recover the sum OF $4,000 alleged
to be due on a contract, is a. revelac

having paid to Wilson the enormous

within a period OF seven years in vari-
Gus amounts ranging from $1OO to
$4,000 each, but driven to despera-
tior, resisted the payment OF the large

r. 9. SPENCER of Milwaukee, caused
quite sensation in the Normal School
at Oshkosh by inveighing against the
practice there Of beginning school work
by religious exercises. He is one Of the
Board of Visitors and the remarks were
made to the school and in presence OF
the Faculty. He expressed regret at
being compelled to critioise anything
which President Albee might see proper
to do in connection with the school as he
was man entitled to the very highest
respect for the educational work he had
done and the influence for good he sxer-
cised throughout the state. Mr.. Spencer
is right in principle though the religious
exercises criticised are the least objec-
tionable conducted in any public institu-
ton. Mr.. Albee is too broad and too
liberal man to give offense to the most
sensitive on religious matters, and is
sctuated solely by good motives. There
is nothing sectarian in the form or m after
of what he does, and it is conviction, not
senselsss adherence &c form as is the
case generally where there is opening by
prayer. Still Mr.. Spencsr's remarks will
do good. Not every man has Mr.. Albee's
good sense in conducting an exercise of
this kind, and attention should be called
to the matter. Some years ago . presi-

SOME Of the political slate makers at
Madison in making up the democrats
state ticket for the coming election, assign
the position of state superintendent to
the editor of The Pilot. These forecasts
are published in the Milwaukee papers.
This is very harmless amusement, but
these ticket makers may come little
nearer the truth in predicting who the
candidate for state superintendent will
be by knowing that "John Nagle of Man
itowoc" would neither accept the nomi-
nation or certificate of election for that
office, and he likewise feels very certain
he will never have the opportunity to
decline either. The position is a very
important one and its duties have init
mate relation to the dearest interests q
people should cherish. Both nationality
and geographical distribution in this
matter should give way to considerations
of experience, ability and fitness. The
Pilot favors the best man for this posi-
ton without regard to politics or any
question of political expediencv.
