The Omaha is laying about three
miles of new steel rail east Of this
place.
Ed Meixell of CerescO. had to run
his team distance Of three miles to
get out of the track of the cyclone
that passed over the southern part of
this country.last week.
A brother and family of Z. Wing ar
rived here from Michigan on Tuesday
They came all the way by team and
were four weeks on the way. They
were in the cyclone at Austin and
came very near losing their lives. For
the present they are stopping with
Mrs. Barker on her farm.
What might have been fatal acct
dent to Mrs. Tolliff and little daugh-
ter last Sunday .on their way home
from church, by the cart tipping over
throwing them out, dragging the lit
tie girl a distance, turns out, after
thorough investigation, the child was
scratched about the face, Mrs. Tolliff
had one finger put out of place and
both suffered somewhat from the
shock, and no bones were broken The
accident happened by the cart strik-
ing stump while turning a corner.
1t was narrow escape.

There are also bills passed by the
pending in the Senate to put
cotton, binding Irvine, tin plate and
cad ore on the free list, but | do
not think they will be passed at
the next session. | shall not vote
for them. If the Democratic party
represented anything but what is
bad, if it did not lack moral senti-
ment, it might remain in power,
But any power without character
or principle and supported by the
solid South, New York and Chi
cago is not likely to last long. I
think that Tammany Hall infu-
ence will be felt at the White
House and aid in retiring the
Democrats from power four years

It is silly to talk ola party being
dead that cast over 100000 votes

NO REPUTATION OF PROTECTION.

Tie Hon. Richard i. PettigreW,
United States Senator from South
Dakota, said in a recent public
interview: Il do not think the
election Of Cleveland means a refu-
tation of protection, nor as the
Democrats claim, that the Repub-
lican party is dead. They will
find that the Republican party
will be very much alive for many
years to come, and that protection
will survive I think good many
Democrats are in favor of protec-
ton in some form. | do not be-
lieve they will dare pass any meas
ure looking to free trade. ANY
party that undertakes to abolish
protection will soon go out of
power. Protection has resulted in
prosperity for the farmers in the
Weat, and especially in the two
Dakotas. They are great wool
raising states, the product amount
ing to over 100000 pounds year
ly. A bill is pending in the
Senate providing for free wool.
If that should be passed it would
cripple, if not ruin, wool growers.
Should an attempt be made, which
is not probable, to pass it at the
coming session Of congress, | shall
offer an amendment to put all
wooden goods on the free list.

WHY DO THEY COTE?
Thousands of immigrants come

Thousands of immigrants come
to the United States every year.
Why do you think they come
here? In order to earn starvation
wages, to be deprived of their
earnings by tariff monopolists,
TO be taxed for the benefit of the
"robber barrons?"
No; they come here because eX-
perience at home, under the slavery
of the European wage system, has
taught them that only in this coun-
try of high wages and prosperity,
Of contentment and protection, is
the laborer worthy Of his hire.
Only in this land Of taxes" has
he an adequate scope for the exer-
else of the faculties with which
nature has blessed him; only here
can he own his own home, furnish
it in comfort and educate his chill
dren to be good and patriotic
citizens.
immigration is thus the best
possible tribute to the benefits Of
protection, a mute but eloquent
index Of American progress under
the American system.
Immigrants did not flock here in
free trade periods. They remained
in their own countries, because the
pauper standard Of wages which
free trade entails was not a suffici-
emily strong inducement to bring
them here Pauper wages can be
earned just as we'll at home as
abroad.
When protection again tri-
umphed, when our mills and fac
tories again hummed with life ano
action, when plenty again blessed
the land, then the masses of
Europe again knocked at our door
and asked US to share with them
our abundance.
immigration we do not advocate
Restrict it if you please, prohibit ii
if you can. But never lose sight
of the fact that immigration would
not trouble us if we we're poor.
When free trade begins the gates
of Castle Garden will swing out
ward instead of inward. Under
that system immigration stops.
Emigration takes its place.-Cen-
trail Wisconsin.

WISCONSIN FAVORED BY NATURE.

Willis L. Moore, Director of the
Wisconsin Weather Service, speaks
as follows about the climate of
Wisconsin:
The climate of Wisconsin is one
of the most healthful in the United
States. With an annual rainfall
sufficient to give the state high
rank in agriculture, its atmosphere
is still so dry and free from disease
breeding germs that our mortality
record is as low as the lowest, in
some cases the death rate not being
over one-half what it is in southern
and eastern states. In the east we
have heard people refor to the air
OF Wisconsin as vapor-laden from
the lakes. Nothing can be further
from the truth. The general east
erly movement Of all air carries
the ascending vapors from Lake
Michigan to the more easterly
states, and the absolute humidity
of Wisconsin is but a shade
greater than Minnesota and the
. Dakotas.
The Weather Bureau records for
ten years, from 1876 to 1886, for
January, show an average of o8
of a grain Of vapor per cubic foot
of air in Wisconsin, 10 grain in
Colorado, Ia in Ohio, II in
Virginia and SO in the southern
half of all the Gulf States. The
same record for July, is, Colorado
SO grains, Wisconsin S., Ohio
6.5, Virginia, Missouri and Ten
nessee, 70; South Atlantic and
Gulf States 8 to 9 grains. The
record of Wisconsin in this respect
should be fully understood.
We all understand the vitalizing
influence of electricity on animal
life. The human body is a much
better conductor than dry air, and
when existing in such air not only
retains the electricity received from
the earth, but continually gathers
it from the atmosphere, thus invig-
Grating the muscles, Strengthening
the constitution and rendering the
physical system almost impregna-
bic to the microbes of disease.
When the atmosphere is heavily
charged with moisture it becomes
better conductor than thahuman
body, and the body rapidly ~looses
this tonic force. The low mortal
| ity of the north central states is
sometimes attributed to the com
paratively thin population, but it is
more reasonable to give the credit
to the atmospheric conditions of
these states. If the population
should become as dense as in the
Atlantic Coast States, there is no
reason to believe that the death
rate will ever become as high as
in the latter states. The cool, dry,
invigorating air of Wisconsin is
one of the most munihcent bless
ings of nature.

President Harrison's Message.

The Presidents message gives
comprehensive review of public
governmental affairs for the past
year, and during the four years of
the Harrison administration. He
sums up briefly and tersely the
extraordinary progress the country
has made in all that pertains to art,
wealth., and individual prosperity.
BY carefully compiled statistics
he gives proof Of the commercial
and individual prosperity of the
nation. He believes and accentu-
ates that belief that the better con-
ditions Of our Workingmen are due
% the policy of protection.
Since March 4, 1850, the govern
nent has reduced the public debt
by $4,000 900 in round numbers,
saving an annual interest charge
Of nearly SI2,ooo,ooo. The reve-
nue. of the government has been
reduced by $50, 900, 900. The esti-
mated surplus for the current year
ending June 80, 1898, is a little
over S32,oOo,OoO. This estimate,
however, is based on the continu-
ance of the condition of affairs
under the policy which has been
maintained by the present admin
istration. 1t may, and is likely to
be materially affected by the pros
pect Of extensive changes soon to
be made in the tariff. A consider
able diminution of imports will
occur, it is reasonable to expect,
while the country is waiting for
such changes and uncertain as to
their nature and extent.
Among the things of vital inter
est to the people he touches upon
are the Cholera; immigration; the
Indian question; Agricultural bu-
reau; protection of r. R. employees
and it is with no uncertain sound
he utters a note of warning against
the violence and oppression shown
the black man.
The message is a readable and
manly resume of his views and
worthy of a careful perusal by
every intelligent citizen.
In this final message" to the
people he has strengthened him
self in the esteem of all all loyal,
intelligent Americans. His devo-
ton to what he considers the best
interests of his country is beyond
question. His record may we'll be
written on velIum paper in letters
Of shining gold"
In the army of the nations de-
tenders, in the senate chamber, in
the white house as Chief Execu-
tive of the nation, and in the role
of a simple, unofficial citizen of
the United States he has been the
same simple, just, courageous and
patriotic man, one Of the people
who has won and will retain the
reverent respect Of all classes.

There is a great deal of real
distress among English farmers.
They have lived under the free
trade policy in its full development
tor about fifty years, and yet the
other day, an important meeting,
composed of farmers, in the North
Nottinigha m district, solemnly
condemned free trade, as largely,
II not entirely, contributory to
their woes. At a farmers meeting
IN Derbysfrire resolutions were
passed dec laring that English
farmers can't make living under
tree trade and they demanded a
protective duty on wheat. And
SO runs the tendency. These
farmers have all the cheap free
trade goods they want, but some
how the system hasn't done any
thing. 10 help them.-Ex:

HONORS FOR HON. c. M. WEBB.

We are glad to note that nomi-
nation papers are being circulated
in the interest of our esteemed
townsman and Judge, Chas. NJ.
Webb, for him to become a candi-
date for the office of Justice Of the
Supreme Court, Chief Justice Lyon,
whose term of office expires Jan.
Ist, 1894, has declined to be
a candidate for reelection, and
consequently the people of Wis
consln will be called upon to elect
an associate Justice next April.
Justice Orion, by seniority, will be
advanced to Chief Justice. The
many friends of Charles M. Webb,
Circuit Judge of the Seventh Cir
cult, comprising the counties of
Portage, Waupaca, Waushara and
Wood, recognizing in him one of
the ablest jurists in Wisconsin, and
his circuit being located in por-
ton Of Wisconsin, never having
been represented upon the Supreme
bench, deem it peculiarly appro-
pirate that the honor should be
conferred upon him. At home
the desire is unanimous for his
election. All over the state he
stands high in the estimation of
the legal fraternity, and in the
circuit over which he presides
there is but one opinion, and that
is, he IS entitled to and worthy of
the honor.

THE GREATEST ISSUE.

Is the Presidency to be Bought and will

New York World.
The greatest issue Of the campaign is
developing with rapidity that is most
momentous. The technicalities of tar
if discussion are giving way to broader
ana higher ethical considerations.
Mr.. Macy eagh and Mr.. Schurz have
helped in bringing this view of the cam
paign to the front. Is the Presidency to
be bought? Is money to rule? Is the
system which results in stupenduous eff
forts for corruption and which transforms
men who are honest in the ordinary rela-
tons Of life into enemies Of political viz
tue and Of the fundamental institutions of
our Government to be continued?
This is what the people are contend
ing over. The present robber tariff has
enriched few men so much, has added
so greatly to the normal profits of their
business, that they are able and anxious
to spend millions for the maintenance of
laws of which they are the benefciaries.
The Pittsburgh Dispatch admits this in
the following pregnant sentence;
Next week the goodly sum already at
their (the national committee's) disposal
will be swelled by q round million of
good, crisp dollars, which can be used to
great advantage during the latter days OF
the campaign and especially on the last
election day. This big sum is the do
nation of protected manufacturers. II

tempt to carry the State for Harrison
There is no concealment of their pur.
