Five years ago, when Col. Jerry NJ
Rusk was the republican candidate for
governor for the first time. the nomina-
ton was weak one and he ran far
behind the ticket, but his party was
then strong in the state and was able
to pull him through Notwithstanding
his unpopularity and well-known I'M
fitness for the position. Now, however
the tables are turned and the entire
republican ticket and party are hang
ing onto the governors cOat-tails in the
hope that he will be able to pull them
through on the fraudulent riot" issue.

Nor Will it be denied that the schol-

great thinkers Of the present day are
leading in the direction of what is
called free trade"
The above words were used by James
A. Garfield in the course of a debate
in the forty-tirst congress. 1t would
be well if some of our republican con-
temporaries should commit them TO
memory, and ponder over them in
their mind whenever they feel called
upon TO comment upon the speech OF
some windy campaign orator who goes
about the country advocating the per
petuation in free and enlightened
America of the oppressive and narrow
minded system of spoilation, which
is Falsely called protection" They
might thereby often be saved the dis

Another Burchard Speaks Ills Mind.


The growl Of the displaced republi-
can office holder in Brooklyn did not
avail him much. His anger at being
succeeded by IAN IriShman and a
Catholic" who cannot speak the Ian
guage of our country" was not likely
to have much effect on a democratic
president. BY the way, our foreign
born voters ought to understand how
fully this fellow represents the senti,
ments of very large portion of the
republican party, Ii naturally received
into its ranks the great body of the
know-nothingS. and these bigotS have
trained their children in the bitter hat
red of foreigners and Catholics thai
characterized the vicious order to which
they belonged. Yet this is the part,
| that Alexander sullivan and a few
other recreant IriSh-Americans have
sought to induce their fellow citizens
of Irish birth to join.

Our Candidate for Congress.


Every day we hear words of praise
for our candidate for congress, Hugh
J. Gallagher. He is one of our best
and truest citizens. able. bright and
gentle; fearless for the right and a
friend of the people rather than of cor
porate monopolie. Already the repub-
lican majority of this district are quak-
ing and trembling before the coming
of Fa Fapette county's favorite son.

writingn in on the wall and the gronud

The Prairie du Chem Courier.
Hugh ]. Gallagher, of La Fayette
Co, the Democratic candidate for con-
gress in the old third district. is man
in everyway worthy of public conf
dence, and an honor to his party. We
hope he may be elected, and if .Old
Crawford" had not beer geremandered
out Of that district, it would give Hugh
J. Gallagher rousing majority.
The Southwestern Local.
The G. O. p is badly split up in this
congressional district. Grant. Green
and Iowa counties are suffering with
a divided house: disappointed and
rheumatic politicians are in the mi
nOrity party, just as they invested the

years fight for power The prohibit
tiOnists are cutting a wide swarth and
the representative men of the q. o. r.
as Hon. p. \. orion said fear not the
length Of their scythe." In looking
over the field we believe that Mr.. Gal
lagher will be elected to congress,
everything now looks favorable to that
most welcome and happy result. Let
the democrats of old La Fayette and
especially those of the western assem-
bly, district give Hugh J. Gallagher
the rouSing majority that his worth
and mind deserves.
