An event, probably without precedent
in any railway annals, has just happened
at Provins, France. A passenger train
leaving Paris at $3.50 p, M, and due at
Provins at S:25 p. m, arrived safely at
its proper destination, but on getting
down to let the passengers out of the
cars, the guard was astonished to find
neither passengers nor passenger cars.
They had forgotten to hook the cars on
in Paris. -. es.r

Of NOT WHY NOT?"

Gen. Parkinson, chairman of the Demo
cratic State Central Committee, and edi-
tor of the Madison Democrat, published
the following article in his paper short
time since. AS it originates from high
democratic source, the article will carry
much weight with it among the democrats
of Wisconsin,:
The question of the hour is, shall the
democratic party of the north disband.
If not why not? The result of the late
election has certainly left the democratic
party of the north in a worse position
than it has ever been in before, and made
this question one calling for consideration.
The popular majorities in the north against
the democratic party are far larger than
the popular majorities in the south are
against the republican party. The demo-
Gratis of the north have only little better
representation in Congress than the re-
publicans of the south have In 1876 the
republicans carried South Carolina by
759, and at the late election the republi
cans carried Tennessee on governor by
10000. Last Tuesday the democrats
carried New Jersey by about 1900, and
Nevada by perhaps 300. The north is
TINS shown to be much more solid for
republicanism than the south ever was
for democracy. In the States of Maine,

POMEROYS FICTIN.

Alpheus Foote, recently a partner of
Brick Pomeroy in The La Crosse Demo-
crat was convicted of forgery last week
and sentenced to state prison for five
years. Something over year ago Foote
was running a small job printing office in
La Crosse, when Brick induced him, by
high sounding promises, to go in with
him and revive the old La Crosse Demo
crat. Brick showed by the books of the
concern during and Immediately after the
war that a fortune could be made in no
time. The foolish young man took the
bait hook and ALL He had no money
himself, but he had a short time before
married the daughter of "a wealthy lumber
man by the name of Vincent, which ac-
counts for the reason that Brick selected
Foote for a partner. 1t turns out that
Brick had not a penny himself, and the
only money put into the concern was
$4,000 furnished by Foote'S father-in-law,
while obligations were assumed amount
ing to upwards of $4,000. The paper
did not pay expenses, and as obligations
fell due Foote met them by forging Vim
cents name. He was led to do this by
Pomeroys repeated assurances that as
soon as it become generally known that
that The La Crosse Democrat had been
revived, money would pour into their
Golfers from all sources, and the forged
paper could then be taken care of. Vim
cent took up the forged notes for time
rather than bring scandal on the family,
but more money was needed from time to
time to keep the paper running, and more
iorgeries were committed by Foote Vim
cent, at last becoming convinced that
Foote could be stopped from using his
name in 10 other way, had him arrested.
Then the bottom dropped out Of the con-
Germ. The office material was placed in the
hands of the sheriff and Pomeroy who,
not being crlmlnally connected with the
forgeries himself, went scot free, leaving
his luckless partner to suffer the conse-
quences Of bis wild and visionary schemes
The best five years of Foote'S life will be
spent behind prison-bars, the result of
engaging in business with man who
had neither character or principle

their senatorial aspirations. The two men
who are active out-and-out candidates are
Hon E. w. Reyes, of Madison and Hon.
Philetus Sawyer, of Oshkosh. The
strength of each is an intangible thing, of
which an outsider has very little know
ledge The friends of Reyes claim that
their favorite has a walk-a-way and will
have majority on the first ballot, while
Sawyers hackers talk even more confident
of his chances.
The legislature in both houses has 101
republican members. The person who
receives majority, or 81 votes for U. 5.
Senator in republican caucus will be the
nominee of the republicans, and will ac-
cording to party custom, receive the votes
of the 101 republican members in ajoint
session of the legislature The democrats
will present the name Of some man of
their party, and vote for him in joint ses-
sion, but it will be omplimentary pro-
ceeding merely, as he will receive only
80 votes out of the 1873 which composes
the legislature,
Besides the usual amount oflegislation,
good, bad and Indifferent, the legislature
will be called to pass upon two proposed
constitutional amendments, one relating
to bienniel sessions of the legislature and
the other to female suffrage. These
measures passed both houses last year by
good majorities, but they will meet with
furious opposition this winter 1t is quite
probable that the resolution comforting
suffrage on woman will be killed, al
though it is an admitted fact that the
measure has many more supporters than
1t had before the matter was brought be-
fore the people of the state a year ago
AS the opinion seems to be quite prevail
ent that the state is afflicted by too much
legislation through annual sessions the
biennial resolution may go through
the legislature again this year, and the
people will then have chance at the
next election to decide whether we shall
have annual or bienniel sessions hereaf-

THANKSGIVING is purely Yankee no-
ton and dates back to the earliest days
of the Plymouth colony. The summer of
1888 was one Of peculiar trial to the i'll
FAINT colony, owing to a long-continued
drought, and day of humiliation and
prayer was appointed. In answer to the
petitions of the faithful came abundant
rains, and thus were saved the crops and
the people In grateful acknowledgment
to God the first American Thanksgiving
was devoutly celebrated at the hearth
stone of every heart. The second thanks
giving was observed in 1910; the third
in 1861; the fourth in 1864; then 1876,
1880, 1856, and every alterate year until
1890, when the festival was made public,
and annually observed by the colonies.
Washington issued the first Presidential
proclamation for Thanksgiving Day, Jan.
[, 1895. But it was not until slavery
was abolished, and loyal people appre-
ciated the sterling value of national unity,
that the thanksgiving was strictly nation

! Kansas, and Colorado-ten states-the
democrats have not elected a single rep
resentatiye in Congress- They have two
of eight in Wisconsin, five Of eighteen
in Illinois, four of fifteen in Indiana, five
of twenty in Ohio six of twenty-seven in
Pennsylvania, and thirteen of thirty
three in New Yo-k-ln all IS of 28O rep
resentatives in the north. The republi-
can party in the south could beat this
showing, when the republican national
committee abandoned it, and it disbanded
itself.
The southern states are not much sur
prised and even less disturbed by the
result Of the late election. 1t is only a
question of small amount of homage to
the republican national administration,
that they are called upon to pay, and
they find it by much the simpler and
easier way to pay it. They have all
their stale and local governments in their
| hands and are little interested and less
troubled about the national administra-
ton. They send up to Congress as a
large delegation which will no doubt
secure, in the main, the legislation the
southern states require. The country is
in fact solid north and solid south.
The republicans at the late e.eullons
made some gains in the south, and there
is much said now about a break up of
the democratic party in the south A party
so overwhelmingly in the majority as the
democracy is at the south is not bit
more likely to break up than the repub-
lican party of the north is likely to break
up. No doubt there will by fair share
of political trading for spoils when the
next Congress meets, but that will be the
extent of the break up. The republican
party is generally dead in the south and
will continue SO for some time. This en-
ables the people there to meet and solve
other political questions. Other questions
| OF state interest are continually arising in
the north, but are crowded back and kept
down because of old political parties.
They will continue to be kept in the back
ground SO long as the democratic party
of the north maintains its organization
The democratic party has already made
all the sacrifices it can make for the union
1t sent its young men into Lincoln s camp
to aid in putting down the rebellion
(they have all been traitors ever since the
war; 1t offered to elect Greeley for con-
Citation and peace. Lastly it offered
the whole country for Hancock. (He
has now been paid in full for his military
services Now the northern democracy
has nothing more to ofer-no other
party duty to perform for the country.
Let the north be solid and let the south
be solid. If not why not?

THE LONG contested case over the
treasurership of Milwaukee between
Triumph and Geilfuss was settled last
week by Judge Small in favor Of Geilfuss,
who took possession Of the treasurer's Of
flee last Monday. 1t will be remembered
that Mr. Geilfuss was elected city treasur-
er of Milwaukee last spring, but before
he qualified it was discovered that he was
an alien, and the old treasurer, Trumpff,
refused to give him possession of the Of
flee. The case has dragged along, the
old treasurer taking it from one court to
another, interposing every imaginable
technically to keep the newly elected
treasurer out of his Office as long as posi-
ble Foreign born residents Of this coun-
try will learn from the Geilfuss case the
necessity eff establishing full citizenship

The blunder which may lead to the re-
turn of Hancock elector from Indiana
was not in the returns, but in the printed
blank poll-books used. These contained
the name of Thomas W. Bennett, who
was not candidate as one of the Repub-
lican electors. In the haste and careless
ness of the count, votes cast for b. u.
Parker, the republican electoral candi-
date for the Sixth District, were counted
for Bennett. The result is, on the face
of the returns, the election of a democrat
for the Sixth District.

bolstering up fraud by which the lead
