MARY Herman Abel, author of the

During the last winter in western

for the discussion of purely domestic
topics. The number was made up
largely by accident, a method to b.
highly recommended for bringing TO
bear on subject the greatest variety
OF opinion. Especially was this advau-

sion OF the average income. The
method OF work IN this club was very
simple. that each member should pre-.
sent one OF the ten subjects chosen,
either by paper or a talk, and lead the
discussion ai,erward. Among the sub
jects discussed were the following, they
being such as met the present interests
and needs OF the members:
The service question.
Cooperative cooking.
House building as compared with
house renting,
The food bill Of the family, including

The Democrat has received a copy
of the proceedings of the thirty ninth
annual meeting of the State Histori-
cal Society Of Wisconsin, held Dec. 10,
1891, which is issued in pamphlet
form. The following extract from an
an accompanying circular gives good
idea of the great library which has
been acquired and preserved by this
institution: "The State Historical
Society of Wisconsin, organized in
1848 and re-organlzed in 1853, as the
trustee Of the State, has accumulated
library of nearly 10000 vulumes,
which ranks third, in size and import
ance, among the great historical lib
raries of the United States, and is the
largest reference library west Of the
Alleghanies. Situated in the State
Capitol, the library is continually re-
sorted to by scholars and special in
vestigators form all portions of the
West and South, and its reading rooms
are daily thronged with students of the
State University of Wisconsin, to
whom the collections are freely access
ible"

TILE SUGAR. ROTNTY.

The last issue of The Darlington
Democrat contains a very interesting
letter from Hon. H. II. Gray, written
at New Orleans, under date of Feb. Is.
Mr.. Gray exposes the humbuggery Of
the sugar bounty clause in the McKin-
ley law. He says:
The bounty given the sugar men has
made the business active and profit
able, but the poor laboring man gets
no more wages than formerly. The
good granger who votes for paternal
government gets twenty pounds of SUI
gar for dollar, but he takes 40 cents
out of the treasury to pay for the
privilege, and wears shOddy to get the
40 cents into the treasury. And still
the ungrateful democracy Of the south
will not vote the Republican ticket.
The bounty on sugar and the tariff
on rice is the same old story. The rich
are becoming, every day, better off:
and the poor white man and cOlored
man are being manacled and bound to
poverty.
A striking instance of the working
of the sugar industry is here seen.
The poor man who does not raise cane
enough to entitle him to a bounty sells
his syrup to the rich man for what he
can get and money bags" gets the
two cents bounty.
The colored men are happier and
work better than they did when ex-
pecting 40 acres and a mule" The
vicious carpetbagger did a great injury
in keeping him for voting purposes,
and ever since President Hayes with
drew the bayonet he is taking his
place under the land of his creation.
Very many are highly respected citi-
zens, making homes and educating
their children.

Out. and Out Forever.


Well, Mr.. Blaine has taken himself
out of the arena. He is not in the
scramble for the presidency-and we
are thankful. Now if Hill will with
draw himself, there would be two out
that we have always found it impos-
sible to regard favorably, in compar-
ison with others.
We really think Mr.. Harrison in
many respects the superior of Mr..
Blaine, just as we think Mr.. Cleveland
greatly superior to Hill. Mr.. Harrison
is not so theatrical as Mr.. Blaine, he
has not the same ability to make him
self up, as it were, to command the
affections of those who love the spec
tacular; but he is quite as able a man,
and we think more conservative and
conscientious. BY all means let it be
Mr.. Harrison again, Messrs. Republic
ans.

m Democrat, and follower of
the teachings of the fathers of the
party, not simply labeled democrat"
is the way Col. Gabe Bouck concludes
a sour and cross grained interview
with reporter of the Oshkosh Times
1t is well that Col. Bouck is so highly
satisfied with himself as a follower
For in times past he was most mis-
erably poor leader. But the Demo-
Gratis of Wisconsin have rejected such
leadership, and the party is much the
better for it. 1t is the heighth Of pre-
sumption, for 2 man, who has adVoca-
ted fat money and voted, in congress,
against tariff reform, to set himself up
as a follower of the teachings of the
fathers of the Democratic party. 1t
is glorious thing that those teach
ings have been expounded to the
younger generation of Democrats by
ADLER and wiser men than the Usage J"
of Oshkosh. That the good seed so
implanted has taken root is shown by
the determined stand taken by the
party in this state, for sound cur
rency and just and equitable system
of tariff taxation; and by loyalty to
the foremost champion of these prin-
ciples-Grover Cleveland.

WaShin0tOn's Mother.

From Ex-President Cleveland's Ann Arbor
speech,
I should be ashamed of my country,
if in further speaking of what Wash
ingtOn has done for the sentiment of
his countrymen, it was necessary to
make any excuse for reference to
constant love and fond reverence, as
boy and man for his mother. This
filial love is an attribute of American
manhood, a badge which invites our
trust and confidence and an indispen-
sable element of American greatness.
A man may compass important enter
prises, he may become famous, he may
win the applause of his fellows, he
may even do public service and de-
serve measure of popular approval;
but he is not right at heart and can
never be truly great if he forgets his
mother.
In the latest biography of Washing
ton we find the following statement
concerning his mother: That she
was affectionate aud loving cannot be
doubted, for she retained 10 the last a
profound hold upon the reverential
devotion of her son; and yet as he
rose steadily to the pinnacle of human
greatness, she could only say that
George had been good boy, and she
was sure he would do his duty"

The editor Of The DodgeVille Chron-
icle should take a day off and brush up
on geography. He says:
Mr.. Aldro jerks, district attorney,
accompanied by his wife, started on a
southern tour last week, and will
spend few weeks in New Orleans
among the Mafias and perhaps visit
other places of interest. If Mr.. jerks
finds it not warm enough in New Or
leans, he will probably cross over into
Louisiana and take part in the war
there among the democrats for politi
cal control Of the state where it is said
to be so hot that each man is obliged
to carry a Winchester rife in his hat
to prevent sunstroke.
It's no wonder that the last appor-
tionment of Wisconsin doesn't suit
newspaper that would have man
cross over into Louisiana from New
Orleans. Perhaps The Chronicles ideas
Of the county, town, precinct and ward
lines correspond with its ideas of the
state lines. Who knows?

Ex-senator Spooner must explain.
A short time ago it was discovered
that Wisconsin democrat of promi-
nence, was holding an important ap-
polntlye Office under the present repub-
lican national administration, and that
the appointment was secured by Mr..
Spooner. Ever since the discovery
was made republican politicians have
been repeating to themselves the vital
question first propounded by the i'm
mortal Webster Flanagan, "What
are we here for, but for the offices ?"
And if the eloquent Senator would re-
tain their love he must explain why
these things are thus. Bro. w. II
Bennett, in the last issue of his paper,
The Baraboo Republic, referring to
Spooner as candidate for the repub-
lican nomination for governor SAYS:
1T does not require a politically
prophetic vision to see that Ex-Sena-
tor Jno. c. Spooner is the foremost
candidate for the republican nomina-
ton for governor, and it is no dispar-
agement to Mr.. Spooner to say that he
seems TO be in the attitude of Mr.. Bar
kls-" Wlllln.' No one disputes that
he VIII make strong candidate. and
an able executive. In the campaign,
however, he must be prepared to ex-
plain that clandestine appointment of
that Objectionable democrat, 7. Scott
Ansley, to one of the best positions in
the Indian Service. The re-appoint-
ment of f. w. Oakley as Z. s. Mar
shall, with the senator's brother-in-law
as deputy, will be criticised. as also
other appointments that seem unwise
Besides he must be on his guard
against the knives of many disappoint,
ed applicants for position, who are not
few, and many of whom freely claim
that the senator failed to perform
much that he promised"

A Correct View of the Matter.
The Shullsburg Pick and Cad.


"GoV. Boyd, according to the dis
patches, refused to give the ex-gov-
ernor his hand at the reception the
other night. Well, there is some ex-
cuse for Boyd's frigidity. It was hard
to even pretend cordially toward the
man who had deprived him of an
Office to which the people had elected
him and then impugn his citizenship
by fighting him to the bitter end.
Forgiveness of wrongs may be a
Christian virtue, but hypocrisy is not,
and Governor Boyd would have been a
hypocrite had he professed hearty good
will toward Thayer, whose stubborn
ness had caused him so much worry
and expense.
