ing more capital have more power,
and to protect him from any social
custom, trade, or business, the inevita-
bic tendency of which is to lower the
standard of public morals, debauch
the public conscience, weaken the in
tegrity and loyalty of the citizen,
waste the resources of the common
wealth, and make the voter a less
prosperous, a less happy, or a less in
telligent or loyal man To this end
bureau Of labor statistics should be es-
tablished that the antagonism between
labor and capital, often imaginary and
always unnatural, may be better un-
derstood and settled upon Il fair and
just basis. The subject of Civil Ser
vice Reform" upon which so much
has been said and so little done,
should be treated as an Independent
factor in our political system, and re-
ceiveprompt and heroic treatment, and
the same may be said Of polygamv.
If elected, my best efforts shall be
directed to antagonizing these infu-
enCes which seem to me to be destruc-
tive Of the general welfare of the ma
ton, the state or the citizen; and in
aiding in such measures as tend to
make them stronger, better and purer,
as | understand them, owned or con-
trolled by no interest, or aggregation
Of capital, or combination Of persons,
but owing to whole people an energet-
ic, honest, and faithful service.
After the speech of Mr.. Price, H. S.
Humphrey was called upon and made
very effective speech, after which
resolution was presented by a gentle
man from Trempaleau endorsing the
action of President Arthur in vetoing
the River and Harbor bill. Hon. H.
l.. Humphrey was called upon again,
for an explenation of the bill, which
he gave very forcibly, and upon mo-
ton of Griff O. Jones the resolution
was laid upon the table. The conven-
ton then adjourned sine die.

Ovation 10 Price.

A Black River Falls telegram to
the st. Paul Pioneer Press says:
The people of Black River Falls
turned out Ell mass tonight to meet
Hon. W. t. Price, who was nominat-
ed for congress at Eau Claire to-day.
4 procession of several hundred peo-
pie, headed by the brass band, con-
Quoted Mr.. Price to the Opera house,
where he addressed mixed crowd.
The meeting, composed of people of
all parties, unanimously adopted the
following resolution:
Resolved That we, the friends and
neighbors OF Hon. w, T. Price, re-
gardless Of political faith, faithfully
plcdge~oursclyes to support him in the
coming election for congressman from
Eighth district of Wisconsin.
William T. Price Is native of
Pennsylvania, was born at Barre,
Huntington county, in 1924 and came
to Wisconsin in 1915, settling at Black
River Falls. Most Of the time since
then he has engaged to greater or
less extent in numbering. In 1851 he
was elected member of the assembly,
and in 1857 was elected state senator,
being again elected in 1870 and 1871.
In 1858 he was elected Judge of Jack
son county. From 1862 to 1864 he
was collector Of internal revenue. He
has held many local Offices Of trust
and emolument, and is now president
Of the Jackson County bank and one
of the heaviest lumbermen in Wiscon-
sin. To all these positions Mr.. Price
has brought ability and energy, which
has made him leader rather than
follower. Mr.. Prices political record
has been a notable one, and although
q republican, he has been at times in
clined to follow stringent financial
gods, tavoring a government legal ten
der and the payment of bonds in
greenbacks. In the state legislature
Mr.. Price has been an ardent and ac-
tive worker i'll the cause ofprohibition
and if memory serves, one of the fore
most advocates of the female suffrage
6iiHtutIIlClIt' AS d ItIl pcItllCc uldn
he has not his equal in the State, if in
the West. He has done more the
past twenty years to make sentiment
on the drink question than any other
100 men in the State, and he has Civ
en- more money to the total abstinence
cause than any other 200 men in the
State. Mr.. Price is good hater, an
open enemy, and loves a square fight,
of which he has had as many, politi-
cally and otherwise, as any man in
public life in Wisconsin. He is noted
for the originality and vigor of his
blasphemy when occasion demands,
and is a lively opponent in debate.
His last appearance in active politics
was during the Keyes-Cameron-Saw-
yer senatorial contest, when he work
ed in an out of season for his friend
Sawyer Mr. Price is generous, to a
fault, and his charities are widespread
and judicious. In congress Mr.. Price
will range himself on the side of the
radical protectionsists, and will be
heard from on the floor Us well us in
the committee rooms.

3 Gentle Hint To Card Players.

When Nevada Jones was out here
to nominate Hayes for the Presidency
that was not precicely his object.
but it was the net result Of his labors
he said to the writer at Jake Aug's;
"We are called a rough, rude spoken
people. On the contrary, we are a
poetic people. Poets are mountain
born, and smile pours as naturally
into our speech as milk flows into the
throats Of infancy. For instance, a
mountain, wooded, on the sides and
bare on the peak, is called timber
land. Hence a bald-hcaded man is
timber-land son Of a sea-cook.' Crude
poetry, as you see. | viii give you an
illustration Of our polished manners.
My uncle, the Colonel and myself
were seated at a game Of poker.
with a one eyed man. We all
noticed when it came the turn Of the
latter to deal, that the cards were not
mingled with that impartiality which
contributes 10 an even distribution of
the favors Of the blind Goddess for
tunes. Presently my uncle said; 'Iets
liquor" The forbidden fluid was
brought. Now, gentleman, said my
uncle, "ict's have a new deck" The
new pack Of cards was brought.
Now, gentlemen" he continued look
ing at the gentleman with the single
organ Of vision, 81 like a square game
Of draw ;ts well as any man in Neva-
da; and | hope none of you will re-
gard it Is personal when | say, let's
all agree that the SON Of a sea cook we
catch cheating with this deck of cards.,
we'll put out his other eye"

LecturIng the Canadians.

LONDON, July 28.-The Times,
commenting on the address of the
Canadian parliament to the queen i'll.
favor Of home rule for Ireland, says:
The respectful phrases in which the
address is couched cannot blind any
one to the fact that it amounts to a
vote Of censure to the government and
encouragement to its avowed enemies.
We are at a loss to determine whether
the circumstances Of the address is
simply a dodge to catch Irish votes
1t ought to be regarded as an aggra-
vation or excuse for ofienses, if a more
charitable view be taken.

Rescued from The Grave.

1T sounds like a good deal to say,
but | once knew a man who died and
was buried on the overland trail to
California, and afterwards made his
temperance in the placer mines at
Prickely Pear City; and it wasn't his
ghost either, but himself in the flesh. )"
This was the reply which well known
resident of Halena, Montana, made to
a reporter. ''In the spring of 40"
continued the citizen, "when the Cali
fornia gold excitement was at its
height, in company with large party
[ crossed the plains. After getting
we'll under way the cholera broke out
among us and several died. Among
other deaths was that of man named
w. H. Clark, of Henry county, Mis-
souri,. We buried him near the point
where the old Santa Fe trail crossed
the Arkansas river. We had no cof-
fin but wrapped him in his blankets,
and enclosed him in a covering of
bark stripped from the cottonwood
trees, we planted him about seven feet
deep in the sand, and piled logs on
the grave to keep the wolves from
digging him up. The next morning
we moved on. | remained in Cali
fornia till 1865, and was then attract
ed to Montana by the gold excitement.
In 1868, while in the diggings at
what is known as Montana City, l was
startled at meeting Clark, whom with
my own eyes [ had seen buried on the
Arkansas river nineteen years before.
The recognition was mutual, and at
my expression Of surprise he related to
me that after our party had buried
him and proceeded on toward Cal
ifornia, q party Of Indians came along
and seeing the new made grave, dug
him up for the sake of his blankets
and clothing. As he showed signs of
life they applied restoratiyes, and the
result was that he was brought back
to life and health He lived among
the Indians for years, and aGerward
came to Montana. There is absolutely
no doubt as to Clark's identity, and he
is now living at Prescott, Arizona, l
believe.-[ Halena Independent

Rhyming Table of Presidents.

columns of communications an inquiry concern

States. l had a recollection of having clipped
several such lists from papers, and looked then

The poorest girls in the world are
those who were never taught to work.
There are thousands of them. Rich
parents have petted them; they have
been taught to despise labor, and are
perfectly helpless. If misfortune
comes upon their friends, as it often
does, their case is helpless. The
most forlorn and miserable woman
upon earth belongs to this class. Ev-
cry daughter should be taught to earn
her own living. The rich as well
as the poor require this training.
The wheel of fortune rolls swiftly
around-the rich are very likely to
become poor and the poor rich. Skill
to labor is no disadvantage to the
rich, and is indispensable to the poor.
Well-to-do parents must educate their
children to work. No reform is more
imperative than this.

Not a Fast Train.
THE VIcIsstrUpEs OF TRAVELLER ON A
WESTERN RAiLRoAp.

| On some Of the Western roads they attach
a passenger car to freight and call il
''mixed." 1t isn't in the order of things that
such trains should travel very rapidly. and
sometimes there is considerable growing
among the ''traffic"
'Are we most there. CONDUCTOR" asked a
nervous man for the hundredth time "Re-
member that my wife is sick and ! am anx-
ious"
"We'll get there on time" replied the con-
ductcr stolidly.
Half an hour later the nervous man ap-
preached him again.
Il guess she's dead now" said he mourn
| fully, ''but I'll give you little something
extra IT you could manage to catch up with
the funeral. Maybe she won't be so de-
composed but what would recognize her."
The conductor growled at him and the man
subsidized.
Conductor" said he, after an hours
| silence, Conductor, if the wind isn't dead
ahead, | wish you would put on steam, I'd
like to see where NV wife is buried before
the tombstone tumbles to pieces! Put your
self in my place for moment"
The conductor shook him Off and the
man relapsed into profound melancholy.
II say, conductor" said he, after y long
pause, 1--WE got note coming due in three
months. Can't you fix il so as to rattle
along litte?"
III you come near me again I'll knock
you down. shouted the conductor, savage
ly.
The nervous man regarded him sadly and
went to his seat. Two hours later the con-
ductor saw him chatting gayly and laughing
heartily with brother victim, and approach
ed him.
"Don't feel so badly about your wife's
death"
Time heals all wounds" sighed the ner-
vous man.
And you are not so particular about the
note" sneered the conductor.
Not now. That's all right. Don't
worry, I've been figuring up, and find that
the note has outlawed since spoke to you
