NEVER before was there such q contest
in the congressional districts of this state
between the different candidates of the
parties which are in the ascendancy in
the several districts. In the second dis
trict Bragg and Delaney are straining
every nerve to secure success. Delaney
has large ability in political management
and is not scrupulous as to the means he
employs to compass his object. He has
worked Siih degree of energy border
ing on insanity, to reach congress, and
report says has prostituted his nationality
and exercised his invention in religious
matters to attain his purpose. It is not
30 very long ago that report made Mr..
Delaney responsible for shoddy attempt
to deny his extraction by changing his
Milasian patronymic delaney" to the
Frenchifed and more aristocratic form,
Delaney" not content with change
in form there was to be suggestion of
blue blood in sound as well as in form
and the "a" was changed from the flat.
plebian sound with which it must rest
content in the commonplace delaney, :"
to the full, rich Italian which may be
approximately represented by the diph.
thong saw" in 'DeLawny." We know
of nothing more despicable in politics
than an appeal to nationality, unless it
be an appeal to religious prejudice, and
when in the latter, man must play the
hypocrite and deceiver he sinks to lower
level than the most inveterate demagogue.
Every Catholic should have too much
respect for his religion to countenance
any attempt by a politician to make it
an instrument to further his political
schemes. When man not Catholic,
whose father is Protestant minister,
poses before the people for selfish pur-
poses as member of religious creed
with which he has no sympathy or con-
nection, he offers an insult to that faith
and shows his estimate of the people who
profess it.

THE Kansas republican state conyen-

THE Kansas republican state conven-
ton comes out squarely in favor of the
liquor prohibition movement in that
state. Whether there is, or is not, any
virtue in the proposed method of sup
pressing the liquor traffic. it will unques-
tionably be some time before the move
ment will gain any considerable support
in Wisconsin. There has already been
an abundance of good, wholesome legis-
lation enacted for governing the sale OF
liquor in this state, and yet in defiance of
this fact the dealers seem to thrive, and
drunkards are just as plentiful as ever.
If the laws on the subject, as they exist
at present, can not be, or at least are not
enforced. it is only idle to suppose that
more stringent measures would be means
of bringing abont the desired reform.

Ex-SEoRETARY BLAINE lately stated to
g reporter chat he was not candidate for
office but should always talke an active
part in politics. He rests on the reputa-
ton tie has already acquired as a states
man and leader among men, and thinks
no office or new achievement in the po-
litical field can add luster to TIE one or
greatness to the other. Identifying him.
self with Garfield and his administration,
he thinks his era has passed and he no
Longer desires to glory in victory or be
humiliated by defeat. Cherishing no
enmity for any one, revenge .,s eliminated
as an incentive, and friendship calls not
upon him to seek, for Office. In private
affairs and in the peaceful quiet of hap
py home he seeks and obtains that ease
and rest from the turmoil of life which
age and WEAKNESS loves to gain. Before
the country in various positions for the
best years of his life he leaves record
darkened in spots by the shadow of sus
picion and cloud of doubt through
| which the sunshine of honesty may never
penetrate. Always fearless and aggres-
sive, he never hesitated to throw himself
| into the arena of debate; and no matter
how questionable the character of the
measure he championed, or what his per-
sonal convictions were, he sank them
both unhesitatingly at the dictum of
party and made his manhood subservient
to its interests and to his ox n official ag-
grandizement.
A forcible and trenchant writer, a
smooth and oily politician, born diplo-
mast and withal an able statesman which
if backed Sy moral integrity and honesty
of purpose, would have made him ma
tion's idol. Certainly no other paper
on international laws, which left the
state department in a number of years,
can at all compare with that issued by
him on the Clayton-Bulw treaty.
Logic IVES its ground work on which
stood forth picture of the rights of his
country, painted in words as noticeable
| for their selection as for the clearness
with which they convey the meaning of
the author. His letter in behalf of Mrs,
Garfield to Gladstone has rarely if ever
been surpassed in epistolatory correspon-
denes. His diplomatic correspondence
with the various countries, so far as
language and arrangement are concerned,
! Is model of artistic literature. We ad.
mire not the man, but his abilities; and
while we deprecate his motives and ac-
tions, We are willing to accord him the
need of praise for aught that deserves it
in his long and varied career. No other
man labored so assiduously to keep alive
the smoldering embers of sectionalism
for on this foundation he reared the
structure of his greatness; and the truth
full historian of the future will be greatly
troubled to determine whether the life
and acts of James g. Blaine had been q
benefit or an injury to the material pro-
gress and advancement Of his country.

The general feeling that the represen-
tative from this district should be eonced-
ed to one of the lake shore counties, and
the desire that man should be selected
who can serve tie district with most
ability. will undoubtedly crystalline in
the candidacy of Hon. Joseph Rankin.
He stands preeminent among all candi-
dates, and no other man could so well
manage affairs as to meet the wants of
the district. Other counties will have
candidates, but Mr.. Rankin viii without
question be the second choice of those
tn which he does not stand first.

A PRELIMINARY examination was held
on the supposed ravishers of Miss En-
ma Bond. The evidence against them
was almost purely circumstantial but was
nevertheless streng and convincing
After the examination was concluded a
party of men gathered around the Jail
and took the prisoners out with the evil
dent intention of Iynching them. They
were finally persuaded to desist from
their purpose through the entreaties of
the counsel for the prosecution and the
father of Miss Bond, but not until each
of them had been suspended between
heaven and earth for a short time. They
vehemently denied that they were parti-
cipants in the outrage and protested
their innocence in the jaws of death. II
the evidence against them was perfectly
conclusive nothing would or should have
saved their lives. T rec brutes who
would violate the person of woman, who
never did them harm, after begging in
Gods name for mercy, deserve to have
the mercy shown to them that they
showed to others. It's al right to talk
about mob rule and lawlessness but the
most thing deserving condemnation in
their mode of procedure, is that they are
liable to sacrifice the lives of innocent
persons. IF those parties are really
guilty the speediest way to send them tc

GOVERNOR CULLoM of Illinois is q phi
losopher in a certain way. When the
mob at Taylorville took charge of the ac-
cused yiolators of Emma Bond, dispatch
to that effect was sent to the governor.
Instead of Immediately ordering ont the
militia as was expected, he lslegraphed
back for further particulars. The gov
ernor was evidently quite certain of the
guilt of the accused and wanted to give
the lynchers a chance. III the guilt OF
the prisoners had been fully established
