A Hapny Family.

There is good deal of fault-finding
among the managers of the Democratic
campaign, at the extortionate demands
of the hummer element of the party
and the Prohibitionists. The party is
in favor of reduction of wages of the
laboring classes, and the managers
think that in the interests of the party,
and to be consistent, the professional
repeaters ought to stand slight reduc-
ton of the wages heretofore paid them
for their services. But instead of sub
hitting to reduction they and the
managers of the st. John Prohibition
campaign have been so extortionate in
their demands upon the Democratic
campaign fund that the National and
State Democratic committees are en-
barrassed for money to carry on the
campaign; and only the most strenuous
appeals to Democratic saloon-keepers
and the Brewers Associations enable
them to keep what they deem the re-
quisite number of Democratic and Pro-
hibition speakers in the field. The
strength of the Prohibition party is so
insignificant, as shown by the recent
elections in Maine and Ohio, that it is
now urged by many of the Democratic
leaders, that they have foolishly allowed
| themselves to be made the victims of q
little confidence game by the managers
of the so-called Prohibition party, who
are lining their pockets and rendering
the Democratic party no service COM
mensurate with the pay they are re-
ceiving The Prohibitionists they say
will hereafter have TO put. forth extra
exertions or their supplies from the
Democratic campaign fund will be cut
| of, and the Democratic party will play
the hand out alone. The Ohio cam
paign nearly swamped them.

COMardlY Murder.

f. A. Burton, President Of the Blaine
and Logan Club of La Crosse, while
drilling company of Plumed Knights
in that city, last Thursday evening, was
shot dead by ruflian known as
"Scotty." who came up behind him
from the crowd on the sidewalk and
first shot him in the back. As Mr..
Burton fell to the pavement the cow
ardly wretch fired six more shots. all of
which took effect in his dying victims
body. Mr.. Burton was a broker and
commission merchant, and one of the
best known and most popular business
men in the Northwest. He leaves an
estimable wife and three children. The
murderer was seized and hurried to the
Jail, which was soon surrounded by the
Plumed Knights and their friends. The
doors were battered down and when
the crowd dispersed, the cowarlly muir
eler's lifeless body was dangling from
ference in society in Wisconsin and
Mississippi. In the latter state Scotty's
"chiyalrous' deed would have made
him the lion of the day. A county
mass meeting would have been called
to pass resolutions endorsing his action,
and warning his victims friends to
seek redress mt the peril of their lives;
and then the murderer would have been
elected sheriff OF the county, or sent as
n Democratic representative to Con-
gtess. Like the Younger and James
boys, when they made their raid in
Minnesota, Scotty got up too far North,
where the people can't appreciate what
in the South is ''chivalrous conduct. !"

Old party ties and old party associa-
tons are indeed strong when loyal and
brave Democrats who went to the war
to fight Democratic traitors and crush
a Democratic rebellion, overlooking or
willing to forget the reasonable record
made by the Democratic party during
the war; party that during the four
years the great struggle lasted, never
once, in either town, county, state, or
National convention, passed one single
resolution expressive of sympathy for
them or the cause for which they were
fighting still cling to and vote
with that party. When they can vote
for the traitor Tom Hendricks, who
was as disloyal to his country during
the war, rs was jefferson Davis or Bob
Tombs; and who in a recent speech
made this boast: Il thank God that |
nccer went to the war; that | nerer
asked man to go 10 the war. and
that | neuer paid dollar for the prose
culion of the war; The number of
old Union soldiers who will not resent
the insult offered them by the Demo
cratic party in placing this vile traitor
in nomination for the second office in
the gift of the people, with a possibility
of succeeding to the presidency of a re-
public which he did his utmost to des-
troy, is very small. But the wonder is
that one old Union soldier can be found
who will not resent the outrageous in
suit.

Total. ...,........

Rev. f. F. Cleveland, formerly of
Freeport, Illinois, and now of Rockford,
is Presiding Elder of the Freeport Cir
cut of the Nj. f. Church. He is a cousin
of Grover Cleveland, and has hereto
fore been Republican, but the pros
pect of Cleveland family greatness was
too much for him, and he has gone over
to the Democrats. The Democratic
papers have recently been publishing
an interview with the Elder, in which
he takes strong grounds for his cousin,
and states that he had recently heard
from Gen. Grant, on whose staff he
claims to have served during the wsr,
and that Gen. Grant expressed himself
as being opposed to the election of
Blaine. The purported interview was
sent to Gen. Grant by Capt. A. V. Rich
ards, of Dubuque, formerly editor of
the Freeport Journal; and in his reply
Gen. Grant sets down upon the Elder
and his statements, in this style:

While the Democrats are discussing
Mr. Blaine's character, why do they not
charge or attempt TO charge him with
having beaten or having attempted to
beat the Government or some corpora
ton or individual out of money during
his long and successful public career as
business man and legislator? The
Mulligan Letters have only strengthened
the faith Of the great reading public in
Dir. Blaine's incorruptible integrity;
and his enemies cannot point to blot

The Democratic press and Demo-
cratic politicians are now defending
Grover Cleveland's private character
which has been so thoroughly exposed,
by attempting to prove that George
Washington was more immoral than
he is. If they want to institute a COM
parison between Cleveland and some
other great man, to show that the
former is no worse in moral sense
than some others, they should not drag
the Nations honored dead out of their
graves. but should take some living ex-
ample. For instance, they might have
taken Beecher, and the people would
not have objected even had they sue
ceeded in making it appear that Cleve-
land is not a whit worse than he is. and
that in morals as well as politics they
are,
Two souls with but single thought,
Two hearts that beat as one.

to anything to accomplish the defeat of

Governor Rusk.

We hope that none of our readers
will fail to carefully read the scrap of
history in this issue of THE HERALD,
relating to the disturbances in the ex-
treme northern part of this state two
years ago last January, occasioned by
the attempt of a great Railroad cor
poration to beat the laborers on the
Air Line Railroad out of their earnings.
A careful perusal of the history of that
disturbance will show the difference be-
tween "the laboring mans friend, ''who
poses upon the stump in q political
campaign, asking for votes; and real
friend, who coming from the ranks of
the laboring classes himself, stands
nobly by them, and uses the great power
of his office as executive Of the state, to
protect them in their rights, when
rich and powerful Railroad corporation
would beat them out of their earn
ings, and then have them treated as
rioters. Governor Rusk, by his con-
duct on that occasion, endeared him.
self to thousands of laboring men, a
large proportion OF whom are Demo-
Gratis, and every one of whom would
walk hundred miles To- cast vote for
'Old jerry" as they like to call him.
Wisconsin never had more popular
Governor, and never had a trrer or
more honest one. There is not Demo-
crat in the State who could, as the say
ing is, ''beat one side of him" Every
branch of the State government under
his administration has been faithfully
and economically administered; and in
the election in November the Republi-
can State ticket, headed by his name,
will receive the hearty endorsement of
the people, who are not laundering after
Democratic Governors since they ex-
perimented with Bill Taylor.
