SPEAKING of which is the most profitable.
butter or cheese, Professor Willard saws
The usual basis taken in calculating for
these two prodncts-and it is a fair one in
ordinary practice-is that it will take two
and one-halt times ,he quantity of milk to
get a pound of butter tina it does for a
pound OF cheese. Thus we say it takes on
an average ten pounds of milk to make one
Of cheese, and twenty-five pounds Of milk
for one of butter. If the best of making
and the waste material resulting from the
manufacture Of the two products be not ia
ken into account, the corresponding price
Of butter should be two and one-half times
that OF cheese to market values equal.
Thus, If cheese sells for ten cents, butter
should bring twenty-five cents. If cheese
brings but eight cents, the corresponding
price Of butter should be twenty cents,
1t the waste material-that is to say, the
whey on hand and tile skim milk on the
other-be brought into the circulation, but
ter-making has slightly the advantage, be-
cause the skim milk is worth more than
whey as food for domestic animals"

REPUBLICAN victories IN the state were
cited frequently as an evidence of the
mismanagement of the democratic party
by Hon. Jos. Rankin. In q republican
state it is indeed strange to attribute re-
publican victories to the leader of the
opposition. A new chairman has been
tried this year, one who tried means
which Mr.. Rankin deemed useless and
the republican majority is greater than
at any time during Mr.. Rankin's occu-
paney of the craftsmanship. 1t is absurd
to charge defeat to any man. Wisconsin
is republican state and no one man who
has the management of the affairs of the
opposite party can By his own efforts
overcome the adverse majority. People
are unreasoning in politics. Prejudice
and not calm consideration of the mer-
its Of the candidates dictates party
choice. The democrats had the best
ticket and the best platform ever pre-
scented to the people of the state, but
they interposed no obstacle to the sue
cess of inveterate Office seekers. Repub-
licans are true to their party through
good report and evil report. Their allie
glance defes abuses and errors. If they
are told by their leaders to hate the
south they forthwith hate it with every
manifestation of cordiality. If some
stalwart demagogue asserts that the doc
trine of secession is being revived they
believe it without knowing why they do
believe.

We are in receipt of the state treas
urer's report for the fiscal year ending
September 3tb, 1879. From it we learn
that the Indebtedness of the state
amounts to 81, 90, O57OO, of which
amount g, 241 Goo 90 are due, the school.
normal, university and agricultural col
lege funds. The total receipts of the
state including the balance on hand Oct.
1st, 1873, amount to S2,215, gu. 90, and
the disbursements to 81, $40, 146. 40, leay-
ing balance on hand to the amount of
1888, s24.60, against s4O3, 2SS. 90 last
year.
Fourteen counties pay moro into the
state general fund than does Manitowoc
county, it standing fifteenth in that re-
spect while in the amount paid in
through suit tax Manitowoc county
stands eighth, position not earned by
her wealth. In the amount of school
moneys distributed to counties by the
state, Manitowoc stands fifth. 1t will
surprise people to learn that railroad
companies pay into the general fund
1895, SS6.46, an amount nearly equal to
one-haf secured through state tax.

THE harpies at Washington known as
attorneys who collect "back pay" for
disabled soldiers or their relatives are
trying d new dodge. Notwithstanding
the care taken by Commissioner Bently
toprevent these sharpers from defrauding
benefciaries of the government they
still manage to ply their vocation. They
write to parties stating that it was owing
to their efforts that "back pay" was Sc
cured and asking for compensation. In
many instances this imposture has been
successful, and good share of the aid
designed for those who suffered for their
country is directed into the pockets OF
legal charlatans.

VIZ regret that the Tribune of last
week saw fit to celebrate partial vic
tory through the means of cartoons.
Any public expression Of sympathy in
case of his defeat, to person not devoid
of manly pride is no less distasteful, than
rejoicing on the part of opponents for
the same cause is exasperating. Afr.
Hussey accepted the verdict of the peo-
pie as uncomplainingly as any person
could and while he asked nothing from
the forbearance of party his defeat should
have softened the asperity of party
strife. Political opposition should not
breed personal animosities, and q victory
becomes barren Of results when abused.
Hatpel's Weekly did much TO defeat
Horace Greedy but while its cartoons in
iured She candidate against whom they
were directed, they made that journal
feared rather than respected A paper
viii do much more good ultimately by
reaaoning than 10y ridiculing. Tho III
bHf has made serious mistake in this.
Il has not injured Mr.. Hussey but made
hlm many friends. The cartoon weat
boioad the k4aits OF propriety.

WHY THEY WON.

The large republican majorities at the
elections held in most of the northern
states this fall demonstrate the strength
of sectional feeling still existing. The
republican party was fast losing the con-
fidence OF the people; it had become q
party devoted solely to the interests of
the few and both houses passed from its
control. In the election of president
three years ago the people rejected the
republican nominee by popular MAORI
ty of one quarter of a million votes. A
Reputation as emphatic as could be
made through peaceful means. While
there was q prospect of all dissensions
being forgotten all sectional lines dis
carded and friendly relations established
the republican party had no hopes of
maintaining its power. The country
would not tolerate the means resorted to
in 1876 to discard the peoples choice
for president.
As the republican party came into
power in period of confusion, disturb
ance and diseord it can exist only under
ike conditions. For this purpose the
south was made to assume a hostile at
titude toward the northern states. 1t
was proclaimed that the government was
in great danger. Every murder in the
south was declared to be on political
grounds. 1t was currently reported that
confederate money was being collected
in the hope that democratic admins
tration would order its redemption.
Every republican paper, every repubh-
can orator, every republican politician
was active in melting the fear that con-
federates were trying to secure through
legislation what they failed to secure
through force of arms. The country was
alarmed through issues that were the mer-
est chimeras. 4 war feeling was preva-
lent without a foe on whom to vent the
valor that was coniured up. 1t was Don
Quiyote's fancy Transforming flock of
sheep into ironclad warriors.
But it served the purpose of the poll
ticians. The country was saved. The
confederates, whose moderation under
repeated provocation was the wonder of
everyone, were curbed. The logic OF
late events give promise that the north
will be solid in 1880. The SUCCESS OF
that party is purchased by the loss OF
that confidence which alone can secure
national prosperity.
Let the people stop and think whether
they have not been deceived by men who
are anxious to retain power at any cost.
4 party which can SO manipulate matters
| as to secure the electoral votes of three
| states for a candidate for whom the ma
iority of the people of these states did
not intend they should be cast, would
not scruple to lead the people off Oh
false issues SO as to screen their own sins
from observation, What is there in the
action of the late confederate states thai
gives color to the presumption that they
| are opposed to the constitution ? A wal
now closed fifteen years belongs to histo
ry and not to the present.

IRISH AGITATION.

The agitation in Ireland continues and
there seems to be no prospect of its dis
continuance until the tenants become
proprietors of the land which they work.
Parneu's scheme is for the government
to buy up all the lands and issue bonds
in payment therefor. Then to sell the
lands in small parcels to the present
tenants, allowing them to pay for them in
annual installments about equal to the
rent now paid. This scheme will do
away with the landed aristocracy but
will be decidedly advantageous to the
government and to the people. Land
now uncultivated and wild will be re-
claimed, proprietorship will add to the
industry and care Of the people, and
they will have personal interest together
with associations to bind them to their
country. The Irish people have now
nothing but the instructive love of coun-
try to restrain them from emigrating.
Let that be supplemented by sense OF
ownership and content will court pros
perity.
In Ireland as in Great Britain the
land is owned by comparatively small
number Of people. The danger of this
state of affairs has alarmed some fan
seeing Engllshmen, who say that patriot
ism with the mass of the English people
is a sentiment that can not endure long
continued adversely. The poor man
without property has not the same inter-
est in the stability of the government as
the heavy land holder. There can be no
doubt that Parnell's scheme will in time
rebound as much to the advantage of the
government as to the individuals in
whose interests it is urged.

That peaceful time will last;
And Oh! how bright the morn that greets her

When that brief rest Is past!

Soothed Iairus lives and comforts still

The maiden sleeps-the last sad kiss is pressed,
Upon the lips SO still;
The Father help thee in thy sore distress,
For mother it's His will.
And as you hear the solemn knell,
Sing ye the hymn she loved so we'll
