ADMIRAL SEYMoUR's INSTRUCTION.
Admiral Seymour, it is understood,
has been advised by the government
that Turkey will send troops in Egypt,
aud he has been instructed to ascertain
the moment any Turkish troops arrive
in Egypt, whether they will act under
English directions. If the answer is
in the affirmative, and the admiral is
satisfied of its sincerity, he is to see
the Turkish troops properly arrayed
under English direction. If the an
swer is not in the affirmative, or, if
being so, the admiral is not satisfied
of its sincerity, he is instructed with
out option to forbid their entering
Egypt, and take all necessary steps tc
sec they return to Turkey, The
government las received, by way OF
Berlin, proof positive that Turkey
means to occupy Egypt on her own
account.

Wood county is fast becoming one
of the most attractive counties in the
state for foreigners seeking homes.
The lands on the west side Of the riV-
err are heavily timbered, and the farm
er is able thereby to support his fam
lily and make money while clearing suf-
fcient land from which he can raise a
crop. The soil is rich and produces
excellent grains and vegetables. Wheat
is not sown much, but is quite thrifty
in some localities The farmer is also
blessed with an abundanceof pure water
and good wood, two of the principal
set backs to the Dakota prairies,
Farmers with the same amount Of
money invested, can do just as we'll in
Wood County as they can on the best
land in Dakota. A great many are
disappointed in the Dakota prairies, as
far as farming is concerned, the land
being often misrepreSented.

The c. NJ. & St. 2. Comp has
finally decided upon the construction
of A liue north from Merrill, with the
view of heading off the Mil. Lake
Shore & Western Company, whose ex-
tention to the Wisconsin River Rapids
is now in process Of construction.
Surveyors are to be sent north at once,
and the line is to be located in north
ernly and slightly northeasteriy direc-
ton, to point near Pelican Rapids.
From thence the survey will be con-
tinued directly north to the state line
and thence to point in Ontonagon
Co, Mich. Both the Mil, Lake Shore
Il Western and Chicago, Milwaukee &
St. Paul roads will compete for the
rich mining products Of Ontonagon
Co, and will develop a territory which
until now has been comparatively un-
unknown, owing to the fact that its
resources were inaccessible. The work
on the st. Paul extension will probably
not be begun until next year.-Ntl.

The American Lumber Company
has purchased from the Detroit, Mack
inaw & Mar luette Railway Company
the standing pine on its entire land
grant, except in Mackinaw County and
the east part of Chippewa County.
This comprises some 100000 acres,
and it is expected that the yield will
amount to several hundred million
feet of pine. The Company has also
purchased of the same company about
100000 feet of pine on the
Iquaquanonon River, in Chippewa
County. 1t has also purchased about
$50, 100000 feet on the waters
tributary to the Ontonagon River.
This gives the Company the entire
control of the largest body of pine in
the Northern Peninsula. Several
large mills are being erected.

THE MoRMoNs.-The Mormon
leaders are quietly at work to render
the Edmunds law imperative. They
are securing the withdrawal of all
polygamists from Office and filling their
places with Mormons who have only
one wife each. The apostles, elders
and other saints who have a plurality
of wives, have changed their domestic
arrangements so as to ostensibly keep
but one. There are numerous Nor
mons who have but one wife, and with
these the Offices can be filled. Polyg-
amy will cease to be openly professed
and will merely be practiced. Mean
while the law will produce little or no
effect in solving the Mormon problem.
The Mormons will remain masters in
Utah in spite of it. They are
Democrats in politics and doubtless
hope to succeed in getting into the
Union as State whenever that party
gains control Of the National Govern
ment,

We hear much said nova days
about persons who have an earnest de-
sire to see law and justice upheld,
called fanatics, hot heads, ETC., by the
lower classes and the so-called liberals.
We notice however, that this moral
clement of law abiding citizens seem
to be a large per cent. of the entire
people of the State, Judging from the
numerous reports Of prosecutions
taking place in different parts of the
state. In Milwaukee the petition to
close the theatres on Sunday has made
a most wonderful stir among its citi-
zens and will result in great good
Brave, and law loving men and women
have come to the front and are fight
ing the turbulent element in Milwau-
kee, using all legitimate means to
prevent further dissertations of the
American Sabbath. The Sunday
Telegraph in its last number contained
one full page which was devoted to
the Sunday question. This little
lea7en will doubtless leaven the whole
lump. More recently we notice
in the Wausau Central the follow
ing under the head of
MARATHON CITY JUSTICE.
The proceedings against the saloon
keepers at Marathon City for viola
ton of the Sunday law. resulted just
as was anticipated. They were all
acquitted although they admitted
their guilt. 1t may be a trifing
matter to outsiders, but the jury who
found verdict of not guilty have
perjured themselves in the law and
ought to the punished for it. The
fact that it has been customary at
Marathon City to violate the law. is a
matter that might be urged in fixing
the grade Of punishment, but that it
S sufficient to set aside a direct pro-
vision of the statute is a doctrine so
monstrous that honest men must
shudder at it. Jurymen should
understand that when they take an
oath to render verdict according to
the law and evidence, it means just
what it says, and although the law
may not be such law as they favor,
yet it is law just the same and must
be obeyed until repealed. What can
an honest, conscientious man find to
crafty his conscience in such verdict.
1t is neither according to law nor &C
cording to the evidence. It is not
enough to say that the law is unpop-
ular and is constantly violated. 1t
should be obeyed SO long as it is on
the books. We care nothing for this
Individual case. It is the tendency of
men to disregard solemn engagements
that we protest against. The safety of
our institutions depends upon the
honest, faithful and impartial admin
iStration Of justice. The scales of
justice are not at an engine house In
Wausau and out of balance in Mara
thon City. 1t should be the same in
one place as the other. A jury can
not disregard their oaths wilfully and
palpably without loss to themselves
and danger to the community. There
is no middle ground to stand on; no
discretion to be used. The boundary
is distinct and we'll defined, and any
iuryman who crosses the line is no
longer worthy of citizenship or place
among honest men.
