The Closing Year.


Another milestone on the road of life has been
passed Each and all of as are one year nearer the
hour when the dark curtain will be lifted and we will
pass forever into the silent land Now, we are not
proposing to preach a sermon, but to present some
phlosophic views. The prospect of leaving this
world should never cause shudder or draw tear
we know that we are physical beings, and that all
such must die. In the language of an old English
poet
Like leaves on trees the race of man is found
NOW NOW green in youth, now witberng the ground.
lnus generations in their turn decay
0o nourish these, when those have passed away"
Each and all of us take life upon certain condi-
tions, and are oft operated upon by circumstances
seemingly beyond our control. Those wonderful
laws through which we are living breathing hu-
man beings, and not mere crude matter, senseless
clods are wrapt in as much mystery as our condi-
tion In the new life But one deep conviction per-
vades every intelligent mind-aye, has . lurking
place even in that of the rude savage-that beyond
the borders of this life there is another and there
the disembodied spirits of mortals will be in happ-
ness or misery. Whence arises, why exists this
universal conviction unless it be implanted in
natures by the Great, Eternal Spirit2 The belief
of the savage in this doctrine may be compared to
his hut of mud and sticks while that of the of
learning would resemble the marble palace; but
both are houses in which to dwell.
Well, if we are ever to enter the blssful abodes
Of the future beyond the river of lfe must while
here into accord with what we feel to be the
attributes of superior beings. Leaving out the
question to the relations of Christ to his Father
we know that when he said, "As the tree falls, so
at hes" he spoke an ndisputable truth. Hence, If
our minds permeated with gentleness, charity,
geniality, purity, we not only ennoble ourselves
and prepare ourselves for this new life but we be-
come able to infect others with like traits and dis
positions. And now, at the dawn of year,
may with cheerful hearts act upon the living
conviction that this life is blessing intended for
otherwise should not be here), and that as it
is lived, in honor in shame, win enter with
honor or with shame into eternal homes

The Republican Candidate.

General GarfeId's career illus
trates in a remarkable degree the
possibilities of American life to one
born with strong brain in a strong
body, and gifted with industry,
courage, perseverance and a hioh
ambition. His father, a poor farmer
possessed Of sterile acres and a large
family, died when he was six years
old. He had no welI.to-do relatives
to help him along. In fact, he had
no help save the counsels of a wise
resolute, religions mother, and no
capital save what lay in his own
head and hands. With the labor of
his hands, put forth in the lower
forms OF honest toll, with the axe, the
hoe, the carpenters plane, and on
the tow-path of a canal, he gained
the means to obtain such education
as rural academy afforded. Then,
making a capital of his new store Of
knowledge, he taught country
schools, and got the means to take a
higher course of study. Equipped
with the training of a Massachusetts
college, he opened for himself path
10 life which began with the Latin
and Greek professorship of an OBJ
scure school in Ohio, and broadened
until il led to maj generalship in
the Union army, to a seat in Con.
gress held for nine consecutive terms.
to an election to the Senate by the
unanimous choice Of his party in the
Ohio Legislature, and now to the Re-
publican nomination for the presi-
dency. All these honors came to
him without solicitation, and without
effort on his part to grasp them. So
far as fate shaped his career in life,
1t was the career of day laborer.
Lis purposes, an indomitable will,
great capacity for work, fixed prin.
ciples, and good habits enabled him
to compel fate, and change that ca.
reer to one of conspicuous honor and
usefulness. Every farmer boy can.
not become a Major. General, SEN
ator, and Presidential nominee, but
tho lesson of Gar6eld's life is tina.
the institutions of this country place
no obstacles in the way of the poor.
est lad who tolls in the fields or the
workshop. Il is lesson tuli of en-.
couragement and cheer. 1t shows
that the country is not wholly given
over to the rule of political rings.
bosses, and conspirators, and that
one party at least is still strong
enough and wise enough to "pluck
from the nettle dagger the flower
safely" and to select Tor its leader a
man whose worthiness and fitness
are his only strength. 1t shows, too,
that in spite of all the changes In
our social fabric, brought about by
the growth of great corporations
and the accumulation of vast wealth
in q few hands, talent and manliness,
unaided by money, can still win
their way to the most exalted posi-
tons. The Presidency is not vet
sold to the highest bidder, nor dis.
posed of by junto of selfish pollti.

Grant County Mans Concurrence.

EDITOR HERALD Your leading
editorial in last weeks issue, upon
the selection of candidate for Con.
gross to be voted for at the Novem-
Der election, is certainly entitled to
very high respect for the candor and
,ruthtulness it displays in review of
the situation. Had the couterding
parties always heretofore followed
such counsels IN primary matters, our
present state of party Generalization
and discredit would happily have
been averted.
The best and most unselhshly de-
voted sentiment Of party has not
been allowed its proper might in the
administration of party, but has been
crowded to the rear by organized
gangs, set in motion and inspired by
self constituted candidates in pursuit
of personal ends, and wholly regard
less OF the common welfare.
What you state as to the steady
and growing loss to the Republican
party which Mr. Hazelton's candi-
dacy has inflicted upon the party, is
an unanswerable truth, and the won
der has been among those not init
mately acquainted with his character
that he should continue to press him
self upon the party, knowing, as he
must know, it to be at the expense of
his party.
1t is true, as you allege, that he
basely secured his feeble majority in
rs by liberal and unnatural Demo
cratic aid. He abused the Demo.
cracy through the canvass, and has
continued to abuse il in some pub.
tished speeches since; but it is safe
to say that all this source of needed
help will be cut eff in the future.
The Democracy had no regular
candidate against him at the last
election which left him free to ply his
peculiar and really powerful acts of
personal persuasion and barter among
the numerous Democracy not salts.
fed with King. Indeed, it was really
surprising to all, under the existing
disadvantages OF the time and ocoa.
sion, that Mr. King received so large
a vote. Had Judge Cothren been in
the field as the sole opposing candi.
date Mr. Hazelton would have been
beaten by large majority. No one
questions this.
We think that the Republican can,
didate whoever he may be,may safely
count on an opponent who will
gather to himself the solid Demo-
cratic vote at the November election.

Hazalton,s weakness as canaiaate
Gratios, wis. ynls Is. 1850.

GEAtlotB WIS., July Aot 1850.
EDITOR HERALD :-"Who for Con.
gress" is question, not of doubt, but
Of Importance, in this Congressional
District. Except one or two men in
this little burgh, so far as / have
learned, no honest Republican in La
Fayette county advocates Hazelton's
re nomination.
Republicans over here have the
habit of reading and rejecting for
themselves, and If Hazelton Is, as his
enemies assert, an incessant office
seeker, wa know him too well. He
came to this District ia 1868, settled
at Boscobel.; and the very next year
1861, did not he seour Graat county for
the nomination of District Attorney,
and in 1866 the same? In 1867 did
hen wheedle your county into nom-
mating him for State Senator and
in 1869 did he not the same ? In
1870, in 1874 and 1876; in 1878 and
in 1880; FIVE several times he has
been, and still is, an indispensable
candidate and beggar for Congress.
Not only SO, but in 1875, heard
Hazelton was at Madison, reckoning
the position OF Senator, in that con-
test which resulted in electing Angus
Cameron. In 1879, when Senator
Carpenter was elected, is it true
