APpleton Post With honorable
exceptions, all Irishmen vote the
Democratic ticket without the slight
est possible reference to measures.
1t is a blind, indiscriminate devotion
which they yield to that party, The
party has often made the most start
ling sommersaults on questions re-
lating to measures, but it never lost
the Irish vote in consequence. The
Irish voter hates England, but when
the Democratic party adopts tariff
policy calculated to promote English
at the expense of American prosper
ity, the irish voter has no seruples in
supporting it.

New HAMrsHEE has repealed an
old law giving ten cents head fol
the destruction of crows. Stimulat
ed by this bounty, the crow industry
in the back counties had become one
of the moss prosperous in the state,
focks of crows being raised with
more care than ducks and chickens.
The wolf bounties in some Of the
Western States, a few years ago, had
a similar effect, and in some looali-
ties wolves were raised more gener-
silly than sheep, as they were more
profitable. Ten dollars bounty for
the scalp of wolf whelp made the
raising Of lambs for s. a head look
like small business.

| The remoal Of General Handen, the yeter-
an hero, is causing storm Of Indignation all
| around The veterans denounce it.--1adisou
Democrat
"The storm of indignation" seems
confined to the Democratic party,
and the veterans" who "denounce
it" are discovered by the following
Madison correspondence to the Mil
waukee Sentine5'
MADISON, July IA There is excitement
among the soldiers Of this vicinity, The re-
cent order consolidating the revenue districts
Turned out Gen. Henry Harnden, the coliec-
tor OF this district, As Gen. Harndcn's record
in the rebellion was extremely credilable, the
Democrats are trying 10 stir up bad blood by
raising howl over the decapitation OF old
soldiers. The Democratic organ in this city
has been very busy in expressing mock sym.
pathy for the soldiers, the object being to
ALLEVIATE support from The Republican party.
Last night the G. A. K. Post Of this city held
meeting. Mai c. J. Mayors a Democratic
politician. introduced resolution which, ac-
! cordng TO common report, was written by W.
+. Villas, condcmniug in sharp tones the pres.
ent federal administration for turning out
soldiers A Republican member Of The Post
offered an amendment binding Gen, Harnden
to % pledge 10 appoint in bis revenue district,
RS sub.otHcers, none but soldiers, This me re.
fused to do. but after considerable skirmish.
ing the amendment passed as a part Of the
Democratic resolution. The cause of The eX-
element among The soldiers is This Villas is
not member Of the post. Gen. Harnden,
though a rcsiden, Of this city for many years,
Inns never joined the post, but joined and was
initiated last night, He voted against the
Villas resolution with the Republican tail.
Old soldiers Of this district have
no special reason to be enthusiastic
for Gen. IIarnden. lie has been
collector for about ten years, having
four deputies. Those deputies he
appoints, and in all those years he
has appointed but one man who was
in the army, and he was removed
at the request of the member Of
Congress for purelyp political reasons,
and non-soldier substituted. Gen.
Ilarnden was gallant soldier, is a
competent and faithful civil officer
and worthy gentleman, but politi-
eally is no better than the average.
He falls victim at last to a vicious
policy which through many years
he has upheld and Practiced. The
and injustice of it he might
never have discovered had it not
been applied to him. Gen. Harm
den's neglect Of soldiers in the past
justified and doubtless suggested
the action of the veterans, in the
demand they made Of him, as indi-
Gated in the Sentinel dispatch.
We make no defense of the ar
rangement by which the collector Of
the Sparta district is retained. As
before stated, it seems to us that
there would be greater wisdom in
selecting a new man for the new
district. 1t would be more satisfac |
DRY and quite as well for the service.

The greater population, wealth
and prosperity of Ohio, in comparl-
son with Kentucky, are due to the
fact that the former state "favors
protection" while the latter "adyo-
Gates free trade" Ohio is dotted
all over with thriving manufacturing
towns; Kentucky is not so dotted.
Ohio has home market for its agri-
cultural products; Kentucky has
poor and insignificant home markets.
