General Passenger Agent Barker, of the
Wisconsin Central Road, announces the
fact in a circular to conductors. The
rate is to be cents per mile, as at pres
ent. Among the roads to be represented
at the meeting next month will be the
following: Chicago, Milwaukee & st.

and it is believed that if the Wisconsin
roads should take the initial step, the
roads of other states would soon follow
their example.

In memory of Mrs. Mary Sutton who
died at her residence in the town of ely
man, Dodge county, Wis, Sunday, Au-
gust Goth, in the SD year of her age.
She leaves family of 7 children; also a
large circle of relatives to mourn her loss.
Her husband, John Sutton, died Septem-
Der 18th, 1877, from stroke ofparalysis
She was loved and honored by all who
knew her.
She Is sleeping, sweetly sleeping,
While the winds low wailing moan
Chant a requiem solemn, sadly,
Ger the spirit quickly flown.
Short seemed the years she dwelt among US,
When she heard her Savior's call!
eyes come" and twilight shadows
Found her resting meath the pail.
She has left q world of sorrow,
She has done with weary care
She will know q brighter morrow,
With angelic spirits fair.
Did she think of her dear children,
Who will now be sad and lonely,
VIII she ask our Lord to guard them,
Bending low before His Throne?
Though the tomb between them lieth,
Though she dWells in bliss above,
Her fond and ever loving Children
All yet share her prayers of love.
There calmly rest dear mother"
In your narrow home ofclay, .
Pray that we may also join you,
On some happy future day.

The Bragg AMI Delaney W0T.

The BruGO AMI Delaney W0T.
The fight between the Bragg and De-
laney forces in the Second Congressional
district has been waxing quite fierce for
some days past invoking the serious and
undivided attention of all the Estates
men," AnimOsities seem to be increased
and the contest embittered among the
faithful and meek followers of Jefferson,
Jackson, et al, as the time for the meet
ing of the convention draws near. One
week from to-day the gathering of the
hosts takes place at West Bend and then
the story will be told as to the chosen
vessel of the proud and arrogant democ-
racy of the Second district who is to bear
aloft the banner for Congressional honors.
Along with solid delegation from Dodge
county for him Delaney has secured 4 of
the 5 votes in Washington county max
ing the sum total of his vote IA Bragg
has 9 votes in Fond du Lac and l in
Washington, making his vote 10. Wau-
kesha is yet to be heard from with her
four votes. Should Bragg secure these
there would be deadlock. 1t is more
than likely, however, THAT Delaney will
receive portion, at least, of the Wau-
kesha delegation. The present outlook
altogether favors Delaney's chances for a
nomination. 1t reported upon reliable
authority that Bragg has declared his
purpose Of running independent if he
fails to secure the democratic nomination
and in this event the Republicans will
make no nomination but rally to his sup
port. And again rumor has it that should
Delaney find it impossible to be nominal
ed he will hand over his Dodge county
delegates to a Waukesha county man and
in nowise be instrumental in the NOM
ination of Gen. Bragg. 1t would be
we'll, we think, to take these reports with
some grains Of allowance, but rest assured
there is a considerable sport ahead for the
democracy of the Second district.
The following is clipped from Lar
annie, w. T. paper, under, date of Au-
gust 18th. One Of the ladies referred to,
Mrs. A. L. Nash, was formerly resi-
dent here, and hence the account will be
of some interest to our readers:
Mrs, A. L. Nash returned last evening
from a visit to Sherman and vicinity.
While there, in company with Mrs Nc
Intosh, ofthat place she went to take sur
vey of the Ames monument which is now
being erected in memory of the first foun-
ders of the Union Pacific r. r., Cakes
and Oliver Ames. The mortar box was
then prepared for the perilous feat and
the two ladies were seated and raised by
steam block and tackle 20 feet perpen-
dicular which was feet above the mon
ument, they were then swung across So
feet then dropped down 6 feet which
brought them at their journeys end
The scene from the summit was magnif-
cent; they were then lowered to the
ground in perfect safety. Work on the
structure still goes on. Two corner stones
and one medallion are placed into posi-
ton. The whole structure is splendid
piece of workmanship. Only one other
lady has ventured to take this trip, Mrs.
Anderson of this city.
