played on Rerdell, one of the defend

ment that wouldn't be willing to lay
down few million dollars in expenses
to get joke on a man. Rerdell plead
ed guilty, acknowledged his guilt.
Swore to his guilt, and did all he could
to prove that the balance Of the defend
ants were equally as guilty as he
claimed be. But the jury went through
the evidence ana found the defendants,

he will have to withdraw his plea. or
perhaps, he will be arrested for per-
jury i'll swearing that he was guilty
when he was not. Rerdell must feel
like taking stout club and going out
behind Il barn somewhere and lnauline
himself, and he should do SO. If he
gets tired Of pounding himself he can
rest awhile and then use the club on
the government lawyers. 1t is alW Nays
best for man to be certain that he
will be convicted and then go ahead
with his plea of guilty, but it must be
terrible embarrassing for man to
swear that he is guilty and then have Il

Peck's Sun: Now that Decoration
Day is passed for this year. The Sun
would like to say few words about
something that may not have occurred
to certain persons. In many places in
the state Decoration Day has been
made the opportunity for some
persons. to give dance 1t is
possible there is 10 law against
dancing on the 3oth of May, any more
how-wow and call it a decoration Day
Dance" is an insult to every soldiers
widow. or child of any soldier who
may be in his grave. The men who
get up these dances are not
soldiers. and soldiers do not at
tend them, but they are got up by
sharpers who would advertise dance
on the anniversary of the death of
their own child, if they could make
ten dollars. Decoration Day is day
devoted to keeping green the memory
of the dead, and you cannot do that
respectfully by dancing the monoie
musk, or squeezing biscuit-shooter
around the corset in Il go-as-you- please
waltz. 1t is not compliment to those
who fell in battle, to have fiddle
strike up cotillion, and have country
smart Alexis drag crushed-strawber-
ry-attired, empty-headed girls across a
ball room floor, or squeeze perspiring
hands in the grand-right-and-left. If
those who are dancing on Decoration
Day had mind enough to think of the
thousands of mourners all over the
land, and had mind enough to compre-
bend that Iit was grand funeral day,
instead of a beer picnic, they would
go and soak their heads. A person

DODGEVILLE.

Burr Robbins sell drew a large pat
r0nage at this place. but the people
generally can not speak so favorably
as did the Chronicle of last week. We
are glad, however, that the editor was
not personally convinced that they
were other than gentlemen from "the
advance agent to the driver of the last
team to leave town." A certain man
in the village will think the manager a
gentleman" when he pays the remain
der of that little bill he owes him; and
one of our~hotel clerks will think them
all gentlemen" when they forget to
try to steal four meals on three tickets.
A prominent physician will be more
favorably impressed when the ticket
agent for the concert, hands him back
the change he forgot CD to return.
One of our bankers and prominent
lumber dealer were witnesses to this
fact. Robbins circus has had the rep
utation of having a ''hard crowd"
along with it. and their last visit has
fully established the fact. We sincere
ly hope that the manager will discard
those detriments to his reputation and
have MEN along with him the next
time he comes.

The backbone of extreme high prices
is evidently broken, but the prospects
are favorable for fair and firm figures
for all products Of the soil. Although
the yield promises to be abundant, and
in consequence prices have taken quite
a tumble, the increasing demand for
everything we raise, will be fully
equal to the supply. and will prevent
prices from going much lower than
they have now reached. There is no
such thing as overproduction, and a
bountiful harvest means plenty, at
reasonable prices, to the millions of
consumers throughout the land.

ireland Ahead Among the Ma
tiOnS.

People who manifest their own ig-
norance by applying the epithet "igno-
rant" to the people of Ireland will be
amazed to learn that in the matter of
education Ireland is the foremost ma
ton in the world. This fact was con-
firmed recently in a circular issued by
the United States Bureau of Education.
showing the comparative statistics of
elementary, secondary, and superior
education in sixty principal countries.
wherein we find Ireland heading the
list, with an average of twenty per
cent of her population of 5,159,s29 at
tending school, The United States
comes second with a percentage of
nineteen and three-fifthS of a popula-
ton of 50,155.7a3. The next is Germany
with fifteen and and nine-tenths of a
population of 45,14S,172. England and
Wales are below even Switzerland.
Russia sends but one and Lalf per
cent. of her population of 7S,500,000 to
school. giving an average attendance
of pupils little greater than Ireland.

Favorable crop reports are received
from all over the country. Wheat and
oats are reported in excellent condi-
ton and the prospects good for an
abundant yield. Corn throughout this
county is still backward but with warm
weather during the next two months
fair crop may be expected. The hay
crop will be immense, and from pres
ent indications feed of all kinds for
stock will sell at much lower prices
during the coming season than during
the past.

st. Paul Pioneer Press: The general

st. Paul Pioneer Press: The general
crop outlook has changed for the bet
ter, if at all, since last week. The warm
moist weather has stimulated rapid
growth Of the wheat plant. Corn is
still backward, but there is yet time
enough for that crop. People will
learn, after Il few years more, not to
worry about corn until midsummer.
With Il favorable season for growth in
July and August, and Il reasonably late
arrival of killing frost, corn can safely
defy the influences of cold, damp
spring The only danger is Il reduction
of acreage through the failure of dis
couraged farmers To replant early corn
which has rotted in the ground. The
crop reports along the line of the Man
itoba road, is almost universally favor
able There has been an increase in
acreage ut three-fourths of the stations
upon the line, ranging from 10 to 100
per cent. The average increase is APP
parently in the neighborhood of 80 per
cent. In the absence Of statistics of
acreage at these points last year, it is
impossible to estimate the aggregate
increase in acres, or the probable addi-
ton To the wheat product OF lne sec
ton concerned; but the general fact of
the increase is sufficiently striking, and
points to an enormous addition to the
wheat product of northern Minnesota
and Dakota this year. Another inter
esting fact brought out in these tables,
not before clearly shown, is that this
season is notably earlier than that OF
1882. Inquiries were addressed to the
agents of the road regarding the time
of sowing rs compared with last year.
From the answers to these, it appears
that at more than half the stations
wheat was sown earlier than last year,
and ut two-thirGs of them us early
The cold, wet, backward spring seems
to be a fiction SO far as the Red river
valley is concerned. Nearly all the To-
cahtieS are satisfied with the amount
of rainfall. and four-tifths of the whole
number report crop prospects better
than last year at this time. The iaveS-
tigation has evidently been made with
great care, and its results are in the
main very cheering.
