of the political interests involved in
this question of high-license, its so
luton will probably be determined
in caucuses. The sentiment of the
Republican members, who have
twenty-nine majority on joint ballot,
is strongly in favor of high-license,
and there is but little doubt that
high license will be incorporated in
the statute books in time for enforce
ment by local authorities next spring.
Some favor is shown toward the
proposition that there be some sys-
TEN devised whereby the practice
of compounding liquors shall be
stopped. - Ml,oduk-ee Sentinel.

The Business Outlook.

Reports from the east and from
various directions give evidence of
an improved feeling in business and
industrial circles of all kinds. The
iron and steel industries are reviving;
idle mills and foundries are starting
up, and production has recommenc-
ed. The source Of the demand for
iron and steel products is not in any
particular department OF consump.
tion, as railroad building has not
again begun extensively in any new
section of the country. 1t is prob
able that old stocks of iron and steel
have been partially or generally
worked off, and that the new demand
is to replace articles for sale.
The demand for money has been
good everywhere, but principally
for use in speculation on grain
prices, which have recently shown
great activity. The rise in wheat is
regarded as permanent; or, at least,
it is not believed there will be new
break TO the bottom prices of q few
weeks ago.
Prices Of labor are low, and man
ufacturies which have been recently
put again in operation have been re-
vived on lower scales Of wages. But
this is better than idleness, and will
lead to better prices and better times.
The dry-goods trade is fairly
strong, prices being firmly held with
of increased activity.
The failures for tho week were
more numerous than for any cores
week in riany years, but
more than four-ifths OF the dealers
who "went under" were on the
scale. The large failures
were but very few
All things considered, the pros
poets for business in the immediate
future and for the year, if not bright
are decidedly improved and encour-

Horrible .Patricide.

One of the most horrible crimes
in the history of Iowa county was
committed in the Blue Mounds Val
ley, town of Arena, on Tuesday
evening. Conrad Remley, a peace.
able, inoffensiye citizen, was cruelty
murdered in his bed by his son
Charles, young man of 2l years.
The story of this awful deed, rs
told by young Remley and his moth.
er, is that Mr.. Remley had retired
early and that about half past seven,
as Mrs II. entered his room to re-
tire, she found Remley sitting up in
bed with a pistol in his hand which
his eldest son, Joseph, had recently
brought with him from Dakota, and
he said to her "You and the rest of
them will soon see hell" She
screamed and called to the boys -
their two sons, Charles and Frank
being in the adjoining room--to
come quick as "Eather is going to
kill us" and Charles grabbed up a
gambrel which was in the house and
struck his father twice over the
head with it, killing him on the spot.
The reason assigned by the young
man for striking the second blow
was that he did not wish to see his
father suffer.
After the murder, Charles went to
some of the neighbors and told
them he had killed his father and
asked them to come over, which
they did, and upon their advice the
young man went to Justice John M.
Wilson aud gave himself up.
A jury was empaneled before
Justice Wilson on Wednesday, and
an inquest held, at which it was de-
veloped that there were more than
two wounds on Mr. Reinley's head,
and in the opinion of DR.. Brown, of
MazoManie, who made an examina-
ton, all the wounds could not have
been inflicted by the gambrel which
the boy and his mother testified was
the only weapon used The jury
found that deceased came to his
death by the hand of his son,
Charles, and the young man was
brought to Dodgeville on Thursday,
by Justice Wilson, and lodged in
jail.
The members of the family all
testified at the inquest that there
had been no quarrel with their faith
er that day and that there was no
liquor in the house. But Mrs. Rem
ley said that Remley had threatened
to kill her on last Sunday, and had
also made such threats previous to
that day - Chronicle.

The LegisIatu ture and the License
Pro bIenl.

This question of oyershadowihg
importance will require much care
full consideration from our law
makers--that of requiring higher
minimum license for the sale at re-
tail of intoxicating liquors. While
there is but little doubt that the fig
ure will be increased from S75 to at
least $3.50, and perhaps TO $500,
there are issues of political char
acter involved which will precipi-
tate an interesting contest. The
Prohibitionists, with their newly
found allies, the Democrats, and
reinforced by the saloonkeepers'
contingent, will oppose the increase.
The former object to any occasion
to the liquor interest, and demand
prohibition or nothing; the latter
have a selfish interest in keeping
the license what it now is, and bring
forward the specious plea that it
would crush out a large number of
poor but respectable saloonkeepers
in small villages and thereby create
a monopoly for the rich dealers. This
would make the rich richer, and the
poor poorer, and be very bad all
round Nevertheless the minimum
license now fixed by law will be
trebled, and the poor saloonkeepers
had better look for other employ
ment or to apply for offices under
the new administration. There will
probably he a dozen high license
bills introduced in either house as
soon as the speaker or president
calls that order Of business. The
so-called "IIarper law" in Illinois
appears to be generally favored, and
its principal features, modified to
suit the needs of this state, will
probably be adopted On sooo1att

Mr., w. II. THOMAS, who for a

for the civil service reformers, who
regard it as a very great impro.
priety to remove man from office
on political considerations. Mr..
Thomas is a peer TO any man In

cupied a subordinate position in

administered by the Republicans,
we hope he will not find it a difficult
matter to provide place for Mr..

ticle of four inches in length and
fleeced the business men to the tune

weak human nature is at times, that
citizens of a place will "give down"
to every travelling tramp that comes
along, no matter in what line of bus
mess or traffic. Not week passes
but the local paper at Whitewater
willingly does some of the same
parties a greater favor than did this
wandering Jew, that too, without a
cent of compensation.
