Hayes and Holton.

Certainly the greatest stain that rests upon
the political history of the United States is
that placed there by the Republican party in
1876, when it cheated the people out of their
choice for President and gave to Hayes the
office to which Tilden had been elected. Just
such similar fraud was perpetrated upon the
people of Howard county by the Republican
party when it gave to Hart B. Holton the
Office to which DR.. Littleton Maclin had been
elected. Holton, like Hayes, took the office
to which he knew he had no title and enjoyed
its honors and its revenues without scruple
and without blush Let the people of our
county remember this fact when they go to
deposit their ballots on the 9Th of November.

bisaiIon

A Chicago dispatch of the 18th
inst, says: Mr. Robert e. O'Brien,
appointed in the capacity Of civil ongi-
neer, to inspect the New York, West
Shore & Buffalo railway, has lately
had a conference with the officers Of
the Wisconsin Central regarding the
extension Of the Northern Pacific to
Ashland. As the syndicate which
provided the means for the completion
Of the West Shore road is principally
composed of Northern Pacific, this
move suggests that it is the intention
to connect the West Shore with the
Northern Pacific During the sum
mer months connections can be made
by steamer between Ashland or Supe-
rior and Buffalo. During the winter
the Wisconsin Central will undoubt-
eddy be a link in these connections,
and it IS quite probable that the Mil
waukee d st. Paul will also come into
the combination. The indications are
that the Grand Trunk will furnish the
remaining line between Chicago and
Buffalo. 1t will be necessity for the
Northern Pacific to form It combina-
ton of this kind to meet the compe-
tition of the Canadian Pacific, which
has lately struck hands with Wander
bilt.

Jury-Triai Reform,

A joint resolution was introduced in
the state senate yesterday in favor of
a constitutional amendment that shall
make valid the verdict of nine of any
jury of twelve men. A like measure
has lately passed one house of the
New Jersey Legislature. The expert
ment proposed is one which it NAV be
wise to make. In the matter of our
present jury system it is reasonably
safe to assume that any change must
be change for the better. The plan
to empower three-fourths of any Jury
to give verdict, would for one thing,
defeat corruption. \ single Juror
among twelve may often be "bought"
if properly handled. To buy three
men of any given twelve, however,
would prove-so difficult as to be yirtu-
ally impossible. The plan suggested,
too, would make an end of that exas-
perating and expensive thing known
in slang as chung jury" The one
stubborn or malicious juror with whom
SO often the other eleven refuse to
agree, would henceforth be unable to
defeat justice and pile up the public
expense Of frequent re-trials. An
eastern exchange commenting upon
the merit and reasonableness of the
New Jersey bill says:
The policy, and in fact, the destiny
of the republic, with the interests and
happiness Of all its people, are deter
mined by the voice Of two-thirds may
pass bills in legislative bodies in sum
mary fashion.
Why then, may not Il majority Of
three-fourths, cquitably and safely de
eide a lawsuit? May not Wisconsin
wisely take this first step toward in
augurating sorely-nccdod jury-triaI

Judge Perry's Successor.

1t matters not how prominent a
niche we may have filled, or how nee
essary to given line of business, or
to community, when we finally lie
down to rest and sleep the sleep that
knows no waking, scarcely has the
last clod fallen upon encofincd re-
mains, before our place is filled by
some one else and in a common way
we are forgotten. There is no excep-
ton TO this rule; the worlds machinery
must not be permitted to stop because
some part has slipped cog here or a
little bolt has dropped out there, but
the defects must be remedied at once
and the great machine kept in motion
though some section of it may have
received a shock or jar.
The death of Judge Geo. W. Perry
marks such an epoch in our own his
tory. While we all mourn the loss of
this esteemed friend and public official,
it Is also necessary that in an official
sense we must fill as near as may be
the chair he has left vacant. Mr..
Perry was elected in 1881 to the office
OF Judge OF Probate, for Douglas
| county, and Il successor will have to be
appointed by the Governor to fill the
vacancy for the unexpired term, or he
can so order that Il successor NAV be
elected ut our election in April. We
look upon the office of Probate Judge
as one ofthe most important offices in
the gift of a county. To him the
/ widow and the orphan look for an
honest and judicious settlement of
their affairs. Many intricate and per-
picking questions are left to him to
decide, and he should be a man of
clear conceptions, sound judgment,
versed in the law, and of unimpeacha-
bic integrity. Such man was Judge
Perry, and it is meet that his successor
should be no less.
We have heard several prominent
men of the town mention the name
Of Champ Green, Esl., rising young
lawyer Of the city, as a very suitable
and in every way worthy gentleman
for the office now vacant. We have
not consulted Mr.. Green on the sub
/ ject, but we doubt not he would accept
the place if rendered him, while he
would not seek it himself and we take
/ it upon ourself to present his name to
/ Governor Rusk for his consideration
and we are quite sure such an appoint
ment would meet with universal APP
I prevail, and in making the nomination
we do not detract from the merits Of
/ other gentlemen Of the county who are
competent and worthy to fill the place,
! but we can now name no other who
would give more general satisfaction,
hence our recommendation for execu-
! tive favor
p. S.-Since the above was put in
type petition has been started for
/ signatures, asking for Mr.. Green's APP
Pointment, which is being generally
signed by our business men.

Another railroad rumor which
has found its way into print, and
which is quite probably correct, is as
follows: The Wisconsin Central has
let the contract for the construction of
the new line between Ashland and
Superior. The work is to be COM
pleted as soon as possible the present
year. The Northern Pacific company
expect to have their road built to that
point by August 1, and it is probable
the Centrals line viii also be in SER
vice by that time, when the route will
be formally opened. 1t is rumored
that the Wisconsin Central has another
important extension in view, which
viii open up a part Of the state
as yet undeveloped, the particulars Of
which have not vet been made public.
