The storm of Saturday was something
terrific in its tierceness. No such snow
storm has visited this section in years.
Every road was blockaded and even the
streets were almost mpassable. Travel
of all kind was suspended and business
was at stand still. Trains made no at
tempt at running that day, and those
that were out simply sought to reach the
nearest station. On Saturday night the
storm subsidei and on Sunday snow
shovels were brought into requisition.
The city looked like battle field, ragged
and torn and trenched. Almost every
business house has breastwork of snow
before 1t.
The railroad company sent out gangs
of men from this city, to make the track
clear for Monday. They encountered
considerably difficulty in deep cuts as the
snow was packed by the violence of the
storm.

THE village of Kevaunee was startlf

THE village of Kewaunee was startled
on Wednesday morning last by the an
nouncement that the county treasurer's
office was burglarized on Tuesday night
and $4,000 distracted. The money was
the state tax which the county treasurer
was about to pay over to the state treas
urer on the following day. The money
should have been paid over some time
before and the neglect of the treasurer to
do so has given rise to ugly rumors.
There was quite an amount of notes in
the safe which were untouched
The chairman convened the county
board and committee was appointed to
make Investigations and report to-day
The bonds of the city treasurer amount
to $50, 900. No clue was left by which
the robber can be detected.

ELECTION OF COUNTY JUDGE.
From the Nord-w..ten Feb. 1o)

! The Pilot has peculiar views, when he
suspects US to desire to stir up national
prejudices. No one has worked more
often for Irish or American candidates.
| even against Germans, than the Nerd
Weston and its editor. Often the sue
cess of the democratic ticket was render
| ed questionable on account of the impu-
dence and importantly OF incapable and
unfit Irish or American office-seekers, and
in nearly al cases the Nord- Weston, its
editor and his friends flung themselves in
the breach. and, when possible, hindered
q defeat of the party.
That this was no pleasant job, we pro-
baby need not assert, not that the pur-
pose is wanting US, any longer patiently
70 endure the impudence of the pretend
ed representatives of the English-speak-
ing population, numbering scarcely a
thousand votes.
The number of votes of the German
speaking population of our county is owe.
three times as large as that of the Eng
disappearing, and were the public offices
to be distributed accordingly, many of
the present officials would have to re-
main at home. But this we have never
claimed, and while we gladly grant to the
American Irish English population a
large share of the offices, yet we think
we are justified in claiming that those Of
fees in which the whole people have bus
mess to do, should be filled by persons
who speak the language of the great ma
jority of our population, provided always,
that the candidates are capable and hon
est.
1t may be Indifferent to the Germans
of our county whether the County Treas
urer speaks German or not, since he has
only to deal with officials, except in the
payment OF orders, and that even a deaf
and dumb person could do.
With the County Judge every body
has business, and it is important, that he
should be able to converse personally
with as many people as possible. There
fore we desire a county Judge who speaks
the German language, be he German,
Bohemian, Norwegian, or of any other
nationality.
But always, and under all circumstan-
ces, do We demand that the candidate,
whom we shall support, is capable and
honest.
This much is certain had the Irish
in our county the power that the Ger
mans possess, no German would proba.
bly, get an Office. The Germans are not
nativistic, but neither do they want to be
kicked.

We reproduce the above simply for the
purpose of showing the character of the
arguments used by the Northwestern.
That any intelligent person will be infu-
enced by such reasoning we have no be
lief. We have never given expression to
any sentiment which would give color to
the suspicion that we recognize national
ity in any thing pertaining to the duties
and functions of American citizenship,
and in giving publicity to the knownoth-
ing articles of the Northwestern we are
simply expressing the bigotry of one man
who is by no means an exponent of the
views OF those whom he traduces by pre-
tending to represent. So far as our &C
quaintance goes, the Germans of this
county are too intelligent to confound
qualifications for judicial position with
the nationality of candidates. The man
who seeks position through such channels
is contemplate and always merits the de-
feat which he is sure to sustain.
