School Buildings Multiplying.

The wisconsin Journal of Education.
New school buildings are multiply
ing in the state. Stone is being drawn
for the new high school building at
Stoughton; one is under way at Gin
tonville, to cost ten thousand; Elroy
has voted the same amount for erect
ing high school; a new four-room
building is contracted for at Els
worth; Whitewater will soon erect a
twenty thousand dollar building; Sank
City has just dedicated fine brick-ve-
neered high school, said to be very at
tractive and convenient. Beaver Dam
is now erecting a twenty thousand
dollar high school. The contract has
been let for building a new ward
school at Wausau; and one will soon
be commenced at Baraboo.

One of the remarkable features of
the Worlds Exposition will be series
of religious congresses from Aug. 25
through the month of September, 1898.
The chairman of the general commit
tee, Rev. John Henry Barrows, of Chi
cago, has associated with him mem
bers of sixteen different religious or
CARNATIONS. They have invited the
representatives of all the great historic
religions to confer together and to
show what light religion has to throw
on the great problems Of the age.
Their plan has met the approval of
Mr.. Gladstone, Cardinal Gibbons, the
poets Holmes and Whittier, Archbis-
hops Ireland and Ryan, Professor
Drummond, Professor Godet, of Swift
zerland; Rabbi Maybaum, of Berlin;
Justice Amer Ali, of Calcutta; Presi-
dent Washburn, of Robert College,
Constantinople; Bunyin Mantle, a
learned Buddhist, Of Japan, and scores
of the leading scholars of America
and Great Britain.

The Mazomanie Knitting company,
the only industry Of any magnitude
which the village of Mazomanie has,
sold it's machinery to Willard Brothers,
and they will remove it to Sioux City,
La. A steam laundry will be put in
the factory building by George Wight
man.-The Wisconsin State Journal.
It will be remembered that in 1888,
while the Mills tariff bill was before
congress, number of high-tax stock
holders of the Mazomanie Knitting
company made considerable capital
for the Republican party, by loudly
declaring that should that reform
measure become law it would prove
disastrous to their works, and throw
their laborers out of employment.
And now, Notwithstanding the in
creased "protection upon woods and
woolens, afforded by the Mckinley
law, they evidently do not find it prof
liable to continue business at the old
stand. 1t is greatly to the disadvan-
tage of any industrial institution for
its owners to profess that they can
not get along without help from the
government.

The Wisconsin agricultural expert
ment station has just issued an extern
sive bulletin showing the result of the
last years work on the sugar beet.
The Democrat has very high regard
for this station and for the very prac-
tical educated farmer, Prof. Henry
who has charge of it. In many dhec-
tions the work of the station has ac-
complished good and lasting results;
but altogether too much attention has
been given to the unsolved, and SEEM
ingly unsolvable problem, of profit
ably producing sugar in Wisconsin.
a few years ago Prof. Henry wanted
farmers to engage in the cultivation of
amber cane for this purpose; but, am
Der cane haying proved a failure, the
sugar beet has since been taken up
and bulletin number thirty, referred to
above, requests that there be eontin-
ued united effort until the sugar in
dustry is firmly established within the
border of the state. The officers OF
the station have never yet advanced
any reasons to show probability that
sugar can be produced as cheaply in
Wisconsin as it can be purchased in
the markets Of the world; and unless
there is such probability, it would bs
altogether wrong for our farmers Il
neglect those lines of husbandry il
which they can and do outstrip TIT

Some Startling Statistics.

The Christian Evangelist.
Judge Isaac Parker, of the y. S.
District Court, in his charge to the
grand jury at Fort Smith in February,
which is reproduced in the Fort Smith
Times, presents some statistics that
are truly startling. The number of
murders known to have been commit
ted in 1889, he gives as 1868. In
1890 the number had increased to
1920. In 1891, "the devil seemed
fully to get into his work." says the
Judge, and the number of murders
had ncreased to 1906, nearly double
the number committed in 1891 To
these figures add the undiscovered
crimes of the same kind, which Judge
Parker reckons as half as many more,
and we have in round numbers at
least 5000 murders committed in the
United States in the last year; the per-
centage of increase from year to year
far exceeding the percentage of in
crease of population. 1t is an appal-
ling record indeed, but there is an
other startling fact supplementary to
this-that of the 1920 murderers cred
tied to the year 1890, only 102 were
executed pursuant to law, while 1877
were lynched, and of the 1906 muir
derers of 1891, there were executed
but 1913, while 1875 were lynched. 1t
is a strange commentary upon the
administration of justice in this coun-
try, that of the 1916 murderers here
mentioned only $50 paid the penalty
of their crimes with death, lawfully or
otherwise, and that in both years the
number of lynchings exceeded the
number of legal executions. AS to
the reason why justice is so often de-
feated that the law presents little ter
ror to the would-be murderer, Judge
Parker submits the following: /. The
Indifference and incompetence of
courts, both trial and appellate. 2.
The general prevalence of perjury
which is so often invoked to cheat JUS
tice. 3. The direct and indirect use
of corrupting influence, such as money,
social power, or other agencies equally
as strong and corrupting. 4. The
sickly sentimentality which exists in
favor of the man who has redeemed his
hands with innocent human blood, so
that persons possessing it waste all
their sympathy on the criminal, and
have none for his innocent victim, and
use all their power and influence for
the guilty in covering up his crime, or
shielding him from merited punish
ment. 5. And above all, the indiff-
erence of the people themselves to the
terrible crimes which menace the
peace of every household in the land"

Here is something reasonable, and

constant pressure be applied to these
nerves, the muscles are paralyzed.

This is why "Blood Purifiers" give only
temporary relief. Certain nerves, he has
found, control the action of the stomach,

Harrison VS. Quay.

The differences between the Harri-
son wing and the Quay wing of the
Republican party seem to be wholly
lrreconciable. In spite Of all that
can be done in lhe interest of har.
mony the Quay men continue to
sneer at the Harrison people as
''pious frauds and "can,ing humbugs"
while Mr.. Harrison and his friends
make no secret of their entire disap.
proval of all forms OF Quayism. 1t
is truly deplorable condition of
affairs and causes General Reeder a
great deal of anxiety. He realizes
that Pennsylvania with her big ma.
jority must take care Of herself and
he understands the feeling among the
working classes in the State we'll
enough to know that she wants a
great deal Of taking care of. The
new ballot law enables the employees
OF protected industries to express their
honest convictions of the Tariff at the
polls. The working men of Penn.
sylvania and the farmers of the State
are not saying much, but they will
surely be heard from on election day
In way that will make old fashioned
majorities appear fabulous. Under
such circumstances 1t would be a
great relief to the Chairman of the
Republican State Committee if the
Harrison howlers would be kind
enough to let Quay alone. But they
won't. The Senator did gather the
doodle and he did elect Harnsor
with 1t, beyond all question. 1t i:
true, they have the Presidents owr
authority for the statement that "the
Lord did it" But the President j.
certainly mistaken. The tesnmon,
is entirely the other way. As to the
Wanamaker contribution that gentle
man himself has testihed. 81 tolG
Quay would undertake to raise the
money and the Manufacturers
Club also testifes through its organ
that 1t was due to Quay's efforts tha,
their people contributed. 1t won't dc
then to say II was ''the Lord" who
did it, and it is entirely unfair to de
prive Mr.. Quay of credit for the re
suit of his characteristic work. Be
sides the sound sense and good judg
ment OF the people generally has lee
them long since to the conclusion
that Mr.. Harrison's election was ell
tlrely the result of practical politics
Just as his nomination was. 1t il
rank blasphemy to intimate that tn,
Lord has anything to do with thes,
things And looking at the trouble
from the orsside as an impartial OBJ
server we are constrained to say tina
to give the Pennsylvania Senator hi
due, ne did elect Harrison and it i.
unjust now to pretend that he ha'
nothing to do with it.

trast with Mr.. Harrisons snobbery 10

Mr.. Cleveland showed her marked

political recognition he accorded our

that received from Republican
predecessors. And these are the
reasons that the masses of my race

what will be used at the election next
month. The names are fictitious, and
there are some offices on it that will
not be voted for this fall in this county,
but it illustrates the method oil voting SO
clearly that any one who will take the
pains to examine it, and read the ms
tructions along side of it, will have no
trouble to know how to vote the
straight Democratic ticket. On the
Columbia County ballot none Of
the Offices below Congress except Rep,
resentatives will appear.
We have gone to some trouble and
expense to furnish this information to
our readers, and We believe that il
will be appreciated, as many other,

seeing the form of the ballot unit

A farmer ought to consider how
this Tariff Of Mckinley works against
him. 1t cuts off competition in farm
ing implements here. And the manu-
facturer who sends horse rake into
the South American market and sells
it for $40 charges S25 for it here.
The Cumming feed cutter is sold in
South America for 500 and here for
500. The Clipper cutter is sold in
South America for $3.50 and here for
SIS. The Ann Arbor cutter No. is
sold in South America for $I6 and
'lere for $aS. And No. is sold in
South America for $40. These are a
few Of the frauds the Mckinley tariff
practices on the farmer.

The one producer in the United
States who year after year always has
a surplus is the farmer. His surplus
product is of no benefit to him unless
he can exchange it for something that
he needs. Whatever hinders the free
and easy exchange of commodities is
an injury to the farmer. The Tariff
levied for the protection of manufac-
lures is an injury to him. 1t taxes
him on everything he wears, on every
article of household use, on all the
implements and machinery of his farm
and on the!clothing of his wife and chill.
dren. And it shuts the markets!of the
world against him. Every farmer in
the land should vote against the Re-
publican tariff.

AS the cool winds of Autumn begin
to whistle through the shoddy,made

him an idea Of the cold comfort his

The American laboring man has
but one thing to sell, viz. his labor.
If we ''protect" him we must prevent
competition by foreigners who would
sell the same commodity in this
market. TO protect him we must in
sure home market for American
labor The American laborer and
mechanic does not sell what he
produces in the mine and the shops
and the factories. He simply sells
his labor. To put duty on his pro.
duct cannot protect him. Therefore
the Mckinley bill cannot help him.
1t only makes articles Of necessity
and of comfort dearer and so makes
life harder to live for him. The
only way the Mckinley bill could
help the laborer would be to levy a
tariff tax on the commodity he sells
namely labor. But labor is on the
free list.
The laborer who votes the Republican
ticket, is simply voting to pay higher
taxes for the benefit OF capitalists.
