Let us Have a Stone Crusher.

Inc DARLINGTON JouTnai.
Annually for the past five or six
years The Journal has urged upon the
city fathers the great advantage to be
derived from a stone crusher in ma
cadamizing our streets. During that
time thousands of dollars have been
expended in macadamizing few rods
here and there where mud was deep
est, when for the same amount of
money at least fifty times the work
would have been accomplished had the
city owned machine rock erusher
Our thinking tax payers now very
generally realize the fact, and the de-
mand is almost unanimous that the
present city council give orders for
machine at once.
Mr.. John Lanyon of Mineral Point,
is patentee and manufacturer of the
most approved stone breaking machine
in existence. The smallest size, No. l,
will crush the hardest limestone into
inch pebbles at the rate of ten tons an
hour. The machine costs but few
hundred dollars and will last a lifetime.
The city council should heed the voice
of the people, and buy one without de-
Law.

On his return from Washington to
take up his duties as private citizen
OF the capital city of Wisconsin, The
Madison Democrat gave Hon. Robert
M. La Toilette a very friendly and
complimentary personal notice; and
now many republican papers through
out the state are railing at The Demo
crat because IL did not see fit to speak
SO pleasantly of Mr.. La Toilette last
fall, when he was a candidate for re-
election to congress. The organs should
calm their RULED feelings. Last fall
IL was the bounden and patriotic
though sorrowful duty of democratic
newspapers and democratic campaign
speakers to oppose Mr.. La Toilette,
the advocate of the system of robbery
which goes by the name of protective
tariff taxation. AS such they handled
him without gloves. While they abhor-
red the unjust principle which he rep
resented, and greatly wondered at the
uniustitiable stand which he took up
on the all important matter of federal
taxation they all entertained the very
ktndliest feelings for the man. The
Democrat is right in giving him a kind
word Of welcome home.

The senate committee on privileges
and elections has reported favorably a
bill which is designed as substitute
for the Cooper election law. Provision
is made for printing upon the ticket in
columns by themselves and under their
respective headings, the names of the
nominees of the different parties; and
an opportunity is given for voting the
straight" ticket by simply making a
single cross mark at the top of a
column. While there are some tritling
defects in the Cooper law which ought
to be corrected, the proposed change is
too sweeping to be desirable. The
present law has worked fairly well, and
The Democrat hopes that it will be

ing changed in any important respect.

Mineral Point witnessed very quiet
election on Tuesday. The Cooper law
sa-.les the question of electioneering
at the polls and works admirably.
The voters walked up and expressed
their choice of candidates. and the
number of "split tickets" that were
found when the ballots wers counted
showed that party feelings and party
prejudices were for the time almost en-
tirely set aside. Considering the fact
that the defeated candidates are all
popular men, those elected have reason
to appreciate the endorsement given
them. Following is the result in the
