THrs gentleman was made the
unanimous nominee of the Republi-
can convention, held at Dodgeville
to-day, for the office of Circuit Judge.
Our first choice was that of Mr.. vii
son; next to him, there is no person
in the district we would more cheer
fully support than Mr. Clementson.
He is gentleman possessing
ability equal to the position, and
of many years experience in the
practice of law. His character is,
in the general acceptance of the word,
above reproach; and, if elected, will
do honor to the office.
In our next issue we will endeav-
or to give more extended notice.

A CARD.

As, for the past few years, the un.
dersiened will necessarily be unable
to give direct personal attention to
the management Of the TRIBUNE,
though still retaining interest there
in: Is. J. Bennett, will continue as
one Of the publishers and editors,
with Mr.. John B. Teasdale as asso.
ciate.
The public of Iowa County need
no introduction to Mr.. Teasdale. He
is widely known as one Of her most
energetic, reliable and esteemed
young men. From his association
we confidently expect increased IA
ror for the TRIBUNE and desirable
growth of business, the advantages
of which the public shall realize
and enjoy equally with the publish
crs.
AS special representative Of the
TRIBUNE, Mr.. Teasdale will, as often
as practicable, visit the people at
their homes and elsewhere, with
full authority to transact any busi-
ness connected with this Office.
That his reception will be pleasant
and profitable we have no doubt.

the convention should take some
action upon the subject; he stated
that it was represented to the appor-
tionment committee at Madison that
but two or three politicians were
DESTROYS of claiming two districts
for Iowa county; that he believed
the entire county were practically
unanimous for it, and if the conyen-
ton would adopt resolution stating
its sentiments upon the question
that it would present the matter in
its proper light before the lcgisla-
tive committee. Mr.. Smoker, in a
few remarks, seconded the sugges-
tions of Mr. Allen, and on motion
Of j. B. johnson, a committee of
two from each assembly district was
appointed to prepare resolutions up
on the question. The chair appoint
ed Messrs. Joseph Bennett, J. =.
Smoker, w .A.Jones and Phil.Allen,

Chief Justice Cole, of the Supreme
Court, delivered an opinion Tuesday
declaring the act of last winter,
providing for biennial sessions of
the Legislature, to be constitutional.
The long letter from Mrs. Scoville
to Mrs. Garfield which has been
pretty thoroughly circulated through
the daily papers, will not be answer
ed by Mrs. G. so near friend says.
Her position is about correct, being
as follows: "Toward the SLAYER of
her husband she cherishes no malice.
He must answer only to his God
and the American people. For the
sister and all members of his family
she feels only profound pity. Fur
Their than this, she askes to be left
alone with her sorrow and to be
spared being dragged into useless
and torturing publicity"

The best of reports come from
the growing winter wheat. Every
thing indicates great crop the com
ing season. The open winter has
enabled farmers to do great deal
of outside work generally delayed
until spring. This will largely in
crease the acreage of all kinds of
grain, and the outlook is cheering.
Such are the opinions of the Inter
Ocean, after a careful view of the
situation.

THE Legislature of Utah, in the
name of the "Bill of Rights" which
has "cost so much precious blood"
in the name of the Constitution
and the "stars and stripes of our
country's banner" ask Congress not
to pass law making it an offense
for one man to live with six women
in the relation Of husband and wives.
This is very pathetic, but the old
boys will have to come to it. If a
saint has more than one female in his

do. There must be nc discrimina-

Congressman Williams of this
state has succeeded in securing the
passage of bill to restore to the
Japanese Government the surplus
Of the indemnity paid to the United
States seventeen or eighteen years
ago. Ii was little better than steal
ing to keep this money so long, and
the United States, which we proudly
believe represents the highest type
of civilization on the globe, has
furnished a very poor example of
national honor to the heather that
sit in the darkness patiently awaiting
the return of the money of which
they were unjustly deprived.
