SEEKING OFFICE.

The craze for office which a
change of administration gives
fresh impetus to develop some
queer types Of men. Ofice-seel1ing
seems to be a sort of disease.
1t is infectious and few people who
are in Washington at this time
are able to avoid its influence.
But if one watches and notes what
fool it makes of most of men
there is less danger of catching
the craze. 1t is surprising what
nonetities it brings to light and
what superhuman cheek it
develops. A case in point was
noted here few days since in
Senator Sawyer's Committee on
Postohices and Postroads of the
senate.
There were in the committee
room at the time Representative
Myron H. McCord, his predecess-
or, the Hon. Issac Stephenson, D.
H. Pulsifer, the postohice inspect
or, and Marion Wescott, of
ShaWano, all men who are thor
oughly acquainted in the Ninth
Congressional district Of Wiscon-
sin. In walked a Wisconsin man,
a resident of Grand Rapids or
Whereabouts, who shall be nameless
here, but who is a candidate for
a leading federal office in Milwau-
kee. He came in to solicit Senator
Sawyer's influence and the hand
some, influential and valuable
signature of the senator to
petition. Senator Sawyer had
never seen the man before, but,
like true ofice-seeker, the
gentleman proceeded to state his
mission there and interlard his
explanation with copious remarks
about "My work for the party at
home" my influence" "the
money I have spent to help
Republican candidates to Office"
and my power for the good of
Republicanism generally"
Senator Sawyer took the ration
of taffy with becoming grace, and
then, excusing himself, he called,
first Stephenson and then each of
the other Ninth district gentlemen
aside and asked them if they knew
the visitor. Not one of them had
ever seen him before or heard Of
him. And the senator was begin
ming to doubt the wisdom of sign
ing the petition when he turned to
the aspirant again.
There stood the candidate for
place with a petition spread out,
and dancing around, exclain1ing:
Here, senator, sign right here.
1t won't take but minute. Here,

THAT FIRST VETO.

Criticism is made of the Cen
tralia dam veto because the
governor did not privately notify
the Centralia Pulp company that
he objected to certain features of
the dam bill, and SO give the
company an opportunity to recall
the bill and fix it up.
This course may be right
enough in the case Of measures
having purely public good in view,
and there is no objection to it in
the case of bills granting special
privileges to a company, if the
governor has the time and inclina-
ton to sit down with the company,
and assist in drawing up a meas
ure such as he is willing to
approve. But at this particular
period, it is probable that a
governors time is pretty well
occupied with the really public
bills that go through.
The company knew it was
asking for privileges that were
extraordinary and which should
not be granted. 1t was much
easier for the company to go to
the governor and tell him that its
bill asked for remarkable and
unwarranted privileges and SO get
his views, than for the governor
to hunt up the company and offer
his views. In the light Of the
analysis of the measure made by
the governor, it looks like cheek
to complain because he did not tell
the company that he was not
stupid enough to let such bill
slip through.-Sentinel.

Does Malarial Fever Rage In Winter.


have heard considerable of this
fever in our own and other states.
Reports were continually COM
ing in the papers that malarial
fever was prevalent the whole fall
and winter in Wisconsin and
Illinois and other states. How
ever, we are surprised at the
expressed difference in opinion
among the local doctors. Some
of the physicians are now teaching
the public that malarial can not
rage in winter, while others say
that it not only RACES in winter
but that at this present time dozens
Of cases exist in Wood County.
This difference in opinion must
indicate a lack of knowledge on
the subject or willful misrepresen-
tation to the people Of standard
authority on the disease.
Any body could read the reports
Of health officer, Siebert, of Lake
View, Chicago, in the Daily News
that an epidemic Of malaria existed
there in January and FEBRUARY.
Such officials undoubtedly under
stand the nature Of the disease
they are reporting and probably
in what season Of the year they
are living in. One more reference
to a work which physicians tell us
is a standard authority in the
United States will satisfy any
person who wishes to know
whether malaria RACES in winter.
The book is that of DR.. DeCosta
and it has gone through six
editions as shown by its title page.
DR.. DaCosta, who is a Professor,
in Jefferson Medical College, Phila-
delphia, when speaking of malaria
says: ut is a fever pre-eminently
of hot climates and malarial
districts. It is a fever of HUNGARY
Of the Pontine Marshes, and
particularly Of Africa and the
Suthern portion Of the North
American Continent, occasionally,
not often, we meet with it in
winter and early spring; very
generally, during the summer and
autumn weather" Page 844.
All authority, read, agree that
malaria can effect a person at any
time of the year. But when stand
ard authors agree in their different
writings that malaria can rage in
winter as any other time, to
observe some local country
physicians teaching public with
unblushing audacity that malaria
cannot rage in winter is simply to
conclude that the head and front
of the whole matter is ignorance
or knavery or a smattering Of both.

testifes: Il can recommend Electric
Bitters as the very best remedy. Every
bottle sold has given relief in every case.
One man took six bottles, and was cur
ed Of rheumatism of 10 years standing.
Abraham Hare, druggist, Bellville, Ohio
afirms: "The best selling medicine [
have ever handled in my 20 years ex-
perience, is Electric Bitters." Thous-
ands Of others have added their testi-
a,ony, so that the verdict is unanimous
that Electric Bitters do cure all diseses
of the Liver, Kidneys or Blood. Only

4 GOOD JOKE.

"Darkling Don't you understand" Tommy Apes cried out to the porter in & voice loud enough to be heard all over Huston. "Dark- lingbourne-Sr Charles Noodles place; are you deaf?"
 "Yes, sir; no, sir" answered the porter. "Fll have it put all right sir only thought you said Peterborough" And he ran off to get the bag gage reabeled.
 "Confound Peterborough !" grumbled Tommy Apes, with affectation of anger, he scrambled into a frst-class compartment As a matter of fact the young subaltern instead of being annoyed was delighted by the porter's blunder, for it had given him an opportunity of letting those about him know that he was bound for a place no less fashionable than the country house of the great banker and distinguished politician, Sir Charles Noodle.
 "These porters are very stupid" said one of two gentlemen who, coming into the same compartment Tommy, had noticed his apparent annoyance.
 "Stoopid, doosed stoopid!" replied Tommy, fix ing his glass in his eye and gazing earnestly at the speaker. "Just imagine, he didn't know where Sir Charles Noodles place was-thought it was at Rottenboroughp
 "Absurd [" said the stranger, at the same time repressiDg 8 smile; "they'll be wondering next where Windsor castle is."
 "Ya-as, downright monstrous!" said Tommy, as he flung himself into corner of the carriage and turned his attention to the perusal of sporting paper.
 The two other gentlemen in the compartment also devoted themselves to their newspapers, until the train had steamed out of the station and was well into the country. Then the same gentleman who had before addressed Tommy, lowering his newspaper for a moment, said:
 "Pardon me, sir, but isn't Braxley hall somewhere near Darkling bOurne?"
 "Oh, old Squire Cherry's place." said Tommy, eager to show his knowledge of country people, "Well, it is in Dotshire too but you could hardly call it near Darklingbourne."
 "Ah, only inquired because see here," said the gentleman, pointing to the newspaper, "that there has been 6 burglary there."
 "By George l" exclaimed Tommy Apes, intensely interested "You don't say so."
 "Oh, yes but nothing seems to have been stolen," added the gentleman quickly.
 "I suppose" cried Tommy, with a loud laugh, "that was because there was nothing worth steal ing. Old Cherry is as poor as 6 church mouse"
 The stranger laughed quietly at Tommy's little joke. Then he said, after a moments silence, "I can't understand why people should keep valu- ables at their country houses: it seems to me so dangerous. Yet believe many people do."
 "Yes, of course they do" said Tommy. Then, desirous of showing his intimate knowledge of the domestic arrangements of the fashionable Noodles, he proceeded "Now, there's Lady Noodle, for in- stance. She keeps the bulk of her jewels at her town horse, but some of them arc always at Dark Hngbourne, even when she herself is not there. She told me @ herself" And Tommy laid back
