A NORWEGIAN. paper published in
Chicago, urges the Norwegian Republic
ans of this state to vote for John
A. johnson, the Democratic candi-
date for state treasurer. in opposition to
Col. Harshaw, the one-armed soldier,
who is the Republican candidate. One
of its arguments is as follows, HE
{ Johpson) is not a Democrat. He is an
independent Republican and stands by
Republican principles as faithfully as any
one. It was only after re-
peated and earnest requests that he was
induced to allow his name to be placed
on this ticket. He is no more Democrat
than before" Mr.. johnson may not be-
lieve in any of the destructive principles,
if it has such, of the Democratic party,
but as a candidate on the Democratic
ticket he must expect to be treated as a
Democrat. Of course, he was only
nonina ted as bait for Norwegian votes,
and the intelligent Norwegian voters owe
it to themselves to show that they cannot
be caught by such devices. Mil,oaukee

ENDORSEMENT OF HIGH LICENSE.
alternative of high license, if not carried
too far, has much to commend it. The
profits of liquor selling are so great that
dealers can afford to pay well for their
privileges, especially as their stock
escapes the local taxation which other
merchants pay. There is justice. likewise,
in compelling the traffic to pay larger
proportion of the expenses of pauperism

THE CONGRESSIONAL CON-
VENTION.

The Eikhorn convention, after nearly
a weeks deliberations, finally concluded
its labors at noon last Wednesday and
placed in nomination Hon. L. B. Caswell
for another term in congress from this
district. From first to last the proceed
iDgs of the convention were of the most
harmonious and pleasant character.
Hon. Fl. A. Cooper, of Racine, and Hon.
T. D. Weeks, of Whitewater, were the
opposing candidates, and the frienos Of
each stood by them with unfinching
fidelity and zeal. Mr.. Caswell had the
united support of Jefferson and Rock and
for 1873 ballots received the nineteen votes
of those two counties. Mr.. Cooper's
eleven supporters were equally steadfast,
as were Mr.. Weeks nine. which caused
a deadlock lasting several days. A posi-

lows: l.. B. Caswell twenty seven, James
Cavenaugh six, N. M. Littlejohn three,
H. A. Cooper one, blank two. The
nomination of Mr., Caswell was then
made unanimous, and the convention adj
iourned in the best ofspirits, after having
listened to brief and appropriate addresses
from Messrs. Caswell and Cooper.
To the Republicans of Jefferson county
this result is especially gratifying, and
they are not unmindful of the very great
honor thus conferred upon them and their
distinguished representative by the con-
xention. Nor is this feeling of satisfaction
confined to the Republicans, for Mr..

ssThe Greenville Idea"

There is good deal Of newspaper
comment upon which is led the
"Grenville idea in politics This
idea is that representation in the
Democratic State Convention should
be apportioned among the several
counties according to the democratic
vote in the several counties at the pre-
ceding election. Our position has al
ways been: that the apportionment
should be made upon the basis of the
enrolled strength Of the Democratic
voters In the several counties It Is
now based upo, ,pulation irrespect-
i've of party afh4- :, ons. This is unfair,
unreasonable and illogical. The plan
is not thought of when it comes down
to counties.
In the first place the representation
in the Legislature is unequal and IN
just as can easily be seen from the last
census. Charleston has by far too
many members and will continue to
have until the Constitution is obsery-
ed III the matter of a new enumera-
tion. AS long as the present rule is
followed Charleston viii be able to
hold this unequal power both in the
Legislature and in conventions. The
same may be said of other counties,
most of them in the lower part Of the
State. In practical effect the situation
is as obnoxious in the olden times
when We were dominated by the SPar-
ish system" and strange to say we find
few in the up-country who are
luke warm in their opposition to this
injustice. We would not take the
least advantage OF any section of the
State but only insist upon fair play.
Nc true patriot can afford to object to
this We are all in the same boat and
why should one section desire an ad-
vantage over another?
1t has been insinuated that this
plan must be kept up or We may sose
the lower counties from the democra-
cy but this is an entire mistake. The
people of that section are too patriotic
and know too we'll the advantages of
Democratic supremacy to turn their
backs on the party. It isan ungener-
Gus imputation.
While we think representation
should be. based upon the enrolled
democratic strength, it is we'll to un-
derstand the changes that would be
made if the 'Greenville idea" prevail
ed. This can be seen at a glance from
the following tabular statement:
