JUNEAU.

The political pot is more than boilding
here, not only as regards congressional
matters, but also in regard to the nomi-
nation of candidates for county officers.
Just now all eyes are turned towards
West Bend where the Democratic Con-
Vention meets to-day. The best inform
ed parties, friends of either candidates,
admit that the vote will be tie on the
start, IA for Bragg and IA for Delaney,
and will remain so for several ballots;
some sort of break will then take place,
and the probability is that an entirely
new man will be selected Who he will
be is mere guess work, but the name Of
A. Scott Sloan is the one most prominent
ly spoken Of The fact is that, under
existing circumstances, the democrats
will not dare to nominate either Bragg
or Delaney; the fight between the two
has been so bitter, that the nomination
of either will create a perfect revolution
in the Democratic ranks, and result in
the election of a Republican member
from this district

MYSTERIOUS affair.

Last Saturday forenoon a man named
William Dickhoth, former resident of
Rome, this county, was discovered on the
Northwestern Railway track near the
residence of Walter Pease in the Third
ward, with bullet hole in his body Just
below the region Of the heart. When
found the man was very weak and ap-
parently in dying condition. He was
removed to Mr.. Pease's residence and
from him was elected the following &C
count of the affair: He had been stop
ping at the Commercial Hotel for few
DAYS previous and that morning had start
ed from the house to take a train at the
Junction. The train being late he con.
Guided to fill up the time by taking q
walk. He had proceeded only short
distance when he was assaulted by two
men, and in endeavoring to use his revol-
yer upon them, one Of the men snatched
the weapon away from him and shot
him. Dickhoth further stated that he
was relieved of $3.50. in money. During
the afternoon the wounded man was con-
viewed to the American House where be
received medical aid from DIR. Cody
| Dickhoth's uncle from Jefferson, arrived

Democratic County Ticket.

The democratic county Convention
held last Saturday at Jefferson, nominal
ed the following county ticket: Senator,
W. w. Reed, Jefferson; Sheriff. NJ Gun
ningham, Watertown; Treasurer, Fred
Siedow, town of Watertown; Register, A.
Winslow, Fort Atkinson; District attor-
ney, r. B. Kirkland, Jefferson; County
Clerk, F. Hing, Jefferson; Surveyor, K.
P. Clark, Waterloo; Coroner, Nelson
Fryer, Cold Spring. The Convention
distinguished itself from the most of
its predecessors in being quiet and
harmonious gathering, sort of gen uine
political love-feast, a happy outcome of the
"cut and dried'' process that had obtain
ed among the candidates. The ticket
has passive rather than positive strength,
and the democracy of Jefferson Cou nty
have certainly often given its followers
an opportunity of voting for a stronger
ticket than that presented last Saturday
to the voters. AS usual Jefferson gets
the lions share of the offices, receiving
three out of the six principal ones nomi-
mated, those of senator, district attorney
and county clerk. The City of Water
town with her 5000 population within
the limits of Jefferson county, more than
twice larger than Jefferson, and with
three times the taxable property, must be
content with only one Office. For any,
thing further than this nobody need ap-
ply" from Watertown. Her votes are all
that is asked. Her interests never seem to
be worthy OF being taken into consider
alton.

Constitutional amendments.

1t does not appear to be generally un-
derstood that at the coming election in
this state several amendments to the con-
stitution will be submitted to vote of
the people for ratification or rejection.
The election is November 7. One is an
amendment to the suffrage article,
and make two changes. Under the ex-
listing constitution, person of lawful age
and having the other qualifications is
made voter where he actually resides,
and hence all registry laws have proved
invalid. 1t is now proposed that per-
son must reside Gin the election district
where he offers to vote, such time as may
be provided by the Legislature, net ex-
ceeding thirty days" A supplementary
proposition is that the legislation may
proYide for the registratio of voters in
incorporated cities.
Another proposed amendment extends
the term of the present state officers one
year, and make the next election for
state offices occur in 1884, and on even
years thereafter, instead of in 1883 and
in the odd years. If this amendment
shall be adopted congressional, county
and state elections for members of the
legislature will all occur at the same time,
instead Of coming on different years, and
there will be no ''of year.
All judicial officers will be elected at a
separate election as at present.
This will be a pretty good thing for
the state officers who are now in, unless
it shall result in a demand for change
all around in 1884, under the plea that
the Gins have had as good as two terms,
in holding three years, without the ex-
pense and wear and tear of reelection.
These two very important amendments
are supplemented by one of minor impor-
lance relating to the election Of county Of
ficers, and the principal change consists
Ia the addition of the following words to
the section: 'tAll vacancies shall be
filled by appointment, and the person ap-
pointed to fill a..vacancy shall hold only
for the unexpired portion of the term to
which he shall be appointed and until
his successor shall be elected and quail
fed

soon after the transaction occurred and
attended to his wants. The uncle is full
ly convinced that his nephew's story is
correct and says he knows it to be fact
that Dickhoth had some $500 in his pos
session. The affair struck many as be-
ing the work of crank or would-be SUI
icide and there are certainly some mat
tiers that go to show that this theory is
not improbable. At the hotel it was no.
ticed he acted queerly in several respects.
For instance, when he returned to the ho-
tel even after an absence of only few
hours he would register his name and
practiced other singular freaks of q
like character. But if the man was as
saulted as he claims, it was terrible
outrage and nothing should be left I'M
done to bring the criminals to Justice.
Two tramps were arrested on suspicion
a short time after the affair became known
but as nothing could be proved against
them they were discharged. The wounded
man WAS taken to Jefferson by team Sun
day afternoon. There is every prospect
that he will recover from his wounds

The recent Temple of Honor Con-
vention held at Jefferson, the 30th ult.,
was one of that class of gatherings which
may Justly be styled harmonious and good.
Templars were in attendance from Madi-
son, Marshall, Waterloo, Lake Mills,
Fort Atkinson and this city, represent
ing as a whole, the Temples belonging to
the 9th district. The programme of e1-
ercises consisted of discussions on various
topics of interest to the order, review of
past work, consideration of ways and
means for future work and general rea-
soning upon subjects deemed consistent
and in harmony with the question of
temperance reform. To this end the
convention in question proved decided
success, and merits the regards of all
those who are interested in the temper
ance movement. In accordance with
the customs observed at previous gather
ings of this nature. the evening was de-
voted to the interest of the public and an
open meeting was held at the First Bap-
fist Church, at which members of the or
der, in response to the chairman's call,
delivered short speeches. Singing was
also an item worthy of notice. Jefferson
Temple provided splendid supper for
visiting brethren at the Sawyer House.
The delegates present from this city were
| G. Pafenbach, L. Dunnigan, A. K. M
Pickert, A. J. Kuhn and @. G. Eaton.
Upon vote of the convention it was de-
cided to hold the next meeting in this
city, in November.

BrG0g-DeLnney ImbrogIiO.


Senator A. K. Delaney, of Mayville,
whose name is sometimes heard mention
ed in connection with the democratic
nomination for Congressman of the Sec
ond district, was here last Friday on his
way to Waukesha county to look after
the caucuses Whereabouts. While here
many took the opportunity Of sounding
him on his chances at West Bend to-day
and to all of those he was emphatic in
his declaration that victory would rest on
his banners. He talked "thusly' before
the Waukesha caucuses and convention
for the election of delegates were held but
we think the result in that part of his do
minion must lead him now to qualify his
remarks somewhat regarding the certain
ty of his nomination inasmuch as it seems
certain that the doughty little General
has secured the four Waukesha votes. A
bitter fight is before the West Bend con-
vention to-day. Delaney and Bragg
each have IA delegates making a dead
lock. Bragg appears to feel assured that
after the first ballot he will secure one Of
the Delaney men from Washington while
with equal assurance Delaney claims
two of the delegates from Waukesha. So
you ''pays your money and takes your
choice as to which of the two aspirants
stands the best chance of a nomination.
For several reasons in our opinion Bragg
will not be nominated. The politicians
will hold, we think, that Fond du Lac
and Waukesha should not have the
nomination over Dodge and Washington.
Foud du Lac waivers from year to year
in her political fellowship one year be-
ing republican and the other democratic.
Waukesha has but just come into the dis
trict and it would be positive assurance
for her to dictate the nomination. Pitted
against these two are the counties of
Dodge and Washington, the great demo-
cratic.strongholds of the state, and it would
seem natural that their choice would
have the most weight in.democratic coun-
ellis. Delaney may not be nominated
but it is reasonable to suppose that Dodge
and Washington viii dictate the choice
and in this event General Bragg will not
be the nominee.

visible will be in the year of 2004. After
the transit is over the members of the ex-
petition will make their observation
which will occupy some months. Venus
is now growing more brilliant every even
ing. Through the autumn she will con-
tinue to grow more and more brilliant,
until she appears as thin crescent, sill
yer bow. Then she will disappear as a
star, to reappear on December Z. as a
black dot on the sun. The transit will be
observed in Central and Western Europe,
North and South America, and Australia,
and thousands of telescopes will be turn
ed upon the sun from public and private
