That our naturalization laws are
defective in many respects is motor
ious, and the demand for their re-
vision will no doubt acquire added
force from the publication of an
article by Justice William Strong
upon that subject in the North
American Review for May. In the
same number of the review, Edwin
P. Nipple offers candid judgment
as thinker and as man of letters.
Richard A. Proctor, under the title
of "a Zone of Worlds" writes of
the vast multitude of the pigmy
kindred of the earth, known as the
asteroids. In "The Railway and
the State" Gerrit L. Lansing essays
to prove that the multiplication and
extension of railroad lines, and the
establishment of low rates of trans
portation, are hindered rather than
helped by the governmental inte-
ference. Prof. Henry Osborn, of
Princeton College, has highly inter-
esting article on illusions of Mem

Charles Reade, the eminent Eng
fish novelist, who died in London,
April IL, was born in 1914, at Fps
den House, Oxfordshire, England.
His father was an eminent scholar
and his mother . lady OF unsual in
tellectual strength. He was edu-
Gated at Magdalena College, Oxford.
After graduating he read law, gained
Ninerian fellowship at the Unive-
sitv of Oxford, in 1912, and was
called to the bar the year after. He
never practiced law, but adopted a
literary life, occupying its earlier
years in writing for newspapers and
magazines. His first novel was
Peg Woffington," published in
1858. Christie tombstone" issued
the same year, was well received. 1t
is Never too Late to Mend, produced
in 1856, dealt severely with certain
abuses of prison discipline, and Gre
ated great excitement. Henceforward
every work from Mr.. Reade's pen was
welcomed eagerly. The list OF his
works includes, in addition to those
already mentioned, The Course of
True Love-" Jack of all Trades, !"
"Love Me Little, Love Me Long"
"White Lies" THE Cloister and
HEARTH" which is, perhaps, the
ablest of his books. Hard Cash"
"Griflith Gaunt," Put yourself in
His place." and "A Terrible Temp
tation." His pen has proved mex
ceptionally powerful, dealing Incl
IDENTIFY with social wrongs, and
severely condeming their perpetra-
tors.
Few writers if any, have covered
a wider range than he in the variety
of fiction originating in the view of
motives and impulses arising from
other passions than that of love.
Charles Read was a successful dra-
matist. He published Gold" in
1913, the first of his plays. Masks
and Faces, y" Two Lovers and q Life, y
and the Kings Rival" followed at
intervals. Several of his stories
have been dramatized. Notably
Griffith Gaunt," by Augustin
DAILY. American readers Will re-
member Mr.. Reade's suit against
the New York Times because it had
characterised Griffith Gaunt" as
an immoral production. Six cents
damages were awarded the irate nov
elist by the jury sitting on the case.
The deceased writer was a man of
great force and originality of charac-
ter. He loved and hated with We
hemance. His pen was far from
being squeamish, for it wrote the
truth, and he was unquestionably
a great master of the knowledg of
human nature.

Demoeratie state Convention.

A convention of the democratic party OF the
state Of Wisconsin is hereby called to assemble
at Madison, on Wednesday, the 18th OF May,
1884, at u o'clock, noon, for the purpose of
electing twenty-five delegates = four from the
state at large and two from each congressional
districts with aIternates, to the national demo-
cratic convention at Chicago on the sth day of
July, 1884, to place in nomination eleven presiden-
tial electors to be supported at the next general
election; to appoint state central committee,
and TO transact such other business as may prop
erly come before the convention. All democratic
and other citizens of Wisconsin who can unite in
an effort for pure, economical and constitutional
government, and those who believe that a sub
stantial reduction of existing tariff duties is
demanded, not only as measure Of justice to
consumers, but one conclusive to the general
industrial prosperity, invited to join in cleo
ting delegates to this convention. Each senate
rial and assembly district will be entitled to two
delegates. WENDELL A. ANDERSON, Chm.

again we would urge the importance of Sc
frmness of character. and devotion to the right
as It shall appear when the time comes to act.
Such men are plenty in the state and in this
district. One of them we viii name to wit:
DIR. J. H. Vivian; and confidently submit to his
wide circle Of acquaintance that he fills the
bill perfectly. "-Tribune.
The motion is a good one, and
though perhaps not our place
to do SO, we would respectfully
second it. Besides being one of
our own citizens, the gentleman
named is eminently sound on the
great political question of the day,
being a consistent tariff reformer.
If he should be placed on the
committee on platform, the tariff
plank would no doubt be all that
tariff for-revenue-only democrat
could desire. But there is no prob
ability that he will get there. The
idea that "men of the best firmness
of character and devotion to the
right" are wanted in republican
national convention, is too rich for
anything. Men who will assist in
continuing among other abuses the
thieving policy of the party which
sets itself up as the champion of So
called protection are wanted, and
none others need apply. Such men
as DR.. Vivian are altogether out of
place in a republican national con-
vention of the present day. The
thing is run upon new and improved
methods and not in the old fashioned
way it was when their ideas of firm
ness and devotion to right were
formed.

County Committee.

There seems to be quite deter
mined revolt in the republican camp
against the bossing by Gov. Rusk.
1t is charged that he is unduly in
terfering with the primaries for the
selection of delegates to Chicago.
Some independent members of the
party seem inclined to resent this
interference, and are expressing their
dissatisfaction in strong and unequiv-
ocal language. The Republican and
Leader, of La Crosse, is very out
spoken in its opposition to the ma
chine which is now running the
party in Wisconsin; while The
Oconto Reporter wants convention
of independent republicans called
to meet at Madison to break the
slate of the bosses and save the re
publican party from defeat this fall.
The game which Governor Jere-
miah Rusk and his crowd..are play
ing in Wisconsin politics has become
too transparent and will not win any
longer. People are no longer easily
taken in by shallow, scheming poll
ticians who rely upon the art of
Misunderstanding and great personal &C
quaintance for election to important
offices for which they are not at all
qualified. The kind of methods en-
ployed by the republican machine
in Wisconsin is most strikingly illus
trated in the attitude of the party
on the temperance question. While
trying to retain the support of the
liquor men by refusing any conces-
sions to the temperance men by way
of legislation, the republican leaders
attempt to stihe the prohibition
movement by rewarding with fat
offices avowed prohibitionists, who
refuse to join the independent tenn
perence party. This is only one
illustration of the policy of the willy
Jerry for placating and controlling
Independent members of the g. o. p.
who do not coincide with the bosses,
and show a disposition to think and
act for themselves. If it is carried
out to its fullest extent in the at
tempt to discourage the independ-
ent temperance movement it is be-
cause the need is thought to be most
desperate. A revolt from such q
policy is of course the natural result
if there is the least bit of independ-
ent, manly spirit left in the party.
That this revolt should be so long
delayed is the only wonder,
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1884-04-25

The Courier Journal short time
ago advised democratic tariff reform
ers not to say much as to the future
course of the party until they learn
ed the fate of the Morrison tariff
bill, but now it is jubilant over the
victory secured by Mr.. Morrison on
the motion to go into committee of
the whole on consideration of the
bill. In its last issue The Courier
Journal says:
"At last the democrats of the national house
of representatives have decided that we have a
democratic party. Mr.. Morrison has carried his
point and his bin to reduce war taxes will be
considered. The vote, had been expected,
was close-1SS to 100"
TO pass there was such scanty room,
The bars descending grazed his plume"
Yet miss is as good as a mile and, in this
second defeat, those who, elected as democrats,
are in collision and conspiracy with the Re
puhlicaus TO obstruct a Democratic measure,
Protection and Protectionisls. within Democratic
lines are sealed"
q" Undoubtedly the Morrison bill will gain
| strength as it is discussed. 1t is most con.
| sentative measure, and no Democrat can oppose IL
| and maintain himself either in the argument or
before his constituents. We leave those Demo-
Gratis who voted with the Republicans to stife
the movement and utteranee Of their party upon
great and vital issue to take care of themselves
and may the Lord have mercy upon them, for
they need all they can get"
And now let the good work so on. Let
Democrats define themselves copiously and
| clearly. Let no man be afraid to speak and
speak freely The star-eyed Goddess of Reform
with crest erect and arm uplifted. holds the
lance of truth over the bafied and cowerins
