AnOId F ashioned Governor.
from the Indianapolis Journal.J

When John S. Barry was governor of
the state of Michigan there was about
an acre of ground around the capitol
upon which the grass had been
allowed to go to seed every year. Gov.
Barry took great pains to have the grass
cut at the proper time, and when pro-
perly cured he sold the hay and put the
money into the state treasury. There
was only half dollar in the state treas
ury when Barry took the chair, and i
was q bogus coin.

1t is startling fact, that quinnc, arsenic,

Of most of the Fever and Ague Prcpara-
tions," Specifics" "Syrups," and "Ton-

from these mineral poisons, although they

not cure, but leave the maaral and their

quinism, dizziness, ringing in the ears, head

Kenosha city people seem to have
lost all ambition for Office; the city
election is drawing near, and all other
cities around us are sounding the note
of preparation for the April election
But here, thus far, there has been no
noticeable button-holing. no extra
hand-shaking. no unusual suavity of
manners, no increased treating. The
saloons would doubtless like to see
politics a little more lively. 1t must
be there are those who would be will
ing to take the office of Mayor, Clerk,
Treasurer, Marshal, Justice Of the
Peace, etc. AS for the Office of city
alderman, in most cities that is deemed
a position of official dignity, but with
us the incumbent of that Office does
not appear to enjoy its honors.
But really the selection of candidates
for our city offices is no trifing mat
ter; there are great interests at stake.
and men of sound discretion and judg-
ment are required to guide us safely in
the future. Our schools have hereto
fore been fortunate in having boards
Of education who have provided liber-
ally for their maintenance; let this
sound policy continue to prevail.

CONGRESS-.

Both houses of Congress adjourned
on Sunday noon, the 4th inst. The
business accomplished during the last
few days of the session was more than
had been expected a week before.
During the Attn Congress just closed,
t0,670 bills and joint resolutions have
been introduced, including both houses.
Out of this great mass of bills and re-
solutions. only 1853 were finally passed,
leaving 1O.507 bills and resolutions I'M
disposed Of. This immense mass Of
unfinished legislation, upon which pro-
badly much of it, large amount of
work has been bestowed, is now laid
aside as labor lost. Notwithstanding
the beWildering confusion that at times
prevailed during the last weeks of the
session, it does not appear that as
much as usual objectional legislation
was gotten through as in some past
sessions. The two measures Of great
est national interest-the reduction of
the tariff and internal revenue taxes
were disposed of, not satisfactory to
all of either party but the bills, as fin
ally agreed upon, were the best that
could be secured. The Republican
sentiment of the country favors the
protection of American industries. A
strenuous effort has been made during
the past two sessions to secure reduc-
ton of theswhiskey tax, but it utterly
failed. The reduction of taxation I'M
der the tariff, as re-adjusted, cannot be
estimated with any degree of accuracy ;
some members of Congress believe it
will be from $50, 900, 900 to $7O, 1000 900.

TROTTING HORSES At A DIS.
COUNT.

The Executive Committee of the
Racine County Agricultural Society,
at meeting last week, revised their
premium list. The total amount of
premiums to be awarded at the next
county fair to be held at Burlington in
September next is reduced between
FIVE and six hundred dollars from last
year. Much the larger part of the re-
duction of premiums are on horse trot-
ting matches. This action of the exc
cutive committee will doubtless be
satisfactory to majority of the farm
ers. Many of them fail to see any con-
nection between fast trotting horses
and the business of raising corn and
pumpkins, the manufacture of butter
and cheese, the best breeds of cows,
cattle for fatting, etc. Many judicious
persons believe it would be an improve
ment if the trials of speed for fast
horses were made separate exhibitions.
There are no doubt difference of opin-
ions as to what is mos. expedient and
the best policy to be pursued in rela-
ton to county agricultural fairs.

THE CIRCUIT UDGESHIP ONCE
MORE.

MOtAs
1t was stated in this paper last week
that nominating convention for the
Office of Circuit Judge was still an
open question. 1t has boone apparent
that convention for that purpose is
not of easy accomplishment. Some of
the most substantial citizens in the
country towns have, from the first,
deemed the calling Of a nominating
convention the better course; with
these sentiments we have been in &C.
cord. We have done what we believed
a duty in advocating adherence to the
practice first established after the adj
mission of Wisconsin into the union of
states. It remains for the people to
choose between the only two candi-
dates in the field. In view Of what we
believe to be for the best interests of
law and justice, we raise the name of
Hon. John T. Wentworth as our candi-
date for the Office Of circuit judge.
The friends of Judge Wentworth do
MOI claim he is faultless, but they
believe his judicial qualifications have
been unfairly represented. By refer
ence to the record Of appeals from his
decisions which have been taken to
the Supreme Court. it will be found he
stands fair in comparison with other
circuit judges in the matter of deci-
,ions affirmed and reversed. In re-
Jpect to his moral character and good !

THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC..

Richard Smith, of the Cincinnati
Gazette, makes the following assertions
upon the liquor traffic, which are well
worthy of consideration; Eighty-one
per cent. of all the crime in Cincinnati
is traceable to the use of intoxicating
liquors, and one-half of all the crime
is caused by the Incorporate use of in
toxicating liquors on Sunday. Out of
one hundred and tWenty-three saloon
keepers on one street in Cincinnati.
sixty. one pay no taxes, and none of the
rest pay more than thousand dollars
each. Eighteen brewers in Cincinnati
pay $7,052.26. and three thousand sa-
looms pay $6,1S2.29, making an aggre-
gate of $13,17455. The drv goods
house of John Shillito and Co. alone.
which closes on Sunday, paws over
$4,000 more than all the saloons ard
breweries. / have been Republican
ever since there was Republican
party. But if 1t is to be the tai, of the
kite which the men who want free
rum and no Sunday intend to fiy, then
it is time there was no Republican
party. If the Democratic partv is to
be tail to the liquor traffic it will die.
We are bound to go to the people, and
we shall win. If we go to the people
on the question, we will defeat the OBJ |
position, two to 0ne."

R4SHLNG SHEEP-

II has very properly been asked Can we
realize as much for our wool unwashed as
washed This question would not be ask "a
but for the fact that buyers in this Loo .iity
insist on discount of ene-third CD what
few unWashed feeces q wool grower may
happen to have. The grower knows this to
De unfair, but is obliged to submit to the
injustice. II is natural for the grower to
surmise that if his entire clip were unwashed
ne would be subjected to the same injustice
and his loss would be greater. If the wool
were any better for being washed, and the
manufacturer could afford to pay more for
secured pound OF it, there would be some
grounds for the practice of washing. But
the wool is not bettered in the least BY being
washed, and pound If secured wool from
an unwashed fleece is worth Just as much to
the manufacturer as q secured pound from
washed fleece. If all the wool in Kenosha
county were uuwashed it would be bought
on its merits, and no discount would enter
into the question.
There Is but small part of the wool crop
IN this state that is sheared washed, and
wherever it is sheared unwashed 1t - bought
at stated price per pound, its value being
determined by the amount of secured wool
IN pound of unwashed wool Unwashed
woods are quoted in all market reports with
the same prominence and regularity as
washed, and in fact there is very much more
unwashed than washed wools on the market
If the barbarous and injurious practice of
washing sheep were abolished in this county,
or even in any one town, the ghost of one
third discount, under whose cloak thousands
OF dollars have been unjustly taken from
the pockets of wool growers, would down
and hide itself forever. The wool growers
OF Kenosha county, especially those who
take pride in putting their wool on the
market in good condition, will never realize
the full value of their woel crop until the
practice of washings.is abolished. To abolish
the practice will do away with the labor
and expense of washing will save the
sheep from the injury which must in most
cases result, and will prevent all risk Of
injury to men who have to stay hours oftea
in cold water to wash the sheep. If ma
Jorlty of wool growers shear unwashed there
can be no loss in marketing, and to abolish
the practice will be to take step forward
in civilization.
| am IN receipt of several communications
from wool growers strongly in favor of the
reform, and pledging their best efforts to
inaugurate it. l should be glad 10 hear
from others. To bring the matter to sue
cessful issue will require the active co. opera.
ton of majority Of the wool growers Of this
county.
| hope to give notice in this weeks pa
pers of time and place of the first meeting in
their interest Very Respectfully.

the Church Temperance Society, the
headquarters of which is located in
New York. The Society is under the
auspices of the Protestant Episcopal
church; it's President is Bishop Ben
jamin B. Smith, with forty Episcopal
Bishops as Vice Presidents. This COM
bined organization of the highest off.
Gals of the church cannot fail Of render-
ing powerful aid to the cause OF temper
ance. Whatever has been said of the
conservatism of the Episcopal church
in the temperance cause, this united
movement for the suppression of the
evil of liquor drinking is worthy OF

of good order.
