The nOnlvs, in Convention.

The Democrats of this county
met in convention at Dodgeville
last Tuesday and elected as delegates
to the state convention, Richard
Kennedy, J. NJ Smith, John Bill
lings and +. A Carr.
The resolutions adopted consisted
of four. The first was a hearty en-
dorsement of the actions of the
democratic Legislature, special stress
being laid on the interest gathered
in from state moneys, the wonder.
full investment of trust funds, and
the judgment obtained in circuit
court against the ex state treasurers,
picturing (only in the prospective,
remember,) the immense SUN of
100000 as returned to the state.
Assemblyman Crawford being
chairman of committee on reso-
lutions, it would not be reasonable
to expect any other than an endorse
ment of this kind Of his own
actions. However, there was no
reference made to the great expense
of the SPECIAL session of the legis-
lature, made necessary by the
b'undering democratic legislature
in redistricting the state, which
will get away with more than the
interest money which the state
treasurer is duly credited with hav-
ing turned over.
The second resolution patted
Representative Bushnell on the back
for voting against the Bland silver
bill, and in doing this endorsed the
Republicans moreso than their own
party.
The third was simply an asser-
tion that tax was a burden.
And the fourth and last was a
call "to arms" for tariff reform,
(perhaps the public has before
heard of reform in connection with
Democracy, and whoop for
Grover Cleveland.
1t was necessary, apparently, for
the chairman on resolutions to
move that they be adopted, which
was done after a vigorous opposi-
ton by Geo. w. Strong, of Mihln,
who fails to see a savior in Cleve-
land, and is of the opinion that
"there are many Democrats in the
country as high above Cleveland as
the ridge-pole Of heaven is above
the mud-slIs Of hell"

NEXT Tuesday evening, weather
proving favorable, our new band
will give a street concert. Not
withstanding this will be its first
appearance, the TRIBUNE is con-
ident that the band will prove what
is claimed for 1.-THE equal to any
the city ever had.
THE Mineral Point Woolen Mills
are running smoothly and without
any buisterous pretentions under
the supervision of T. II. Robinson,
who is fast proving to be good
man for the place. About twenty
five hands are employed at the
present time.
]. r. HALL, of the Mineral Point
Bakery, has big lead on the claim
of catching the finest lot of trout
of any of our anglers this season.
The first of this week he tried his
luck in the vicinity of Boscobel
and returned home with over fifty
of the speckled beauties, none of
which was under eight inches in
length.
EASTER Sunday was not just
what it ought to be, in point of
weather, for the women folks to
make a successful display of millin-
cry and other attire. However,
there were some who could not
resist the temptation, and they to a
degree lightened the gloom and
tempered the chill of the day by
appearing in attractive outfits.
Mr.. THos. AUGUIN, than whom
no more respected or genial fellow
has come within our city limits,
turned his back on Newell, Iowa,
long enough to spend last Sunday
and Monday in our midst. Tom
has fairly good position, but is
not without a hankering to be
located in Mineral Point again. A
host of friends wish him back.
ARRANGEMENTS have been COM
pleted for the conducting of a
cheese box factory in this city by
the firm of Martin 81 Toay. This
is a new enterprise, and will likely
furnish employment for ten or a
dozen hands. Mr.. w. A. Smith,
the cooper, will superintend the
work. Already a carload of ma
terial for the work has been received.
ONE who wanted to be funny
rushed into the printing office the
other day and loudly exclaimed:
"Say, do you want fresh local?"
"Yes," was the reply, OF course.
"Well, Methuselah is deadl" But
upon being asked for his first name
the gatherer of fresh items was
non-plussed, and found that his
efforts at cuteness was spent in the
wrong direction.

J. j. HEALY, formerly of this
place, but who is now county Judge
of Edmunds county, South OAK,
met with heavy loss on Sunday,
the Sd inst, which his many friends
here will regret to learn. The fol-
lowing referring to the same is
CLEANED from the Ipswich Demo
crat: "The beautiful new resi-
dence of Judge Healy, in Court

stroyed by fire last Sunday afternoon.
The Judges law library of three
hundred volumes and all his furni.
ture was burned. A defective fue
is believed to have caused the fire,

it pours" seems to fit the Judges

"MIsTAKEs are liable to happen
in the best of families" is an old
and trite saying and the subject of
mistakes is treated by the Janesville
Republican in its issue of last week
in this pointed and concise manner
"If a doctor makes mistake he
buries it; if merchant makes a
mistake he never tells it; if lawyer
makes a mistake he crawls out of
it; but if an editor makes a mis-.
take, he puts it on large sheet of
paper for the world TO look AT, and
in every community there are cranks
who think they are the models of
wisdom, who occasionally discover
them and for a week keep their
jaws wagging about their grea ness
for astute wisdom"

THE first meeting of the new
council for business was held on
Monday evening last. Applications
for saloon license were acted on,
and a city clerk, street com
missioner, policeman, city attorney
and janitor were duly elected and
their salaries fixed. The result
can be learned by reading the
official minutes published in another
column. The salaries of clerk and
commissioner have each been raised
$50 for the year; the janitor is to
receive in addition to what he got
last year, so cents for every night
the council meets; and instead of
employing a. policeman for Satur-
days and Sundays only, the council
decided on having him on duty and
subject to their command all the
time, for which they agree to pay
$35 per month. In balloting for a
city clerk the aldermen were tied
on John COmmins and J. w. Horn,
and it fell to the mayor to decide in
favor of cage before beauty" The
TRIBUNE does not regard the
salaries as fixed by the new council
as any too high for the proper
rendering of service in these several
positions, but fails to discern where
in the council, which is five-sixths
Democratic, displayed ECONOMY"
and "reform," features which that
party SO loudly harp on and charges
it's opponent with disregarding.
THE Whitewater Register says a
ne ewspaper should be "a business

the community where the paper il

There can be no doubt that any

Honor, the mayor. But two Of the
same were properly filed out and
accompanied by city treasurer's re-
ceipt, those of John Kaufman aud
Anton Molltor. Others lacked per-
fection in form or the license fee,
and in consequence the council
could only agree to grant the same
when all requirements according to
law were properly carried out,
The council then proceeded, by
