Prof. H. T. Matchett, principal of
the academy at Hanover in 10 Daviess
county, was shot dead about , o'clock
on Sunday afternoon while on his
way home in buggy with Henry
Prisk, a ncighbor, from Snodgrass
Corners, five miles distant, where they
had been conducting Sabbath school,
the first named as superintendent.
Prisk says that a man named Skene,
who was on foot, emptied a five
chambered revolver at the two, killing
Matchctt and wounding Prisk in the
right arm. After firing all the shots
he vaulted fence and made his es-
cape in the woods. Skene is a son of
Supervisor William Skene Of Hanover
township. The motive for the crime
is said to have been a refusal on the
part OF Matchett to permit his sister,
who has been his housekeeper, to re-
ceiye attentions from Skene. While
the inquest was being held at Eliza
beth on Monday, an elder brother of
Skene brought him into the court room
and delivered him up to the sheriff to
avoid the possibility Of his being

That ever wide awake newspaper,
The Milwaukee Journal, devoted con
siderable space last week to discuss
ing the question of whom should the
democrats of Wisconsin choose for a
leader. While believing this dis
cussiou al right and proper, The Dem
ocrat is decidedly Of the opinion that
the democratic party Of Wisconsin is
now and has been for the past twenty
five years, more in need Of voters
than of leaders Notwithstanding its
being in the minority, it has always
contained a large number Of very able
men, who lowered head and shoulders
above the leaders Of the majority party.
And besides these really able men
there WAS never a scarcity Of would be
leaders whose chief ability consisted
in pushing themselves far to the front.
And whenever opportunity offered they
lnNarlaOiN demonstrated their utter
untitness for leadership, by dong their
level best to lead the party off after
some heresy. 1t is this class of leader
ship through which harm has come to
the party in the state, But the heart
of the party is now firmly set upon
the real vital, moving principles of
true democracy. The true leaders will
be the men who represent these prin-
ciples in the most eminent degree
When such leaders are chosen the will
deserve and receive the support of al
true democrats, and of hosts not now
within the party fold.

The Plymouth Reporter makes a
good point in strongly insisting that
the first vice president of the Wiscon-
sin Press association, b. !. Price, of
The Hudson star and Times, should
bc elected President of the association,
to succeed John Hicks, lately ap-
pointed L. : minister to Peru The
!Rcportcr says
"B !. Price. of The Hudson star
! and Times. a genial and able gentle
man, ard the First Vice President of
the Association, is temporarily filling
the duties OF President of the ASSo-
citation, in the ahsenc of Mr.. Hicks.
This is exactly what he was elected
for. and it is certainly most discount
couS to suggest any other arrangement.
The Reporter has no objection TO offer
t. MIR Euhlec personally, and would
gladly see him President of the Asso-
citation under proper circumstances,
but We must protest against So tlagrant
a diseourtesy as the removal of Mr..
Price to make room fer Mr. Rublee or
any one else at this time Mr. Price
is competent for the position, and is
well worthy the honor which circum-
stances have forced upon him"

In IN article upon the recent death
of Hon. William H. Barnum, chair
man of the Democratic national com
mittcr, The I.aCrossc Chronicle says:
Under the circumstances it was
unfortunate that the committee had Il
chairman who was at heart a protec-
Zionist himself, as Mr. Barnum m-
doubtedly was, and it is unquestion-
able that the influence of Mr.. Barnum,
Mr.. German and men of their views,
was the cause of serious disagree
mcnts with Mr. Calvin :. Brice, who
was chairman of the campaign com
mlttrc, into whose hands details of
the campaign work fell. = With
his we'll known views, there was no
more fatal error made in the cam
paigu Of 1883, by Democrats, than that
of clccting Mr. Barnum chairman of
the national committee"
