Federal supervision of elections is not
a desirable thing, even if it could be ac-
compliShcd, but there is everything in
the situation To warrant the belief that il
cannot be accomplished in the South,
and that its application elsewhere can
result only in mischief.

We trust that the Senate will lay
aside the Lodge bill. rs We are convinced
that its enactment would be serious
blow to the prosperity of the South, and
that any advantage the Republican
party gained by IL would be- temporary
and likely To react in later elections.

another column are the names of
the gentlemen. A majority of them
have been tried, and not one of
them has fallen short of the de-
mands laid upon them in their
official capacity; in fact they have
proven experts, dispatching their
duties promptly and intelligibly, re-
flecting great credit on themselves
and honor on the county. Do we
need any better? No. Do Repub-
llcans want to see them displaced?
Of course not. Then vote the
straight ticket from top to bottom,
as the Democrats generally do and
intend doing. The Democrats con-
cede that there is no possible chance
to elect man on their ticket in this
county, unless they can draw from
the Republican fund of generosity,
which is power they rely on, still
never have anything to give in re-
turn but abuse.

COUNTY SEAT


From the Chronicle:
Married at the residence of Henry
Kramer, in this city, Sept. 6, 1890,
by Rev. M. G. Baker, Mr.. John c.
Roberts and Miss Hattie Carpenter,
all of this city. Mr.. Roberts was
born and raised in this city and at
present is occupying the position of
Assistant State Librarian, at Mad
ison, where he and his bride will
make their future home. The best
wishes and congratulations of their
many friends in this city will go
and remain with them.
The revival meetings conducted
by Rev. j. +. Wolf at this place are
assuming large proportions, the
Park Rink Tor, as he terms it, "Gos
pei Hall'0 being well filled every
afternoon and packed to overhowing
almost every night and all day Sun
day. While Mr.. Wolfe's methods
are somewhat harsh and inconsider-
ate, and while some things he has
said would have been better left un-
said, there is no denying that on the
whole he is doing much good. The
members and pastors Of all the
churches in the city have been
drawn into the work, and an absence
of sectarlanism prevade< the com
munity which is refreshing to OBJ
serve. Up to Wednesday evening
two hundred and nineteen persons
of the city and vicinity had pro-
fessed conversion, large proportion
Of whom are adults, and the good
work still goes Oh.

The Kelly Meeting

Last evening, per announcement,
the Hon. John L. Kelly spoke in
this city on the issues of the cam
paign to large, attentive and APP
preciative audience. The gentle
mans expoundings of national and
state affairs were in mild, yet clear
cut and convincing style. After
an undisputable declaration that the
Republican party possessed dispo-
sition to do something for the benefit
of the citizens of this country, and
citing wherein that something had
been done by the congress just ad-
journed, Mr.. Kelly took up the COM
pulsory education, or Bennett law,
the real and only issue of this cam
paign. His mode was thorough.
The platforms of the two great po-
litical parties were quoted to show
how these parties stood Oh the ques-
ton, and analyzed one after another
the sections of the law itself, sand
witching in bursts of oratorical elo-
quence and American loyalty that
provoked rousing applause. 1t was
made plain to all who are Ameri-
cans from principle as well as in
name, that the much abused and
misrepresented law was really some
thing progressive and beneficial in
stead of tyrranical measure, as
unloyal democratic office seekers
would have voters believe. A fitting
praise for our manly Governor, our
brilliant U. S. Senator, and our except
ionally able Congressman, and the
speaker who has won the admiration
of the people of Mineral Point, be-
cause of his manliness and elo-
quence, bade all good night. Mr..
Kelly's efforts are sure to bear good
fruit for the cause he espouses.

INCENDIARIsM.--Early last Fri,
day morning when young Pittz, who
drives the U. S. Hotel bus, went to
the barn to get the team ready to
make his customary trip to the 6:45
train, he noticed hog loose that
belonged in yard in the rear OF
the barn. He proceeded to ascer-
tain how it got out, and found the
gate open, and being on that part OF
the premises he was luckily afforded
a chance to smell something burn,
ing. An nvestigatlon of the base
ment in the rear revealed some
straw and pine board carefully
adjusted and saturated with kero-
sene slowly burning because OF
extreme dsmpne.s. The fire was
easily put out; but what a fortunate
u6LeCtlOu. lul5 Was suici the
work of sn incsndiary, for which
class terms severe enough cannot
be applied. Had the intended
destruction been successful who can
picture its terriblcnessy Besides
consuming the barn and It's valuable
contents, several adjoining resi-.
dences and barns would probably
have gone, resulting in one of the
biggest fires in the history of Min
eral Point. 1t Is hoped that any
like attempt in the future, in any
part Of the city, will result in the
detection Of the villain.

The Democrat copies from a
Monroe paper a statement that a
condensing factory of that city has
been advised by tin dealers that
they will be obliged to pay one dol
lar per box, or five and one-halt
cents per pound more than hereto
fore for tin, because of the Mckln-
ley tariff. Now the increase in the
tariff on tin plate being only one
and two-tenths cents per pound, and
that not to take effect until the first
of next July, it should be explained
how the law can justly be charge
able with the increase of 81 cents
per pound at this time. Of course
it is not to be supposed that foreign
manufacturers, from whom practl-
cally all our tin plate is now OBJ
tanned, have combined to put up the
price for their own gain. Only
American manufacturers are so
selfish as to do such a thing as that
according to our free trade advo-
Gates.

a Common Weakness.


A common failing of weak
pettifogger in bad case is to abuse
and vilify the opposing attorney.
Thus Candidate Crawford, made
quate to the task of defending the
position of himself and party on
the school question, resorts to per-
sonal filings at the editors of the
TRIBUNE. If his clumsy fiction
about unfulfilled promises to an
editor of this paper, by Senator
Spooner or other prominent Repub-
licans in relation to an Indian
Agency or any other position, was
true as it is false, what bearing
could it have upon the questions at
issue in this campaign? Would it
be any reason why Candidates Craw-
ford and Baker should receive the
votes of people who do not believe
with them that the Bennett school
law is unconstitutional, unwise, un-
American, and should be repealed?"

the famous "Bsnnett School Law

in order that readers may have an
opportunity to study it carefully
without bias of partisan comment,
and be prepared to vote on election

the Republican state platform up
holds in all its essential purposes,
but asserts that the parent or guar
dian has the right to select the time
of the year and the place, whether
public or private and wherever To-
Gated, in which his child or ward shall
receive instruction, and the party is
pledged to modify the existing law
so that it shall conform to these
declarations.

ONE of the things that is neg
lected in our common schools is
teaching children how to write and

the fact be impressed upon every
girl and boy that name and ad-

annually go astray and reach the
dead letter Office, many of them of
large value, enforce this fact. II

presented to them the Importance
of so small a matter it would be one
