Lutherans for Hoard.

GREEN BAY, Sept. 7.-Since the de-
claration of Mayor J. HI. Elmore, a
lifelong Democrat, that he would belt
the Democratic ticket this fall, and
support Hoard for governor, many
prominent Democrats have fallen into
line and vouchsafed their intentions
to vote the Republican ticket. Pro-
Fred Holman, a member of the firm
of Weise, Holman & Co., city, and A..
Michaal, who is outspoken in favor of
the Bennett law. Such is the general
situation in this vicinity. Thereports
that many Lutherans throughout the
county are taking sup arms" against
the Bennett law are unfounded. So
far as can be learned the majority of
them are supporters Of it.

English Sparrow Pie.

Although not the best fare, spar
rows are not to be despised as an ad
dition to poor folks dietary. 1t
seems odd, therefore, that the bird
should SO abound in some parts OF
the kingdom as to be considered al
most as great a pest as the rabbit is
in Australia, says The London Globe.
Why does not Hodge sally forth,
gun in hand, and bring home a fine
meat meal for his starving family?
Simply because the game would not
pay for the candle; every sparrow
bagged would cost more than it was
worth.
A far more economical method of
making a bag is, however, recon-
mended by g correspondent of a York
shire paper.
Having stepped a quantity Of rice
in whisky or rum, scatter the grains
about at some place much frequented
by sparrows. The knowing little bird
has a weakness for stimulants and in
a very short time not a grain will be
left undevoured.
But the sparrows, shockingly in
ebriated, can not rise on the approach
of the fowler, who picks them up at
his leisure, repeating the operation
until he has secured enough for a
family pie.
The cost is said to be next to moth
ing, aud success absolutely certain.
But look at the wickedness of it (!
There is the pandering of an unholy
craving, there is downright fraud
on a confiding bird, and-who shall
say ?-there is the chance of eternal
perdition for feathered sinners cut off
in their favorite sin.
And all this merely to provide food
for a few human beings. The end
does not sanctify the means, and we
feel assured that every Hodge who
respects himself would far rather
drink therum or whiskey himself than
put it to such unworthy use.
His virtuous stomach would revolt
at sparrow pie, however deity made,
based on deceit and drink. 1t is said
nevertheless, to be an appetizing and
nutritious dish when the birds are
stuffed with bread crumbs and repose
on layer of steak to make gravy.

Maine Heard From.

The Republicans achieved a great
triumph in Main, Monday, electing
their state ticket, members of con
gress and legislative candidates by
largely increased majorities. The vic
tory is the more significant because
of the bitter warfare the Democrats
made upon Speaker Reed, who is re-
turned to congress backed by ma
jority doubled over that of two years
ago, thus indicating him before the
people for his rulings in the speakers
chair. The story Of the victory of
the Republicans and its lessons is
best told in the following dispatch:
AUGUSTA, Me-, Sept. S.-Chairman
Manley, of the Republican State COM
mittee, sent at midnight the following
dispatch to Presidsnt Harrison !:
"Maine gives the largest Republican
majority thrown in an off year since
1866, and a larger majority than Civ
enin presidential contest since 1868,
with the single exceptions of 1884 and
1888. Gov. Burleigh is reelected by
amajority exceeding / 5000. Speak
er Reed is reelected by the largest
majority he ever received, exceeding
1900. Representatives Dingley, Bou-
telle and Milliken are reelected by
majorities ranging from 5000 to s.
600. The Pine Tree state endorses
your administration and remains
firm in its advocacy of protection to
American industries and American
labor"

THE Manitowoc Pilot of last week
plumply bolts the nominations of the
Democratic convention. The follow
ing extracts are from it's editorials on
the subject:
"Intimations have reached The
Pilot from various sources that it
will be subjected to a boycott unless
it gives it's adherence to the anthem
nett law plank of the Democratic
platform and comes out in favor of
George Peck. AS those who talk this
purpose permit it to reach the ears of
the person to be coerced through
third parties, a direct and personal
reply is madeimpossible. This makes
necessary public announcement
that those who wish to boycott this
paper will be met half way. There is
no power in Wisconsin great enough
to compel The Pilot to do that which
it does not choose to do. 1t has not
begged for business nor for subscribers
and it will not sacrifice one little of
it's convictions to retain either. The
Pilot does not subsist on charity nor
assume the attitude of suppliant
for patronage. Whatever comes to
it comes unsolicited. The editor of
The Pilot can make his living else
where than in Manitowoc and has all
the independence which such asooth-
ing reflection is we'll calculated to pro-
duce.
There would be qualification and
infamy for any one connected with
the public schools of this state, to
follow the leadership Of Col Krez,
who originated this issue for the
Democratic party. Fancy asuperin-
tendent of schools facing body of
teachers and admitting that the
schools they manage are breeders Of
loafers How would you like it pa
irons of public schools? How would
you like it teachers?
There is not a fiber in the heart of
the editor of The Pilot which does not
beat time to Democratic principles.
But he does not recognize opposition
to the public schools, or to the Eng
fish language as q Democratic princi-
pie. If the election of state officers
in any way effected free trade there
might be some lingering doubt as to
the advisability of repudiating the
corrupt form of democracy which the
political tricksters of Milwaukee have
substituted for the genuine. But the
election of Peck has no more to do
with the tariff than the election of a
town clerk at town meetings. The
only question involved in the election
of state officers this fall is the right Of
the state to require instruction in
English and this is the foundation of
the public school system.

Rood glan es the Women.

Speaker Reed is beyinning to smile gain.
He has not smiled much sine the recent
elections, but the edge wears off the keenest
disappointment after awhile.
The speaker says the women are chiefly
responsible for the disastrous defeat
which the Republican patty sus-
tanned, and that the commercial
drummerS helped to effect il. The
women, he says. keep the run of prices snd
have the keeuest scent for increased CO It.
The clerks in the stores told the-a that thu
price of this and that arsicle mad been raised
because of the Mckinley bill, ami they
weat home aud told their hu SOC IDS and
brothers, who went T. the hallo:-5ox and
put in thair protests against any further
increase in the cost OF living
The drunmers, who travel all over the
country, told the courtry merchants that
they should buy heavily before the McKiu-
ley bill. decreased prices, and the store
keepers told their customers all alb ut the
effect of the bill upon prices. The conse-
quence was that the whole country got the
impression that the Mckinley bill placed
new and unnecessary burdens upon the
people
The speaker is about right in what he
says concerning the women and the drum
mers TLey were as effective agents as the
newspapers in informing the people what
thew might expect from the Mckinley bill
And prices are bigher--a great deal
higher-than they were before the Nc
kinney bill bscame a law 1t doesn't make
any diffie ence how the people learned
what the eff, ct of the bill would be- They
learned it, aud they rebuked the party
which, without any satisfactory reason,
greatly increased the cost of everything the
people have to have in their homes aud in
conducting their industr enterprises.
