A WORD AFTER THE ELECTION.

Mr.. EDITOR: The general election
which took place last week Tuesday for
the purpose of choosing state and county
officers, although not attended by any
unusual excitement, was nevertheless a
very animated one. The democrats
placed very superior state ticket in the
field, it being composed of men in whose
hands the interest of the people would
have been entirely safe and by whom our
public affairs would have been ably ad-
ministered. That the people generally
had implicit confidence in those men
whose names appeared on the state ticket
Is plainly shown by the result of the
election. And we believe, had the time
intervening between the conventions and
the election been utilized to the best pos
sible advantage by the democrats, they
undoubtedly would have triumphed.
But as was the case they were Indifferent
and too much attention was paid to local
officers. This was especially the case in
our county. The principal fight was
concentrated on Mr.. Nagle the candidate
for superintendent of schools. The OPP
ponents of MIR. Nagle displayed an in
dustry during the campaign and at the
polls which, had it been differently di.
rected, would have been quite creditable
to them. They assailed him in series
of rancorous and infammatory newspa-
per articles to an extent which should
add shame and remorse to their present
humiliation. Never was Mr.. Nagle heard
to utter an unfriendly word against his
opponent, from the beginning until the
close of the campaign. He depended
entirely npon the reputation which he
has built up in this community to secure
his endorsement at the polls. This was
the one and the only answer to the con-
temptible attacks made on him, end that
it defeated the plans of his opponents is
a matter for sincere congratulation. All
schemes to beat him have ANONYMOUSLY
failed. The people have asserted the
right to think and act for themselves and
they have done so. They have conspicu-
ously made known that they do not care
for the privilege of voting party ticket,
but that they are bound to support such
men as are strongly endorsed by the
most prominent citizens, on account of
their peculiar fitness for the position.
No pentup Blackwell's Island can con-
tract the powers of the people. This our
Office loving friends and backward poll
ticians ought to mark well and heed.

MAPLE GROVE.

Election day passed off very quietly.
Mr.. Mike O'Brien's new residence is
nearing completion.
Mr.. T. O'Donnell of Peshtigo, spent
last week visiting friends in this part.
Farmers, who two years ago, classed
their cedar swamps as waste land, are
now waiting for it to freeze up, in order
to shape the excellent timber into fence
posts, rail road ties, etc.
The incessant rain of the past 6 weeks
has rendered the roads almost impas-
sable, and farmers who are anxious to
dispose of this years produce to the best
advantage. find very tedious work in
hauling grain to market.
About two weeks ago Mr.. John Hogan,
young man who had Just arrived at the
age of manhood, was suddenly stricken
down with typhoid fever. His parents
and physician did their utmost to save
him from the hands of death, but their
efforts proved useless; and last Friday
morning he breathed his last.
Mr.. Patrick Burke of this place has
during the past four weeks lost three
children of typhoid fever. The oldest,
Patrick Burke, who died over three
weeks ago, was young man about 81
years old. He was a man whose genial
disposition made him a favorite with
young and old, and whose requirements
were such as are attained by few. Pre-
vious to his burial q younger brother
took sick and before two weeks elapsed
was also laid in the grave. The grief of
the sorrowfully afflicted parents at this
was indeed obvious; but all the more
when last Saturday they laid their
youngest daughter in the grave. The
afflicted parents have the heartfelt SYM
pathy of their numerous friends and ac-
quaintances. j. W. G..

DIED.

PELLET, Pellet died at Gibson, Wis.
November Sth, 1881. She was born in Con-
necticut, December 3lst, 1877. Her maiden
name was Sarah Powers.
Early in life she moved with her parents to
Pennsylvania, where, when little over twenty
years of age, she married Hezekiah Pellet. with
whom she lived over one-half a century, she
was the mother of several children, most of
whom are yet living. She was converted and
united with the Methodist Episcopal church
her death she held her membership at Gibson,
Wis. where she has lived ever since she and her
husband came west. Only two weeks before
her death. she was spry and active and was al
ways an early riser. She told the writer her
stay upon earth was short but she was ready to
go hence. Two weeks later l was called to her
bedside where she stated clearly her prospects,
saying, her faith was in God and she was anx-
ious to get home, and requested US to sing,
my latest sun is sinking fast,
My race is nearly run;
My strongest trials now are past.
My triumph is begun"
She was indeed good mother, conscientious
wife and devoted christian. During the IS
years of her residence IN Gibson, she had lived
so as to win the confidence and esteem of all
who knew her. and eonstran US to say "Blesett, "a
are the dead which die in the Lcrd.s The fu-
neral was largely attended, the sermon being
preached b the writer. and we laid her to rest
in the cemetery at Gibson by the side of her
hus5and. who ten years since went to his re-
| ward. J.F. TUBES.

COAL VS.. WOOD.

Allow US to submit a few figures TO our
readers for careful consideration, and we
know that they will arrive at the same
conclusion that we do, viz: That it is
going to be cheaper to burn coal than
wood this winter. Coal at present sells
for $3.50 per ton; wood at Sc per cord;
saving, splitting, etc., will bring it up
TO $3.50 per cord. 1t is generally esti-
mated that about 2 cords of wood are
equivalent to l ton of coal, or, reducing
our equation to dollars and cents, it takes
$50 worth of wood to equal $3.50 worth
of coal. Here is a chance for you to
make just 100 per cent in the cost of your
fuel the coming winter, and you can do
SO by getting @ coal stove. We have
been in both stores OF Wagner, Rand &
Co., and must pronounce their stock of
stoves complete in every respect, 1. e.,
size, style, beauty of design, etc. Among
others our attention was most particular
ly drawn to the "Westpoint, "West-
minister" and ''Alladin." These stoves
actually look gorgeous with their dress
of nickel plating. They not only look
handsome, but after careful examina-
ton, we can safely say, that perfection
in coal stoves has been attained in the
production of the above mentioned
stoves. For full particulars apply at
either store of Wagner, Rand & Co., ard
if DESTROYS of purchasing they will surely
satisfy you in regard to price. Look
towards the dollars land sense) of invest
ing in coal stove and remember that by
so doing you actually save 100 per cent.
in fuel.

cessful teachers of the state and would
undoubtedly, if elected, bring up the
standard of the Kewaunee schools.

The city is acquiring quite reputa
ton for incendiarism. So much proper
ty has been destroyed by fire lately and
under such circumstances as to preclude
the belief that it was accidental. Mr.
Torrison has lost considerable through
the secret Vaccinations of some enemy.
Mr.. N. B. Morse lost a barn and its con.
tents through the work of an enemy.
Last week an attempt was made to fire
the barn of g. w. Morse. The horses
and cattle were united so as to allow them
to escape, but an old horse fell and made
such noise that the evil disposed per-
son feared it would call some person from
the house, SO they aban doned the pro-
iect. Unfortunately a little clue which
was obtained the next morning was re-
ported around until it was OF no use in
the effort to detect the would-be incen.
diaries.
