P. 81. Hewitt opened school yesterday
in the Pritchard district and James Kir-
wan did the same in district No. 3. Both
these gentlemen are first class peda-
gogues and never fail to gain the good
will and appreciation of the entire COM
munities in which they SO ably shoe. the
young idea.
The cattle fair held here yesterday was
dismal failure. nothing being on exhi-
bition but q two-year old steer and a
butcher from Sheboygan. Neither of
them we're sold.
Bill Cornell has Just completed the
raising of large frame barn. 1t took a
large number of men two days to perform
the job.
Sarah Maloney died here of typhoid
fever on Friday. She contracted the
disease in Chicago but succeeded in
reaching home about two weeks before
her death. She was very intelligent
and estimable young lady. She was cut
off in the morning of life, her age being
about twenty-five. Her loss is regretted
by everyone who had the good fortune
to be acquainted with her many excel
lent and estimable traits of character.
The middle in the Gallagher school
district has been satisfactorily adjusted.
A pedagogue possessing first class edu-
cational attainments and a splendid
physique may now seek the position
No other need apply.
A Garfield and Arthur club, with all
that the name implies, was organized in
Centerville on SATURDAY evening. A few
sorry-looking post masters, together with
a couple of ''gaugers," or words to that
effect, were the prime movers in the en-
terprise. The audience consisted of q
very small number of very thirsty indi
viduals. Not thirsty, however, to hear
the infamous record of the republican
candidate for observation-disclosures by
paid orators, but thirsty for Scherbe's
pure, unauthorized lager beer The
burning thirst, we are happy to relate,
was somewhat modified, if not entirely
relieved. The glib-tongued orators, as
is usual upon such occasions, paying the
piper.
Joe Finch Of Liberty, has announced
himself as candidate for member of
assembly from this district. Everybody
knows Joe and everyone who knows him
is his friend. Without disparaging the
''ohanees" and eminent qualities of the
other candidates for the position, we can
safely say that Joe will enter the conven-
ton with a good backing and if nomi-
mated will poll a heavier vote than any
other man in the district as he is gen
tleman all over and qualified in every
respect to make first class. honest and
efficient representative.
A life sized portrait of Garfield and
Arthur hangs in conspicuous place in
the Osman post Office. We understand |
that recent orders from headquarters at |
Washington compel all post masters
to exhibit the republican candidates in
this manner. Garfield has a massive
bulldog head, Jewish cast of counte. |
nance and a very peculiar forehead which |
some wretch has maltreated by writing
thereon the fatal figures 1929" These |
figures, of course, give beholders better |
idea of the true inwardness of the repub-
hcan candidate, still we think they are
out of place in governmental post office |
The proprietor will probably send for a
new portrait Of the reverend candidate |
and then station guard over it until cleo
ton to prevent some scallawag from |
applying the "fnishing touch" of "s329"
which would certainly give it a more
ife-ike and truthful appearance, but
which, republicans or postmasters do |
not wish to see branded on the forehead |
of the correct candidate of the once great
republican party.
The congregation of st. Fidelia's Cath |
Ole church have nearly completed the
erection of fine school house. The
painter, Henry Glueckstein, is now CIV
ing it the finishing touches. 1t will Re
opened in few weeks and presided over
by competent lady teacher. The stud
les will be entirely in the German Ian
guage.
The reception of Gen. Bragg on Fri
day evening promises to be very enthu-
siastic. The little general will no doubt
make it extremely lively for the boys
and devilish hot for the republicans.
The Hancock and English club of
Meme now numbers nearly one hundred
members. At its regular meeting on
Saturday evening Judge Kirwan and |
Henry Sibree delivered addresses. The
speech of the former was certainly the |
best political address that your cores
pendent ever listened to and he has heard |
scores of the most eminent political |
speakers in the land. 1t was clear, able, |
exhaustive and conclusive. With an ele- |
gance which we did not deem him cap
able of, he depicted the history and mo-
tives of the republican party, laid bare
their pretensions to virtue and morality |
and proved By historical and incontro-
vertible facts that they were an inconsis- !
tent party with nothing to stand upon
but hypocrisy and no banner to wave
but that of the bloody shirt. Judge |
Kirwan was always very popular here in
the home of his boyhood, and was always |
deemed man of superior ability; but his
brilliant effort of Saturday night surpris-
ed even his most intimate friends and
stamps him as one of the most erudite
political scholars of the day as we'll as
