THE Evening Wisconsin seems to de-
light in throwing out insinuations of a
base nature regarding the editor of The
Pilot. If The Pilot was seemingly incon-
sistent few years ago, the explanation
is simple. It's editor was informed from
sources which he considered perfectly
reliable of certain acts on the part of
Gen. Bragg, which he considered culp-
able and fit subjects for criticism. When
his informants were asked to substanti-
ate their assertions they found themselves
unable to do so. What should the edi-
tor of The Pilot have done under the
circumstances Possibly he might have
initiated the example of the arch libeler
of The Evening Wisconsin and kept on
defaming MIR. Bragg. Possibly he might
have pursued the more prevaricating and
the more inglorious course of letting his
former attitude toward Bragg apparently
stand, and in order 10 aid Bragg's cleo
ton declare for him as opposed to bis
competitor. Had Mr.. Maggie pursued
either of these methods, his latter course
would apparently be consistent with his
former. But he did not see fit to follow
the one or the other for the reason, that
though it might have exalted his paper,
it would have degraded the man. Mr..
Nagle had the straightforwardnes and
manliness to retrace the steps he had
taken in wrong direction and whatever
little consolation his political and person
al opponents can take from his conduct
they are welcome to it. The editor in
his character of public educator should
govern himself by the same code of NOR
afity he would see fit to pursue in his
private intercourse with mankind. If @
private individual, with the best motives
in view, should declaim against fellow
mortal and afterward find himself to be
in error, his only acceptable way Of
Fighting the wrong done would be TO re.
tract his statements. When an editor
does this howl of inconsistency, weak
mindedness and treachery is raised and
borne on the wings of time, appearing
and disappearing by irregular alterna-
tions until it exhausts itself in its OWE
force. We make the above remarks
with much reluctance for the reason thai
we believe if Mr. Maggie was home al
present he would treat the article, and
those who inlorse its sentiments, with
the contempt tina. both it and they de-
serve.

COMMISSIONERS REVERSED.

Judge ellison has written an elaborate
and exhaustive opinion on the certiorari
from the finding of the commissioners
appointed to review the equalization of
the county board. He has reversed the
action of the commission so far as the
towns of Manitowoc and Manitowoc
Rapids are concerned, those being the
only towns which took an appeal.
Mr.. Nash was the attorney for the
towns and prepared very comprehen-
sive brief on the subject, presenting his
side in the very strongest light. His
success relieves Manitowoc Rapids of
about ST 200 and the town of Mauitowoc
of about 5000 taxes. The principal
ground of reversal is the failure of the
commission to do their whole duty, that
is, to equalize the value of personal prop
erty as well as of real, estate. 1t is evil
dent that the legislature intended that
only real estate should receive attention,
but so framed the law as to make the
equalization of personal property manda-
tory. 1t certainly is but proper that the
same rule should apply to personal prop
erty that does to real estate. If injustice
is done anywhere it is in the value set
upon personal property.
The county board will hardly appeal
from the decision of Judge ellison in this
matter. 1t is not hasty opinion but is
marked by all the research and care
which always characterize the judges
work. He would without much question
be sustained by the supreme court.

THREE young men, with capital of
$4,000, were in the city last week for
the purpose of looking the field over with
a view to establishing chair factory at
this point. A number of prominent
citizens held meeting at the council
rooms on Monday and discussed the adj
visibility of voting bonus Of SIS, 200 to
the projectors of the enterprise, that be-
ing made condition of their investing
their capital at this point. The idea of
raising the amount by taxation was aban-
doned as impracticable,. and committees
were appointed to wait upon our business
men and solicit subscriptions. On Tues
day the committees went to work and
were quite successful, number of the
business men subscribing quite literally.
There seems to be but one opinion on
the advisability of thus giving gratnity
of S., 200 to bring $4,000 of capital to
the city, by the men who represent the
wealth of the city,-and that is of I'M
qualified approval. The young men are
said to be thoroughly reliable and fully
competent to manage the business in
which they propose to engage. 1t seems
to be large sum offered as bonus to
attract small amount of capital, but
other points have held out like induce
ments and have had no cause to regret
it. If this factory should prove a success
and be enlarged there can be no doubt of
the wisdom Of taking means to secure its
establishment here. 1t may serve as a
nucleus for other factories, when the adj
| yantages offered by the place will be the
| only inducements offered to capital.

We once owned Hallam's Middle Ages
but some friend borrowed it; We have
forgotten whom and he evidently has
failed to remember the former owner.
We suspect Kirwan and Walker, two
notorious book thieves, but neither will
allow us to look over his library, as each
claims it has q tendency to reduce the
number of his books. If the person
who borrowed Hallam will return it no
questions will be asked.

One day last week a man came into
one of the drug stores in this city and said
that he was the father of fourteen chill
dren; that the youngest one was an infant
and very weak and sickly and he expect
Ell it would die. He thought, however,
that it was possible it might get along,
and in order to prevent such misfor-
tune, he wanted to get some drug that
would speedily send it to the kingdom
come. We refrain from giving the name
of the drug store where the poison was
sought for. We think, however, that
instead of refusing to sell any such drug
for any such purpose, the druggist should
have remanded the inhuman, unnatural
and would be infanticide to justice and
let him suffer the extreme penalty of the
law. The man who would think for a
moment of committing such an act must
be monster unfit to mingle III ally So
ciety, savage or civilized. A man so de-
void of every natural instinct, is better
dead than alive. The wild animal that
does not nurture and protect its young is
unknown, but this apparently tame ami
NAL would kill his because it happens to
be little troublesome. Such persons
deserve no shelter, and whenever they
are found out it is a duty every good
citizen owes to the community to place
it in possession of the facts which he
may become acquainted with even if they
are acquired in business or profession
al manner.

SEVERAL religious denominations re-
gard Sunday night dances as an abomi-
nation and we are strongly inclined to
think they are right. While there is
nothing wrong about dancing, Sunday
night dances Is rule, are not conducive
to the morals of community. Sunday
is day of rest and young people desire
to make the most of it. Girls and boys
who are hard at work all the week want
some recreation, and if they can find no
better they go to dance house which is
probably the resort Of rowdyish men and
abandoned women, instead of elevating
this class the youthful and innocent are
dragged down and probably seduced
from the path of virtue and innocence,
to that of vice and cv;me. If reports be
true, such resort is 70 be found on the
