BRIGHT OUTLOOK For wooLsRowERs.


In England, during the past winter. the
''liver rot" disease quite unknown
among the fiocks of the United States. has
caused the death OF hundreds of thousands
of sheep. and brought a loss TO the farm
ers which several years OF the most care
ful breeding will not enable them to re-
cover from. In Turkey. Persia. Russia,
India. and throughout the eastern nations
generally, the prevalence of war. which
has rendered il necessary for vast numbers
of sheep TO be slaughtered. has almost put
a stop 10 the production Of wool, so that
in English markets there is really danger
of wool famine" and prices of all
grades of wool have advanced to figures
quite unknown in the previous history OF
the wool markets at this season of the
year. Moreover. the consumption of all
gra!es of combing, delaine and carpet
woods has, during the eight months last
past, increased in our own country fully
40 per cent, while England is demanding
more OF our mutton than ever before in
the history of our country all of which
has given sheep husbandry and wool pro-
duction such nm impetus rs il has not be-
fore had for wears. Ii is. in tact, q revival
of one OF the greatest branches of our ma
tioHal industry. and one which is likely to
leave it something of permanence. and be
productive of Tasting advantage. We base
this opinion upon the following, among
other facts: During the past year the wool
manufacturers of the vicinity of Boston
required for their wants ~. 800, 900 pounds
of wool more than was used by them in
1873, while the stock of domestic wool
which they had on hand on the LIST of Jan
uary last was the smallest. with one ex-
ception, for the past five years, and while
it was also true that the great West and
the whole interior of our country was new
er so completely cleared of wool on the
lst of JANUARY rs il was at the beginning
of this year. Since last November. wool
en- goods have been selling rs fast as thew
could be manufactured. thing which has
not occurred previously at the same sea-
son of the year for many years. These
and other facts will induce an increased
attention to sheep husbandry, and when
the keeping of sheep comes to be made a
business for wool, mutton and manure.
and not for wool alone, it will then be-
come Il stable and permanent branch of
farming.
One great trouble has heretofore been.
that sheep farming in this country, in the
Eastern States especially. has been carried
on in a somewhat spasmodic fashion,
Farmers have kept sheep for few years,
then with IN rnf,vorable turn in prices,
or losses on account of bad seasons, have
abandoned the business for something else.
But we have yet to hear of an instance
where farmer has stuck to sheep hus-
bandry as business for a period of ten
or fifteen years. who has not made money
and kept his farm growing better from
such a course.

CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATIONS.

The Plymouth Reporter is urging the
necessity of either Manitowoc or Sheboy-
gan county's presenting q candidate for
congress to succeed Gen. Bragg. There
can be no denying that either county has
claims which the democrats Of the FIFTH
district can not in justice ignore. But
we know of no man on the lake shore
desiring nomination, whose services to
the party entitIe his preteusions to cou-
sideration. We cannot approve of tue
policy of supporting a man on account of
locality regardless of his qualifications.
The democrats of Manitowoc county,
have on more than one occasion urged
Senator Rankin to allow his name to be
presented to former conventions as a can
didate for the Fifth district, but he
steadily refused. There does not seem
any probability at present that like sug
gestion will be received more favorably
this year. What other candidates the
lake shore counties may have is not
known. But If they hope for the unan-
imous support Of the two counties, they
must be men not so inferior in point of
ability to Gen. Bragg, rs to make their
candidacy absurd. When either county
has candidate of well recognized ability
Gen. Bragg has no claims which deserve
preference. But his ability will appeal
stronger to the democrats of this section
than the question of locality unaccom-
panied by reputation which will invoke
local pride.
Some weeks ago the Chronicle publish
ed a communication on the subject,
which has been the inspiration of the
Reporters article. The Chronicle article
dwell upon the danger of defeat in the
event of the selection of a candidate from
Dodge or Fond du Lac. If Manitowoc
or Slrboygan had an outspoken candi-
date, and we'll qualified, on whom both
counties could unite, and the proverbial
greed OF Dodge and Fond du Lac should
be asserted at his expense, the dlssatis-
faction ensuing might make the result of
the election somewhat doubtful. But
not haMng a candidate and virtually con-
ceding the uiiice to Fond du Lac, there
seems no good ground for believing there
would be any desertion from the nomi-
nee. Mr.. Luling is pronounced in his
denial that he IS a candidate, and could
not see his way TO az acceptance in case
hs as nominated. This leaves me re-
pub.ic8ns Of the lake shore in about the
SINE position as the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
dateless. 1t is time enough TO urge the
claims of the lake shore when we have q
candidate on whom those claims can cen
ter. To do SO before is to raise iissen-
sions without the least prospeC, Of On I'M

GARFIELDS RECORD.

1t is now quite evident that the nomi-
nation OF Garfield was not the work OF
deiberation. The ugly bIots upon his
record make him weak candidate, and
when it is too late, republicans see their
fatal error. In the Credit Mobilier mat
ter, Garfield is not only charged with Of
fetal corruption, but with an attempt to
5uborn perjury, and with having himself
knowingly sworn to what was false.
Garfield was a comparatively obscure
man at the time Of the investigation, and
as he has since grown in popularity and
celebrity those dark spots in his early
history had been comparatively forgot
ten, until now that he is a candidate ask
ing for the sufrages Of the electors Of the
United States. Garield's Credit Mobil-
Ter dealing affected his standing quite
seriously in the district which lie repre-
sented IN congress. Although be receiv-
ed over 1900 majority, before his par
ticipation in the Credit Mobilier, at the
election Immediately succeeding, his ma.
jority was reduced TO about 1000 and
during the canvass he was forced to make
the most abieet appeals for forgiveness.
Jim Blaine was a sharer IN these corrupt
transactions. But he boldly lied it out.
intimidated the investigating committee
and prevented exposure. Two of the
congressman implicated died from the
weight Of the disgrace. Schuyler Col
fax, on whose path political preferment
waited, was permanently retired to pri-
vate life.
But it is in the DeGolyer pavement
contracts that Garfield appears in the
worst light. In that there is a direct
bride, amply supported by testimony and
confirmed by the decision of a court.
Ia that Garfield and his friends are con-
fronted by the ugliest facts, and SEEM
ingly the only way he can meet them, is
to express repentance. Il IS not the par
tisan investigation of a committee nor the
irresponsible charge of newspapers or
political opponents, but the records of a
court that Garfield and his friends must
meet. Suit was brought in Cook county,
Illinois, by person named Chittenden,
against McClelland and DeGolyer, the
plaintiff claiming a certain sum of money
for having secured government contracts
for defendants, the agreement being that
plaintiff should have one third. Tie
work was paving the streets Of Washing
ton, which could be done for $3.50 a
yard, but for which DeGolyer and Me-
Clelland received $3.50 per yard. The
defense set up was that the contract was
secured through corruption and was void
on grounds of public policy. The testi-
mony showed that Garfield was chair
man Of the committee on appropriations,
that he secured the passage of an appro-
priatIon of about one and quarter mil
lion of dollars for paving, and that Chit
tenden paid him So, 900 for his official in
huence in securing the passage of the
bill. The court dismissed the action and
says it is apparent there was a sale of of
fetal influence. This is most damning
testimony and the papers of the country
are calling upon Garfield for an ezplana-
ton

A FOREIGN CANDIDATE.

Some of the state papers affect great
admiration for the Wisconsin delegation
at Chicago because Of their break to Gar
field. They were sadly in need OF a
break to bring them from the dead level
Of insignifeance caused by their support
Of such candidate as Washburne. Those
VINO supported Blaine had his brilliancy
and dash as warrant for their enthu-
siasm. Window was 20 favorite son"
and might reasonably expect the vote Of
his own state. Edmunds, Sherman and
Grant have history which would war
rant ambition, but Washburne is not
much more than a combination Of letters.
Washburne was as distant from the NOM
nation rs from the ''golden chariot Of
the Pleiades." The delegates who sup
ported him might as well have voted
blank
We pUrposed writing something on the
one circumstance which. raised Wash
burne to the dignity of a presidential can
didate; the one single argument adduced
in his favor by his supporters; that of
having been ot service to the German
residents Of Paris at the time Of the
Prussian siege. The Milwaukee Senti-
mel has SO successfully ridicUIed this po-
sition that we refer to it now merely for
the purpose of emphasizing the Sentinel's
remarks. How the American people
should owe a debt of gratitude to Wash
burne because he was friendly to the
people of any country at time when
friendship was valuable, does not appear
clearly. Any man who is a candidate on
such an issue deserves the measure of
success which Washburne received at
Chicago. Germans, who are American
citizens have more sense than to believe
that the record most desirable in Z pres
idenbal candidate is his having exter ded
favors to members Of their race. citizens
Of different country. Suppose George
francis Train should ask the nomination
for the presidency on the ground that the
people of Ireland had nominated him,
would their dictation have any weight
with political conventions? The Ameri-
can people did not feel that the presiden-
cy of the United States was proper re-
ward for the services of Washburne to
citizens of foreign country. The silly
twaddle that the German Americans were
rampant for him on this gIound is q libel
on their intelligence. The persons who
attempted to create this sentiment intro
duced a dangerous element into politics,
something almost as bad as religion, IA
tionahty. Wisconsin did not amount to
much in the convention and threw away
her votes on a very poor candidate, rep
resenSing very narrow idea. Any at
tempt to get up German, an Irish. a
Norwegian, a Russian or any national
candidate should be sat down upon as
heavily as the Chicago convention sat up
on Nashburne.

Two Long Island Sound steamers col
lided on the sound near Stoneing5on,
Cona., on Friday last at about midnight,
in fog. The Narragansett had on board
from 800 to $50 passengers. The Stone
ington struck her little ahead of the
wheelhouse, and scattering the Goals
from the furnace, the steamer soon took
fire. The widest confusion prevailed
and the passengers leaped into the water.

Of the Stonnington were so excited that
they were unable to render ready assist

people were lost and probably The loss
