RANDALL. WIS. June L. lSS.


EDITOR TELEGRAPH / notice that
our talented correspondent. in speak
ing of the nomination for President,
has Informed the readers Of the TELE-
GRAPH that Garfield got every Repub-
lican vote in town four years ago.
He might have stated also some that
usually vote the Democratic ticket.
He further says that Blaine's vote
this fall will fall far short of Garfield's
four years ago. | see that he has fail
ell back and taken up one of his for
mer errors of predicting and giving
information through Republican pa
per as local correspondent to Repub-
licans, which | consider wrong, as
each and every Republic IN at such
times as this (however he may be a
reader of one or more daily papers) ex.
poets through the columns of our
county papers to get the feelings in re-
gard to all nominations, and as such
usually come through town CORES
pondents we expect and are better
pleased with such reports if coming
from one that can be considered sup
porter of the Republican party. We
have noticed marked improvement
of late over his former correspondence
since taking unto himself one of Keno
sha's fair daughters to share his Joys
and sorrows, and we had hoped there
might be continuance of the same in
the future. But. like all that is NOR
tai, we are doomed to disappointment.
Now. in regard to the Republicans of
the town of Randall, they certainly
have not all had their first choice
seconded at the National convention at
Chicago, neither do we all have them
seconded in state, congressional, as
sembly or county conventions Tor even
in town caucuses) but, gentlemen, l
think | am safe in saying that very
large per cent of the Republicans Of
this county can and will throw aside
all personal feelings, whether first
choice or not, and give the nominee
their hearty support.
| Readers of the TELEGRAPH. we
promise you our old-time Republican
vote this fall from the little town of
Randall. There never was time in
SO holly contested a nomination as
was had at Chicago but what many
were sore over the defeat of their
choice. Four years ago the contestants
did not either receive the nomination.
but went to compromise candidate
and left no visible soreness, and we
will find true Republicans think more
of principle than choice with their
shoulders at the wheel this fall.

A Milwaukee paper speaks of thirty.
two members of the City Council meet
ing at the Court House for business on
Monday last, a portion of whom were
minus vests and shirt collars. Alb.
Stractly considered, there is nothing So
very Objectionable for honorable mem
bers of the Council to be seen in such
undress costume. 1t is in fact in keep
ing with their official action when
they reverse the decision of the Mayor,
who refused to grant license to par
ties TO open drinking place to be
known as the Young Mems Christian
Association Saloon.

BOSTON',S OPPOSITION 10
BLAINE.

The question is easily answered why
Boston people are not satisfied with
Blaine. Boston is city of preten-
tiously high-blooded gentlemen, who
pride themselves on their superiority
to the rest of mankind. Blaine IS not
one of their style he follows not after
their aristocratic ways. nor does he
court their admiration. Blaine
CLAIMS no titled ancestry has never
belonged to the nobility of wealth ; he
sprang from plain Puritan stock he
is the associate and friend of the COM
mon people. The proud high-shirt-
collared and elegantly-clad, lordly-man-
nered people of Boston think Blaine

We have been presented by Mr.. Fl.
B. Hmsdale with a box of strawberries
grown on his grounds in this city,
which are of extraordinary size. They
are new variety called "Seth Boy

little over AZ inches in circumference
Perhaps some one in the city or county
can report larger Strawberries. but that
is doubtful.

KEMPER HALL.

The closing exercises at Kemper
Hall occurred OH Tuesday las. A
considerable number of visitors from
a distance were in attendance, who.
added to the city visitors, quite filled
the room allotted to spectators. The
programme was attractively arranged
and carried out satisfactorily. The
cantata was especially fine, and elicit
ed much admiration. All the pupils
who took part In the exercises gave
evidence of much careful training.
Kemper Hall is unquestionably under
the guidance of competent teachers.
The number of pupils whose names
appear on the catalogue is sixty-six'
Three graduates received diplomas
Miss Belle Sinclair CaprOn, Miss
Martha Amanda Bnrleson and Miss
Kate Stephens. 1t is reasonable to in
fer the past term of the school has
been a profitable one. and that the
pupils will return to their homes i'm
proved in mental culture, and fitted to
adorn society.
The surroundings of Kemper Hall
at this season of the year are surpass.
ingly lovely. On the shore of that
grand inland water Lake Michigan
shut out from the noise and tumu1t OF
business, free from the intrusion of all
improper persons, the grounds
adorned with beautiful trees, whose
outrageous shade renders the walks
delightful, Kemper Hall yields to
no other place in the west for beau
ty of location.

The great body of the legal voters
of the county can well remember
as far back as the war of the re-
bellion They know what sacrifice
of human life it cost to save the Union
from being oyerthrown by the rebels.
1t now comes to pass that the very reb-
els who sought to take the life of the
nation, aided by their northern Demo-
cratic allies, have the effrontery to de-
mand that the Government they tried
to destroy shall henceforth be put into
their hands for control and manage
ment. Will the people consent to hav-
ing the Government taken from those
who have been its friends and preserv-
ers since the rebellion and put into
the hands of its late enemies and
w0uld-be destroyersf

An anti-polygamy bill has passed
the United States Senate far more
stringent in its provisions than any
former attempted enactment for the
suppression of that crime. 1t has yet
to pass the House of Representative .
1t is believed by those most competent
to Judge of its provisions that it will
prove, if it finally passes, an effectual
preventive of Mormonism.

The amount of state school money ap
portioned to Kenosha county this year
is S1,96S.96. This is a small increase
over the amount apportioned to this

fund had not all been out at interest

The letter of Tilden's, positively de-

In answer to inquiry of several pro-

A LONG WOOL LETTER.

The following letter will shed light on
some points of great interest to wool
growers. The queries were based on
statements made by wool grower of
this county, and are substantially as fol-
lows: That Mr.. ]. P. Bishops clip of
wool (sheared early unwashed) is as
light and clean as if the sheep were
washed and sheared later in hot weather
that take three-quarters OF it in pile
beside pile of washed fleece and in ap-
pearance it. could not be distinguished
from it +; and that if Mr.. Bishops wool
is sold at the price of unwashed wool he
will losea hundred dollars. The state
ment that unwashed woods canbe graded
with closer uniformity than washed as
to the per cent of shrinkage will be cor
roborated by the observation of every
wool grower. And this fact insures
their being sold at price closer to their
intrinsic value. I hope that Mr.. Allen
will be able to attend our next quarterly
meeting. 1t will be a benefit to our
wool growers to meet man so expert
enced.in the handling and sale of wool

days ago the law having made it legal Tor
squirrel shooting, Messrs. Alexander, and
William Titman, of Walnut Valley, started
in search of this game, and were tolerabiy
successful in their efforts. After they had
come upon what is known as the Wiilever
property, some three miles from this town,
along the mountain, they were travelling
along at 9 moderate pace looking to the top
of the trees for !, shot at a squirrel. Ii was
while thus engaged and whcn near u slen-
der birch tree, Alexander SAW rattieSnake
at least forty feet from the ground, dangling
from the limb of the tree. After watching

il wriggling 10 the ground, when 1t was
found that the snake bore nine rattles, ana
was of unusual size. The tree which the
snake had ascended 10 such height was N
