Peace, buzzing harbinger of balmy Spring!
Gyrations devious
Can only cripple thy rheumatic wing,
Or leave thee but poor, frost bitten thing;
Thou art too previous.
60, HE thee to some sunny window ledge,
And dream of June,
OF sunburned noses, bald and shaven heads,
OF tonsured priests, OF restless sinners beds;
Thou art too soon.
Wait till our flesh be cooked to suit thy taste
Lest thou regret it.
Forbear this greedy and uDseemly haste;
Thou'rt out of season, wanton and unchaste,
And don't forget it.
Wait, fell destroyer Of our slumber sweet,
Till by-and.by;
TIL Summer stirs our blood to fever heat,
And frenzy trails from thy persistent feet.
Thou art too fly.

One. of the most successful polit-
ical meetings of the campaign was
held at Highland ON Friday evening,
October "a. There was fine torch
light procession. led by the High
land band. About five hundred
persons attended the meeting, and
excellent speeches were delivered
by J. M. Smith and D. B. Jones,
of this city. Mr.. Jones spoke for
about an hour and half. He very
ably discussed the tariff question,
clearly showing the folly of attrib-
uting to legislation the blessings
which are bestowed upon US by
the Creator. He commanded the
closest attention of the audience,
and received frequent applause.
Mr.. Smith followed Mr.. Jones in
a powerful speech, occupying about
an hour. He kept the audience
in the best of humor, and the stories
with which he illustrated his re.
marks repeatedly brought down the
house. The hall was nicely dec
Grated with notices, banners, and
flowers which reflected great credit
upon the ladies of Highland.

IT WILL NOT DIE.

Before another issue of The DEM
ocrat the political contest of 1884
will be decided. That the cause
of the people will triumph we have
not a shadow of doubt. The pros
poets Of complete democratic vic
tory have been growing brighter
and brighter, and the overthrow OF
the corrupt leaders who now control
the republican party appears to be
as certain as that to-morrow's sun
will rise. 1t will, we believe, be a
democratic victory in the broadest
and truest sense of the term
not mere party success, but
the triumph of principles and the
election of a chief executive whose
record and character stand for ad.
ministrative reform.

The editor of The Dodgeville
Chronicle ought to hide himself
until after election, at least. Two
weeks ago he made what he sup
posed was going to be a telling
campaign hit, by attacking the
democrats Of Iowa county for run
ming Richard Manning, who is the
owner of a saloon, for sheriff. 1t
appears, however, that w. A. Owens,
the candidate of the g. 0. p, who
opposeses Mr.. Manning is not the
owner of saloon, but is by pro-
fession a bartender, and has served
out liquor to the thirsty public
over a Dodgeville bar during the
past summer.

One bugaboo which republicans
have used effectively in the lead
region of Wisconsin in former cam
paigns will have no force this year.
1t has been claimed by them that
our mining interests were depend
ent upon high tariff laws, and
would be materially injured by
reduction of import duties. In 1876
the whispering committees whose
business it was to frighten miners
by this claim, said, that in case
the democrats should be success
full, and bring about the tariff
reform they demanded, lead ore
(Which was then selling at about
twenty dollars would not bring
more than fifteen dollars per thou
sand pounds. By positively assert
ing this claim they undoubtedly
induced many miners of democratic
tendencies to vote the republican
ticket. Well, Hayes was inagura-
ted, and no tariff reform measure
was passed; but for the two years
following lead ore sold at from ten
to eleven dollars per thousand-by
far the lowest prices ever known.
Since that time we have not heard
very much about the injury of our
mining interests from tariff reform.
Although on the eve of election in
1882 letter from q smelter from
somewhere about Hazel Green, who
claimed that our mining interests
are wholly sustained by protection,
was widely circulated. This year,
however, the democrats have a pre-
ponderance of expert testimony.
Mr.. D. B. Jones, proprietor of the
Mineral Point Zinc Works is going
about through southwestern Wis
consin eloquently preaching the
doctrine of commercial freedom, and
advocating the election of Cleveland
and Hendricks, and Burr w. jones,
on this ground. And Mr.. Hegeler,
of the firm of Mattheison & Hegeler,
of LaSalle, H., who has heretofore
been republican, comes out as one
of Carl Shurz' independent repub-
leans, and in an able letter de-
claring his intention to support the
democratic nominees, gives good
and sufficient reasons why our tariff
laws ought to be Immediately and
thoroughly reformed, and all duties
levied upon a revenue basis In
this case the high tariff arguments
have simply petered out as they
invariably do sooner or later.

The last line of transatlantic
steamers carrying the American flag
has been sold. The sailor boys can
now resort to the canals and riv-
ers in this glorious country where
trade is free, and where, no doubt,
they will find the full benefits
accruing to labor from protection
of such infant industries as the
manufacture of pine lumber, by
entering upon the avocation of log
sailors under the gentle care of
congressman Price and Stephenson,
who advocate protection solely for
the benefit of their employees

Republican campaign speaker

Republican campaign speakers
and republican newspapers boldly
assert that there is really no surplus
of any consequence in the treasury.
The message of the president and
the report of the secretary Of the
treasury, forthcoming in December.
will show that there is an i'm
mense surplus, and that all state
ments to the contrary are utterly
false. But election will be over by
that time, and a lie well stuck to
will have answered the purpose Of
the campaign as well as the truth.

To THE EDIToRs:-In the last issue of The
Dodgeville Sun there appeared an article re-
fecting on the official act of Vim. II. Keane
in publishing the tax list of 1884 in The Dodge
Vile Star In the same article the undersigned
are mentioned rs being lawyers of the county
who have expressed an opinion against the
egality of such publication That there has
been some question as to the legality of the
publication, and that it would have avoided
any question to have published it in some of
the other county papers is true. Yet it is
equally true that other lawyers have contended
that such publication was legal. If Mr.. Keane
consulted the district attorney, whose advice
should govern his action when in doubt of its
legality, he did all that could be asked OF him.
And to hold him respo nsible for not knowing
the law is as absurd as to hold jury respon-
sible that has followed the direction of the
circuit Judge,
Mr.. Keane has made faithful and honest
officer. and one who has endeavored to dis
charge his official duty in the interest of the
people he has served, and regret the at
tempt of The Dodgeville Sun to prejudice the
minds of the people againt him.
