Though special legislation has favored
the few and oppressed the many, by
grants and donations of natures gifts,
by favoritism and class legislation, has
betrayed the peoples trust, established
the right of caste, the sin Of usury, the
curse of monopoly, the chains of slavery,
and clothed their crimes with legal au-
thOrity, therefore it is to the end that all
shall have equal rights, equal privileges
equal opportunities and equal RESPONSE
bilities under the law that we should la
Dor. Looking beyond the narrow limits
of our own local, district, or even state
assemblies, we can see in prospect what
may be attained if each local assembly
works for the common good as well as
individual interests or personal prosper
lty. And whenever and wherever we
find mistakes have been made or wrongs
committed by depriyng the most hum
bic. of our brothers or sisters of the rights

Convict Labor Bill.

Peter Stryker, the daddy" Of the bill
abolishing convict labor, is here, looking
after the welfare of his offspring He
approves the reformatory principles of
the amendments introduced by Senator
Perkins, but thinks the senate has not
acted in the best Of faith in the matter,
and that the entirely new matter ought
to have been introduced in a separate
bill, However, t being a question Of
accepting the amendments or Of having
the entire bill. thrown out, Mr.. Strvker
is advising the friends Of the original
bill in the house 20 concUrin the amend
ments; thcr they can be modified next
session Should the refusal of the house
to concur cause the defeat Of the measure
Peter Sryker NAV be set down as Il
republican candidate for the next Iegis-
lature on this issue. The contractors are
sending out petitions to the farmers to
sign to forward to the legislature, repre-
senting that the running of the peni-
tentiary by the state can only be at a
great financial loss. These contractors
ought to have a monument for their pa,
triotism.
In view Of the criticisms passed upon
Senator Perkins, Justice to that gentle
man demands the statement that he in
troduced the amendments in good faith,
and is earnestly desirous that the bill
should be made law-Cincinnati Com

First Mass.


On Saturday morning, July 81, Rev.
John Darcy, of this city, was ordained
Priest by Archbishop Feehan, in the
Cathedral of the Holy Name, Chicago
He arrived home Saturday evening, on
the 8: so train. Shortly after his arri
val, he was most pleasantly surprised
by serenade from our Mineral Point
band, which played several pieces in a
manner that reflected great credit up
on the members. They were addressed
in few well-chosen words of thanks
by Father Darcy and invited to re-
freshments.
On Sunday morning. Father Darcy
said his First Mass, in st. Paups
church. Although the morning was
threatening and extremely warm, long
before the hour appointed every seat
in the church was filled, and by the
time services began, the aiSles were
crowded and many could not gain en-
trance. At 10:4 a. M, the procession
of clergymen entered the church, and
in short time dressed in their robes
they issued from the sacristy, and
solemn High Mass was commenced ::
Father Darcy celebrant; Rev. Vein
art of Dodgeville, deacon; Rev. Luby,
of Ridgeway, sub-deacon; Rev. Huber,
of this city, and Rev. O'Brien, of Mil
waukee, master of ceremonies, assisted
by William Mccormack of st. Mary's
Seminary, Baltimore. The choir rem
dered a fine mass, interspersed with
beautiful hymns. The altar was taste
fully decorated with natural and arti-
fetal flowers, showing plainly that
those who had charge of the work
were not only capable but deeply in
tereSted. After the last wine and
water, Father O'keefe assembled the
pulpit and delivered an effective and
eloquent sermon, taking for his text
those words of holy scripture: "As the
Father sent me SO 1 also send you," "all
power that l have, | give unto you
"geing therefore, teach all nations
whatsoever have commanded you, and
behold | am with you unto the con-
summation of the world" He dwelt
for some time on the divine mission
and authority of the priesthood, which
he placed in most forciDle man
manner. He spoke of the honor and
grandeur of the true priest; also of his
sufferings and priyations. He drew
very striking comparison between
America and the Catholic church. As
America welcomes all, rich and poor,
the oppressed of other nations, to a
home and citizenship. SO the Catholic
church welcomes all without dis
inction TO her fold. He strikingly
showed the close bond of union te-
tween the Catholic people and their
priests and the cause thereof.
At the close of the sermon, High
Mass was fin ished, and the immense
congregation departed, deeply i'm
pressed by the service. Father Darcy
went through the trying ordeal i'll a
manner proving his ability and the
traing he had received. Father Darcy
departs on Friday to enter upon his
active duties at the Cathedral of the
Holy Name, Chicago.

A little incident happend at APP
pleton recently that caused consid-
cradle mirth. An old farmer went
into town on the Fourth and tried
to get in the First National Bank.
Some fellow seeing him try the door
told him the bank was busted. " By
jimmy. over 81 900 gone to h-ll !"
With this exclama ton he started for
home and spread the news. The
standing of the bank being ques-
toned all the farmers who had de-
posts came fiocking in, and nearly
$4,000 was drawn out. The stand
ing of the bank is among the best
in the state, being able to pay five
dollars for every dollar of outstand-
ing certificates. The joke is on the
farmers, q great many of whom
would have had interest for three
months due them in a few days.
The bank is about five hundred dol
lars ahead on the affair.
One of our enterprisng business
men early this spring planted some
tomato seed, and with tender care
cherished the plants, when at home
and his wife was devoted to them
in his absence. In due time the
seedlings were IrauSplaLIeu, ana
when at home from his various
business trips our friend flourished
the hoe in commendable style, in
hts absence his wife used the hoe
to the best of her ability and the
result was the plants grew thriftily
and were the pride of her heart,
although neither bud nor blossom
nor promise appeared. On Sunday
last they invited some friends to 60
into the garden and see the thrifty
plants. The friend being some
thing of a botanist greeted them
with a hearty laugh, and our anna
teur gardener learned he had spent
his his time and strength in raising
weeds. -Brodhead Independent.
