Reasons why They Harm Instead u Benz
at Horsss That Wear Them.
When horse is used for the saddle
no one thinks Of meddling with his
eyes, and we allow the animal to use
them freely, as nature has directed.
But no sooner do we put the same an
imal into harness than We think our
selves bound to fasten black leather
flap over each Of his eyes, so as to pre-
vent him from seeing objects at his
sides, and to limit his view to those
which are in his immediate front.
This is done with the very best inten-
tons, the object being to save him
from being frightened by startling
and unwonted sights, and only to
leave a suficiency Of vision where
with to guide his steps. Herein, as in
feeding and stabling the horse, man
Judges the animal by himself, forget
ting, or rather having failed 10 notice,
that the eyes Of the horse are exceed
ingly unlike our own. Our eyes are
set in the front of our heads, SO that
il blinkers were fastened to our tenn
pies our range Of vision would be but
slightly limited. But the eyes OF the
horse are placed on the sides Of the
head, and are rather prominent, so
that the animal can not only see on
either side, but by rolling his eyes
backwards, as we see in a vicious
horse, can see objects almost in his
immediate rear. The effect of the
blinker is both physically and men
tally injurious to the horse. In the
first place, especially when large and
brought near the eyes, it has the eff.
feet Of heating them and hindering
the free passage Of air over them. In
the next place, it causes the eyes to be
always directed forward, and thus pro-
duces q most injurious strain on the
delicate muscles. We know how
painful q sensation is felt when we
are obliged to strain our eyes either
backward or upward any length Of
time and the horse suffers no less in.
convenience when it i forced to keep
its eyes continually strained forward.
The worst example Of tho blinkera
that ] have ever seen were In the
United States, where the blinkers (ol
cylinders" q they are there named)

from our own, and arc not affected

rendered even more daxsling by tn

guards lies in the remarkable structur
which Is properly termed the ''haw,
and scientifically the "nictitatinl
membrane" This il . sort Of thir'
eyelid ret beneath the true eyelida
and capable Of being drawn at vii
over the eyeball, thus performing tn
double duty Of shielding the eye from
the direct glare Of light and clearing
the surface from dust and any othe
foreign substance. This membrane

so that the proverbial statement tina

From reliable reports some of the
closing scenes of the Mineral Point
fair, last Friday evening, were very
similar to the famous Donnybrook va
riety. The orderly disposed people OF
Iowa county can much better afford
TO endure such lawlesSness than the
people of Mineral Point can afford to
perpetrate and tolerate such proceed
ings.-The Dodgeville Chronicle.
The above statement is absolutely
false. There was but one case of dis
orderly conduct in Mineral Point during
fai week, and that occurred after six
O'Clock, p. m, on Friday, the closing
day of the fair a special police force
was appointed on Monday, and hay
ing served throughout the fair with
out being called upon to arrest or
quiet single noisy individual, they
were not on the alert when the row
referred to occurred. The editor of
The Chronicle was evidently not pres
ent at the fair to witness the quiet
and orderly manner in which the great
crowds of people in attendance had
behaved themselves. If he had been
he would know better than to publish
what is base SANDER on the city and

4 Deserved Rcbuke to Bishop Newman.

Inc -haulSpn democrat
Bishop Newman, the republican
Methodist bishop, whose fame as a
republican is considerably more prom
inent than his fame as divine, has
made an egregious blunder from a
political standpoint, and from the
standpoint of a broad, liberal Chris
tianity. He is quoted as saying: " /
look forward to the time, dear breth-
rem, and hope it will be no distant day,
when a foreigner will be no longer
allowed a place in any legislative
assembly in our land" The prayer of
all broad and liberal souls should be
that brother Newman may be widened
and broadened in soul, and made to
see that he is narrow, bigoted and
illiberal. If brother Newman had
lived i'll the days of the apostles it
never would have entered his head
that salvation was for both Jews and
Gentiles. When st. Paul said "God
who hath made of one blood all the
nations of the EARTH" the bishop
wouldn't have comprehended the
meaning Of these eloquent words. But
the bishop will always be in the minor
ity in such illiberal ideas.

The Mineral Point fair, which took
place last week, was one Of the most
successful meetings of that association
ever held. The display of stock in
all departments was good, and in hogs
and horses was unusually large and
fine. John W. Horn, the secretary,
proved himself the right man in the
right place" and made everything as
pleasant as possible for visitors. Quite
a number from this city attended, and
all seemed well pleased with the ex-
hibition. The only drawback that we
could discover in the entire arrange

The Ohio Democrats.
The Lacrosse Chronicle.


To those who have had any doubt
that the Democratic party is determin-
ed upon the low tariff issue nothing is
more gratifying than the conditions in
Ohio. The Democratic convention of
Ohio was presided over by manufac-
urer of agricultural implements who
made a strong low tariff spe ech The
platform was clean-out endorsement
of the st. Louis platform of 1888. The
candidate nominated for governor,
voted in congress for the Mills bill,
and the name of Grover Cleveland was
greeted with rapturous applause by
the convention. These are good signs
in state that has been somewhat
tinctured by protection heresy. 1t is
also an evidence that the chairman of
the National Democratic committee,
Mr.. Brice, has a good influence at
home

There is ne presidential or congress
sional campaign on foot this year, and
The Chicago Tribune is telling such
ugly. hard truths as the following:
1t is an insult to common sense
to affirm that the tariff enhances the
price of wheat, corn, oats, cattle, hogs
horses or mules, poultry, butter, cheese
milk, hay, fruits, vegetables, cotton
or tobacco leaf. The price of the
farmers products is fixed by the for
eign markets. and the price of nearly
everything the farmer buys is deter
mined by the tariff and its incidents
