OTTo GAFFRoN, the present editor of
The Plymouth Reporter, is young man
of sturdy honesty. He is one Of the
most persistent men in the state in ac-
complishing any purpose he might have
formed. Should his first effort be I'M
successful it serves only to strengthen
his determination to persevere. His few
words approval of the Bennett law in his
salutatory, strong, unmistakable and
earnest, fully outline what his course
will be. There is no power in politics or
surroundings which will shake that
purpose. The Fifth district has now
almost a solid phalaux of democratic
papers published in the English Ian
guage supporting the Bennett law, The
Port Washington Star, Plymouth Re-
porter, Chiffon Times, Two Rivers Chron-
icle, and Pilot. The Kewaunee Enter
prise is non-committal, while the Brown
County Democrat and Green Bay Advo-
cate are but mildly in opposition.

ALL the geedy ones are to the front
now. The prime test of qualification for
Office is ability to denounce the Bennett
law as unjust and unholy." Whoever
can sound this shibboleth is at once &C
corded fellowship in the gang anxious to
sacrifice themselves for the public good
by holding public Office. Just now they
are the democratic party and have full
power to determine what constitutes
membership. But it is hopes of p1llage
which give them enthusiasm. The loot
ing of the republican camp not the tri-
umph of principle has been the incentive
to their activity. Peck was anxious to
become mayor of Milwaukee; he made
the Bennett law the stepping stone of
his ambition. Pratt looked long1ngly
toward the governorship of Wisconsin;
he used the Bennett law as net to cap
ture the prize. Unfortunately for him
his record was not in harmony with his
protestations and he had the good sense
not to undertake the task of reconciling
them. Bouck saw an opportunity to
crafty the ambition of his life, and he
used the Bennett law as text through
which he announced his hostility to pater-
nalism. Even the little fighting general
OF whom better things might with good
reason have been expected, undertook to
keep step with the procession. Ed. Nc
Loughlin M. D. flung his banner to the
breeze and stalked about to find one little
spot on the Bennett law which had not
been preempted by the toe of some other
office seeker. But he was too late and
he contented himself with putting on war
paint and joining in the war dance of the
other braves whose extreme caution did
not permit them to declare themselves
hostiles until the Bennett law was SEEM
ingly unable to make the slightest kick.
But as a reward for what he would do if
opportunity presented itself he wants to
be secretary of state. They all want pen
sions and as only limited number can be
given there is danger of internecine strife.
Captain Fred Horn has already given
a sort of tentative kick. Circumstances
prevented the Cedarburg 1--WE" from
standing for the senate and he announc-
ed the fact as if it was a cause OF griev-
ance to the state. But he Is going to
the assembly and he has his choice for
governor. He publishes threat in good
anti Bennett-law English. Fred says
just the opposite of what he means but
when Fred talks you must lump himself
and his words and then you are never
mistaken as to his meaning.
And so it is. There is war among the
hooters. The anticipated spoils are too
rich and as they go to but few there can
be no harmony among those of covetous
disposition. They are beginning to knife
one another so as to bring the pillagers
and the booty into some sensible ratio.
1t is fun to watch them.

kEMMLER the New York murderer suf-
fered death through electricity last
Wednesday. This mode of legal execu-
ton was not in this first instance as COM
pletely successful as people expected.
After the current was withdrawn, Kemm-
Ter gave signs of life and the onlookers
were horrlfied. 1t is the best opinion,
however, that the movement of the
muscles was no indication of returning
consciousness but sort of reflex action
OF the nerves. For the time it has made
this mode of execution unpopular I'm
perfect as it was it was less barbarous
than hanging.

Thu Oshkosh Times modestly remarks
that "the position of Judge Prendergast,
of Chicago, a man of acknowledged learn
ing and ability, on compulsory education,
is very like that OF The Times" The
Judge writes as if he had read and I'M
derstood the Bennett law. IT the editor
of The Times has read the law he daily
gives evidence of inability to understand
it. Perhaps in the whole course of his
life Judge Pendergast has not had any
thing more offensive said of him than
that he and The Times think alike.
