Decisions in wisconsin.

MADISON, Wis, Special Telegram, Jan. S.
The supreme court met to-day and rendered
a number of decisions, but two of which are
of any public Importance. In the case OF
]. P. @. Cottrill, Milwaukee, against William
Z. Cramer, of the Evening Wisconsin, for
libel, the Judgment of the county court of
Milwaukee county was reversed, and the
cause was remanded for n new trial. Cot
trill sued Cramer for $4,000 damages for
libel, and the county court awarded him six
cents damages and six cents costs. Chief
Justice Cole, who rendered the opinion, held
that
AS the jury in the county court had found that
the defendant, William +. Cramer, in writing
and printing the article set forth in the COM
plant knew it to be false and not a fair criticism
Of the speeches of the plaintiff as a public man
on subjects concerning the public, 1t would re.
quire no argument to show that the plaintiff was
entitled to substantial damages.
In the case of Hattie Bradley against Will
lam i. Cralner, also for libel, the court re.
versed the order of the circuit court of Mil
waukee county and remanded the cause fol-
further proceedings according to law. The
committed suicide in Kenosha county Dec.
25. 1881, and action was brought against
defendant as publisher of the Evening Wis
consin of Milwaukee, for publishing as an ex.
PLANTATION of the probable cause of Brndley's
suicide an article which reflected on the plain
tiff, and which was alleged to be n malicious
libel. h circuit court sustained the demur-
rer to the complaint on the ground that it die
not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause
for action, and this was the ruling the su.
preme court reversed to-day.

CHICAGO, Special Telegram, Jan. s.-Hon. John

also have been guilty of some indiscrctions. He
said he did not think congress would admit Da-
kota this winter, the Democrats being too wise
to give the Republicans three extra electoral

would be settled soon. There would continue to

A TRUE STORY.
BY Able KTNNE.

Where's the baby. grandmam mma!"
The sweet young mother calls
From her work In the cosy kitchen.
With its dainty whitewashed walls.
And grandma leaves her knitting,
And looks for her all around,
But not trace Of baby dear
Can anywhere be found.
No sound Of It's merry prattle.
No CLEAN OF Is sunny hair,
No patter OF tiny footsteps,
No sign Of 1t anywhere.
All through the house and garden,
Far ont into the field,
They search each nook end corner,
Eut nothing Il reyealed.
And the mothers face grew pallid:
Grandmamma's eyes grew dim:
The fathers gone to the village,
No uae to look for him.
And the baby's lost! where's Ioycr?-
The mother chanced to think
OF the old well In the orchard
Where the cattle used to drink.
Where's Rover? know he'd find her!
Rover!" In vain they CALL
They hurry away to the orchard,
And there by the moss grown wall,
Close to the well, lies Rover.
Holding to baby's dress:
She was leaning over the wells edge
In perfect fearlessness!
She stretched her little arms down,
But Rover held her fast,
And never seemed to mind the kicks
The tiny bare feet cast
So sptefully nron him,
But waggcd his tail inst ,ad,
To greet the frightened searchers,
While naughty baby said
"Derc's title dirl In the 'ater;
She's dust as big as me;
Mamma. want to help her OUT,
And take her home to TIA,
But Rover, he won't let me,
And don't love him. Go
Away you naughty Rover!
Oh! why are you crying so?"
The mother kissed her, saying:
MY darling, understand,
Good Rover saved your life, my dear
And. see, he licks your hand!
Kiss Rover" Baby struck him,
But grandma under.tooi:
She said: Its hard to thank the friend
Who thwarts US for our good"

ocean, and the matter had been the sub
ject of discussion between himself and
the President and other members of the
Cabinet. It is understood the subject
has recently taken definite furm, and
the Secretary, requiring q sum of mon
ey estimated at 100000 for the purp ose
OF carrying his views into..e fleet, recent
ly communicated with the committee
of the Senate on the subject. The mat
ter was under consideration by the Sem
ate in secret session to-day, but no con-
ClusiOn was reached.
THE president sent to the senate a
message suggesting the prOpriety of
congress appropriating 1888, 600 for the
purpose Of making a complete and
harmonious selection of exhibitions on
behalf of the government for the New
Orleans exposition. 1t was referred to
the committee on appropriations. The
purposes, and benefits of the New
ORLEANS exhibition are continental in
their scope. Standing at the threshold
almost of the unopened markets of
Spanish and Portuguese America,
New Orleans is the natural gateway to
their trade and the exhibition offers TO
the people of Mexico and Central and
South America adequate knowledge of
our farming implements, mental manu-
features. cotton and wooden goods, and
ike necessities, in respect to which
those countries are either deficient or
supplied to a limited extent. The
breaking down of the barriers which
still separate us from the republics of
America, whose productions so entirely
complement our own, will aid greatly
in removing disparity of commercial
intercourse under which less than 10
per cent. of our exports goes to Ameri-
can countries. [ trust congress will
realize the urgency of this recommen-
dation and make it's appropriation i'm
mediately available so the board may
lose no time in undertaking the extern
sive preparations necessary to spread
more intimate knowledge of our govern
mental institutions and national re-
sources among the people of our country
and neighboring states in 9, way to COM
mand the respect due it in the family
of nations"

The Kaiser's Life-WOrk.

The German Emperor looks upon
himself as the first servant of the
nation; and even now, with 81 sum-
mers on his brow, he works Incessant-
ly and unsparIngly for its veal. He
has repeatedly declared that the woes
Of the workingman sit heaviest on
his heart, and that if he could but do
something to better the lot of his
poorer subjects he would deem that
the clsse of his reign had been richly
blest. The Emperor William has
been called a prince of peace. EIe
had done all he could to appease and
remove the causes of popular discon-
tent in his own dOminions, and even
his foes will not deny that he is peace
keeper of Europe. About sixteen years
ago, in the course of a hot discussion
in the North German Parliament on
the naval budget, Count Won Moltke
said that there was only one possible
way Of converting the money spent
in the service Of war to the interests
of peace, and that was 'the forma-
ton in the heart Europe of a power
which, without being aggressive itself,
should yet be strong enough to forbid
its neighbors from waging war. +"
This wonderful prophecy has now
been fulfilled, and the German
Emperor is the instrument of It's
realization. The German army is the
police force of Europe, aud yet
Europe is content to profit by it's
passive services without much snow
of appreciation. But what Europe
fails TO express the German people
themselves most warmly feel No
sovereign was ever more popular with
his subject than is the octogenarian
Kaiser. Berlin is q cold and unrev-
erentlal city, but when the Emperor
drives through it's streets the un1ver
sal veneration of which be is the OBJ
ject lends them an Oriental air oil
