The July term of the Quarterly
court met on Monday, with only
half the bench sitting. The usual
releases and reports were disposed
of. The court appropriated $3.50 90
towards building a county hospital
in conjunction with the city. A
committee was appointed to exam
inc the cost of the smallpox case
and pay the county's part of the ex-
pense. The assessed value of prop
erty for 1882 falling off 100000 the
court levied five cents more for
county purposes, making the cOun-
ty tax proper twenty cents instead
of fifteen cents. The privilege tax
was fixed the same as State for
county and same as State for Court
house.

Work will commence each place at 10
a. m. of the first day. Each applicant
should come furnished with legal cap
paper, pens, blotters and good INK. All
persons, not already qualified, who ex-
pect to teach in this county during the
soming fall and winter, will find it to
their interest to attend some one of
these examinations, as certificates can
not be legally Endorsed or renewed, and
private examinations will be granted
only when good reasons are given for
not attending some one of the regular

work outlined in the Syllabus and done

remarks thereon as given in the School
Code, published in 1880, or found, be-
ginning on pages 90 and &C, School

No Desire for q Change.

There appears to be something wrong
with the enthusiasm for the ex-boss in
Dane county. According to the Madi-
son ring that subdivision of Badgerdom
is fairly bubbling over with affection for
Reyes. When this affection, however,
has to be assisted by personal appeals
TO district conventions, by sprung eau
cuSes and other methods so well known
to the ring, it is a mooted question
among outsiders whether the enthusiasm
has penetrated beneath the surface soil.
This lack is somewhat balanced by the
eXtrayagant warmth of feeling shown
by the faithful few who are doing mis-
sionary work for the ring in other por-
tons of the district. These advocates
of the Reyes dogma are generally dis
tinguishable by u soreness of the scalp.
They seem to feel that unless they can
achieve a new deal their talents are
likely to remain hidden under a bushel.
and, like Hamlet their occupation will
be gone. but unlike the noble Dane they
would flee from present evils to others
they know not of.
True their efforts thus far have not
been crowned with that degree of sue
cess which would seem to a
continuance in the faith. This is doubt
less owing to the valuable time which

The agony in the Seventh district is
over and Hon. c. NJ. Butt, of Viroqua,
Vernon county, takes the persimmons.
This gentleman was originally put for
ward to keep o. b. Thomas, of Prairie
du Chen, from capturing some of the
Vernon county delegates. The scheme
was a success but on entering the CON
vcntion the Vernon county delegation
obstinately refused to forsweaI allie
glance to their candidate and this
obstinacy resulted in the nomination of
Butt. The nominee will be remembered
by the members of the old twenty-fifth
regiment rs captain of Company A. in
that regiment afterwards serving as
major and lieut. col. Mr.. Butt is said
to be a man of solid parts. a good pub
lie speaker and one who is held in high
esteem by his fellow citizens of Vernon
county. His choice appears to give
general satisfaction.

OF withdrawing with their wares should
the Sunday proposition be decided in
the affirmative. The neck of woods was
not to the queens taste or the managers
either but they have finally decided that
six days in The week are quite sufficient
for all purposes.
The decision is undoubtedly a wise
one. The success of the exposition
financially depends in a great measure
upon the support it receives from the
country. While country people are not
apt to go around with their 'puritani-
CALI ideas upon their sleeves they still
retain some respect for the sabbath day
and do not care to have it turned into q
continental holiday.
Having reached this stage of the pro-
ceedings it now remains to be seen what
the beer barons are going to do about it.
1t is barely possible that they may de-
eide to attend strictly to their legitimate
business and leave the government of
this rapidly developing state where it
properly belongs, in the hands of the
people.

none the less true for being % blindly
u~nreasoning. After all based on the

a common meaning in Grant county, as

ascertained by painful experience that
