HE decision OF the supreme court
makes the obligation assumed by bonds
men so binding that it will be utterly i'm
possible for officers to furnish them, A
person who has been on an officials" bond
has his title to his property clouded even
after the principal has settled up the
affairs OF his Office to the satisfaction of
all parties Interested. An unsatisfied
mortgage Is hardly more Objectionable
than having been on a bond, so far as the
safe possession of the property is con-
cerned. The bond seems to be perpetual
while there is limitation to the mort
gage.
The condition of affairs is simply ter
rlble and calls for some relief from the
legislature. There should be some limi-
tatlon to bond. The man who 40 years
ago went on bond may now in his old
age ne called upon to pay the forfeit. Dur
ing the time Intervening he might have
taken steps to protect himself by de-
handing security from his principal. But
he Is not given that opportunity. The
law absolutely holds him responsible
while denying him any means of making
himself secure.
Not only this, but it appears shat a
bondsmen may be held for things not
covered by the bond. He is unable to de-
termlne the extent or the character of his
liability. He is utterly helpless, bound
hand and foot for all time. This condi-
ton of affairs will render it impossible
for any one to furnish bonds. Indeed it
will have the effect of making people
withdraw from bonds if this can be effect
ed, Antonio was never held more strict
ly to what was nominated in the bond"
than the decision of the supreme court
holds bondsmen to everything incident
to the bond in Wisconsin.

FIRST FORMAL BALLOT
REEDSVILLE.

MIR. SIZZLING of Port Washington was
in the town last week.
James Guhin and wife of Eureka s. D.
spent few days recently visiting friends
IN Maple Grove. From there they went
to Superior where the latter's parents
reside. Mr.. Guhin taught school in this
county some years ago, but does not
teach any longer and now seems inclined
to think that the wielder OF the birch can
better employ his time to his own ad-
vantage.
rheumatism is at present the most
troublesome disease In this locality. john
Noble suffers more or less from that ma
lady and Albert Mueller was confined to
his house several weeks with the same.
The latter is now able to be about while
the former is feeling some what better
than previously.
Timber of all kinds, except first quality,
Is being brought to Reedsville daily.
Dressed hogs are marketed here also In
considerable quantities. The roads are
in such good condition that the cold
weather has not materially hindered
hindered travel.
Jos. Schause of Plymouth disposed of
number of cash registers to the village
store keepers on occasion Of his visit here
last Nov. The above mentioned articles
are now on hand, and seem to give gen.
eral satisfaction, not alone to the bust
ness men, but also to their customers who
receive their change back together with
a receipt for the amount Of their pur-
chase in shorter time than ever before.
At the teachers institute last fall it
WAS determined to hold monthly meetings
at or between Reedsville and the Branch.
A committee was appointed TO prepare
programs and president and secretary
appointed. Up to the present date the
initial meeting has not been called. The
parties above mentioned are not to blame
for their seeming neglect, for there are
obstacles in the way of performing their
duty which were foreseen at the institute.
How ever it is time that a meeting was
held If there are to be any.

The movement for change IN the
school law abolishlng the Office of county
superintendent and creating the position
of district inspector, has for Its object the
increased good of the schools SO far as
more efficient supervision can effect this
end. The primary purposes are:
% To secure more competent persons
to supervise the common schools OF the
state.
o. To make some provision whereby
the competency of supervisors may be
determined and suitable persons selected.
81 To secure permanency In the po-
sition Of inspector if the appointee is de-
serving
a. To more equitably distribute the
| work of supervision.
These may be regarded as the essential
features of the schme. The detail oflegisla
ton whereby these objects are to be secur
ed, will need explanation, but The purpose
IN view is what should be kept in mind
and is what should induce favorable con-
sideration of the bill viii ch is to be intro
duced. This purposed legislation is not
an impulslve movement. 1t was first sug
gested by President Harvey at the meet
ing of the Wisconsin Teachers Associa-
| ton in 1890. 1t was not acted upon i'm
| mediate'y but has received mature con-
| slderatlon up to the present time. Dur
| ing all that time it has been subjected to
the closest scrutiny and has stood the
fire of criticism we'll. There was no in
terested motive involved IN it's inception,
there is none in its advocacy by those
who deslreite passage. The good of the
schools is its sole aim and that 1t will
benefit them much its projectors have
every reason to believe.
Naturally, change SO complete as the
one contemplated will startle the conser-
vatlve. But not an argument can be
urged against it that cannot be honestly
met. No one having knowledge Of ex-
listing conditions Ia the supervision of
our schools and deslrous OF their improve
ment, can examine the purpesed meas
ure without approving 1t.
The press of the state can do much to-
ward informing the people on this meas.
IRE. 1t is not blind advocacy that is de,
sired but a careful examination and hon
est criticism, with view to calling at
tention to its merits or it's defects, if il
should have any. Carrying out the pur-
pose of the measure will necessitate the
pear like an innovation to which the PEG
pie may not be willing to su bscribe at
once, but their necessity to the proper
carrying out of the movement will not
onl reconcile people to them but gain
their approval.

The La Crosse Chronicle says that
Col. knight has among his supporters
the entire capital city crowd who were
opposed to the Bennett law. by blazesw
that's one thing. at least, which speaks
well for Col. Knight The Chronicle asks
whether this looks as if Senator Villas
favored the election of his partner. Well,
now, it is generally understood that only
professionally is Col. Villas. the opponent
of paternalism. He thumps it about too
much on every conceivable occasion to
be sincere in his wrath. Why, dear Ellis,
if the silver-tongued Colonel felt the
heat he displays he would be consumed
with internal fire as Jacob Faithful's
mother was. The world is a stage, dear
and mankind are actors thereon, particu.
larry when an Office is in sight which may
be won by good acting.

Nor little opposition Is manifesting
itself to the anti-option bill in the senate
and strange to say from quarters least
expected If the assertions of the oppon
ents of the measure are true. Senator
Palmer placed his state on record as I'm.
alterably opposed to the bill on the
ground that States alone have the power
to leglslate 10 such matters. Illinois has
law similar TO the anti-option bill but
1t is not enforced. Palmer does not saw
why but from the stand taken by the
Chicago operators il can easily be lnterr-
ed what dictates the opposition of Pal
mer. His constitutionality argument is
but filmsy covering to hide his real mo.
tves. While congress may not have
specific authority to tax bucket shops out
of existence many precedents can be cit
ed for congress to follow.
Local opposition to the Illinois law de-
feated It's object, and this very thing is a
strong point in favor of a national law,
1t possible that the dark excrescence on
legitimate trade cannot be removed by
legislation but it is also possible that it
can, and any attempt to restore trade to
a normal condition muot be called good.
The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1893-01-19

In his inaugural message Governor
Peck advocates the creation of another
Normal School for the northern part of
the state. 1t might be well. however, to
ascertain the purpose of the schools now
IN existence with view of determining
whether another institution similar to
those we have is really necessity. Most
normal schools are only partially meet
ing educational conditions in the state
and it would seem that steps should be
their legitimate work with suitable
ps Of assistants rather than to make
permanent work that is now largely
tentative in character. Our normal
schools cannot furnish the elementary
schools with teachers and the continued
attempt to do SO will postpone into the
far future the realization of the special
purpose of normal schools.

To the Editor of The Pilot.

To the Editor Of The Pilot:
The remarks in The Pilot of January
9th IN regard to the trial of DIR. Briggs
were aside from the questions involved
and do our friends an injustice. The
real question in the case of this trial was
one of contract. Was DR.. Briggs preach
ing ID conformity to the standards of
Presbyterlanism, to which he had bound
himself? 1t was charged by his accusers
that he was not conforming to those
standards. DR.. Briggs denied the charges
| and the result of the trial seems to have
been verdict of mot proven"
Our modern, SO called "heresy trials"
have been likened IN their degree to the
prosecutions of the 1nqulsition, but there
is very important distinction. The one
claimed the right to lnhict physical tor
ture for private opinion or Individual I'M
belief, the other in its final solution
simply claims the right of contract. Is
the man who has bound himself by his
ordination to fulfil certain cont tract i. e.
to preach according to certain standards,
performing his contract or is he not?
The right to find the answer to this ques.
ton cannot certainly be denied and that
is what the trial Of DR.. Briggs before the
proper authorities has thus far sought
to answer. And our Presbyterian friends
are to be congratulated on the result
thus far, though notice of appeal has
been entered.
The question Of freedom of speech is
not involved in trials of this character.
The person does not stand as an in
dlvidual but is before the public in the
position of official represe NATIVE of
society. Since public office is a "publ1c
trust" the officer is bound to administer
the trust or else resign or be deposed by
which he is released from the trust.
This would be the extreme result of
trial, which instead of limiting his free
dom OF speech would give it the widest
range, for then as an individual he might
speak his opinions ad libitum on his o,rn
responsibility. We are likely to have
more of these "heresy trials" and 1t is well
for us to bear in mind the real issue in
volved' The direct issue is question of
conformity to standards and these trials
will doubtless continue until our various
religious standards are landed on the
firm ground of divine authority.
