predicted that it would be wasle OF
valuable time to attack the South Caro-.
lima University and the Citadel. The
greater part of the day Of Monday was
spent in fighting the appropriation in
the House, but it..passed by vote of 76
in favor to 80 opposed. This was proba-
bly, waste of over five hundred dollars
to accomplish no good, and ye' this same
foolishness is to be gone over within the
Senate. The obslructionists will learn

The House has passed bill to amend
the charter Of the city Of Anderson,
which was introduced by Col. Rucker.
1t was introduced. for the purpose of
permitting the collection OF sufficient
tax to meet the interest and installments
TO become due on the subscription 10 the
Savannah Valley Railroad, but instead
Of amending the Act authorizing the
collection of taxes 20 meet these bonds,
they have simply removed all limit upon
the taxing power OF the City Council.
The present charter limits the tax TO
thirty cents on the hundred dollars for
city purposes, and In our judgment this
Limitation should be restored. We be.
lieve nine out Of ten of our business men
concur ia this opinion. The amenied
bill was ;n.Toaa;aceeaa ;n.Toaa;aceeaa saaa passed the House
without the City Council ever being con.
sulted or even seeing its provisions, and
without any petition, as far as We can

the attention of the author OF the Rep.
resentatives, ,or 1t would have been cor.
sected. We trust this provision viii be
restored by the Senate. BY this means O
proper Limitation will be put on the city

Limitation than without it. =, ea..3

ALL BITTERNESS GONE OUT OF
THEIR S0lIl 6

Just before election some extreme
republicans were wont to boast that
Blaine would sweep the country like
a whirlwind; and, getting their oppo-
nents into corners, would treat them
as vile predestined democrats, and
talk of the democratic party being
antiquated, past its days of useful
ness, composed of the scum of the
earth, etc. Doubtless democrats
vowed then that if Cleveland should
be elected they would make the
lives of these self-righteous republi-
cans a burden to them. Blaine did
not sweep the country like whirl-
wind, Cleveland is elected president,
and all bitterness seems to have
gone out of the souls of democrats.
Their prosecutors have become very
tame, and by their meek looks
might be taken for liberal minded
patriots. Democrats do not ask that
they may be made like unto them;
but Involuntary exclaim: From
pride, vain glory and hypocrisy
good Lord deliver usl"
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1884-11-28

Just before election republican
politicians predicted that in the
the event of Cleveland's election
nearly every factory in The United
States would shut down, and mil
lions of workingmen would be
thrown out of employment. Well,
Cleveland is elected, and the advices
that come from eastern manufactur-
ing cities show that the republican
politicians have miserably failed to
rightly forecast the business situa-
ton of the country. Mills and fac
tories that have been closed for
some time are resuming operations.
The prosperity of the country, for
tunately, does not depend upon the
success of the republican party.

WHAT BLAINE SHOULD HAVE SAID.

1t is generally admitted that the
foolish utterance of the Rev. DIR.
Burchard in regard to Rum, Roman
ism and Rebellion lost Mr.. Blaine
the electoral vote of New York.
Geo w. Peck, who with all his fun,
usually rises to the level of every
grand occasion, tells how Mr.. Blaine
could have averted the calamity
which befel him on account of Bur-
chard's ALTERATION. He says:
"When the delegation of ministers
called upon Mr.. Blaine at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel and presented an
address through the bigoted and
egotistical ass, Burchard, suppose
Mr., Blaine had replied as follows:
"GENTLEMEN-I am indeed CRATE
full for the kind words expressed to-
wards me by representatives Of some
of the christian churches, and thank
you, but l ask you as favor to
me and to the best interests OF our
country, to retract certain remarks.
| do not wish to disturb the hilarity
of this occasion, but some gentleman,
inadvertently | trust, has got re-
mark into this address that is a
diabolical outrage upon a religion
that is as pure as yours and mine.
When you characterize the demo-
cratic party as one of Rum and
Rebellion, have not much to say,
but when you use the words Rum,
Romanism and Rebellion, J" you slur
the religion in which my sainted
mother lived and died, and which
was my religion until | arrived at
the age of indiscretion. A church,
gentlemen, that is always foremost
in good works, church whose
angels of Mercy are first to appear
when the plague raises It's head,
whose gentle hands minister to the
dying Of whatever religion, should
not be insulted by any old nine spot,
and l want to say to you that l can
whip any man, / don't care if he Is
a hundred years old, who makes
such break as that, who goes off
half cooked when nobody knows he
is loaded. All of your remarks
about my being devil Of a fellow
| endorse, but you want to leave out
that Rum, Romanism and rebellion
business or you are no friends OF
mine. That is the kind Of hair
pin am. Burn this letter"
We'll, if Mr.. Blaine had not lost
his cud, and had made few re-
marks like that, at the proper time,
he would have been elected presl-
dent. But he didn't. If candidates
for office would let The Sun write
speeches for them there would be
more of them elected"

Perils OF Our Inland Seas.

II would rather cross the ocean
twenty times, at this season of the year.
than make one trip from the st. Law
renee River to Chicago on tho lakes
said Captain Ira Brown, an old Lake
Erie skipper The annual loss of life
and property on the lakes is proper
tionately very much greater than it is
on the Atlantic Ocean, and you may
always expect to hear of disasters on
the great lakes following the reports of
every severe storm. Lake shippers
will take risks that would appall the
bTavest ocean sailor. They will start
from port with vessels that are hardly
seaworthy in the calmest weather, and
moro of them are afloat during the
most dangerous part of the year than
during any other time. This is because
the months of October and November
are the most profitable TO vessel owners,
cargoes then being plenty and freight
rates higher.
'Grain shipments are livelier as the
season draws to g close, and every YES
sci that will float can command cargo
The sailing season is very short on the
lakes, as it is late in the spring before
the ice embargo is removed, and early
in the winter when it again closes navi-
CATION. The shippers desire is to take
advantage of every hour of his time,
and, Notwithstanding the fact that he is
liable to be overtaken at any moment
by storms of great violence, he takes no
precaution that will subject him to the
least delay in port.
"This reckless disregard for life and
property enlisted no interference on the
part, even, of shippers, who are the par
ties most interested, until a few years
ago, when a movement was made to
have inspectors appointed by the Gov
eminent to examine the vessels in the
grain trade of the lakes. But from all
accounts, there are still many worthless
hulks plying between Oswego and Chi
cago.
1.-THE dangers Of lake navigation arc
so great that even the stanchest vessels
are frequently unable to escape them.
Storms sweep over the lakes without
any warning. The November storms
on Lake Erie are frightful, and the sail
ors depend to great extent on land
marks as guides in navigation. The
binding sleet that nearly always ac-
companies the storms obliteratec these
marks sometimes for days, and, as
the sea room is limited, vessels caught
in these storms are in constant danger
of going to pieces either on the rocky
shores or on some of the islands that
stud these inland seas.
Lake 0ntario's shores are especial
ly menacing to lake craft during
storms, but, fortunately, this lake is not
so liable to be swept by gales as some
of the others in the chain. Ii vessel
heaves to in a storm it Is almost certain
to be drifted ashore; or If it runs down
the lake toward the st. Lawrence River
it is endangered by the many islands
that abound there.
MANY shippers have wrecked their
vessels in the risky effort to make Os-
wego harbor in storm. The entrance
to this harbor is very narrow, and the
vessel that is steered for it and does not
make it is almos. certain to go to
pieces on the rocks under Fort Ontario.

THE DEMOCRAT.
Mineral Point, Friday, Nov. 28, 1884.
Geo. Crawford, Robt. NJ. Crawford,
EDITORS AND PRoPRrEroRs

Congress is bound to make some
reduction in Il Eation in the near
future. Duties on imports must be
reduced or else the internal taxes on
liquors and tobaccos must 60. This
is the way the issue will be joined,
the high tariff men of both parties
ranging themselves upon one side
and the tariff reformers upon the
other. On this issue we believe that
the people of the Third Wisconsin
district is now rightly represented in
in the forty-eighth congress, by Hon.
Burr w. Jones; and that he voiced
the sentiments of very large major
ity of his constituents when, in his
speech on the bonded whiskey bill,
he declared that the popular senti-
ment in the northwest begs for relief
from taxation upon the necessaries,
not the luxuries, of life" "In
my judgment" he said eff you
will give to our people free salt, free
sugar, free coal, free lumber, there
will be no wailing or crashing Of
teeth because whiskey pays a tax"
But whatever action is taken by the
present congress at the coming ses-
sion, this matter of tax reduction
will undoubtedly be carried over to
perplex the members of the Forty
ninth congress. And therefore we
would like to know how this district
will be represented by Hon. R. M.
LaFollette, who was carried through
with the presidential ticket. VIII
he maintain his avowed position in
favor of high protection, and vote to
reduce the taxes on liquors and
tobaccos, while exorbitant tariff
taxes are kept up on articles of
prime necessity; or will he recede
from it when confronted by the
question in that shape? If any of
Mr.. LaFollette's friends can give us
any information in regard to his
probable action in such a con-
tingency, we would like to hear
from them. But probably their
minds have been too full of clap
trap about protecting American
labor" to have ever given such a
practical matter a thought.
