"Observer" Heard from Again.

Editor Republican: "Fair Play" in
last weeks issue, of your paper, gave a
wrong Interpretation of my letter
which appeared the week before, as to
the position of Senator Voss in his con-
troversy with the Board of Street Com
missioners. [ simply stated that it
might be urged against him, as it had
been, and was, by others, that he rep
resented a'constituency two-sevenths of
which only, by wards, were embraced
in the city of Watertown, while the
other fve-sevenths were not in his
county or senatorial district. | eX-
pressed no opinion as to whether the
point was or was not we'll taken, nor as
to the wisdom or justice Of the pro-
posed legislation.
lam prepared, however, to 60 further
now and condemn the "dicker" by
which he agreed to withdraw the OBJ
noxious measure, or have it killed in
committee, if the board would rescind
it's offensive vote of censure. The sem
ator's bill either had merit or it had
not. TWAS right in principle or twas
wrong. If right, should it be made a
football in the senate and be suffered
to die natural death on any such con-
dition as that which he presented to
the Board of Street Commissioners?
If wrong, should he have coupled it's
withdrawal with the requirement that
the board should stultify itself by con-
Tossing that its first action was a mis-
take? AS the matter stands now all
the parties concerned have been in
consistent, with the exception of Aid.
Rack, whose negative vote on the
proposition to accept Senator Voss's
surrender on the terms offered showed
that he (the alderman was actuated
by principle more than by policy. If
Senator Voss's bill was wrong, it should
have been withdrawn, or defeated on
its merits. If the board was wrong in
its vote of censure on the senator, its
action should have been rescinded
without requiring him to agree to the
abandonment of meritorious bill in
the legislature. The entire proceeding
seems to have been conducted on the
principle of ''you tickle me and I'll
tickle you" Both. sides marched up
the hill and then marched down again,
with their banners trailing in the dust,
giving the whole affair, from beginning
to end, most TACTICAL appearance.

A Tramp in His Travels.

Wednesday night last, a tramp made
raid through the town of Emmett and
stole a harness from the Flavin barn
and another one from the Herman
Brandt place, not forgetting w. j..
Slight in his travels, from whom he
took buffalo robe. He was seen lying
near straw stack covered with the
robe on the Robinson farm in Clyman,
and, Notwithstanding his airy quarters,
he refused to 60 to the house. The fell
low was tracked by his large feet and
Sheriff Hart, of Dodge county, arrested
him at juneau. His examination was
held before Justice Becknan and he
was bound over for trial to the next
term of the circuit court in default OF
$500 bal, meanwhile being lodged in
the jail at Juneau. He gives his name
as john Potter and claims to live near
Clyman, but no such person is known
in that town, hence it is believed that
he is gentleman of the road, pure and
simple.

Death of Edmund Juessen.


A cablegram from Germany last
Wednesday announced the death at
! Frankfort-on-the-M Main of Col Edmund
Juessen, ex-consul general at Vienna,
in his 61st year. He had been suf-
ferer since the war with the disease
| from which he died. Deceased was
the eldest son of the late Jacob JUGS
sen, postmaster of this city during Lin
coins administration. Mr.. Juessen
was for few years resident of Column
bus, this state, where he married his
first wife, a daughter of the late Clark
Smith In 1857, for his second wife,
Col. Juessen married Miss Antonio
Schurz, sister Of Carl Schurz, she and
her brother then being residents Of
| Watertown. About this time Col. Jues-
sen took up his residence in Madison,
where he practiced law and represent
ed his district in the assembly of 1862.
He was made captain in the Twenty
third Wisconsin regiment, the same
regiment of which Senator-elect w. F.
| Villas was Northumberland. JueSsen
afterwards succeeded Villas to the posi-
ton He left the service in 1868 on
account of sickness and resumed the
practice of his profession in Madison,
subsequently removing to Chicago,
where he formed partnership in the
| law business with our former towns
man, Hon. Hiram Barber. Gen. Grant
appointed him collector Of internal
| revenue in 1869. He resigned the office
in 1871 and went to Germany to re-
ceive treatment from eminent physl-
J clans. He returned to Chicago in 1872
and entered into a law partnership
with his son-in-law, II. II. Anderson,
and continued active work at the bar
until 1885, when Cleveland appointed
him consul general at Vienna. Up to
1872 Col. Juessen had been Repub-
lican, but he joined the Liberal Repub-
licans in the Greeley campaign. He
never became identified with the Dem
ocratic party until 1879, when be
stumped Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin
and Michigan for Tilden, following bis
brother-in-law, Carl Schurz, who was
on the stump for Hayes. Immediately
after the Inauguration of President
Harrison Col. Juessen forwarded his
resignation as consul general at Wen.
ma. He then went to Frankfort-on.
the-Main, and, in connection with ex
Gov. Mueller, of Ohio, established the
American Law bureau, which built uI
large business in settling up estates
in Germany where heirs were living il
America, and vice versa. He contin.
ued in this business until his death
He leaves a wife, three daughters and
