'Niobe" is restful relief from the mo-
notonous stream OF farce comedy. A large
part of its charm, as has already been noted
here, is Miss Goes admirable performance Of
the title role. Her rise has been so rapid,
and her development as an artist so great,
that it is hard to gauge the possibilities Of
her future. When an actress possesses as a
basis personality naturally magnetic, and
is disposed to work hard, success is certain
ly hers in these days. The women who by
themselves are charming are very rare on
the stage. HEPBURN JOHNS.

The Central Wisconsin, republican
paper published at Wausau, makes this
fragrant exhibition of it's knownothing
spirit:
"While it may be true, as Gov.
Hoard surmises, that the young voter
has been attracted to the Democratic
party, its decisive accessions since
1888 came from the naturaliZed fore
ign vote. This numbers several hun
dred thousand and is very largely
Democratic. BY means Of it the over
whelming majority of the ignorant
vote Of the northern states, which has
always been democratic, has been
largely increased"
The spirit Of the antagonism to
thrifty enterprising immigrants, who
come to this land of freedom to better
their condition, is unAmerican and
should not be countenanced. Mani
festations Of this spirit may be ex-
pected in numerous pr positions to
restrict immigration. 1t is to be hoped
that our national legislators will set
their faces as flint against such meas

Campaign Methods Contrasted.

1t is very fortunate that the means
adopted by the two parties in the con-
duct of the campaign should have con-
formed to their respective ends. The
aim of the Democratic party was to
benefit the whole people of the country
by relieving industry of hampering bur-
dens, but this aim appealed to the whole
people, and no one class had a special
interest in it such as could be made the
basis of an appeal for money to carry on
the campaign. There were of course
the usual and inevitable ambitions of
Office seekers, but these were engaged in
local conflicts, and left little to spare
for the exigencies of the general canvass.
On the other hand, the Republican
contention in behalf of the hampering
of all traffic and industry for the en-
richment of few favored persons made
a campaign of corruption absolutely in
evitable. The managers had no diff
Guilty in making out a list of the men
whose interest it was to supply them
with money in quantities large enough
to stife the popular protest against the
methods by which that money had been
acquired. The newspaper owned and
edited by the Republican candidate for
the vice presidency saved them all
trouble beforehand by compiling a list
of such persons, a list of which the pur-
pose was so evident that it became
known at once as the 'sFat Friers
Guide"
1t was because these men hid private
interests dependent upon legislation and
opposed to the public interest that they
were expected to contribute largely to
the fund of their party.
Of course this situation made inevi-
table campaign of corruption. While
the Democratic managers could not have
carried on such a campaign if they
would, the Republican managers could
not have avoided it if they would.-New
York Times.

From the report of Secretary Foste

From the report of Secretary Foster,
just published, it appears that for the
fiscal year ending June 80, 1892, the
national revenues from all sources
including the bank redemption fund,
passed by the act OF July IA, 1890, to
the general fund were $425,868, 26O,
and the expenditures for all purposes
were $4159, 1906, leaving balance
of $9,914,453. It is estimated that
the revenues for the year ending June
80, 1898, will be 1858, 336,35O, and the
$461 ,3336, 1851, which would be surplus
of of S2,Q00,00O receipts over expendi-

near Brodhead and the other reported

THE DEMOCRAT.
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1892.
The amendment to the state consti

The amendment to the state consti-
tuition, prohibiting any special legis-
lation for the " incorporation of cities
or the amendment of charters thereof"
was carried at the recent election.
Heretofore city charters and amend
ments have comprised more than one
half the volume of laws enacted at
each session of the legislature; and,
while costing the respective cities, and
the state, large sums of money, they
have lacked uniformity-an essential
feature, besides being, in many cases,
i'll advised and faulty. While the
amendment just adopted does not
affect existing cities SO long as they
choose to remain under present char
tiers, no new charter can be obtained
nor can any old charter be amended,
except by coming under the provisions
Of the general charter law enacted by
legislature of 1889. This is we'll
considered act, which was framed by a
committee of sound lawyers, appointed
by the supreme court, for that purpose.
The Democrat believes that it would
be wise for the people of Mineral
Point to adopt the general law for
their city government; which can be
done by a three fourths vote of the
common council. Citizens generally
should give this matter consideration,
and express their judgment upon the
proposition.

sheds and barns, and not giving a
