In the light OF these amusing official
documents it seems astounding that
such scheme could have been worked
through the Legislature. Nothing but
the excited condition Of the public mind,
with the resulting reckless and venal
character Of the Legislature, can posi-
bly, account for it. There were not
wanting thoughtful pen who foretold
the progress Of the scheme with great
accuracy, and the teachers Of the State
were substantially unanimous in their
opposition. But no words OF warning
we're needed the State Printers had the
ear OF the Legislative committees. The
operation was very simplei the one
honest supporter Of the scheme among
the teachers was invited to Sacramento,
in his dual capacity OF anti.monopolisi

Labor, and he RECALLED the committee

Extravagant Economy.

Chippewa Falls Independent: The
extremely small appropriation made by
our Legislature for the Worlds fair has
surprised almost everyone in the state.
La Crosse Republican and Leader:
The action of the legislature in cutting
down the appropriation for the Wis
consin exhibit at the Worlds fair to the
comparatively insignificant sum of S65.-
600 has aroused a general storm
throughout the state.
Marinette Eagle: The cutting down
of the appropriation for the purpose of
the state making a creditable showing
at the coming Columbian Worlds Elk
position at Chicago to the beggarly
pittance of SOS. 900. by Boss Wallis re-
form crowd, was eminently character
is.ic.
Eau Claire Free Press: The only
reason why the appropriation has been
cut down to its measly proportions is
because the democratic legislature of
this state wants to make bluff at
economy.
Mineral Point Tribune: By the re-
duction of the Worlds fair appropria-
ton to $4,000 the wonderful demo-
cratic legislature has brought blush
to every patriotic citizen of Badgerdom.
Madison Journal: 1t is not surpris-
ing that the resignation of Mr. Benja-
min, one of the Worlds fair commits
sioners for Wisconsin, has been sent to
the governor on account of the redicu-
lousy small appropriation made by the
legislature for the Worlds fair. The
sum OF 500. 900 would scarcely provide
for respectable side show to contain
samples of the agricultural products of
the state and the amount is totally in
adequate to do the state justice.
Racine Times: The contemplate
pycaunish spirit displayed by the late.
unlamented legislature in only granting
500, 900 to represent our great state at
the Worlds fair, is burning shame and
a disgrace to every decent man and
woman within its limits.

honest, business session of republican
legislature with no sham reform
about it, but with an honest desire to
serve the people wisely and well. That
legislature was asked to appropriate an
amount equal to over 100000 more
than was asked of the reform" legis-
lature, the corpse of which though yet
fresh Fmelleth to heaven. What are the
results ? Why, the actual appropria-
tons of the reform" legislature ex-
ceeded the appropriations of the sensi-
bic, business session of the republican
legislature by many thousands of dol
lars.
Sentinel: 1t only means that the
economy of the republicans is fully
yindicated. Consider for 8 moment
that the democratic legislature was the
first in period of seventeen years, that
it went in with the cry of Economy in
Public Expenditures - Further. that
it established a ''retrenchment COM
mittee" to consider bills that had been
reported by the usual committees; that
the democratic state committee took
charge of the legislation in order to
make a showing of economy even
though public interests might suffer;
and, finally, that the governors mes
sage dealt very largely with the matter
of economy. And the result is that the
sum appropriated exceeds that of the
last republican legislature. which had
no retrenchment committee and was
not in charge of state committee. 1t
is clear enough if this first democratic
legislature, pledged to economy and
wording to make a showing of econ
omy, could not keep down appropria-
tons 10 the sum voted by the repubh-
can legislature, then the republicans
were economical. There is no doubt
whatever that the democrats tried to
keep down the appropriations = the in
decently small sum voted for the
Worlds Fair and the refusal of neces-
sary funds to certain state institutions
prove that And yet the sum exceeds
that voted by the republican legislature.

LEAVING OUT THE JOKE.

Some people are bright enough to
enjoy good joke, but do not have re-
tentive memories, so as to be able to re-
peat it to others. Failures of this kind
are sometimes very ludicrous. We
give some good specimens.
The most famous of this class was the
college professor, who, on parting with
a student that had called on him, noticed
that he had new coat, and remarked
that it was too short.
The student, with an air of resigna-
tion, replied: at will be long enough
before get another"
The professor enjoyed the joke hear
tily, and going to meeting of the col
lege faculty just afterwards, he entered
the room in great glee and said:
Young Sharp got off such a joke
just now. He called on me little
while ago, and as he was leaving, |
noticed his new coat. and told him it
was too short. and he said: 1t will be a
long time before / get another"
No one laughed, and the professor
SOLDERING down. remarked: 1T dosen't
seem so funny as when he said it. -
A red haired lady who was ambitious
of literary distinction found but poor
sale for her book. A gentleman, in
speaking of her disappointment, said:
'Her hair is red (read) if her book is
not" An auditor, in attempting to re-
late the joke elsewhere, said ''She has
red hair, ii her book hasn't "
The most unfortunate attempt at re-
producing another's wit was made by
an Englshman who didn't understand
the pun, but judged from the applause
with which it was crested that it must
be excellent. During a dinner at which
he was guest a waiter let boiled
tongue slip off the plate on which he
was bearing it, and it fell on the table.
The host at once apologized for the
mishap as q "lapsus lingu8" (slip of
the tongue). The joke was the best
thing at the dinner, and our friend con-
cluded to bril- g it up at his own table.
He accordingly invited his company
and instructed a servant to let fall a
roast of beef as he was bringing it to
the table.
When the accident" occurred, he
exclaimed: That's a lapsus lingue. ~
Nobody laughed, and he said again,
Il say that's lapsus ingua," and still
no one laughed
A screw was loose somewhere; so he
told about the tongue falling, and they
did laugh.
why is this" said waiter, holding
up common kitchen utensil. more
remarkable than Napoleon Bor aparte?
Because Napoleon was great man, but
this is a greater" When the funny
man reproduced it in bis circle. he asked
the question right, but answered it,
because Napoleon was a great man,
but this is kindergarten"

Splendid Resolutions.

The resolutions adopted by the con-
vention of the National League Of Re-
publican clubs at Cincinnati are excel
lent reading for the people of the coun-
try. They are as follows:
We indorse the wise, statesmanlike,
courageous. and patriotic course of the
administration of President Harrison.
It's conduct of both domestic and foreign
affairs has been such as to command
the thorough respect and hearty admira-
ton Of every true citizen. Its attitude
in dealing with alien residents and Civ
ing them the protection accorded to
American citizens and 70 more is just,
and should commend itself to the civil
lied world.
We oppose any attempt to debase the
currency and coin of the country, but
insist upon such legitimate increase in
our circulating medium and such main
tenance of the double standard as will
fairly satisfy the increasing necessities
Of trade and commerce.
Loyal and intelligent republicans will
not seek to destroy vested interests nor
to cripple any legitimate enterprises,
put they demand that the best thought
Of the republican party shall be con.
centrated on the formulation of such
legislation as will protect the people
from any exactions of the usurer, from
oppression of monopolies, or from eX-
tortionate demands of public carriers.
Recent events have made more APP
parent than ever the necessity of
exercising the sovereign right inherent
in our nation, as in all others, to use
discrimination in the admission of for
eigners as residents in this country We
therefore recommend such changes in
our laws as will etfectually prohibit the
immigration of paupers and criminals.
We reallirm our belief in the devotion
to the supreme and sovereign right of
every lawful citizen, rich or poor, native
or foreign born, white or black, to cast
one free ballot in public elections. and
to have that ballot duly counted and
certified as counted. Denial of such
right should result in decrease of re-
presentation in congress and in the
electoral college.
We recognize the republican press of
the country as a great and Indispensable
force in the advocacy and promotion of
republican principles. and commend to
every believer in republicanism the duty
of lending his Influence and efforts to
the extension of the benefits of this
potent agency.

Protection for the Farmer.

Some idea of the extent to which
farm products are directly protected
can be gained by glance at statistics
within reach of all vino care to inspect
them. And the honest student Of these
figures is likely to be quite forcibly i'm
pressed by the necessity for maintaining
barriers against foreign competition
90 long as the home market of our
farmers is menaced BY products of for
eign rivals.
During the last fiscal year foreigners
sold in the United States over $42, 00O,-
600 worth of farm proucts, without TAX
ing into the account more than $40, 900

of the tobacco crop for ten years of not

showing considering that the product
