SECRETARY WINDOW is pursuing the
republican policy of getting rid of the
surplus by buying bonds at an enormous
premium. The reports from Washing
ton of the premiums paid cannot be cor
rect as the amount paid above par-29
per CENTS greater than the interest on
the bonds from the present to the time
of maturity. The AZ per cent. bonds,
which will have matured in short time
and are then redeemable at the face value,
are now purchased at 10S,-a very nice
thing for the bondholder. But this is
the very thing the people voted for. No
doubt in short time the republican
party will be boasting of how it reduced
the surplus by reducing the national
debt, but will be silent as to the amount
of money given to the bondholders. But
the people will applaud and IN 1892 will
fall into line to whip the south again.

SENATOR TAYLOR intends to stump the
state next year in the interests of his
railroad bill. The Pilot hasn't even ia
ken the pains to acquaint itself with the
provisions of the Taylor bill, as it clearly
fore saw its passage depended wholly on
the wishes of the railroad companies, just
as it has not concerned itself IN the least
with the Pond BILL as it was certain that
bill would go just as the political inter
ests of the members of the legislature
might direct. IfTaylor stumps the state
and gets any foothold won't there be a
scampering to his side!

CORPORAL TANNER is a sort of gushing
commissioner of pensions He announces
that he will be liberal with pensions, just
as if the whole matter rested with him
without reference to any department OF
the government. And then he announces
with q flourish that all the confederatee
must go. Tanner is evidently under the
impression that he is the entire govern
ment and that his will is the law He is
shrewd enough to perceive the peoples
liking for inflated language and is giving
them a liberal dose.

WATERFOWL has finally defeated the

obligations to pay the bonds voted in aid

The city has fought the matter for years
and during all that time has managed its
affairs without a city government. The
case was lately decided in favor of Water

victory was celebrated in the most en-
thusiastic fashion and well it might as
the city got little or no benefit from the

THE Cooper law does not apply to the
city of Milwaukee. The state has but
little to do with Milwaukee, anyway, on
legislative matters, while Milwaukee has
great deal to do with the state. The
legislature is under the guardianship of
the Milwaukee lobby and usually does
just what the lobby directs. 1t would be
a good thing for the state if Milwaukee
would secede and set up a state govern
ment OF its own.

not good for the state? The argument
that 1t is unconstitutional cuts no figure
