Our Legislative Candidate.

The Republicans of this Assembly
district who met at Shell Lake on the
18th inst, opened the session with a
fashionable deadlock, but in due
course of time got down to business
and nominated Canute Anderson, of
Burnett county. The Pioneer Press
correspondent in attendance, reports
the proceedings as follows:
The Republican Assembly District
convention, comprising the counties of
Barron, Burnett, Douglas, and Bay
field, convened here at 7 o'clock last
night and drifted into a deadlock.
Chas. S. Taylor, Of Barron county,
had eight votes; Canute Anderson, of
Burnett county, had seven votes; j.
II. Knight, of bayfield, county, had
two votes, and Geo w. Perry, of
Douglas county, had one vote The
convention kept on balloting until Il
o'clock, when the Bayfield, and Doug
las county delegates suddenly made a
break and, to the great surprise, nom
mated Canute Anderson, of Burnett.
The nomination was made unanimous
amid cheer and good feeling. The
Democrats have not vet called a con-
vention, and it is not probable that
Mr.. Anderson will have any opposi-
ton. Hon. Canute Anderson is ma
tive of Norway, and has lived at
Grants Landing for nearly thirty
years, he having served his county as
county treasurer and several other po-
sitions, and was a member of the
Assembly in 1878 The district is
Republican by 800 majority.
From what our exchanges in that
part Of the district say, we infer that
Mr. Anderson is a gentleman every
way worthy the high honor conferred
upon him, and of the unanimous sup
port of the Republicans of the district
and we trust Superior will give him 8
rousing big vote. We are glad to see
by the proceedings that the conven-
toned recognized, though in a small
degree, that Superior, or Douglas
county, had some claims upon the po-
sition, and we hope that when the
next convention conyenes we may re-
ceive what we are no doubt entitled
TO, the nominee. \ good way TO Sc
cure this desired end is to give the
Congressional and Representative cam
didates big vote this fall, and by SO
doing secure larger representation
In the next convention.

The Candidates dominated

The Republican convention called
for last Saturday evening, was duly
held at the Court house, and although
the evening was a most unpleasant
one, the attendance was large, some
eighty votes being polled for some Of
the candidates for nomination. Oh
course, not being a delegate conven-
ton, a few Of the votes cast were
Democratic, yet of these the number
was few. The various aspirants were
there with their hackers and although
each man worked earnestly for his
particular friend, all passed of quietly
and without any open rebellion.
While the convention was called for
the nomination of pure and unadul-
terated Republican ticket, it was af-
forwards decided to be policy to mix
up little" and friend Dean was adj
mitted to a place on the ticket. But
not to anticipate, in the absence OF
Mr.. W. Cox, Chairman of the cen
trail committee, the convention was
called to order by Mr.. c. Ansley, a
member Of the committee. After
several nominations and ballots Mr..
c. Sunderland was finally chosen
chairman of the convention, while
Mr.. ". J. Whipple was made Secre-
tary.
After considerable wrangling as to
how to get down to business, the sub
ject matter Of the call was stated by
the call was stated by the chairman
and when the order of business was
made known, it did not take long to
nominate the following ticket:
For County Clerks. Z. Tubbs.
Circuit Court Clerk-W. II. Webb.
District Attorney-Allen Haines.
County Treasuer-Denis Dean.
County Suryeyor-A. K. Smith.
We cannot say that all of the nomi-
nees are those we would have chosen,
but as none of us can have all we
would like in this world, we humbly
bow to the will of the majority, and il
any one feels like kicking US for do
ing SO, we are at your service.

4 Confident Candidate.

Hon. W, f. Bailey, the anti-mo-
nopoly and Democratic candidate for
congress against VIM. T. Price, was
in the city today looking up his pros
poets. lie talked very boastingly,
and claimed about everything in and
out Of sight. He conceded to Price
Barron, bayfield,, Pierce, Polk and
Douglas counties, but was modest
enough to assert that his claim as the
peoples champion was enough to in
sure him the remainder OF the district.
The campaign, he asserted. resolved
itself into fight for Price and anti
Price, and he did not believe the peo-
pie were going 10 stand the dictates of
a tyraut who respected no ones feel
ings but his own. Mr. Bailey is a
very boastful candidate, and insinuat-
ed that he would have heaps of dirt
to sling when the proper time arrived.
At the hotel he lauded Price for net
accepting his challenge to meet him in
public debate, and when he declared
he dare not do it, a gentleman who
happened to be standing near, insinu-
ated that Price had never received a
challenge, and dipping q pen into the
ink and taking a piece Of paper hand
ed them back to Mr.. Bailey with the
remark:
Here, you have reiterated that
statement time and again. Now
write a direct challenge to Mr.. Price
and | will guarantee he will meet you
face to face"
He refused the proferod offer on
the pretext that the gentleman's guar
antee would probably avail nothing,
when he offered to give him So to
help him in his canvass if Mr. Price
did not accept the direct challenge.
Mr.. Bailey would not grasp the oppor-
tunity on the claim that the commit
tee would make it initiate against his
personal canvass. He left tonight for
jackson county where he is to make a
half dozen speeches.-Pioneer Press.

An Impartial Opinion OF W.. H. Price

Translated from the Scandinavian Chicago of
October q, 1882.
Mr.. Price came to Black River
Falls 81 years ago on the deck of a
steamboat, too poor to come any other
way; was Il years old, with limited
education, but full Of energy, pluck
and honesty of purpose. Was elected
to the assembly of 1851 and won for
himself an enviable reputation by
bringing into market the state lands
of which nearly 100000 acres were in
his district, at S1.25 per acre, and re-
pealing the law under which they were
held at a much higher rate, ! think at
$3.50 per acre.
No one act of any one legislature
has benefited the northwest so much
as this one, attributable solely to his
brain and his action In the session
of 1857 as a member Of the senate he
secured, against the opposition of the
most powerful combination that this
section had then known, the repeal Of
the charter Of the Black River Log
! Driving Company-a company that
had the power and legal right to des-
troy the manufacturing interests Of
Black River.
In the sessions of 1870 and 1871 as
member Of the senate, he was there
cognized champion OF the bill to char
ter The 'Dells Improvement Company
at Eau Claire" and to him more than
to any other man is due the credit Of
making this inducement for men to
manufacture their logs inside of the
state, thus atfording a home market
for the products of the farm, and de-
mand for we'll paid labor In 1864,
when the navigation of Black River
was almost totally destroyed by logs
being driven out of it, against the
opposition of Mr.. p, who was man
ufacturer, the mill men and others
met at Neillsville to form an associa-
ton for the purpose of Improvement
of Navigation of Black River" for this
purpose with every manufacturer a
corporate member, charter was OBJ
tanned with power to improve the nav
igation, with no power to own a
log or drive a log.
Mr.. Price was by unanimous vote
elected president of this corporation
and has been unanimously elect every
year since.
In the sessions of 1873, 10, 80, 81
and 50, as a member Of the legisla-
ture Mr.. Price was a recognized lead
er in all that pertained to the good of
the people, and the welfare of the
state, and by his business ability and
sterling honesty he saved the state at
least a half million Of dollars; in fact
I Justly earned and received the name
Of the "W latch Dog of the treasury"
! Mr.. Price, tho often indiscrete and
/ impulsive, unites heart so kind, a
private life so pure, and a courage so
dauntless, that the vicious and cor
rupt hate and malign him, while the
weak, the oppressed, the needy, throng
his pathway and never leave him I'M
relieved. He is and has been a Repub-
lican since 1856 and has never battled
/ the ticket, but does not endorse the
weak and wicked acts into which the
! party has been led by bad men who
have in some instances exercised a
baleful influence in the deliberation of
the party. If elected, he will be in
congress as he IS at home true to the
/ interests Of the state, kind and brave.

swEET.MINDED WOMEN.

So great is the influence OF 4 sweet.
minded woman on those around her,
that il is almost boundless. II is to her
that friends come in seasons of sorrow
and sickness for help and comfort; one
soothing touch Other kindly hand works
wonders in the fcverish child few
words let fall from her lips in the ear OF
a sorrowing sister does much TO raise the
load of grief that is bowing its victim
down to the dust in anguish. The hus-
band comes home worn out with the
pressure Of business, and feeling irrita-
bic with the world in general /; but when
he enters the cosy sitting room, and
sees the blaze Of the bright fire, and
meets his wife's smiling face, he sue
cumbs in n moment to the soothing in
fluences which acts as the balm Of Gilead
to his wounded spirits that are wearied
with the stern realities Of life. The
rough school hoy flies in a rage from
the taunts Of his companions to find
solace in his mothers smile; the little
one, full Of grief with its own large
trouble, finds a heaven Of rest on its
mothers breast and so one might 60
on with instances OF the influence that a
sweet-minded woman has in the social
life with which she is Connected
Beauty is an Insignificant power when
compared with hers.

RAISING LARGE HORSES.

There is great profit in rearing large,
powerful, enduring horses, as the de-
mand for them at extra prices among
us at present is considerably beyond the
supply. This cannot be fully met for
years, and, when done, Europe will
gladly take our surplus at equal or per-
haps higher prices for an indefinite
length Of time. The superior profit in
rearing these is, that they can be put to
light farm work at eighteen to twenty
four months of age, and the hardest Of
il at four years old. When they have
attained five or six years, they can be
sold for city and other heavy work, and
by this time they will have paid their
cost Of rearing on the farm, and the high
price at which they now sell will be a
clear gain to the farmer. This is the
calculation in Europe, and il may be
still more easily realized in America,
where grain, grass and hay are so much
cheaper and more abundant Country
Gentleman.

FEED REGULARLY.

It is we'll known to all careful feeders
that the best results follow the most sys-
temaiic and regular methods. All our
OF habit rs We are ourselves, and most
OF us know the value OF systematic at
ten,ion in the matters Of eating, Sleep
ing, resting, &c. Many farmers make
times and methods for feeding depend
upon circumstances, and sometimes upon
what many Of us would call capricious
circumstances At that. There should be
a regular hour for feeding all kinds Of
stock, and they should always get their
fool at that hour. They may have two
feeds day or three as the case may be,
but they know when the feeding time
comes and are restless and uneasy until
they are fed. Stock that is fed with
regularity and care never look for nor
expects food at irregular or unusual
hours. In the case OF a properly man
aged dairy herd, for instance, the cows
are quiet and comfortable, and arc not
excited and expectant of food every time
one goes into the barn. They know
when to expect their food and do not
look for il at other times. In herds
where the feeding is not systematic the
cows expect something ever time one
goes into the barn. Il is the same way
with chickens or pigs; if they are fed
with method and system they know when
to expect food, and are not continually
hanging around waiting for something
to be given them. The same thing APP
plies to watering as to feeding--it should
be done regularly. System in feeding
and caring for animals makes them more
thrifty and profitable.

he NEVER PAID A DEBT.

1t used to be said Of Pilgrim, who
was aresident Of Clinton county, Mich,
for thirty years, that he never paid adebt
in his life, and further that no one ever
found way to make him. The nearest
he ever came to such climax was when
a neighbor found him mired in swamp
in the woods, two miles from any house.
He was slowly going down when acci-
dcntally discovered, and the situation
offered the neighbor just the chance he
had long wanted. Taking seat on a
log near by, he said:
"Pilgrim, you owe me $40"
"lt's outlawed," was the reply.
"I can't help that. II was n just debt,
and you've got to pay it or I'll leave
you TO sink out Of sight"
81 never pay outlawed debts" was
the grim answer.
"Then down you CO." said The cred
itor As he started away.
OF course he did not mean to leave
old Pilgrim to die, but he thought he'd
give him scare. He therefore hid in
the bushes where he could see him, and
during the two hours he was there the
debtor went down until only head and
shoulders were above the swamp. 1t
wanted only an hour TO sundown, when
the creditor came forward and said:
"Pilgrim you are in a bad fix"
"Yes, rather bad."
"Unless you have help you'll be out
OF sight in two hours"
"Looks that way to me, too"
Snow, then, will you pay that debt ?"
"It's outlawed.
al can't help that, you owe me $40.
Will you pay il if help you out p
Pilgrim seemed to fully realize his Sit
uation, but after moments reflection
he called out:
"I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll wait
till 60 down to my chin, and then if
no one else happens along, or the boys
don't come this way after the COWS, I'll
give you my note for $40, payable in a
year. How's that ?"
"Ill let you go down - roared the
creditor rs he moved away.
"Hold on hold on !" called Pilgrim.
al forgot to say that the note must be
drawn without interest, and you must
agree not TO sue on it.
He was actually down to his chin
when the neighbor returned with help,
but he was not in a debt paying mood.
On the contrary, when he found that
his boots had been left in the mire be-
hind him he growled out :
al don't say as shall sue any Of you
for the value Of them boots, but ! won't
agree not to bring in the claim if we
ever make hoss trade"
