Usually Misleads.


Delavan Herald.
AS usual, the Pioneer Press is ma
liciously misrepresenting the condition
of things in this part of the state.
Among other things. it says: "When
the ground is dry enough to work it
will be too late to SOW wheat" If the
Pioneer Press really wanted to furnish
any reliable information on this sub
ject, all its editors have to do is to look
over some of its country exchangessand
they would find that the wheat and
small grain was all in the ground in
good shape before the rains commenced,
and that they are now dong well, with
the exception of barley. There is no
excuse for such erroneous and mislead-
ing statements as the Pioneer Press is
continually making.

strength Russia possesses, how far supe-
rior it is to that of any other power and
what a substantial foundation 1t is upon
which to base any demands which she
may choose to make.
In short, confident of the outcome of
her months of preparation, Russia pro-
poses oyerawing the rest of Europe.
She has certain ends she intends to at
tain by fair means or foul. by the arts
of diplomacy or the force of battle. She
has definite ideas with regard to the
continuance of Turkish rule in the
East and English supremacy in India.
She intends sooner or later to see those
ideas carried out. The indications are
to the effect that she thinks the time
near at hand when their development
should occur.
If she must fight, she will. Upon the
whole, she would be rather glad to do so.
1t would be very effective means of
solidifying the empire and quieting the
malcontents. But if she can win the
game by a simple show of strength,
without trying conclusions with her OPP
ponentS, she is willing to take that
course. 1t would be cheaper, and finan-
cial considerations are having great
weight with Russia at present.
Therefore, her invitation to the pow
ers to inspect her military strength is
probably the beg ming of series of
events fraught with momentouS conSe-
quenceS for all Europe. If her plan is
effective, if the powers are overawed,
Russia may be expected to continue her
contemplated aggressions unchecked.
If the bluff fails, nothing will be left the
car but to fight to achieve his ends.
For history teaches that, having once
adopted a line of policy, Russia never
gives it up unless overcome by superior
force.

ment with which the Democrats of state
after state wheel into line behind Presi-
dent Cleveland for the pitched battle
that is TO be fought to decide the des-

country. They move with all the pre-

indication of doubt; no questioning of
issues; no hesitancy; no federation of
faction anywhere. The rebuke to fac
ton was not less emphatic in New
York than in Georgia. Everywhere the
masses of the party insist on drawing
the lines tight against demagogues and
machine politicians who oppose them
selves to party principles and the leader
the party has created to represent them.

Truly DepIorabIe.

Rochester Record and Union.
The Republicans in this district are in
middle. They can find no candidate
to nominate against Congressman Will
son who stands ghost of a show of
election. Who to nominate they do not
know. There are dozen small fry
men who are anxious to try the expert
ment, but the man who can win in the
race doesn't reside in the district. Since
Hon. G. NJ. Stuart refuses absolutely to
be candidate, the condition of the Re-
publicanS is truly deplorable.

What we have hoped for is coming like

is this very day as certainly in our

uplifted in the direction in which eman-

High License.

Kenyon Leader.
High license as a remedy for the evils
of the liquor traffic is delusion and a
snare. Where beneficial results follow
the adoption of high license laws it is
universally the prohibitory feature of
the laws which brings such results
about. The licensed dealer in drink
may entice the children, debauch the
father, destroy the business and ruin the
family, injure the business of the COM
munity and intiict irreparable grief upon
thousands of innocent people and there
is no redress.

clear Merriam victory, and the possibili-

PURELY POLITICAL.

''1t ought to be evident to himself, il
not to anyone else, that Henry Castle
can never receive an elective Office" said
member of the late Republican state
convention. lit is not for lack of abil-
ity or character that conventions inva-
of his editorial career that he is de-
feated. In the paimy days of his news
paper career, Mr.. Castle spared no mans
frailtieS nor peccadiloes in politics. He
wrote with pen dipped in gall, and he
struck to kill. All this is cherished
against him to his own bitter disappoint-
ment now"
d. Aberle, who made so vigorous a
kick against Rev. Sam Smiths temper
ance resolution in the late Republican
convention, is st. Paul resident,
wholesale liquor dealer, and a wide
connection with the Republican party
he has had high license rubbed into
him with vengeance. 1t was gener-
ally understood in 1886 that Mr.. Aberle's
vigorous support of Gov. McGill was
based on the assumption that he would
not sign high license bill. When he
did Mr.. Aberle dropped politics in dis
gust, until the new Scheffer boom
brought him out for man after his own
heart.
1t is without question that large
portion of the German element, now
supporting Mr.. Scheffer, expect, if he
becomes governor, that his influence
will be used to tighten the present high
license tax on beer at least. The bur-
den placed on whisky does not trouble

don't know what the
cable dog was. though he was familiar
to most of the people who are regular
patrons of the line. He was a yellow
dog which used to run regularly ahead
of the cars between Wabasha street
and Seven corners, seemingly for
the purpose of warning teams
and pedestrians to get out of the
way. He had run himself to a
shadow, and regular passengers had
learned to look for him regularly.
Finally he became so excited as to raise
the suspicion that he was mad. Several
times he had run through cars, and had
bitten several people slightly. At last,
when he carried away the seat of one
passengers trousers, the cable people
come to the conclusion that he was an
intolerable nuisance. One day he dis
