Many republican leaders are engaged
in movement which has for it's object
the nomination Of Chauncey NJ. Depew
the great railroad magnate and multi
millionaire for president, and Benja
min II. Harrison, the politicians pet
for vice president. If these schemers
should be successful so far as the re-
publican national ticket is concerned

II is quite generally reported that
some of the friends of Secretary Villas,
with far more zeal than discretion, are
trying to boom him for the vacant
chief iusticeship, by circulating among
tition in his behalf If this is true the
movement, although kindly meant,
cannot be anything but annoying
TO Mr.. Villas, rs too many persons
are ready to believe that it might
have his sanction and approval; and
surely he has no need or desire ut this
time to reverse the rule of his life
and become an office seeker The at
tempt to make it appear that Villas is
DESTROYS Of heading off James &. Jcn-
kins or any other prominent democrat
is to be deprecated There is room in
the democratic party for all truly great
men, and it is the work of small pol
iticians to try to create iealousies
among members Of the same household
of faith The names of James G.. Jen-
llins and W. T. Villas have both been
mentioned in connection with the
chief juticeship, and we believe that
the citizens Of Wisconsin, without re
gard to party, would greatly rejoice
if either Of them should be exalted to
that high office The plaudits be
slowed upon Mr. Villas, not only by
the people of his own state but by the
nation as we'll for his able and fearless
course rs public officer is his highest
recommendation. His eminent ability
is greatly needed i'll the important
position which he now holds.

POLITICAL POINTS.

Editor j. b. Brown, of The Galena
Gazette, was the republican postmas-
ter for many years until supplanted 10y
Il democrat at the end Of his official
term. OF course Brown did not like
that. and Of course he took particular
pains to find all the fault he could
with the postal service. Week after
week his paper rallied ut the admins
tration for the totally deprayed con
dition of the railway mail service
which he seemed to suppose was bad
because Of the democrats in it. Final
lv democrat named Wright got list
OF the postal clerks running ON the
various lines into Galena and found
that Of the seventeen in all fifteen
were republicans and two mere helpers
were democrats. Mr.. Wright, therefore,
sent bundle of Mr. Browns news
paper complaints with a statement of
the case to the postmaster general,
suggesting to him, that since there
was So much complaint against this
service, he thought it ought to be
reformed. and he hoped it would be
done by the appointment of some in
telligent democrats in the places of
these republican clerks, who were
charged by the Gazette with being so
inefficient"
-
The st. Paul Globe: Russia is the
most highly protected country of Eu-
rope, yet there labor is least product
i've and least rewarded. Russia's pa
per money is worth only about fifty
cents on the dollar, and the Russian
government is unable to borrow a
cent in any European mart to-day.
Then in contrast with Russia, we take
glance at England, the least pro
tected country in the world. There
labor is more productive, and receives
higher pay than in any other country
in Europe. Her people have in banks
and elsewhere, idly waiting investment,
six hundred million pounds sterling,
or three billions of dollars. Just such
facts as these are what knock the
theory of the protectioniSts into a
cooked hat. If this country has been
prosperous under the burden of the
high tariff, what limit could be fixed
to its prosperity if the burden should
be removedY
The New York Star: 1t was par
