Some persons have mistakenly sup
posed that the advance in the price of
petroleum is caused by the inspection
laws passed by our legislature last
winter. The rise, like the advance in
the price of coal, is caused by combi-
nation of monopolists, as has been di-
vulged in a recent law suit. The diff
ferent refinery firms entered into a
contract to limit the production, so
that enormous profits might be realized.
One of the refneries exceeded the
stipulated amount, and the Cleveland
companies brought suit to enforce the
contract. The court decided that the
contract was repugnant to public pol
icy, and therefore void. This releases
all the parties, and it is likely now that
a competition will spring up that will
reduce the price of Illuminating oil to
a lower figure than has been reached
for some time. Our inspection law in
the main is good one, and insures a
safe quality of Oil to the public.

FOUND DEAD,

WAUKESHA, Dec IAN old man
named Jake Hill, who lived alone in a
house on Vermont street, near the out
skirts of town, was found dead in his
bed yesterday afternoon. He had been
missed for some time, and it is believed
his death occurred two weeks ago. The
body was in good state of preserva-
ton, decomposition having been ar
rested by the long continued cold
weather. On chair near his bed was
an ounce vial nearly empty, labeled
laudanum, and two bottles of whisky
were near at hand. Hills wife died
in February under suspicious circum-
stances, and the coroner's jury believed
that domestic trouble and continuous
dissipation drove him to self-destruc-
ton. The verdict of the jury was that
he came to death by his own hands. by
the use of poison.
John Dowd was yesterday afternoon
brought into the Police Court on a
charge Of being drunk, he being the
same individual who the night before
turned his family out of doors. He
was fined $40 and costs, and being un-
able to pay, was given twenty days in
Jail. Whisky seemed to be at the bot
tom Of his troubles, and he was yester-
day in condition which indicated that
he needed to be locked up long enough
to get well sobered off. He was in a
semi-hysterical state, grating his teeth,
crying. muttering, ETC., and a little
longer spree would have wrecked him

A Grand avenue man, who drew a
pension recently, got drunk with liquor
purchased by the money, went home
and has for quite a time been making
his home hideous. He has threatened
to kill his wife, drew razor on his
youngest child and went through sun
dry other similar tricks. The man is
evidently unsafe and the authorities
should see to having him placed in an
asylum or some other place of safe
keeping. - WGukegGa Gazette.

The recommendation of President
Hayes, to make ex-President u. s.
Grant General of the army and place
him on the retired list with full pay
does not meet with universal approba-
ton. tits step in the departure from
republican simplicity, and savors of
privileged aristocracy, SO obnoxious
to the spirit of liberty. A republic
has a right to command the highest
and best services of any of it's citizens,
even to the sacrifice of life. Hundreds
of thousands of brave and noble men
gave life and all for country. General
Grant rendered great and distinguished
services to the nation; call them I'M
equalled by those of any other citizen,
if you will. The people, too, have
rendered distinguished honors to Gen.
Grant, equal to those paid to Washing
ton, the father of his country. In the
national republican nominating con-
yention Gen. Grant came within few
votes OF being nominated for third
term of the Presidency of the United
States, and by his silence consented to
the honor. The people could not see
enough difference between third term
and perpetual President, and, jealous
of their rights, they firmly held to the
wise precedents of the fathers. Gen.
Grant Is comparatively young man,
in the prime and vigor Of life, and is
able to do good service for himself and
for his country, if they should again
command his services. The people
fully appreciate his distinguish services
snd have abundantly honored him. He
cannot charge this republic with being
in the least degree ungrateful, and he
has several times expressed himself as
being fully satisfied with the honors
awarded him by grateful nation. He
is now private citizen, enjoying all
the blessings of good government, in
common with all of us, and having
the right to use all his powers for his
own prosperity. Let him remain a
private citizen. The republic even to
future generations will not fail to
render him due honor for his distin-
guished services.

the first spike in the Texas Trunk railroad.

laid. General Cabell, the vice. president Of
