From Two standpoints.

To be a woman-direst woe,
The rights of men she ne'er can know.
She cannot cast the mighty vote
Or sound the ringing campaign note.
Her key fits not the midnight latch;
'Tis tedious work to strike match.
Baseball is forbidden sport:
Her hair is long instead of short.
To be woman happy state,
To govern man and guide his fate.
She takes the middle Of the street
And In the horse car gets seat.
She has her say-more than enough
And has 1t, too, without rebuff.

Most always vanquished by the queen.

h. II. Price for State Senator.
A SKETCH OF A RISING YOUNG MAN.

The career of Hugh H. Price,
the subject of our sketch, is in
many ways a remarkable one. A
young man aged twenty-eight
years not only makes his mark in
business but also finds himself
nominated to the important office
Of State Senator. 1t may be
asserted that favorable circum-
stances have placed him in the
exalted commercial as we'll as
political position, yet those who
know him best will say his many
qualities entitled him to the posi-
ton. His decided force of
character would sooner or later
place him prominent among his
felloWmen. Mr.. Price was born at
Black River Falls, Wis. After
completing his education at the
State University he entered the
numbering business. His peculiar
adoption for a business became
apparent to those about him and
he soon became the leading spirit
in his fathers extensive interests.
He demonstrated, above all things,
his fitness to command men; his
dealing with them at all times
being just and fair.
Heis a business man, thoroughly
welded to his calling, and if his
health is spared he is destined to
become one Of the most extensive
and successful business men in
the Northwest. He is fortunate in
having had a good example set
him by his father, the late Con-
gresham Price, whose record as a
business man will compare well
with that of any one in this or any
other state.
His good sense may be best
judged by an extract from an
interview in one of the large
Chicago dailies:
I'D rather be a good logger
than poor congressman. My
election was only for the short
term and really is more of a
delicate compliment to my fathers
memory than any proof of my
ability"
Being free from that vanity
which is too liable to carry away
the ambitious, being tempered by
a clear and correct judgement,
being conscious Of his own abilities
and, knowing how to apply them
a career is assured.

THE NINTH DISTRICT.

AMIGO, Wis, Sept. I2.-Gen.
w. H. Early, Of Chippewa Falls,
received the unanimous nomina-
ton Of the Democrats of the
Ninth district here to-day for
congress. This was the results,
Notwithstanding delegates from
Wood county favored Jon. A.
Gaynor, of Grand Rapids, and a
large number were for G. w. Cate,
of Stevens Point. The convention
was called to order by Judge
Marchetti, Of Wausau, chairman
of the Congressional committee.
S. S. Riddell, of Chippewa Falls,
was made chairman, and E. B.
Thayer, Of Wausau, secretary.
The platform endorses Cleveland,
favors tariff reform and denounces
the alleged practice of Republican
mill-owners of coercing their
employees to vote the Republican
ticket
Gen. Early thanked the conven-
ton neatly for the nomination and
promised to make a thorough
canvass Of the district. Theo.
Kersten, Of Chiffon, also made a
short address. The Congressional
committee was selected as follows;
Chairman, Louis Marchetti, Wau-
sau; J. J. Fuerth, Ashland; L. J.
Newald, Chippewa Falls: Ferdi-
nand Coligan, Sturgeon Bay; B.
Monahan, Monico; A. B. Willard,
Amigo; ], M. Cotter, Merrill;
Henry Robinson, Spencer; ]. Evans
Marinette; Samuel Griffin, Oconto;
John Barnes, Rhinelander; H. w.
Lee, Stevens Point; J. n. Phillips,
Shawano; S. A. Corning, Mcdford;
Myron Reed, Waupaca; w. T.
Jones, Centralia. Neal Brown,
the recently converted Democrat
of Wausau, addressed a meeting
in the evening at the Opera house.
Gen. Early is wealthy lumber
man of Chippewa Falls. When a
resident of Williamsport, Pa, he
was twice nominated for congress
by the Democrats and therefore
knows how it is to run on a
Democratic ticket in Republican
district.

GOOD OLD MAINE.

The democrats never made a
more vigorous fight in Maine than
they did this year. They spent
an immense amount of money
there; they sent their best speakers
there; their assistant, the prohibi-
ton party, made a gallant fight;
the best prohibition orators, includ-
ing Miss Willard, were there; the
state was canvaSsed and re-can-
vassed by the democracy, not so
much in the hope of carrying it,
but they did believe that they
would greatly reduce its majority
by building up a prohibition vote
and getting out the democratic
vote. But old Maine was as solid
as a rock. Democracy's dema-
gogue orators and the silver
tongues of the prohibition parrots
and the tens of thousands OF
dollars collected from the saloon
interests and from federal office
holders, made no impression upon
the loyal, steadfast, true republi-
cans of Maine. They raised their
banner and walked into the
enemy's camp and swept him out,
slick and clean, increasing the
republican majority, carrying it
beyond anything that state has
given during the past twenty-five
years, in the September election
The 10000 majority last Monday
means between $4,000 and $4,000
majority next November.-[Sunday

COMPLEMENTARY.

An old schoo1mate writes US
from Madison, about H. H. Price,
candidate for State Senator in this
district, as follows:
A. L. FoNTAINE, My Dear Sir:
[ intended writing you earlier in
relation to Hon. Hugh H. Price,
candidate for State Senator, in our
(32d) Senatorial district. Any
words you may express in his
praise will be duly appreciated by
those who have known him many
years. He is an active, energetic,
bright young man, of good ability
and clean in his habits and associ-
tons. He is not a politician in
the offensive sense of that word,
and does not belong to that an
noying class known as, standing
candidates" or professional office
hunters. Since he left the Univer-
sity several years ago, he has been
in charge of large business en-
ploying from 400 to 700 men and
successfully managed it, and since
his fathers death the entire man
agement Of a large estate has been
placed upon his shoulders. He
will make useful Senator
and I trust that Wood County will
show its loyalty to him in Novem-
Der next.

Mr. William Dempster Hoard.

The fame of the great-hearted,
clear-minded candidate of the
Wisconsin Republicans is extend
ing. His speech to the Young
Mems Republican club has struck
readers far and near as something
refreshing in campaign of noise
and fury. A man with the sweet
ness and mellowness of Emerson,
the geniality and thoughtfulness
and humor of Lincoln, the juveni-
lily Of Holmes, is a spectacle SO
rare on the stump that he COM
mands instant attention and ad-
miration. The experienced great
editor of The New York Sun, Mr..
Charles A Dana, has read Mr..
Hoard's speech and enjoyed it.
He says: "Mr. William Demp-
ster Hoard, the Republican candi-
date for governor of Wisconsin, is
making a rafting canvass. On
the stump he is a power. The
simplicity, directness and humor-
Gus force Of his oratory remind
people of Abraham Lincoln, and
he is a wonderful story-teller.
Anecdotes are as thick in his
speeches as plums in a pudding"
Mr.. Dana then gives some speci-
mems and continues: "To the
Young Mems Republican club in
Milwaukee the other evening, Mr..
Hoard declared that he should
always be boy. Why he said,
during our army6 days, when a
commanding general desired to call
men to the very highest pitch OF
heroism and courage, what did he
say to them? Did he say Old
men, charger No; what did he
say? Boys get thereP I hope,
continued Mr.. Hoard, that when
I become so permeated with dry
rot that I am no longer good for
anything, they Will simply lay me
away, and consider me not as an
old man, but as a played-out boy
Mr.. Hoard is still comparatively
youthful, but if he lives to attain
the years of Michael Eugene
Chevreul, or even of some of the
minor patriarchs Of the Bible, he
will still be young. Such a man
never grows old"
There is one fact in relation to
Mr.. Hoard with which Mr.. Dana
is not familiar, but which must add
immensely to his admiration for
the Republican candidate, namely,
che can jess make a fiddle talk
and cry, He doesn't set himself
up as a virtuoso, but in the quiet
of the evening when the cares of
the day are done he can make
your heels culver with Money
Musk" and Devils Dream" Is
it any wonder he is loved by
people? And back Of all is an
intense purpose in life to be of use
in the world.

WHY WAGES WOULD FALL.

The idea that free trade would
not affect the wages paid to labor
in this country is advanced by
every Democratic advocate Of free
trade. They declare that the cost
of labor is an inconsiderable item
in the value Of any manufactured
article. Of course the value of
any article depends on many things
fashion, supply and demand, the
existence or absence of substitutes,
etc. But on a proper estimate Of
the relative value of labor in any
article, it will be found to be far
from inconsiderable.
In making estimates of the cost
of labor in manufactures, the free
trader takes the census statement
of amount of wages paid and
compares it with the state
ment cost of material. He finds
that the wages paid do not
amount to anything like the cost
OF material. But he ignores the
fact that in the cost Of material is
included the wages of those who
prepare the material. There is no
such thing as absolute raw
material. Labor has been ex-
pended on everything that goes
into manufactures and the wages
Of labor are included in the cost.
To take the first item in the
census list of manufactures agri-
cultural implements. The wages
paid amounted to SI5,35Q,9Io in
1880, and the cost of materials
S2J53I,I7o. The free trader says
that if the manufacturer could get
his materials free Of duty he could
sell his product much cheaper
without reducing wages. AS a
matter of fact, the chief value of
materials is in the labor. The
men who chop the wood, the men
who dig ore, the men who smelt it,
the men who put it into form for
use, the men who dig the coal, the
men who handle it for transport
all have their wages represented

in this cost of materials. To put
raw materials" on the free list, is
to put the wage earners all along
the line in competition with foreign
wage earners who receive less.
And as the amount of wages put
into "raw material" is its chief
value, it is wildly absurd to say
that wages would not be affected.

PENSION INFORMATION.

The commissioner of Pensions
gives us the following information
in pension matters in his annual
report:
There were added to the pension
rolls during the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1888, 6o,252 original
pensions. Increases were granted
in 45,7I6 cases.
LOSS TO PENSION ROLLS.
There were dropped from the
rolls of several agencies during
the fiscal year for various causes
1890 names Of pensioners. The
total number remaining upon the
rolls at its close was 452,557.
The amount Of money expended
in payment of pensions was $751;
.775,86E.02; the cost attending
such disbursement being, for the
pay Of the officers, employees, ETC.,
of the Bureau of Pensions, its
agents, surgeons, special examin-
ers, ETC., $500, 524.67, the cost of
disbursement being d fraction less
than 4 per cent. of the total ex-
penditures Of the Bureau Of Pen
sions. The total amount expended
for all purposes by the Bureau of
Pensions was S82,o38,386.59,
being 2I1z per cent. of $4,000,
900, which was the total (estimated)
gross income of the United States
for the period aforesaid. The
total expenditures Of the Govern
ment for the fiscal year 1888 were
S267,o248oI.I3; SO it will be seen
that the amount expended for and
on account Of pensions was nearly
Fl per cent. of the entire outlay Of
the Government
The highest rate of pension
issued during the year was $4,000
per annum; the lowest now being
granted is S24. The table of rates
published hearafter will give full
information as to the rates paid to
