The following good reading is clipped
from the Madison journal.
There seems to be but one duty foI
the people to perform in the matter Of
the latest gerry maDder work achieved
by the democratic law breakers (who
have Just completed a special session of
the " isconsin legislature with the pass
age of an apportiOnment law that is in
every particular. except one. quite as
outrageous as the late gerrymander)
and that is TO again carry the matter
into the courts. L. will not do 20 passi-
vey submit to the high handed ROBBERY
OF the people attempted IN this latest
gerrymander act. The supreme court
has already laid down certain rules and
sharply marked out the way in which
an appointment must be made IN
order that it shall conform To- the letter
and spirit of the constitution. There is
no pretense on the part of the demo
cratic schemers that the Injunction OF
the high tribunal has been regarded,
except in this single particular OF not
breaking county lines in the formation
of assembly districts. All the strong
and vigorous and wholesome doctrine
laid down BY the court in the matter of
appor;ionment. equality of population
and in making compact districts of con-
tiguous territory, was absolutely dis
regarded BY the Performers"
1t is by many believed that under the
new gerrymander there is good chance
of republicans carrying the legislature.
Hence from a partisan standpoint pure
ly there is no necessity for any great
excitement in republican circles over
the matter But this is not partisan
question 1t Is one that goes TO the
integrity of the constitution and the
power of the supreme court. II it shall
be admitted. even inferen,ially, that by
indirection the legislature may disregard
the constitutional requirements in this
vital matter, then and there Is left a
loOphole for the utter dIsregarding Of
the court rules and constitutional re
quirements, and by the time the next
is made the matter pop
ulation and eompactness of the districts
will be as utterly sacrificed so the greed
of partisans and the schemes OF sehemers
as it is possible to be.
Let the people fight out this question
fairly now and to the end Let the
democratic schemers be taught to re-
spect the voice of the people, the great
charter of their political rights and the
mandates OF the courts.

chairman by the national committee
was an excellent thing for the republi-

democratic abuse. and he expects to

Senator Hale, sounded the keynote Of
the campaign in brilliant speech in

difference between the republican policy

CROP BULLETIN

WEEK ENDING TUESDAY. JULY 5th. 1892
Bulletin No. IS. The rainfall has
been about normal and the temperature
each day has averaged about four de-
grees below.
Hay is ready 10 cut. With Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday clear. many fields
are sufficiently dry TO cut. but at the
same time all available force will be
put at the cultivation of corn and pota-
tees. as the soil has been so wet that
the first hoeing OF this crop is
not complete. If the Iow barometer
now in the northwest states pass
over Wisconsin Wednesday with
out heavy rainfall, the cultivation of
corn and potatoes will % % be finished
and haying be the rule before the end
of the week. So far it has extended
over Montana and the Dako'as without
causing even cloudiness, and it is
reasonable, therefore, to expect that
when it gets over Wisconsin to-
morrow it will not cause snythlng more
serious than light local showers. Hsc,
much needed cultivation in clearing out
the heavy growth of weeds can be done.
Wheat and rye are headed out, and
oats beginning to head; all seems to
promise well.
There has been a steady deterioration
of fruit prospects during he past three
weeks; considerable blight is reported.
Although great quantities of hay
have been lost during the past three
weeks by the flooding of creek and
river meadows. if the weather now
becomes favorable for the curing of
hay, the growth on upands is so heavy
that the total yield will be large.
On marshes where drainage is not
good the cranberry vines have been
much injured.
The planting of tobacco is not COM
plete, but most plants will probably be
set this week.
Some rotting of potatoes is reported
from Brown and Clark Cos.
Some damage has been caused by
hail in northern part of Washington

Owing to the wet season, there is dan.
ger of an epidemic of some kind in our
village. The ones of which we ought
to be- most fearful are malaria and
dvsentery. All diseases are supposed
to be caused by some foreign substance
entering the human system that is al
ready predisposed to its influence for
some reason. Epidemi;s are due to
the action OF some miasm, micro-organ-
ism, microbe, or bacteria. DecaYing
plant and animal matter in heat and
moisture furnishes the most favorable
field for their growth and multiplied
lion. The more bacteria the more
disease. just such a condition exists
now. Orr cellars filled with water over
the vegetables and the summer sun
coming out strong and bright after
having been clouded for two months
is a fit condition for the generation of
any disease germ that may be intro
duced Do the people know these
things ? If they do, what are they
doing to prevent the possible misery
that may arise? Some have removed
the water from their cellars so many
times that they are discouraged and be-
lieve it does no good. 1t does good
just the same by removing and prevent
ing decaying matter in the cellars, a
crisis at hand, what's TO be done? 1t
is this Wash the cellar walls and
drain as often as it fills. Allow the
sunshine to get in at the windows.

smells Burn the brush and drift-wood
and old rags and all sources Of filth
Even wood sheds may be n source of
filth which can pc easily remeded by

There are certain drugs which are USE
ful in destroying the germs If disease
tina; may lurk about our homes ready
to seIze our children and destroy their
lives The following dsinfectants are
good Carbolic acid, copperas, bichlor-
ide of mercury, Condy's fluid, but the
best of all is chloride of lime because it
can be used without the advice Of a
physician and is very effective when
used according to the following di-
lections;-" Chloride of Lime, ounces;
water, gallon. Use a quantity sufli-
cient that the foul odor may be oyer
come and all parts of the ground and
buildings to be disinfected may have

The burning of sulphur in tightly closed
rooms is another good means of purify,

THE DRINK HABIT.

THE DRINK HABIT
A true story runs this way: Disgust
ed with the late hours and continued
drunken sprees of her husband. after
good resolutions and pledges. and ad-
vice failed. wife secured an infaliible
remedy for drunkenness, known as
Haiue's Golden Specific, put it into her
husbands coffee several times unknown
to him, and it made sober man out of
him, who for six years had hardly
known sober day Three doses set
tied him, and now he blesses his wife
and loves his children. Commenting
upon this incident, an acquaintance re-
marks: II have been afraid TO drink
cup of coffee or tea at home ever since,
for fear my wife will spring it on me
and | would get up some morning and
not be able TO take my rations. Look
into the matter for the fun of the
thing
A Cincinnati. o., paper says: The
Golden Specific IS simple, harmless
remedy, can be administered without
the knowledge or consent of the subject
to be treated. and has yet to have
ehrOnicled against il the first failure to
cure" Its efficiency is attested BY
leading physicians and druggists the
world over 1t is absolutely harmless
and effective. 1t will not discommOde
the person who takes it. and one pack
age for three dollars often does the
work. There is no reasonable excuse
for any man addicted TO the use of al
cahOlic drinks. who wishes healing and
health. to continue a slave to drink
when this peerless remedy, thai has the
highest endorsements both abroad and
at home. is within the reach of even the
most limited in means 1t Is certainly
worth your while to inquire about the
Specific, and why not start it now by
securing a 4S-page pamphlet, free, of
Golden Specific Co., Cincinnati. o.,
which contains unanswerable argu-
ments IN its favor?
