SUPPORTING THE ADMINISTRA-
TION.

The New York Herald's Washington
correspondent says that it is being whis-
pered around Washington that the Presi-
dent is anxious to know how many sup
porters the Administration is going to
have. The Administration will have Just
as many supporters as there are friends
of good and honest government in Con-
gress Government is not an affair of
poetry or idealsm, but an administration
OF public affairs. The administration Of
these affairs requires the employment of
many hands, and the endeavor of Mr..
Cleveland il TO get the most competent
hands. 1t is an endeavor that ought TO
succeed, and it is one in which the Presi-
dent should be seconded by all who
think that good and honest government
is the first demand of the people, and
that to obtain 1t parties are founded. This
idea has not always had sway, but it is
gaining it, and it is this fact that makes
many discontented and causes them to
complain. The triumph of this idea
that party is founded for the purpose Of
securing good and honest government
means death to the idea that government
is contest for office, and that office
means spoils. 1t has meant that alto
gether too much, but that is no reason
why it should any longer. Mr.. Cleveland
has pledged himself to combat this idea,
and he is doing it wonderfully we'll. 1t
is not to be expected that the spoilsmen
will support him in his fight, but the
detection in the Democratic ranks is not
nearly so great rs some would make out.
The men who are chiefly desirous of Mr..
Cleveland's failure in his fight for
reform are the Republicans, for
they well know that the triumph Of
his reform policy means death to their
party. Occasionally a complaint is heard
from some one in the Democratic party
about civilservice reform, and such COM
plants are sure to be magnified into uni
versal discomfort by the Republican
press. Mr.. Cleveland was chosen by the
Democratic party as their standard-bearei
and he carried their standard to victory.
They chose him because he was pre-em-
inently a reform man, and his record as
Governor OF New York proved him to be
q thorough-going reformer in Office rs vel
as out. This was the reason for theil
choice of Mr.. Cleveland, and the party i:
not going to desert him now that they
have elected him President. There need
be no anxiety as to whether or not Mr.
Cleveland will have supporters. On the
supposition, and which is the neares
supposition, that Mr.. Cleveland's party
will not support him because Of his reform
policy, still it is better for the whole
country that he do not have that support
than that he should abandon the princi
plesof reform which he has started out tC
make triumphant and dominant. Better
to stand alone in the path OF duty than tt
follow the crowd through the fields o
error

FAR FETCHED.

The Tribune OF yesterday contained an
article in which an attempt was made to
put the DEMOCRAT in wrong position.
The Tribune's reasons for this are too well
known to require setting them forth. Its
article ended with this:
We brand the statement that Gentle
jury has ever yet in Utah convicted any
Mormon of crime, without the most ample
evidence, as n causeless and most unwar-
ranted falsehood and insult, and one partic-
ularly freighted with mischief at this time.
This is a pretty broad assertion even
for the Tribune to make, and is little
far fetched when compared with what the
DEMOCRAT said. What the DEMOCRAT
did say was this:
leading lawyer came very near putting
the situation in Utah aS it is when he re-
marked few days ago: "a Mormon Jury
won't convict, no matter how much nor what
the weight of the evidence is; and Gentle
Jury will convict whether there is any evil
dence or not"
Does it justify what the Tribune at
tempts to make us say? The DEMOCRAT
has never said nor intended to say that
Mormons have been convicted by Gen.
tiles without evidence, and this the Tri-
bune we'll knows. We merely used the
remark OF the attorney referred to to
illustrate the feeling which exists in Utah
between Mormons and nom Mormons,
and it illustrates it very well, too. The
man, be he Mormon or Cen
tile, who took the remark literally,
was evidently hunting for something
to take umbrage at, and seems to have
found it. We wish him u full enjoyment
OF it. Perhaps the Tribune thinks there
is no prejudice in Utah between tie
Mormons and Gentiles, but whether or
not it thinks SO, there is. The Tribune
seems to have taken such mortal offense
at our illustration that we will give it an
other. On New Years day gentleman
OF this city said TO us that our illustration
was very near right, and he supplemented
this remark by saying that if he We're
summoned as juror in polygamy or
unlawful cohabitation case, he would ask
the Court to excuse him because in any
such case he did not believe he
could serve as an impartial Juror.
The gentleman to whom we now refer
is not Democrat nor Mormon, but this
same gentleman was United States
officer In Utah a few years ago.
In conclusion we desire 10 call the at

The Tribune OF yesterday had very
labored article on the DEMOCRAT, and the
consequence is that the editor OF the Tri.
bune is suffering from nervous prostra-
tion. This is shown in another article
where it is said that Mr.. Gladstone has
an article in the December Century on
"The Dawn OF Civilization" Mr.. Glad.
stone had an article in the Nineteenth
Century for November on "The Dawn OF
Civilization" but the Nineteenth Century
is an English review, while the Century
is an American magazine. We would
suggest a mild diet for the Tribune ed
itor, and a rest-sayfor thousand years.

MANY Democrats, especially OF the
genus Blaine, doubt the wisdom of re-
moving some of the Federal officials in
Utah. These same Democrats doubted
the wisdom OF electing Mr.. Cleveland.
There's nothing like wisdom, especially
official wisdom.

it is working big. Pick out the

see it packed yourself. Could any
thing be better than that!
We have also given up buying
southern filled kegs of syrup for
the reason that goods come short

We commenced this Monday last,
also and people appreciate it. We
show you the goods and tell you
how many gallons you are to get

TIE election in this state is a crushing
defeat to the democratic party. Rusk's
plurality will exceed $4,000. The state
ticket seems TO have suffered much
more than the Legislative ticket. As on
joint ballot the republicans have only 81
majority, II in the senate and IA in the
assembly. Hudd is the only democratic
congressman elected from this state
Judge Doolittle cams within 500 votes
of defeating Caswell in the First. Guen-
theirs majority over Delaney will reach
fully 1000. He carried Dodge county
by 500 and got large majorities in every
county in the district, Fond du Lac Civ
ing him LOO. The labor party swept
everything in the city of Milwaukee,
burying both parties. All the county
labor ticket was elected and the only
thing the old parties saved was a scatter
ing few assemblymen. The labor candi-
date for governor received vote of over
II, 200 in that city alone. The demo-
cratic ticket has been cleaned out in
Dodge county, the peoples ticket being
elected by 1,500 majority. Dodge sends
a republican senator. Brown county
sends solid republican delegation to
the legislature. Manitowoc county seems
to be the only place not wrecked.

AN express robbery somewhat after
the style of the James gang was perpe-
trated in Missouri lately. A man pre-
sented letter from the route agent to
the express messenger stating that the
bearer was to be put on as assistant and
requesting that he be taught the business.
Soon the express messenger found re-
volver pointing at his head and his as
sistant took $4,000 from the safe and
skinned. For time it was believed the
messenger was a party to the robbery
but now it is thought the robbery was
a bona tide affair. The robber is said to
be the last of the James gang.

GREAT BANKRUPT SALE.

We recently purchased at Bankrupt
Sale $4,000 worth of Stoves at SOC. on the
dollar, and will sell them at about half
their value. This is complete stock of
Stoves in itself-consisting principally
of Cook Stoves; but also nice variety
of Coal Heaters and Wood Heaters.
These are not Cheap or Old goods. but
First Class Stoves, line of which we
have always kept in stock. We give
a regular Written Guarantee with each
of these stoves. This is certainly the
greatest bargain ever offered in Manito-
voc. Those wishing to buy should
come soon, for a stock of this kind can
not last very long. This is no adver-
Using scheme, but just what we claim it
to be. BECKER & TEITGEN.

The average reporter uses most excel
lent discrimination in transmitting tele-
graph news. For instance when on
Tuesday night the election returns were
being sent in, the giving the information
that the Second congressional district
"has been strong democratic one and
represented by General Bragg" is mat
ter of so much moment that it is diff
cult to see how people could survive
without receiving it. This information
was held back to the very last, and then
doused upon the people when they were
greedy for figures.

NEW ANECDOTES OF JACKSON.

TWO OR THREE FRESH STORIES ABOUT OLD
HICKORY
speaking of noted men," said the
Rev. DIR. Eddy, the other day, Il can
give you two or three stories of Gen.
Jackson which l will personally vouch
for as true and which [ believe have
never been put in print"
Under one of the Adamses the Rev.
Mr.. Lane was appointed keeper of the
lighthouse at Portland, Chautauqua
County, n. Y, and expected to hold
the position for life, but to his sur
prise, shortly after Gen. Jackson's
Inauguration received notice that he
had been removed and his successor
appointed. He wasted no time, and
"hitching up" his old horse to still
older wagon, started on a journey to
Washington. He was a simple old
man, and had no idea that the Presi-
dent Of the United States was any
better than any other man, so when
he arrived at Washington he drove to
the White House, tied his horse, and
asked to see the President. He was
man after Jackson's heart, and the
General entertained him as a guest at
the White House and saw that the
old horse had the best these was to be
had in the Presidential stables, and
when he left he carried in his pocket
papers which retained him as keeper
of the Portland light until he died.
As an instance of Gen. Jackson's
great iberality the following may be
given: He was living in Tennessee,
when the Rev. John Schormerhorn of
Utica visited his part of the country
on missionary tour riding a horse,
as was the custom While in the
vicinity of "The Hermitage" Gen.
Jackson's home, Mr.. Schormerhorn's
horse died, and the poor missionary
knew not which way to turn. Gen.
Jackson loaned him horses whenever
he required them, but when the poor
man had completed his missionary
work and knew not how to return to
his home, the old General, taking him
to the stable asked him his opinion of
the various horses there. The humble
missionary conscientiously selected
the horse which he considered the
best, and Gen. Jackson said, Take
him-Tm glad he suits you"
The third anecdote related by DIR.
Eddy illustrates very clearly Gen
Jackson's reverence for religious
belief, though it is well known he was
not religionist in the strict sense of
the word, and it is also well known
that his profanity was notorious.
Soon after Jackson's return from
his victory of Jan. s, 1915, at New |
Orleans, he was at Nashville, Tenn.
and with his full staff attended ser |
vice at one of the leading churches. |
The clergyman, who, not expecting
Gen. Jackson as one of his auditors.
had prepared sermon On profane
swearing, scarcely knew what to do.
but finally decided to preach it, come
what would. Gen jackson was a
attentive listener, and as
official position in those days was
much more respected than now, the
poor clergyman was in state of fear
Jul anxiety lest his frank utterances
might lead to a loss of his charge.
his surprise, therefore, when
Monday Maj. Donaldson of Jackson's
staff called upon him and said thati
zen. Jackson, as mark of his ap-
probation of his able discourse, re-
,uested him to accept the best suit of
,lotbes that the best tailor in Nash
lille could make for him.-Detroit

The temporary excitement caused by

The temporary excitement caused by
the election has now come to an end and
other matters than politics will claim at
tention. 1t is very fortunate that the
demoralizing thing called election"
occurs only once in two years and the
candidates who have had their first
experience this year will no doubt
willingly bear evidence to the wisdom
of the counsel given by The Pilot some
weeks ago: Don't be a candidate for
political Office if you can make living
in any other way. The pithy advice
given by sarcastic journal to people
contemplating marriage: "Don't," has
far more relevancy when referring to
political aspirations. 'tDont," boys for
your own sake and that of the dear peo-
pie look for Office Take the counsel
before experience teaches you its wisdom.
Experience is not gentle teacher and
enforces its preceipts in most ungentle
fashion. Don't.

A MISPLACED switch at place called
Rio in this state on the Milwaukee & st.
Paul road, caused the destruction of
limited express train while running at
the rate of 40 miles an hour, on Thurs
day night of last week. The switch is
near curve and the engineer was unable
to see the open switch until it was too
late. He instantly put on the air brakes
and saying good by, Ben" to his fire.
man he wenS with his engine off the
track. The engine went to pieces, but
the engineer ard fireman miraculously
escaped death. The day coach which
which contained number of passengers
was badly wrecked and instantly caught
fire. All the passengers with the excep-
ton of few, were burned to death, as
they were unable to escape. 1t is be-
lieved that seventeen persons lost their
lives, though it is difficult to determine
the exact number.
The conductor of the freight train,
through whose fault the switch was left
open, fled for the woods after the acct
dent occurred. He returned later and
it was thought would become maniac.
1t is said to be the worst railroad acct
dent in the north west.
