ZAcH CHANDLER, who was chairman
of the Republican National Committee
in 1876, says that he never did a thing,
wrote line, sent dispatch-either
in cipher or in the English language,
or in any other way--that he would
not be glad to see in print tomorrow
morning in all the Democratic papers
in these United States. That's the
kind of ''hairpin' old Zach. is. He
is one of the "stalwarts who did not
depend upon his salary for support
when formerly in the United States
Senate and opposed the back pay grab.
1t has been given out that Carpenter
will not hereafter train with Chandler,
Logan & Co., but If Matt. doesn't get
into any worse company than Gambler,
of Michigan, his moral and political
virtue will not become very sadly de-
based.

THIS Committee of the State Agri-
cultural Society on the location of the
State Fair for 1879 has decided upon
Madison as the place and the 8th, 9th,
10th, 18th and 18th days of September
as the time. conditioned that the peo-
pie of Madison shall raise the sum of
$500 for improvement of grounds and
repairs of buildings. There is no
doubt that the Madison folks will meet
this condition and the matter may be
safely regarded as settled. Why can
not those citizens in the different
towns of Pierce county and Troy and
Kinnickinnic, in st. Croix county,
pool small portion of their funds,
charter one or more cars and attend
the next State Fair! A pleasant trip
would doubtless be the result of such
an arrangement, and the cost @ { a trip
to our beautiful capital city would
thus be reduced to a nominal sum
''and don't you forget it. )"

A BILL has passed the Legisla-
ture so amending Section 1869 of the
Revised Statutes of 1878 as to require
the State Board of Assessment to meet
at the capitol in Madison, on the third
Wednesday of May, 1879, and annu'
ally thereafter, instead of biennlally
as heretofore. Experience has sug-
gested this innovation and we are OF
the opinion that the change will prove
a wise one.

The textbook bill, substantially as
reported by the textbook commission,
is likely to become law. While this
bill does not contain all that the
friends of this measure asked for, it is
long step towards what they desire
and will doubtlessly lead eventually to
what they have sought. The bill is a
compromise between two extremes
and if it becomes law will very ma
terially cheaper the cost of school
books ana advance the cause of educa-
ton.

THE Democratic members of the Leg
islature have called out Judge NJ. NJ.
Cothren, Judge of the Fifth judicial
Circuit, as the Democratic candidate
for Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court, to succeed Judge Cole. If this
is to be the settled policy of the Dem
ocratic party of Wisconsin we trust
that the Republicans will match their
opponents by re-electing Judge Cole
at the coming April judicial election,
and follow up such action by bouncing
Chief Justice Ryan at the expiration
of his current term. Judge Cole has
been upon the Supreme Bench for
many years and is an able jurist OF rec
ognized worth and integrity.

In an interview between couple of
metropolitan newspaper men concern
ing the finances of ex-Presidents Mon
roe and Grant it was stated that the
former, some time previous to his
death subsisted upon the charity of
friends, and that Grant was not very
well fixed so far as this worlds goods
were concerned. One of the parties
to this interview expressed the opin-
ion that general law giving all eX-
Presidents $4,000 a year while they
lived would be approved by the peo-
pie. We do not see why such law
should be approved by the people. 1t
strikes us that man who has drawn
an annual salary of $50, 900 for a pc
riod of four or eight years, is not prop
erly an object of charity; for, if he
can save nothing from his salary, his
ability, recognized by majority OF
the people of the entire nation, should
enable him to keep the wolf of starva'
ton from his door.

must he lunatic instead of an Assem-

financially also. The music was good, and
the managers attentive and untiring in
their efforts to make everybody happy.

flags and emblems of the Union. The
ladies were handsome, ind most be-
coniingly attired. Quite Il large dele
CATION of ladies' and gentlemen were in

long be remembered by all who participated
in the enjoyment of the occasion.
