tions. 1t is little surprising how men
of apparent intelligence and firmness
of character in many things will al
low themselves to be manipulated by a
set of cornucopias Of this kind. If a
man has not made up his mind for
whom he will cast his ballot, he might
better remain away from the polls
than to east an unintelligent vote. A
vote cast openly for wrong is less to be
feared than one that is cast for you
know not what, or you know not
whom. 1t can not be doubted that q
large number of just such votes find
their way into the ballot box each year.

there will be demand for button -hol.

DENVER. Col, Oct. II, 1881.


! DEAR TRLEaRApH:-The contrast
lis so great between Denver as it is.
with its broad and dry streets, with
bright clear sky, and Omaha as it was
on last Thursday, with Its rain and
muddy streets, leads me 10 give you a
slight description of this place. Stu
lated, as it is, at an altitude of 5000
feet above the level Of the sea, facing
1.-THE great plains which stretch for
thousands Of miles to the east, and
the most beautiful sight l ever saw, is
the long range of mountains running
north and south just west Of the city,
Pixies Peak plainly visible on the
south, 70 miles away, looking about Is
Tor 20, with range passing the city to
north (some of the highest peaks COW
Tered with snow, terminating in Longs
Peak, Is miles away; elevation, 14,271
feet. Distances are so deceptive at
this altitude that it is not safe for an
eastern man to even guess. / was
at the depot at an early hour, talking
with railroad official about walking
out to the foothills just west Of the
city before breakfast. He said had
better not go, and asked me how far
thought it was. Isaid about two miles.
iSmilingly, he said it is just fourteen
miles from this street. The railroads
Icentering here have just completed a
beautiful depot Of red granite, 500
feet long, 65 feet wide, two stories
high, at a cost of 100000. A des-
cription Of the route over which the
Union Pacific Railroad passes has
been given so many times that could
tell nothing new about 1t. 1T is up the
Platte River, up, up. always up, over
vast plains stretching as far on either
side as you can see, the monotony only
broken by the occasional appearance of
cayote, antelope, or the more numer-
Gus prairie-dog. An exciting incident
is always a welcome relief to the mon
otony of long ride over the plains.
ESQ it was not unnatural that every
head appeared at the windows of the
cars when at one of the stations near
the line an intoxicated cowboy,
equipped with a broad-brimmed hat,
leather leggings. spurs, and lopg-lashed
whip, rode his mustang fnriously back
and forth from one end of the plat
form to the other, swinging his arms
wildly, his body swaying from side to
side, and cheering his own perform
ance as none other could. He was,
however, only good-naturedly drunk,
and, after giving us Il somewhat ex-
citing sample Of his horsemanship,
rode up to cal. window and begged |
pardon of the ladies for anything in
his conduct that might have seemed
rude, insisting that he was simply
having some fun with the boys. We |
left him waving an adieu as the train
moved from the station.
Leave tomorrow morning for Lead |
vile, Ola Denver & Rio Grande Rail- |
road, and if / see anything may tell |

The indications are that there will
be close run on the County Superln-
tendency. Whether Mr.. Middlecamp
is elected or not, there can be no doubt
that the county will hardly elect a bet
ter man. The preparation he has had
Is certainly not surpassed by that OF
any man in the county. His exper-
fences have all been of character
that would qualify him for the
thorough and systematic discharge OF
the duties of the Office. Mr.. Middle
camp is no politician. The office
should be q non.political one. A can
didate who is elected to an Office with
out opposition on this ground shoult
not dabble very much in politics with
out he wants to make the office a pollt'
zeal one. 1t is claimed that the pres
ent incumbent has taken larger
share in party contests than was ex
pected of one who received the office
from Republicans and Democrats to
gether. AS long as he holds the Office
that course of conduct will probably
be pursued. Such being the case, the
office might better be put into the
hands of a man whose politica
ideas are more in accord with those OF
the leading party in the county.

STRAY NOTES BYA WAYFARER

Election day will soon be here and a
question arises on the subject, "Will
the Republicans aid the Democrats to
gain the election by staying at homer"
There is not man on the ticket that
we need be ashamed of. Timme has
proved himself worthy of our trust
and confidence. Turn out, gentlemen.
and do your duty on the 9Th prox.
Don't be led astray by the prohibition
ticket. Before we can carry the state
or succeed in prohibition the state
must be imbued with temperance
principles and little effort has been
made in that direction. When the
various temperance organizations be-
gin to send lecturers out to convert
people to temperance principles in
stead of converting them to Sons of
Templars, the cause of temperance
will flourish, so will the Sons of Tenn
plars, and we may soon hope to carry
the state for temperance. A vote for

DEAR SIR: | send you, herewith,
copies Of the circular in which the
Wisconsin Managers of the Garfield
Monument Fund state the object of
this movement, and request you to
assist them in carrying it forward in
this State. They have decided to rely
upon the agency in the hands of our
County and City superintendent. in
organizing the work for raising such a
portion of this fond as can be secured
in Wisconsin. 1t seemed to them that
these officers and the teachers in our
schools would take special interest in
soliciting contributions towards the
erection of the monument over the
grave of the late President Garfield, not
only as tribute to the memory of an
eminent and noble man, but as a CRATE
full recognition of his services for the
cause of education in this country. For
several years he honored our profession
by teaching in the public schools and
in a prominent college Of his native
State; he conducted teachers insti-
tutes, and often presented addresses
before teachers associations; and on
the floors of Congress he championed
the progressive enterprises of our lead
ing school officers and teachers.
| II you accept the appointment as an
Assistant Manager, you will please
adopt such methods as appear to you
the most feasible in informing the
people in reference to this movement
| and in obtaining the contributions. II
you think best, the copies Of the cir
cular sent you could be furnished fol
publication in the papers of your sec
ton; and you could accompany the cir.
cular with your own statement in
which you give the names Of the per-
sons whom you associate with your
self in this work, and describe the plans
you have adopted for prosecuting it In
your county or city. 1t will occur to
you how the prominent citizens in the
different towns, villages or city under
your jurisdiction can be visited, and
how the teachers and schools therein
can become interested in aiding you.
Let me urge you to take prompt &C.
tiOn in this enterprise.

EDITOR TELEaRApH:- Sir There
is disposition on the part of some to
misrepresent Mr.. Vosburgh's position
on the temperance question, claiming
that he is so strongly in favor of tenn
perance that he would not concede to
the majority that which rightfully be-
longs to them if it were in his power
to prevent it. Ihave been intimately
acquainted with Mr.. Vosburgh for
twenty-five years, and, in justice to all
whom this may concern, l must say
that I find him man who does not
wish to force his opinions upon any
one. He is,as has been stated, temper
ance man, and, if his advice was sought
would be given, conceding to those who
might disagree with him, the respect
which their opinions are entitled to.
He stands on the ground that the ma
jority shall rule, conceding to the min
GRITTY the rights to which their numbers
entitle them. In regard to his stand
ing among his neighbors and acquaint-
ances, we have this to say: He is a
representative farmer and self-made
man, a native of the State of New
York. At the early age of seventeen
his ambitious spirit led him to try his
fortunes in the western country, where
by his great tenacity and ability, he
has won the reputation which he 81
justly bears of a successful farmer
and an honest man. Being dairy
man and cheese-maker, he is identified
with large portion of the farmers O
the courtyard iflelected as our repre-
sentative at Madison, will venture t.
assert that he will endeavor to advance
such legislation as will do the mos
good for the masses. He is a man WIN
has drawn the entire vote of his tow
kof both parties for chairman of tn
flown board for many terms, and | com
mend him to the voters of Kenosh
county as one who will make an abb
land efficient member, and one who vii
mot mar the brilliant record that ha
been made by our ex-members.
