KulI's Broad Acres.

ELKHORN, Wis, Sept 23.-Democratic
papers are stating with great flourish tina t
Andrew Kull, the candidate for ieuten-
ant-governor on the Democratic ticket,
is the most extensive farmer in Walworth
county, his broad acres near Lake Ge-
neva affording pasturage for the largest
number of sheep owned by any individ-
ual in the state" The Lake Geneva
Herald lets the gas out of this tale by Civ
ing the names Of dozen or more near
neighbors of Mr.. Kull who own farms four
or five times as large as that owned by
"the most extensive farmer in the
country" Mr.. Kull owns 24O acres of
land which was left to him by deceased
uncle. The farm was we'll stocked with
sheep, and Mr.. Kull went into the busi-
ness on large sea e by buying thorough
bred Merino rams. That was before the
tariff on wool was repealed He began
to breed Merinos to sell, aud when the
wool industry was booming he used to
sell off his surplus Merino rams at
large price. Lately, however, be has been
unable to sell his fancy bred surplus at
high figures, and bis herd has naturally
increased on his hands, as be could not
sell except for mutton. He now has on
hand only 250 shep in all, which he val
ues at $3.50, according to the assessors
books. Many farmers in this county, a
few years ago, thought nothing of being
the possesser ofsa thousand sheep. But
there is no longer any money in wool,
and like sensible men, they have sold
their sheep for mutton and gone into
dairying.''

Hon. John A. Barney, of Mayville, was
nominated for the Assembly without any
serious opposition. Mr.. Barney repre-
sented Dodge county in the state Senate
in 1875 and 1876. AS the district is over
whelmingly Democratic. there can be no
question of Mr.. Barney's election.
Quite number of delegates to the
county convention to be held October 10,

INDiANAPOLIs, Iud., Sept. Z8, 1888.
Editor Republican:-My attention has
been called to an article i'm a recent issue
of The Watertown Gazette, land it is so
unjust that beg the privilege to reply.
The article says:
In the course of speech, not many
years ago, BENJAMIN Harrison praised
every race but the Irish. An Irishman
il the audience Elasie complaint, and
Harrison repl ed:
"It is easy to know that mans race: You all
know what they are; If it were not for them we
would not need half our penitentiaries which
are almost t full OF them; they have no i1telli-
gence; they are only good to shovel dirt and
grace railroads, for which they ceceive more
than they are worth. as they are no acquisition
to the American people,"
If the editor of The Gazette could have
witnessed the recent demonstration in
this city at the time the Irish-American
club, of Chicago, paid visit to Gen.
Harrison at his home, and listened to his
address he would have been convinced
that the words attributed to Gen. Harri-
son in the above statement were utterlv
and unqualifedly false I have never
seen the statement before; no paper in
this vicinity would publish it, as it is
manifestly so absurd. have known Gen.
Harrison for sixteen years; he has no
warmer, .ruer, staunchier friends, ire
spective of party, iu this city than the
people of Irish nativity. Heis invariably
invited to address them at their meetings
on st. Patrick's day, and like occasions.
Only few months ago, before bis nomi-
nation at Chicago, he presided at the
opening of the Irish Catholic Fair in this
city, and made the principal address of
the evening. Watertown is my old boy
hood home; | have warm attachment for
its people, and class among some of my
warmest friends there its Irish citizens.
[ write this hoping that if they bave ever
placed any confidence in the above state
ment they will now catalogue It in the
list of campaign lies, where it properly
belongs. Yours truly,
HENRY Coz.

self in battle:
I never saw braver man than Gen. Harrison.
The battle of Rssaca was fought on a bright Spring
day, May IS, 1861 Our brigade which was COM
manded by Col Harrison, owing to the wound
ing of Brig.-Gen. Ward had to charge across an
open field and up steep ridge at the enemy. Har-
rison led the way. waving his sword aud his re-
voiyer. The rebels poured most destructive fire
into US as we crossed the open field. and killed
many Of our men. At the foot of the ridge there
were little trees. We struggled through these and
then dashed at the intreuchmeuts Of the rebels on
the ridge above In front Of their works they had
four cannon. which blazsd away at US as we climb
ed the ridge. They had time 10 load again before
we could reach them but we were 50 close to them
that one of our men was knocked down with q
cannon-rammer by a rebel
drop down." said Harrison, as he saw the
rebels were about to fire the again, but he.
himself was the last to drop. The rebels
fred over us. aHd we dashed over their works and
captured the cannon. They were the only cannon
taken in the campaign. Harrison captured one Of
the cannoueers himself dragging him from be-
meath the cannon. I was shot by rebel infantry
man just before the cannon.
