THE Sentinel correspondent in Madi-
son is jewel in the way of gathering
news. He finds that the cry of 'sany-
thing to beat Rusk" is to be discontinued
and the third term cry substituted, and
that this plan has been submitted by the
democrats. The correspondent fits the
paper. The republican papers of the
state seem to have resolved TO discard
common sense and as result the work
done by them as preliminary to the cam
paign is laughable. Here is their creed:
l. Whoever opposes Rusk is an auar-
chist.
2. Rusk is the greatest man on whom
the sun ever shone.
3. 1t is fair to take for granted the
democratic party will do anything that's
bad

HANS. b. WARNER ex.Secretary of
state will be a candidate for the position
of lieut.. governor. A correspondent of
The Inter Ocean in noting the fact says
the "Norwegians have been clamoring
for place" There is no nationality in
this country which demands less in the
way of politics. They never push their
claims as distinct nationality and per-
haps the only instance on record of a
Norwegian demanding Office on nation
ality, is the screed lately published by
Norwegian paper in Minnesota. The
politicians anxious to hold the Norwegian
vote in the republican party are the per
sons who parcel the officers out to the
natiopalities.

A VERY able paper appears in an Eng
lish Journal on social life in the United
States. The writer claims that these
traits of character for which the middle
class American is noted abroad are en-
grated German characteristics. That
the United States are being more rapidly
Germanized than the people here resid-
ing think. The reason why the country
is gravitating toward German ideas is
said to be the persistency and strength
of the German character. They pre-
serve their language, their habits, their
societies and institutions and the Amer
lean studies their tastes so as to minister
to them for consideration.

The number of available candidates
for the democratic nomination for state
superintendent is such that good selec-
ton can be made. President Parker
will have nothing to do with the position.
g. T. Viebahn of Watertown would
likely accept the nomination if it were
rendered him. There is a movement
among some of the teachers to bring out
Prof. Hutchins of Fond du Lac. Mean
while Fond du Lac has candidate quite
favorably known in the person of Ed
Mclaughlin, and Plymouth comes for
ward with A. E. Warden.

DIR. MAYHAM wrote an open letter to
A. X. Delaney asking for some informa-
ton regarding the arrangements made
between Bragg and Delaney. If the
letter purporting to be from Mayham was
not written by Delaney then it was sug-
gested by him and was designed to
furnish him pretext to appear in print
He seems to have most of the papers in
the district at his disposal, while The
Sentinel is pushing his fortunes to the
extent of bis ability. General Bragg
seems to have the support of no paper
except The West Bend Times. Then
the powers in Milwaukee are behind
Delaney. On the whole Bragg seems to
have an uphill fight.

If The Sentinel news columns is to
be credited, every active supporter OF
Bragg is wholly unprincipled, viii
hesitate at no meanness and in fact pre-
fers to do things crooked. While on the
other hand Delaney's supporters are
meek az doves, innocent as babes and
incapable of doing anything wrong. The
fact is there seems to be just as much
difference between the two Second dis
trict factions as there is between repub-
licans and democrats; and still one would
suppose Bragg would attract the support
of the better class. But The Sentinel
specials will not have it so. Dodge
county is pure as snow while Bragg Is
in the field.

AND now Col. King should become
editor of one of the Rusk boomers. He
has amply demonstrated his fitness by
his interview. All that is needed is the
swashy words of praise with now end
then reminder of the danger Milwaukee
was in from the anarchists. Poor little
Hirth, the little cigar maker who is 'tcrazy
as loon" was the most dangerous of
the anarchists. He would be butt of
ridicule in any community and at any
other time than when it is necessary to
find anarchists who were "put down"

to them for a consideration.

The speech delivered by Michael Da-
witt at Chicago on Saturday last is some
thing which should be read by every
took occasion to justify harsh measures
in dealing with England. Davitt gently
reproved this spirit of revenge and said
what the Irish people want is not to graf
ify revenge but to secure measure of
justice. The whole speech is the Ian
guage of statesman. There is no in
vective, no studied eloquence. 1t is a
plain Straightforward temperate discus
sion, wholly different to the Irish popu-
lar notion of oratory.

Coz. KING can be as sloppy as any
fawning paper. When be says ''there is
not man in the state or out of it who
can hold a candle to Gov. Rusk as a
squelcher of Anarchy" he either strikes
the attitude of fawner for favors or is
so addicted to the language of gush that
he is unable to speak moderately. Every
