DID you ever read book entitled
"Peck's Bad Boy and his Pa" and do
You remember how the small boy ran
his pal into the nest of hornets and
how pa" called loudly aud enthusi-
astically upon bis sainled maiden
..Belen Damnation?' We wonder if
Gov. Peck isn't in the same predica-
ment and whether he isn't invoking
the aid OF that same daughter of Venus.
The bad Boy" tricks are laughable
when played upon his pa, )" but when
it comes to perpetrating them upon the
State of Wisconsin, the public is not so
willing to smile. The Gov. has found
his out to his sorrow, How sober he
must have looked when he told Wall to
write another call for special session
of the Legislature.

On another page of this paper will be
found the bomb that created such havoc
in the democratic camp-Peck's Re-
port. The democrats have squirmed
and lodged, explained and bull-dozed,
but the report still stands like Banquo's
ghost, a grim spectre that PERSISTS in
occupying his appointed place. Read
it. 1t is quite interesting-that is If
YOU are not democratic candidate.
II shows the awkward, ridiculous and
untcnable positionin which the calamity
crieys and their followers have placed
themselves. The great puzzle now is,
how to get out. Gentlemen, YOU can

The state legislature Is again called
to meet in special session at Madison
next Monday. The democratic leaders
have bot little faith in or use for leg
islature. since it is convened for the sole
purpose of ratifying, not making an
apportionment. Boss Wall has again
called Mr.. Anderson to his assistance,
and he is busy at work getting out a
new apportionment. The Boss has no
use for a legislature. The getter-up of
the two gerrymanders that have been
ousted by the Supreme Court is not a
member of Legislature, and why in the
name of common sense he is employed,
no one knows. He las certainly been
an expensive luxury so far. One hum
dred an thirty three persons are elected
by the people of this state to attend to
legislative business. Why not let them
get together and do it. The constitu-
ton says: The people of the state of
Wisconsin represented in Senate and
Assembly do enact as follows If the
legislature does nothing but assemble
to ratify Anderson's bill, where do the
the people come in. To hear the dem
cratic leaders talk, one would think
'the people, was their only thought,
but when the democratic leaders act,
"the people" don't seem to be in it. Is
this what IS meant by "Reform?n

1T gives US pleasure TO note that A.
w. Bell, Esq. who was for so long a
time a leading citizen Of this county, is
placed on the the Milwaukee Co. ticket
for the office OF District Attorney. Mr..
Bell was, until he moYed to Milwaukee,
a prominent figure at court and his
success at the bar demonstrated the
fact that ne stands high in his profess
sion. He was also prominent figure
in all republican conventions and
yielded strong political influence. He
is a man of untiring industry who
knows how to apply himself severely to
his work. aud his cases here were all
well prepared aud ably presented.
His nomination is a good one, and Mil
waukee County may rest assured that
when her interests are placed in Mr..
Bells hands, that they will be carefully
looked after, and the office of District
Attorney will be VERY creditably and
satisfactorily filled There is no reason
why every republican in the county
should not use his influence and cast
his ballot in Mr.. Bells favor.

JUDGE WINsLow, of the Supreme
Court gives a dissenting opinion in the
late gerrymander case. 1t is long, very
long. and is printed in full in the Mil
waukee Journal. Since there are four
other Judges On the Supreme bench, all
of them older both in judicial experience
and legal practice, and who unequivo-
oaliy concur in setting aside the late
apportionment it does seem as if Judge
Wnslow, the youngest man and latest
appointment by Gov. Peck, is in ex-
treme haste to show his great loyalty
20 the administration and the demo-
cratic party. The Judges opinion
hinges so largely on the point that his
brother Judges erred in allowing the
case to be brought and tried in opposi-
ton TO the wishes and opinions of the
Attorney General. With the dispo-
sjtion to bossism and TO generally
ignore the rights of the people, so en-
phaticaliy and unblushingly shown in
the late gerrymander, backed by the
same disposition. similarly shown by
the latest judicial appointment and the
Attorney General, it will only need a
little longer continuance in Office to fit
few Of the democrats for the pisition
of confidential admirers to the Car O.
Russia.

FRUIT DISTRIBUTION.
Comments on the Plan Proposed by
William II. Mills.
fTos Anceles Daily Times Octoher l etb7

tLos Angeles Daily Times. October 6th.1
1t is to be hoped that the project of fruit
distribution which William 81. Mills of
the Southern Pacific has advanced, and
which he advocated before the State
Board of Trade last Tuesday, may be
carried into effect. And if any man is
capable of promoting this good work,
Mr.. Mills, in his double capacity Of a
public-spirlted citizen and a trusted ad-
wiser of the railroad company, ought to
be that man. The proposition is to estab-
llsh such an equitable scale of freight tar
ifs as will allow the distribution OF fruit
in small or large cOnsignments all along
a trunk line with just as much advantage
as to ship in large consignments to an
Eastern terminal point. For example, it
ought to be feasible to drop off any part
! OF carload desired at any intermediate
peint this side of Kansas City, st. Louis
or Chicago, instead of shipping the entire
carload to the trade center and then have
a part of it shipped back along the same
line To supply the jobbers. Not only
would the consignor save the expense of
double shipment if the new system could
be inaGgurated, but our fruit men would
be brought into direct communication
with jObbers all over the country, in
stead Of being obliged to deal through
| the wholesale agent or consignee in
the larger cities. This would make Los
Angeles real distributor instead of
Chicago, st. Louis or other Eastern focal
point. 1t would magnify our importance
commercially, save to cur producers a
part of the extra commissions paid the
wholesalers of the East, and cheapen the
price OF fruit somewhat for the consumer.
All this would amount to great stimulus
to the fruit industry in this State, as it
could not fail to increase the demand for
our fruits and make fruit-growing more
remunerative.
A better project for booming California
could hardly be suggested, and we be-
lieve that in booming the State the great
railroad companies would come in for
their full share of the reward. In one of
his lately published letters, Mr.. Hunt
| ington urged the farmers of California to
bid for cheaper railroad freights by in
creasing the quantity of their export
products. Here is a chance for Mr..
Huntington, the local dealers and the
producers to work together to that end.
If Mr.. Huntington will adopt the plan
proposed by Mr.. Mills he will see how
soon the truit-grOwers of this State will
come up to his requirements by doubling
the tonnage of freight which they give
him.

MILLARD FILLMORE
How O New York WooI-Carder Be
came President.

came President.
There came a travelling preacher into
Western New York State a good MANY
years ago when Thomas Jefferson was
President, and III one of his sermons he
told the uncultured fathers and mothers
who gathered in little log cabin school
house to near him, that it was quite nos
sible that some of them were the parents
OF a son who might some day himself
hold the office which Jefferson then exer-
cised. 1t was such preaching as this that
revealed TO the people of that day in part
what this republic Is, and how it is possi-
bic in it for even the humblest child to
look forward to posts of honor and inf1u-
ence.
OF all that company who heard this
preacher probably none would have been
regarded as less likely ever to become
President than bare-tOoted little fellow
who sat upon one of the benches and list
ened quite eagerly to the sermon of the
preacher. For this little chap was absO-
lutely poor. 1t did not seem likely that
he would be able to get so much school
ing as would serve him III the trade for
which he was designed. He could only
look forward, seemingly, to a life of
drudgery. He was sure to be appren-
ticed either to some farmer or some tan
ner in that vicinity in the expectation.
that he would learn either to become a
iourneyman or farmers help.
The words which this little fellow heard
from the preacher made great impress
sion on his miud. He did not believe
that it would ever be possible for him to
be President, but he was shrewd enough
to see that If any boy might hope to Gain
that honor, certainly SO humble a chaD
as he might also hope to better his condi-
tion.
When he was in his teens the boy was
apprenticed to a wool-carder, and it was
believed that he would make that his
business for life. He was intelligent. in
dustrious and his habits were very good.
so that after he served his apprenticeship
and became a journeyman. some OF those
who knew him thought that be might
some day do so well as himself to control
little business Of this sort. But those
things which the preacher had said were
constantly in his mind, so that he not
only did his duties as wool-earder
well, but he spent his spare hours in
reading and in study. Thus he taught
himself many things which other lads
more fortunate than he were able to learn
in the schools.
| One day this wool-carder, being now
almost man in years, happened to stray
into a courtroom, and there ne heard a
1 lawyer pleading case before Jury, and
then he said to himself (for he afterward
/ told the story TO gentleman who re-
| peated it to the writer); "Ah, this is the
| way for me to get along. l viii get law
