Fourteen years ago Wegener conducted
a successful surveying business in the
bank building In Hoboken. He had a
pleasant home aud was blessed with two
children His marital relations were OF
the happiest until one night he had a ter
rible quarrel with his wife. The next
morning he arose at his usual hour and
departed for his business. He did not 90
to his Office at all, and was not seen
again.
His wife was well nigh distracted, and
after spending considerable money en-
ploying detectives TO hunt him up.
mourned him as dead On Saturday
night. as the Wegener faHnily was about
TO sit down to the evening meal In their
humble home on Adams street, knock
was heard at the door. The door was
opened by Frank, the twenty-five year
old son Of Wegener He failed to recog

The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1890-05-22

THERE was quite lively time in the
house on Saturday last. Bayne of Penn
sylvania, relying upon the republican
majority and the partisanship of the
speaker to sustain him, read a letter from
a man named Campbell which was bitter
ly denunciatory of two democratic men,
bers, Bynun of Indiana and Wilson OF
W. Virginia. Bynum in reply, denounc-
ed the writer as liar and perjurer, but
said he had as much confidence in the
character of Campbell as in the character
of the representative who read the letter.
| Reed permitted the letter to be read but
called Bynum to order when he defended
himself A motion to censure Bynum
was carried, but motion to reconsider
would not be entertained by Reed who
| together with his partisanship had a
grudge against Bynum for having roast
ed him some time ago for his rulings.
When Bynum was brought before the
/ speaker for censure, all the democrats
who could, accompanied him. School
master Reed ordered them to take their
seats. but they refused. Bynum ac-
cepted the censure as decoration of
honor.

WHY should Milwaukee people object
to having the management of their pub
lie schools turned over to those who
argue that public schools are an unmixed
evil? The election in Milwaukee last
spring was an almost unanimous express
sion of opinion that the public schools
were corrupting agency. If the Mil
waukee council had summary abolished
its public schools instead of adopting the
slower process of destruction, it had
ample authority in the result of the late
election.
Doefher university graduate, for
years teacher in the public schools OF
Milwaukee and with experience as school
commissioner was beaten for that posi-
ton by Pritzloff who was educated in a
parocElal school. Rauchenberger, the
former president of the school board is
beaten by man whose children do not
attend the public schools; but do attend
the parochial schools. A Mr.. Siegler, a
Catholic, was encountering opposition
but he procured a statement from the
pastors of the Lutheran churches that
they had nothing agin" Siegler and then
he was chosen.
Suppose that those who believe in the
superiority of the public schools to the
parochial schools should seek to obtain
control of the latter, what howl would
be raised throughout the state and how
the Office seekers would prance with in
dignation at the outrageous interference
with the rights of conscience. The Ben
nett law itself is of little consequence.
But it has brought to the surface spirit
of hostility to the public schools which
has lain dormant for want of opportun-
ity. That spirit is now rampant and is
fostered by every Office seeker in the state.
The people should pause before doing
what it will take years to repair. Do not
sacrifice the public schools to crafty any
mau's political ambition. Take warming
from Milwaukee.
