Youthful Offenders.

Monday Albert Benke and Henry
Mayer, both juveniles, were arrested and
taken before Justice Halliger, charged
with stealing machinery brass from the
barn of H. PritzlafF in the First ward.
They were found guilty, Benke being seu-
fenced to the Industrial school at Wauke-
sha and Mayer fined $4,000 and share
of the costs of suit
On the complaint of j. HI. Sleeper
four youthful offenders named Fred Mink,
j. Reilly, A. Tillman and w. Wittig
were also arraigned before JusticeHalliger
for stealing different kinds of railroad
supplies, the property Of the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Company
consisting chiefly of copper boiler fues
and brass engine mountings. Their case
was adjourned over to the 7th of April.
The parties purchasing the stolen pro-
perty ought to be held up to the strictest
accountability for their action in the mat
ter. When articles of the character
mentioned are presented for sale the only
course it would seem for all honorably
disposed men to pursue would be to re-
fuse to have anything to do with the
goods and inform the authorities at once
of the circumstances.

Compromise and COnsprOne iser>

Compromise and COmprOne isers.
An honest effort is being made by
portion of our citizens to ignore political
affiliations in the selection of city officers
at the coming municipal election and en-
deavor to make everything in the contest
subservient to the carrying out of the
the compromise act of settlement as
passed by the legislature. So far, how
ever it cannot be claimed that the effort
has taken much root or bids fair to be sue
cessful, although the great and prime ob-
ject sought it is hoped may be obtained
through other sources in the end.
The compromise meeting held at Lower
Turner Hall last evening to hear the
chairman and secretary of the prelimin-
airy meeting held Saturday evening report
the city and ward committees who should
select the ward and city officers and the
transaction of further business was large
gathering and composed of citizens hay
ing very conflicting ideas on the city
bond question and the best way out of
our present difficulties. 1t was very
clearly not purely meeting of COM
promisers, such as its projectors intended
it should be. The great question at is
sue was lost sight of in the din of
warning democratic factions on the one
side and the opposition encountered from
the Union Leaguers present on the other.
J. A. Hall was chairman of the meeting
and under the circumstances stood his
ground we'll. Addresses were delivered
by Mr.. Hall, F. P. Brook, Senator Ben
nett, Charles III. Gardner, Thomas Baxter
and G.. Ruebhausen, all favoring the Hall
plan, with the exception of the latter,
but Messrs. Gardner and Baxter differing
materially with Messrs. Hall, Brook and
Bennett regarding the manner of pro-
cedure in placing the candidates for city
offices before the people. Without COM
ing to any definite determination as to
the selection of committees the meeting
adjourned over to Thursday evening at
the same hour and place.

see a circus-one dollar for every man,

Twenty thousand factory hands lost $685.
600 in wages by their absence from the
shop. At silk mill employing 1000
hands only six were at work. The Adams
and Phoenix manufacturing company mills
shut down entirely also the Barbour flax
spinning company. In fact, but. one mill
attempted to keep running, and that with
Indifferent success. In the locomotive
works about ten per cent. of the men were
at work. and at the great rolling mill but
eight per cent. The actual loss, therefore,
to the working class in wages and outlay
for tickets was about s3j, 600. The manu-
facturers estimate their losses (wages of
Overseers whos6 idleness was enforced,
loss through non production, water rent,
interest on capital, insurance and SO oD)
as at least 81. 600; grand total, $50, 600.
Moreover, the men, in many instances, be-
came thoroughly demoralized and didn't
feel like work on Saturday.

Stanley Matthews.

BY a vote of p to %, and after an in
teresting debate, Stanley Matthews was
yesterday confirmed justice of the fed
eral supreme court by the Senate of the
United States. We are sorry to say that
the Democratic senators must, for the
most part, accept the responsibility of
this successful cOnsummatiOn of a pOlit-
ical intrigue, set on foot by Hayes and
helped along by Garfield. For Mr.. Mat
thews, having no conspicuous fitness for
this high place, is rewarded with it for
his services in aiding the scandalOus
count-out Of Mr.. TiIden in Louisiana,
and in riveting that infamous result
upon the country by managing success
full negotiations with weak -kneed South
ern Democrats. Ina short term in the
United States Senate, Mr.. Matthews dis
closed a painful lack of statesmanlike or
judicial qualities. His evasivc course
on the money question was that of a
political demagOsue and his espousal of
the cause of corporations showed him to
be very dangerous man to put upon
a bench before which the relations of
these corporations, whose attorney he is,
with the general government must soon
come for adjustment. His constituents
in Ohio made mince meat of his aspira-
tiOns to bc his own successor when they
got Il chance to elect a senator for the
long term. 1t was then Hayes turned to
the supreme court rs an invalid hospital
for the worn-out politician.
The support and opposition to Mat
thews' confirmation respectively illus
trate the significance Of his appointment.
Senators Bayard, Edmunds and Davis,
the leading men of their three parties op-
posed him Mr.. Lamar, who has always
been too friendly to the corporate inter-
ests for Democratic notions, and Jones
of Nevada, bullionist and cOrporationist,
led the forces i'm his behalf. The New
York Times and SuM were against him
the World and Tribune for him Jay
Gould's private solicitations and Sam
Wards lobby dinners were invoked in
his behalf and these influences have pre-
vailed. 1t seems, however, that Senator
Sewell, of New Jersey, who is paired
with Senator Teller, voted for confirma-
tion, believing that Mr.. Teller would
vote the same way, whereas Mr.. Teller i'm
reply to a telegram sent him by Mr.. Ed
munds, says that he should have voted
against Matthews. As Mr.. Sewell's vote
was necessary to make the one majority
Matthews obtained, his confirmation
may yet be reconsidered and defeated.
1t is hard to see on what grounds DEM
ocrats can justify their votes for Mat
thews when so large portion of his own
party confesses his unfitness. We have
seen the supreme court once packed to
reverse the legal tender decisions and it
looks as if the outrage was repeated in
the interest of the Pacific railroad COM
panies, who want to get !: reversal of the
constitutiOnality of the Thurman act.
Matthews is on record against it and the
vote Of the new judges would change
the attitude of the court On this supreme
question.
