felt. The new law puts all unrefined

tariff reformers" that this reduction
in the duty on sugar was accomplish

in Congress favored it. Not less than

Broken Promises,

The present reform legislature of
this state has created two new Judi
cial circuits. There was about as
much need of another circuit in this
state as there is of a fifth wheel to a
wagon. Some ambitious Democratic
attorneys had to be rewarded for po-
litical work done to elect the reform
administration" and as "boss Wallis
campaign funds are insufficient to sat
isfy their demands. they are to be
pensioned off on the state as circuit
judges. One of these new circuits
consists of the counties of Clark, Eau
Claire and Jackson. A Judge IN this
circuit, if reasonably Industrious, will
not be occupied to exceed three
months during the year, and Judge
Newman, in whose circuit Clark and
Jackson counties have heretofore
been. has expressed himself as Op-
posed TO the creation of the new cir
cult and declared his ability and
willingness to take care not only of
his former circuit, but of Eau Claire
Co., if Judge Bundy was unable to do
so. But the Democratic machine de.
creed otherwise and this unnecessary
circuit has been established. Mr.. W.
f. Bailey of Eau Claire, late Demo-
cratic nominee for Congress, has been
very active in pushing this bill
through the Legislature, and is the
candidate of the machine for the
he has helped to create.
This legislation is far wide of the
promises of economy and reduction of
salaries and abolishing of unnecessary
offices so profusely made during the
campaign. But we never did have
any confidence in Democratic prom
Uses of reform and are not disap-
pointed.

Temperance means moderation,
not total abstinence"
That was the original meaning of
the word, but words grow, and gain
force as they grow. The word item
perance" as now ordinarily used does
not signify moderation in the use of
good things, but total abstinence from
indulgence in that which in it's very
nature is Incorporate and calculated
word Temperance" means modera-
ton, but while requiring moderation
in the use of good things the Bible al
so requires total abstinence from evil
things. The modern reformer real
ICES that both commands are based on
the same principle-the necessity of
keeping the physical nature in sub
lection to the spiritual-and that the
kind of temperance that the Bible
commands is only possible to one who
abstains from bad things. He there
fore holds that, down at the root of it.
true temperance involves total alb
stinenee from alcoholic beverages in
this country and age, whatever may
have been the case in Palestine eigh-
teen hundred years ago. Our circum-
stances and surroundings, our temper
ment and our liquors, are all widely
different from those of the Jews at
the time of Christ. If. therefore, it
could be fully proved, as it cannot,
that our Lord and His disciples used
the light fermented wines of Pales-
tine, that fact would not in any way
justify American Christians of to-day
in encouraging by their example and
votes the traffic in fermented and dis
titled damnation which is blighting so
many lives in this fair country.

In Memoriam.

The nation mourns her warrior chief
heartfelt sorrow ILLS the land:
Columbia's dear beloved son
Obeys at last grim Deaths command.
Both North and South unite 10 sing
The praises of our chieftain brave,
While floats DER all the banner of
The Union that he fought to save.
Our hero ne'er from danger shrank.
His soldiers spirit knew no fear;
He braVed alike the lannon's roar
And capuOus Envys scornful sneer.
In camp he was friend to all,
With many tale the time beguiled;
He had lions courage. but
A heart as tender as a child.
When low the cloud of civil war
O'erhung our sunny southern sky,
When factions rent the land in twain
And TreasOu's banner waved on high;
When base Oppression's cruel bonds
Bore down the WCary, hapless thTall,
ohio's son right ga lantly
Responded 20 his cOuntrys call
Not sOrdid greed. nor love of fame,
Nor hatred stirred his lofty soul;
He sought alone his country's good,
Her peace aud unity his goal.
At Nicksburg, Knoxville. Kenesaw,
on Chattanooga bloody field,
He bore his part, nor stayed his arm
Till Slavery was forced to yield.
Let Caesar boast his thousands slain,
Or Bonaparte his empires won;
Their fame beside his glory seems
AS eandle-light before the sun.
When future ages have forgot
Their evil, sanguinary fame,
Each loyal heart Will thrOb with pride
AT mention Of our SheTman's name.

Mother Grady's Goat.
BY A LOCAL POET.

Mother Grady lived over in Poverty Flats,
In a rickety, tumble down shanty;
Her place was a refuge fer dawgs and cats,
And the old woman's names were scanty.
And she'd dearly delight to see the dawgs fight,
And the cats round The yard go tearin;
She name as could be, as crooked as a tree,
And a regular terror fer swearin.
Mother Grady possessed a big Billy goat,
Wild whisker ten inches in length;
He had horns like an OK, and their what knocks;
Like the pole-cat, he'd plenty of strength.
He could run like a deer, and the fence he could
clear
Wild one spring of his nfmble feet:
And when once he'd set out fer a big buttin bout
Very soon he would clear the whole street.
The old woman would come and cheer Billy on,
And say "Clane um out, We ould divil,"
And Bill he would sail like big thrashing fail
Til all things were laid out livil.
Billy never had butted the ould woman yit,
As of her he was somewhat afraid;
But one day he spied her come out on the lawn
As he painted and sweat in the shade.
And he thought What joke it would be, to be
sure,
Just to give the Ould woman toss,
And fire her over that high board fince,
She II think she was kicked by boss"
So he ran like the wind fer about three rods,
Then landed ker- bill on her hustle,
Her head il made dints in that high board inee
And her soul from her body did hustle.
And Billy then sadly did view the result,
Ana his heart sure wild grief IL was breakin.
So he ate a hoOp-skirt and an Ould flannel shirt,
Known well his own life he was takin.
The ould woman's spirit has wendell it's flight
And we think we are spanking quite candid
When we say she did light where the fire burns
bright;
Yis, we think it was hot where she landed.
