great care to shape them as to pro-
mote the ambition of Roscoe Conkling
to remain in the United States Senate
until, per chance, he should be called
to the Presidential chair. Under the
corrupt management of the New York
Custom House by Conkling's proteges
the government was being defrauded
out of large sums Of money and West
ern imports placed at a decided disad-
vantage. Charges were preferred, an
investigation instituted and such a
corrupt state of affairs unear thed that
the President pending the Congress
sional recess, felt constrained to in
troduce a little civil service reform in
that particular locality, i'll consequence
of which the old officers were bounced
and new ones appointed. This mani
testify proper movement on the part Of
President Hayes eXasparated Conkling
beyond measure and that gentleman
assiduously nurtured his wrath until
last week when he unloaded a liberal
supply of invective against President
Hayes, the occasion being the consid-
GRAFTON of the question of confirma-
ton. Conkling's extreme bitterness
reacted against himself and the adj
ministration emerged from the contest
with flying colors, the appointments
being confirmed. In this matter the
Democratic Senators generally voted
for confirmation and those who did so
are entitled to much credit. Senator
Howe, true to his instincts, voted with
Conkling to embarrass the President
in his efforts to divorce appointments
from the control of the machine poll
ticians, while Senator Cameron, we
are glad to be able to state, voted in
the interests of the people and for
confirmation. Conkling has proven
himself unequal to his opportunities
and can now pretty safely be set down
as one who will not be the Republican
candidate for President in 1880.

NEED THE BURDEN BE so HEAvYP

Statistics show that during the year
1877 the direct taxes paid by the peo-
pie of this State amounted to $8,031,-
62S, and that the amount of internal
revenue tax returned from Wisconsin
for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1877,
on spirits, tobacco and fermented liq-
uors alone is 81, Sl3 ,2l0.8l or over
$500. 600 more than what would equal
one-fourth of the total State, county,
town, school, road and special taxes;
it should also be borne in mind that
this sum, large as 1t is, does not in
clude the entire tax paid by the con-
sumner upon these luxuries % of life;
