The test vote in the election of Lynch
over Clayton, shows Blaine far stronger
than any of his opponents were willing
to admit. 1t was Blaine against the field
and he had 3S7 votes, or within "a of
enough to secure the nomination when
balloting should begin. Still it is ques-
tionable whether he will be nominated.
1t is certain Arthur will not be, and Ed
munds' boom had a sudden collapse
The dark horse will win as he has in the
last two conventions and it likely will be
General Sherman.

POLITICS make strange bed-fellows.
-Four years ago Arthur was completely
under the direction of Conkling. He
had no thought which could be antagon-
lstlc to the wish of his chief. He be-
came president and gave offense to Conk-
ling because he did not pattern after
Grants corrupt administration. To-day
Conkling prefers Blaine to Arthur. He
would rather see his hereditary enemy
nominated than bis former friend and
disciple.

On Saturday last the bookkeper in a
Wausau bank stepped up to clerk in
the same house, and placing a revolver
to his head, shot him dead. The muir.
derer at once went to the Jail and gave
himself up. No cause is assigned for
the homicide. The young men were
friends and never had quarreled. The
murdered man had resigned his position
and was about to leave for New York the
Monday following.

The state of New York will have no
more trouble with bible reading and re.
ligicus exercises in schools. The matter
has about died out in Wisconsin also.
1t was contest of obstinacy on both
sides. The advocates of the bible read
ing didn't care cent whether it did any
good or not. The fact is they read the
bible but very little except where to do
SO would cause disturbance. Those
opposed to the reading couldn't explain
wherein the harm was and so the two
parties stood confronting each other and
dragging the Almighty into their narrow
contention. Prayer does not seem to be
addressed to God any more or if SO he
can hear only when a crowd are present.

The Sharon divorce case is dirty one
and leads one to believe that California
is on level with Louisiana in the mat
ter of mendacity. Most of Miss Hills
able bodied witnesses have gone back on
their testimony and acknowledge having
been bribed to testify as they had done
in her interest. Now the suspicion
grows that Sharon has bribed them to
go back on their former testimony.
Sharon, IN his own admission, is an
old protigat'. He paid Miss Hill $500
per month for living with him as his
mistress. He acknowledges having en-
gagged many women in that capacity.

THp Nv Tribune is so generally re-

THE n. Y. Tribune is SO generally re-
cognized as the organ of monopolists that
when it grows most eloquent in their be-
half the strains are of the machine kind.
Lately the California legislature made
an attempt to tax railroads. 1t failed;
every movement of that kind will come
to naught until the people cease to back
aggregations of wealth. The Tribune
speaks of the attempt to tax railroads as
''raid upon capital by demagogues. "
And ventures the opinion "that in the
future, corporations will be allowed to
manage their own business without mo-
lestation."
Yes, capital must not be compelled to
pay taxes. Capital must be protected
by excluding from the market the pro-
ducts of foreign capital. There must be
protection. Railroads pay no tax on
depots, grounds, track, right of way or
rolling stock. Their property is exempt
from taxation. When grant of land is
made to railroad corporation, these
lands are exempt from taxation. Just
as soon as the land passes into the hands
of some poor man struggling to make a
home fcc his family, the land is taxed.
1t is exempt while owned by capital;
taxed when owned by the immigrant
whose means are so small that his family
often suffer for the necessities of life.
To tax such property while in the
hands of corporations, is a raid upon
capital. To lower the excessive taxes
now charged upon some of the neces-
saries of life in the interests of the peo-
pie is also raid upon capital.

THERE is kind of poetic justice in
the defeat of Clayton as temporary chair

craftsmanship of a national convention.

and punished the traitor in such man.

first instance On record of the nomination
of the committee not being Endorsed.
Had his nomination come in the regular
way he would have encountered no OPP
position. But like Malone he sold him
self, but fortunately unlike Malone. he
lost his reward. And then to be beaten
by negro, man who had been slave.
When the independents and Arthur
men set out to punish the regegade they
did it in such way as to make him feel
fully the indignity put upon him.
