THE Vosseiche Zeitung condemns the

at the head of 100000 men, is fighting

Already tho power of several rulers has

operations will have the effect of open

missionaries, and that American COM

the present be operated less strictly

WISCONSIN POLITICS.

A Ripping old Fight Among Repub-
Iicans on the Tapis.
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 31.-A gentle-
man who has been prominently iden-
tilted with the politics of the state for
a number of years, said this evening
that Senator Sawyer had stated that
he desired to succeed himself in the
United States senate, and, as a conse
quence, some new elements will enter
into the next state campaign. 1t is
believed that Gov. Rusk will wish to
retire from public life, and will not
again be candidate, in which case
Gen. Fred Winckler of this city would
be brought out by the republicans of
the state. Should Gov. Rusk desire a
denomination, it is the intention to
have ex Postmaster H. G. Payne, of
Milwaukee, placed on the ticket as a
candidate for state treasurer, and it is
not improbable that, even III the case
of Gen. Winckler being nominated
for the head of the ticket, Payne will
be put on.

THE taking OF the census of old
soldiers has exposed two persons, one
at Ripon and one at R1cine, who were
members OF G. A r. posts and had
not been in the army. 1t is likely that
the writing up the records of the war
and the publication Of lists Of soldiers
will unearth more of this class of
heroes 1t is no discredit 10 man
not to have been in the army, and
those who remember well the years
from 1861 to 1865 know that substan-
TALLY all those VINO could go were in
the army, and tens OF thousands who,
il did not then seem ought to go, did
20 The fact was that the whole
people, men women and children,
with only now and then an ex
ception, were in one capacity or
another in the service Of the govern
ment to crush It's would be destroyers.
The credit OF putting down the rebel
lion and saving the Union is due to
the generation living in the northern
states at that time-to the loyal men
and women OF 1861 1865 Probably
il the history OF these G. A Il heroeH
who were not in the army at all could
be ascertained, they belong TO the ex
ceptions Of that time, that neither
went in the army nor gave any ser
vice TO the country rs citiz9ns-they
shirked all the duties that citizens
owe their government and now seek
to enroll themselves among the most
honored.

where soldier has been marked on
the rolls and reported as a deserter,
and it appears that within a reason
able time thereafter and while the war
was still progressing and the army
engaged in active hostilities against
the enemy he voluntarily returned to
his company and regiment and
was Internationally received into the
service. or was received on conditions
which have been fulfilled not inyolv-
ing the forfeiture of pay or allowances,
and he subsequently rendered faiths
ful and acceptable military services,
and was honorably discharged, it will
be held that the presumption that he
was a deserter which the entry upon
the military records and rolls might
create, will be deemed to be conclu
sively rebutted and overthrown. In
such cases the soldier is to be treated
as absent without leave.
The practice of the second comp
troller's office in adjusting pay and
allowances due discharged soldiers
will hereafter conform to the above
rules.

A 0ne1ided Game.
whitehall Review

An amusing story is told OF an
American millionaire who recently
honored London with visit. As he
was walking down ore Of the busiest
of our streets one morning, his eye
was attracted by an organ grinder
who was solemnly and industriously
playing at the corner of a street. The
top OF the organ was covered with
smooth green cloth that at once APP
pealed to the intellect of the transat>
lantic Croesus. For him the green
cloth suggested only one thought and
that thought was gambling lie fan

peripatetic roulette player, and he
could not resist the temptation Of tax.
ing a turn. So he stopped opposite
the musical Italian and tossed gold
coin cheerily on the green surface Of
the hurdy gurdy. The astonished
foreigner stopped playing, grasped
the coin, pocketed il removed his hat
grunted out some voluble Tuscan
thanks, and resumed his music. Lost
that time the millionaire murmured
to himself, and produced another
coin. He tossed it again upon the
board, from which it was again no
less promptly and no less gratefully
removed by the delighted musician.
The millionaire shook his head. "Ah,
luck's against nae, he remarked, as
he sent third gold coin to CLEAN for
moment upon the green surface be-
fore it rapidly disappeared in the Ital-
ian's pocket. Another and another
coin went in the same way without
wearing out the patience of the Am
erican. But at last, when some six
sovereigns had transferred themselves
from his keeping TO that Of the organ
