Law VS.. Lawlessness.

A significant fact brought to
our notice by journalist of some
pretensions is that those states
having the highest regard for
justice and law, have the greatest
excellence in their exhibits of
skilled workmanship and artistic
finish. This is a self-evident fact
to the Worlds Fair visitors who
think for moment to intelligently
compare the state exhibits of some
Of the Southern states where
lynchings, persecution and lawless
violence rule the laboring classes,
with the free and law abiding
Northern states. The everlasting
laws of cause and effect are
interchangeable and only freedom,
education and justice can develop
the spirit of ambition and pride
that forms the basis of all self
culture. Liberty and progress are
inseparable. Tyranny, persecution
and lawlessness bear their fruits as
we'll, and the lessons taught at the
Fair by such comparisons need to
be needed that out of the evil a
new growth may be formed for
betterment Not on tables of
stone, on parchment or printed
book, but on human faces must
the laws of justice and fair play
and human rights be engraved.
Then, and not till then, will
Mississippi and Louisiana hold
their own in the lines of progress
and advancemen t with Minnesota,
Ohio, Illinois and other states.
The same rule prevails univer-
sally. Brazil stands ahead of her
neighbors, England towers over
Ireland, Sweden outranks Poland,
the Japanese are immensely
superior to the Chinese. The well
paid mechanic Of the world meas
ures by all manly qualities and by
requirements far ahead of the
degraded serfdom of other lands
Or the downtrodden black man of
our own. Out of the ranks of the
oppressed come the anarchist, the
1shmaels Of society, the terrors of
civilization, the lynchers and the
mobs.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1893-10-19
A Pertinent Query.

Why is it that old time Rebels
now, after all these years of silence,
crowd to the front with claims for
war damages? Good loyal Demo-
Gratis, as we'll as Republicans are
interested and every honest citizen
protests. General Wheeler, d
confederate cavalry fighter, intro
duced batch of one hundred
twenty two Southern war claims
the other day. There are now
over a thousand bills before
Congress calling for good hard
cash to fill rebel pockets while
aged, poverty stricken Union
soldiers and widows suffer for the
necessaries of life. Let those in
power beware they awaken a
sleeping Nemesis by unjust and
Infamous legislation in favor Of
those who tried to throttle our
country.
A portrait of Col. NJ. Frank
should adorn the walls of every
school house in the state. He is
the founder Of the present free
school system in Wisconsin and is
also the oldest Editor in the state.
For his work in the interest of free
schools we owe him a debt of
gratitude that would make it a
labor of love to collect money and
have portrait suitably framed
hung in our high schools as a
token Of our grateful recognition
of him and his services.
From Christopher Columbus to
the Chicago of to-day is four
hundred years. From the three
little caravels to the magnificent
transatlantic steamships, trans
continental R. R. trains and swift
sailing yachts that wing their way
over the lakes of America, are
more than four hundred fold in
advancement.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1893-10-19

The pride of the Republican
party is its adherence to a sound
money basis. When the country
was emptied to pay its bonds in
deprecated money, the party in
clarion tones declared that "every
bond was as sd cred as a soldiers
grave" Abraham Lincoln met
the same arguments that democrats
advance today by a steady, persis-
tent policy of sound money
principles.
