ARTEMUS WARD AND THE "AIOHI6AN

unfortunate TO get things mixed, but never more
SO than when one is sick Then 1t is that the right
thing In the right place is wanted more than at any
other time in life. or under any other
circumstances. 1t is pleasure for us to
note in this connection, the experience
OF our esteemed fellow citizen, Colonel Samuel b.
Taylor, whe, al is well known. does not ges things
mixed In recent communication he writes: 81

Guided to try it. more as an experiment than with
sny hope OF good results. can with great pleas
IRE commend it to otbers. for the reason that

ment coming from one Of the very forem ost
aTyeis d our state, well and widely known,
carries with 1. degree Of importanc, and
sU Resaveness which cannot be overesti-
mated. From our own druggists We learn
the following, in response to this wonderful al
article. Mr.. H. II Burrell says: Having sold st.

OLe OF the curious things In connection With
the administration OF affairs OF European
cities, which are proverbiany slow In toleratfng
any change, is the fact that several OF them
have adopted and are now laying down wooden
payements Ia the carriage Way OF some OF
their leading streets, notwithstanding that the
utter worthlessne5S of that kind O.: pavement
has long since been most concIuSively e5tab-
iished on this side OF the Atlantic. This Is
notably true OF London, where, OF all other
places the wooden blocks would seem to be
the most unit among the most unsuitable
STYLES that could be devised. Yet In that city
they have been laid down In Regent street, In
the strand and In Fleet street, which are
among It's most important thoroughfares In
Amsterdam, too, that very citidel of slow
going conservatism, the American invention
has also found its way, and on one of the
leading streets OF that city the blocks have
been laid IL Is not strange that the expert
ment or wooden blocks should have been
tried extensively In this experimenting
country, where lumber is comparatively plenty
and cheap; but that they should be able to
make any Roadway In two such old fogy
countries as England aud Holland, WHERE
every block used must be I'm ported az very con.
siderable cost, and where other and better

PROBATE JUDGE.

But few weeks intervene before
the election of Judge of the Probate
Court of Kenosha county. All realize
the great Importance of the Office and
the necessity of selecting capable and
thoroughly qualified man to fill it.
This is a matter which sh ould COM
mand earnest consideration, and should
be thoroughly discussed and canvass
ed by the voters The Importance is
one reason for again bringing the mat
ter to the attention of the public.
From further canvass of the matter
with Republicans with whom We
have come In contact, We Judge Myron
A. Baker, Esq, would be an acceptable
candidate. He has the reputation of
being fairly successful lawyer, and is
we'll read in his profession. The people
have recognized his ability, and several
times have called upon him to serve
them in public offices. In the spring of
1865 he was elected justice of the
peace for the city of Kenosha, and
served the full term. In the spring of
1868 he was reelected for another two
years term, but resigned in the fall of
1859, when he was elected district at
torney for Kenosha county; and, being
reelected, served two full terms,
amounting to eight years. He has also
served two years as city attorney, and
held the Office OF court commissioner
for six or more years. If we are cor
rectly informed, he has had experience
in the probate Office az assistant, under
the administration of Hon. I. W.
Webster and Hon. Anthony Van
Wyck. In all his public duties he has
meritea the approval, Well done, good
and faithful servant" As man, Mr..
Baker is industrious, honest and fru-
gal; virtues acquired in the school of
adversely; and such virtues are not
out of place in a county judge. Mr..
Baker proved his loyalty and patriot
ism by enlisting in the volunteer SER
vice, and periling life and limb to
maintain the Union and preserve lib
erty; and he has no fellowship with a
democracy that sought to place the
government in control Of the men who
fought to destroy it.
If the people of Kenosha county
have claims on Mr.. Baker because of
his ability to serve them officially, Mr..
Baker has claims on the people on ac-
count of good and faithful services
rendered them.
J. NJ. Stebbirs, Esq, who has served
the people in various public offices, is
mentioned prominently in connection
with the Office of Judge of the Probate
Court. Mr.. Stebbins' qualifications for
the Office are undisputed. His claims
will doubtless be presented before the
Republican County Convention to NOM
mate candidate for County Judge.

refer to the fact that the law appropri-
ates annually, to county agricultural
societies, 500. The state and some
other important agricultural societies
receive larger appropriations. The
state agricultural society is in debt,
and a bill was introduced to increase
its appropriation to $1,000. For the
purpose of casting odium on this, bills
were introduced appropriating large
sums to every agricultural society In
the state the appropriation for Keno
sha county was named at $1,000.
When the bills came mp in the senate,
Hon. J. v. Quarles made an eloquent
speech against all class appropriations.
The appropriations to agricultural So
cieties may appear to be class appro-
priations, because they benefit farmers.
The appropriations are for the purpose
of promoting the improvement OF agri-
culture, which is the bed rock of a ma
tons prosperity. When agriculture
fourishes so does trade and commerce ;
and all other classes reap as large a
share of the prosperity as do farmers.
We look upon Senator Quarles' speech
as ill-timed, and feel that he lacks a
true appreciation of the intents and
effects Of these small appropriations to
promote the Improvement of agricul-
ture.
