Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1880-08-05

ASSUMING that the claim made
for Mr.. Ilazelton Of valuable servic
es To pensioners Of his district to be
correct, its force is weakened by the
fact that during his term the arrears
Of pension bill has gone into effect J;
giving him opportunities to serve
his constituents many times oitener
than any of his predecessors had. 1t
does not follow, therefore, that be
displayed greater ability, or zeal
in caring for claims of this character
than any other representative would
have done under like circumstances,
with equal opportunities, Whoever
heard complaint that Gen. CoDb,
Mr.. Barber or Mr.. Magoon did not
promptly, faithfully and efficiently
attend to all matters of business IN
the departments intrusted to them
by constituents!

Col. Clark at Home.

Our advices from Grant county
indicate that Col Clark will carry
four of the six Assembly district
delegates, and :..l the four senator
ial delegates from that county-o in
a total of TO- The canvass of the
county is close and vigorous by both
aspirants, and if in all probability
the caucusses will be generally more
fully attended than ever before on a
like occasion. In some quarters it
is apprehended there may be at
teInpts at unfairness by the opposi-
tomas there have been in the past,
but Col, Clark friends are thor
ougAly aroused everywhere, and
confident Of success, whatever tao
ties may be employed against them.
Some of Clarks most enthusiastic
supporters claim the entire delega-
ton Of Grant for him. But, even
copceding two votes to Hazelton in
his own county, it can hardly be
possible that he would so before the
convention with SO poor home en-
dorsemeut More likely, it seems
10 as, that his name will not be pre-
sented, and that the delegation from
Grant Co. will be unit for Clark,
and thus insure his nomination. 1t
is not to be supposed that delegates
from other counties who might be
inclined to support Mr.. Hazelton,
will do so if he fails Of receiving the
support of his own county. No cam
didate was ever nominated in this
district unless sustained in conven-
ton by a majority at least of the
delegates from his home county
and none ever can or should be.

\ Washington Democratic paper
proposes that all ex-rebel soldiers be

being their man, this would be only
fair. 1t estimates that the receipts
from this source would be 81, 800, 1000,
which added to $2,0O0,000 expected
to be raised at the North, would give
q campaign fund "amply sufficient

'Elie Mni-Fest.

The preparations for the coming Mai-Fest
draw nearly to close. TIE respective COM
mitteea have worked zealously and in such a
manner that the general programme, as has
been most successful, will appear in few
days. All the lie, ding business houses of the
city will be closed on Monday, May Sd, from
one to six o'clock p. m. Not one visited by
the committee has refused their request
They will also be closed after nine o lock p.
M This will give the great number Of en-
ployes of business houses an opportunity to
participate in and enjoy the festivities. The
fire department of Dallas, ut
its meeting Tuesday night, invited
all departments in the State to be present,
and large representations are expected.
Many German societies from other cities
will also be in attendance, Up to yesterday
forty of the principal firms Of the city had
promised to be represented in the grand
carnival procession and this alone will
be superb feature. Special trains
have been arranged for to run between Dali
las and Corsicana and Dallas and Denison, at
a largely reduced rate of fare, thus assuring
immense numbers of visitors from our sister
cities and their vicinities. All indications
warrant the assertion that the Dallas Mai
fest this wear will be the grandest affair OF
the kind ever held in Texas

PALESTINE, April 10, 1850.
District court convened here this morning,
Peyton +. Edwards, Judge, presiding, Judge
Edwards is man of fine legal ability and
gives universal satisfaction, both TO the bar
and people of this Judicial Distrlct,------
There has been good deal of street talk
here within the past week relative to the
probable location OF the Trunk railway line.
jacksonville and Rusk, in Cherokee county,
are bidding heavily for the road. Jackson
Vile offers the company bonus of Sl2,OOO
TO run their line Of road there. Rusk pro-
poses to give the old road bed OF the Tram
line from that place to jacksonville. and the
charter of tho same to Sabine, carrying with
il sixteen sections of land per mile, and to do
nate depot grounds in their town. 1t will
also be remembered that this county has n
tax saddled upon it to pay subsidy of
about 100000, and if the Trunk road
il built to this place, it
will have about twenty-five miles
of road-bed in the county, which will repre-
sent near two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars of taxable property, which will be
subject to taxation TO discharge the enor-
NOUS subsidy above alluded to. All of
these things 90 to establish the fact that
Palestine might be left ''out IN the cold and
it is at at once evident to sensible MIND
that 1--WE should be up and doing" We call
attention to the above facts in order that our
citizens may be awakened to deeper interest
in matter that so vitality affects their ilnan'
cial welfare Palestine is situated on almost
direct line from kaufman to Sabine, and
the route would be more practicable over
which to construct railroad. If the COM
pany should conclude to come here, il would
avoid the great expense of grading through
the hills of Cherokee c unity, and also the
heavy bridging OF twice crossing the Neches
river.-Mrs. Edwin Fowler, daughter of
Hon. John II Reagan, died here on the
14th inst. Her funeral was largely
attended, and she leaves many de-
voted friends to mourn her loss.-

tennial exhibition soon to commence in

Buckles explanation of the spirit of
religious persecution was that in mod
ern times faith had undergone an eclipse
and men could not bring themselves to
persccute others into believing that
whereof they were themselves skept-
cal. The inadequateness of this eXplq-
nation of one of the most striking social
phenomena of our time, is forcibly
shown in the North american Repie,c for
January, by Prof. John Fiske, who as
signs n number of other causes that have
been at least as influential in bringing
about this most desirable result First,
there is the decline of the martial spirit
and the greater devotion to pacific in
dustrial pursuits. Then, as men rise in
the scale of civilization, they are less
disposed to be domineering. Finally,
men in modern times have quite lost the
sense Of corporate responsibility-the
belief that q whole community is liable
for the oGenses of the individual COM
prised in 1t. These points are establish
ed with all the ingenuity of reasoning
and wealth of learning for. which the
author isso distinguished. The other
