THE fight in the Eighth congressional
district which is to be held to-day is a
bitter ole. The contestants are Hudd of
Brown and Barnes of Outagamie. The
row began in Portage county where, it is
said, Hudd had majority of the dele
gates from the primaries AZ the con-
vention, however, Barnes delegates were
chosen and it is said money was used to
effect this purpose. Barnes denies that
money was used oorruptly. A number
OF the delegates were Polanders and
Barnes explains that they promised Hudd
once and himself twice. The controversy
must be far from pleasing to the people
of this nationally and will doubtless re-
suit in that nationally refusing to sup
port either candidate through whose
agency they have obtained such unpleas-
ant notoriety.
The outcome of the convention may be
the selection of new man and in view
of the bitter feelings aroused this is per-
haps the best way out of the difficulty.
Barnes seems to have the advantage but
unless the charges made against him can
be successfully refuted his nomination,
as we'll as that OF Hudd's would seem to
be bad policy.
BARNES came out with an open letter
Wednesday Ia which he disclaims having
made certain charges against Judge Cote
but throws no light on the charge that
the Polanders vote is purchasable.

CHOIl ERA

Two more ships have reached New York
from Hamburg bringing the cholera with
them. The Rugia lost five steerage pas
sengers and had five still afflicted with
disease. The Normannia lost five pa.
tents. Both boats are IN quarantine.
When it was discovered that cholera had
broken out the passengers were seized
with panic and.those of the Storage be-
came helpless with fear.
The cabin passengers on the Norman
MIA became terror stricken when they dis
covered they had to remain on board the
ship in which the plague was They
were removed to Hoffman Island and felt
considerably relieved. There are num-
Der of prominent people among them.
Considerable indignation is felt at the
action of the Hamburg line in shipping
emigrants from infected districts, after
announcing that it would be discontinue
ed.
New cases are Develop ng on both the
Rugia and Normannia, three on each
boat. The feeling of alarm in New York
Is quite intense although no case of
cholera on land is yet reported. Several
kilograms were sent from the Normannia
for transmission from Hoboken but the
operators refused 10 receive them and
forcibly elected the man who brought
them. A telephone line will be run to
the detained boats so that communica-
ton may be had with land. People are
fleeing from Staten Island fearing an out
break of cholera there and in such an
event quarantine thus preventing de-
parture from the island.

TINS is how Ogden of The Amigo Re
publican speaks of "yile contemporary"
In Merrill:
No woman, who respects herself or her
friends, ever speaks to him; the men spit
at him; the boys guy him; the dogs smell
OF binl, and a stranger would swear, to
see hin, that he Is corner post or a
bunch of stale vegetables, SMELL Why
yes, why shouldn't he? His mind, his
body and his habits are so putrid that
even saloon buns feel the degradation
ofhis presence. This is the human vul-
;ture who attempts to criticise the acts of
others. May God pity the fool. He needs
1t. as he is beyond the pity of humaity
Ogden is entitled to place on The
Arizona Kicker. These little journals
tic amenities are little too spicy for
good digestion.

OPERA HOUSE.

Prof. Mr.. Edwin Tanner, the talented
young actor who will be seen at the Opera
House next Friday and Saturday it is
said with one exception he is the first to
accomplish with thorough satisfaction, the
dual character SO prominent in the great
play of DR.. Jekyil and Mr.. Hyde. Mr..
Tanner in the scene between Mr.. Hyde
and DIR. Langon. where the tedious crea-
ture Mr.. Hyde in his snarling wolfish
speech, suddenly passes his claw like
hands ever his hidious face, when in
stantiy appears the true character of the
quiet sad-faced DIR. Jekyll, so complete is
the change it cannot be described. it must
be seen to be appreciated. The late.
John Mccullough in speaking of Mr..
Tanner, Gays: Mr.. Tanner is an actor
who is thorough student of the sublime
art which he processes, he holds the
minor mp to nature and having surround
ed himself with capable company the
public may feel assured that the great
drama DIR. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde will be
faultlessly presented with all the beauti-
full scenery, wardrobe and stage effects
used in the original production"

THE democratic party has no ambig-
nifty to explain away in the platform it
presents to the people of the country this
fall. 1t means equal rights TO all people
no matter what their employment or sta
ton in life. The policy of taxing one set
of people for the benefit of another is
wrong. The plea that it is ultimately
beneficial to all classes must be sustained
by facts which are indisputable. Any
thing which runs counter to human ex-
perience and human intelligence must
have in Its favor preponderance of argu-
ment sufficient to make the worse appear
the better reason.

o. E. WELLS, our present states uperin-
tendent will probably bear the brunt of
personal opposition to the democratic
state ticket nominated last week. Ever
since he determined to correct long stand
ing abuses in the management of the
state university he has been subjected to
criticism nothing short of persecution.
And still Wells and O'Connor are the
only state officers who challenged admir-
alton because Of their fearless though
just acts. But the republicans could not
stand any sort OF criticism upon the state
university no matter how proper it might
be, SO to remove if possible the edge of
the criticism they began a systematic viii
fication of the character and qualification
of the man who first directed public at
tention to the glazing Irregularities IN
matters pertaining to the university.
1t is however unnecessary to state that
his maligners argued from data drawn
wholly from their Imagination and with
out exception they were in no position to
Judge Of the merits or dement's of the
superintendent. The action of the repub-
lican press would be matter OF little
solicitude were it not for the fact that
by constant iteration of charges of inca
pacity many people have been led to be-
lieve that there is truth in the assevera-
tions. The writer is no partisan of Wells,
in fact he was predjudiced 10 some ex-
tent against him but he makes these
claims for the present incumbent which
he calls upon republican papers to refute
by furnishing other than distorted ia cts
and buncombe arguments or through
silence to tacitly admit having been
actuated by spite in their actions towards
Wells.
First, that Mr.. Wells has devoted a
larger amount of personal attention to
the duties of his Office than any of his
predecessors and thereby has advanced
the cause of popular education to a
marked degree; second, that he thorough
ly enjoys the confidence of the county
superintendent whose relations to the
department are of the closest kind, and
that through his bipartisan and able adj
| ministratlon he has gained the respect
and good will of the prominent teachers
of the state. He is not only popular
superintendent but he has gained his
popularity in the face of strong opposi-
ton. Either disprove the above asser-
tions or stand rebuked we freebooter re-
publican journalists.
Wells may be trihe too impetuous in
roofing out abuses in the different
branches of the school system of the state
but whether he directs attention to the
common school, the normal school OF the
university his criticisms indicate a clear
perception of aims of elemen tary and
higher education. Without doubt Wis
consin needed just such man to stir up
educational circles, which, though in no
danger of staghatIon, were evertheless
showing signs of being regulated too
much by musty traditions.

The Grand Canon of the Colorado
River in Arizona, is now for the first
time easily accessible to tourists A
regular stage line has been establish
ed from Flagstaff, Arizona, on the At
lantic & Pacific Railroad, making the
trip from Flagstaff to the most inpos-
ing part of the Canon in less than IL
hours. The stage fare for the round
trip is only $1,000, and meals and
comfortable lodgings are provided
throughout the trip at a reasonable
price. The view of the Grand Canon
afforded at the terminus of the stage
route is the most stupendous panora-
ma known in nature. Thera is also a
trial at this point leading down the
Canon wall, more than 5000 feet YER
tically to the river below. The descent
of the trail is grander experience
than climbing the Alps, for in the bot
tom of this terrific and sublime chasm
are hundreds of mountains greater
than any of the Alpine range.
