a Manufacturing State.

The most common mistake Of polite
ians of both parties is the notion that
Wisconsin. is more essentially an agri-
cultural than manufacturing state, and
that it has less interest in a protective
tariff than other states. It is on this
notion that the Democratic free-traders
base their absurd claim that it is fight
ing ground.
Wisconsin is deeply interested in
manufactures and the chief ..hope of its
future, the hope Of its farmers as well as
all other classes, is in the increase of
manufactures. In 1870, Wisconsin had
81, 100000 invested in manufacturing
enterprises; in 1880 it had S74 900, 900.
In 1870, it had $4,000 hands employed
in manufactures, and in 1880 it had
10000. In 1870 its manufacturing
products we're valued at 100000,
and in 1880 at Sl28, 100000.
The rate Of increase in manufactures
has been greater the past eight years
than in the preceding ten years. It is
a reasonable estimate that Wisconsin
has Sl25 100000 capital invested in
manufactures and that it has 10000
persons employed in manufactures and
mining and 10000 employed in trans
portation and trade whose employment
depends very largely on manufactures
The value of its manufacturing products
will amount to sI50, 100000 or more a
year. It has some 100000 persons en-
gagged in agriculture, including boys
above l6 years Of age, the value Of
whose product is less than that Of man
ufactures
The growing manufactures of Mil
waukee, Appleton, Menasha, Sheboygap.
Racine, Kenosha, and scores Of other
places in the state, have increased the
demand for railroad facilities and fol-
farm products and thereby increased
the value Of farms. The population Of
this city has increased $4,000 in eigh,
years and the increase has been caused
by the growth Of manufactures. Any
national policy that would cripple OF
discourage manufactures would be a
blight on Wisconsin, Mlwaukee Sen

For six years | was called his pastor,
but it seems to me it was more in
appearance than in reality. To me
it will always seem that Henry A.
Newbury was my teacher and father.
And yet how little | knew the man
compared with some of his earlier
friends, who have been his compan-
ions for nearly half century. The
fitting thing would be for them to
stand on this platform and testify to
the worth of the man they have
known so long.
In his life as neighbor his vir-
tues shone with rare beauty. A
man of strong feeling, he sometimes
expressed himself hastily, but with a
quick intuitive perception, he would
recall his words before they had
time to stir up strife. Not only will
this man be missed, but he is one
who will live for a great many years
in the good influences and example
he has left behind. This entire com
munity has been made the richer by
this mans life.

Queer People.


This is the title of the latest, and by
all odds the most charming book for lit
tie people we have ever seen. It's ia
bles, or stories, are delightful, but the
illustrations are simply immense
The author, Palmer Cox, is a new
star in the juvenile armament. but he
shines with unique brilliancy. His
charming fables rival those of the world
famed Hsop, and he far outshines that
celebrated literary comet by his inimita-
Bile illustrations. He dresses up his
birds, animals, insects, giants, fairies,
goblins, etc, in grotesque style and
makes them reason, talk, dance, and cut
up all sorts of the oldest FRANKS imag-
Unable, affording infinite delight. as we'll
as excellent instruction to the young.
The issue Of his book "Queer People"
has brought perfect ovation of praise
from the brightest men in the land.
For instance, Gen. Clinton B. Fisk says:
cit has set my children wild with de-
light" and Col Russell H. Conwell,
the famous lecturer, says: "Don't send
me another such book, for I can't get
my children to bed"
The famous statesman, diplomat, and
wit, Sunset Cox, says: "The Kweer
Kapers are simply Incompatible" while
the distinguished theologian, DR.. How
ard Crosby, says: "They have the fas-
cination that belongs to Ksop and Tn
Gle Remus," and the venerable poet,
DR.. Oliver Wendell Holmes, writes: 81
am sorry ! have not nursery full of
little folks to enjoy its bright pictures
and stories"
Esop's fables are enjoyed by old and
young and are quoted by the greatest
orators, and surely these equally charm
ing stories, SO profusely and exquisitely
illustrated will charm young and old for
generations to come.
The sale Of this book will surely be
enormous. 1t is published by the we'll
known house Of Hubbard Bros, Phila.,
