THE NORD-WESTEN'S IDEA OF
QUALIFICATIONS IN A
COUNTY JUDGE.
From the Northwestern, Feb. g.

From the Nord-W esteu, Feb 81
'"The tendency, on the part of the
Irish American element, to overreach
that of the German element in this conn
ty became quite apparent last fall. Not
withstanding that the Irish and Amer
leans are but diminutive part in the
population of our county, they are never
theless IL possession of al the Legislative
and half the county offices.
Assuming the possibility that Mr..
Braasch, Register of Deeds, seriously i'll
at this time, should die and the Governor
AS it is reasonable to suppose-fill the
vacancy by appointing an American, and
further. that in place of Mr.. Viebahn
who will leave us in the spring an Irish
man steps into his place, it would crowd
the German element, which polls two
thirds of the votes in this county almost
entirely out of Office.
But now, it is of the greatest import
ance that an official, such as the County
Judge, with whom great many Ger
mans have business to transact should be
able to speak German. Unfortunately
this has not been so to the present day.
We have German citizens here, who, as
far as competency comes into considera-
ton are equal to the best lrishman or
American and whose integrity of charac.
ter has been thoroughly tried. As it is
now, German who is not able to speak
the English, and has business before the
county court, is obliged to employ law
yer, and the latter at times charges enor-
nous fees that are always readily allowed
by the present County Judge. Even if
under all circumstances the services of a
lawyer should prove to be indispensable
there is no doubt but what all business
might be more cheaply and expeditions
ly transacted if the county judge under
stood the German language. We hear
that Germans, who are fully qualified for
that Office and who are fully possessed of
the confidence of our fellow citizens are
seeking nomination for that Office.
Would not the German population of
Manitowoc county find it to their interest
to pass that office into the keeping of an
honest and competent German?'

with a gun and without warning he
drew up and fired upon the party, disap-

,dead, pierced by the charge from the
'gun. Her affrighted sisters gave the
1alarm but could tell nothing of the muir
Iderer or his design. The whole section
was intensely alarmed and enraged.
Parties started to scour the country for
the murderer. From the uncertain de-
,scription given by the affrighted girls,
suspicion fell upon a Bohemian boy NAM

MEXICO, GERMANY AND AMERICA
The extension of the American railway
system into Mexico has created a good
deal Of alarm among the German houses
doing business i'll that country. If we
may depend on the statements made by
them in the German home journals their
interests are seriously menaced by the
present invasion ofAmerican spectators
They dread American competition, Amer
lean skill, and American enterprise The
German interest in Mexico is large and
They own nearly all the
breweries, control several Of the silver
smelling works, besides numerous factor
les, representing nearly every branch of
trade and industry. a heavy business is
done by them in iron and not a few of the
great commercial establishments are also
engaged in banking The fears Of the
German element in that country are in
all probability well founded. There is
no reason why Mexico should purchase
in Berlin what she can buy in New York,
Boston or Philadelphia Our merchants
have hitherto neglected this great and
growing market to the south of them.
The sister Republic is almost as little
known as Australia. The great obstacle
in the way has been the want of proper
facilities. which are now
in fair,way of being supplied. Germany
IS correct. The American locomotive
IS destined to revolutionize the trade and
commerce of that country.-Neao York

PROGRESS IN TEMPERANCE.

The time does not lie far behind us
lwhen in England statesmen and persons
/ belonging to the highest circles would
gscafcely ever rise from dinner table So
sber, and when frequent drunkenness would
snot itself disqualifv anybody from the
best society. 1t is well-known fact that
what was In former days the rule has now
become the exception-that frequent
drunkenness yielded to moderate indul-
ggence, and that it was prohibitory stat
cute but a more refined and exacting pub
slic sentiment that produced the change.
1 1t is an equally well known fact that less
sthan fifty years ago rum was a common
sdrlnk IN almost every New England fam
Fly, and that drunkenness was a very fre-
.quent vice, by no means debarring the
5yictim from public regard. This very
general habit yielded first not to law,
9but to the developme mt ola strong public
Ssentiment ayerse to it, and that develop
.ment was by no means strengthened by
4subsequent legislation. The number of
spersons there using stimulating drinks
moderately is now very large, but drink
Sing to excess has on the whole become
|. far more infrequent. Men still young
xmay remember the time when excessive
fdrinking was alarningly frequent in the
getty OF Washington, when night session
sof either house of Congress was scarcely
Sever anything else than drunken orgie.
swhen high officers of the government and
prominent public men would exhibit
themselves at dinner-tables and on other
spubllc as we'll as private occasions in the
most pitable condition, and when such
fthings would be accepted as little eccen-
sticities instead Of being treated as dis
Sgraceful. While Washington is now not
Gas virtuous place as it ought to be, yet
{ the improvement that has taken place
Z swithin comparatively short period is
slmmense, and it is owing not to any pro-
/ hibltory legislation, but to more refined
stone of society which permits moderate
5drlnklng while irowning upon every ex-
acess.
\ Formerly many people could not amuse
8themselves without getting drunk They
8have new learned to appreciate amuse-
sments of higher order which admit
4 moderate, but would only be spoiled by
excessive drinking. And there is the So
slution of the whole problem. The crav-
Sing for enjoyment will sometimes bring
forth vicious excesses. The evil can be
scured not by trying to stife the craving,
3 for thatis impossible, but by substituting
Sfor the vicious enjoyments pleasures that
{ are more refined and elevating. This ap.
4 plies to all classes of society with equal
force, especially in a country possessing
tgood system Of popular instruction. Of
8 all measures suggested for the correction
y of the evils complained of prohibitory
4 laws of sweeping character are the cru
s dest and therefore the least efectual.-
