Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1893-10-20

The senators favoring the repeal Of
the purchase clause of the Sherman
silver law are clearly in the majority;
and, if they have the manly courage of
their convictions they will finally carry
their point, Notwithstanding the I'M
constitutional rule permitting end
less talk, and the consequent AFRO
gance Of the minority Judge Thomas
W. Cooley says Of the Senate:
It's constitutional duty plainly is
to proceed as if no such revolutionary
rule or custom existed. When a mi
'nority show by their conduct, and even
hoastingly declare that they propose to
avail thereof for the express purpose
Of preventing the senate from txer-
csing their constitutional authority,
they are in SO doing professedly max
ing use Of The rules of the body for a
disorderly purpose and the senate is
no more bound to submit to their dis
orderly proceedings than it would be
to that Of persons not members who
should in any way attemp to prevent
regular or legal Hesitation.
Members of the majority should
make the proper motions looking to
definite and final action on the pend
ing measure, and the presiding officer
should recognize them since in that
way only can the inalienable right of
the senate be shown to exercise its
will"
A majority being in favor of the
pending measure, their votes should
be so cast and so recorded. The
American people, who admire cour-
age and dispise cowardice, can never
be made to believe that abused sena-
torial courtesy should be allowed to
block the way of financial reform, of
which there is so much need.

The fact that the Harrison ADM

The fact that the Harrison admin.
istration took office with a surplus in
the treasury of hundred millions of
dollars, and at the end Of four years
left the treasury practically empty
sorely troubles the partisan republican
press. They are utterly unable tc
offer any truthful, valid excuse for the
squandering or the peoples money
and so they resort to downright false,
hood. The following recently appeared
In the Madison Journal, and has since
been reprinted in a number of ouI
local exchanges:
Instead of calling in outstanding
bonds and other obligations of the
government, Mr.. Cleveland's admins
tration permitted the surplus to ac-
cumulate, putting in time directing
public attention to the surplus accu-
mulated by unnecessary tariff tax
alton"
What a low estimate these editors
must place upon the intelligence OF
their readers, to imagine that they can
make them believe such statement!
Unless memory has altogether failed
them, they should know that during
Mr.. Clevelands's first term, all of the
bonds then subject to call were retired,

Loss to the School Fund.

State Superintendent Wells has is
sued circular to the supervisors of
the various counties of the state, call
ing their attention to the constitu-
tional provisions which regulate the
disposition Of proceeds Of fines col
lected by justices of the peace and
police magistrates for breach of the
penal laws; the constitution provides
that the "clear proceeds of all fines
collected in the several counties for
breach of the penal laws shall be set
apart as separate fund" The state
ments made by county clerks, and
also tables published in the last report
of the statement, indicate an i'm
mense loss to the school fund through
the failure of fines to reach the state
treasury.

Under the heading "Notice to
Bankers" Henry Halverson, county
clerk, publishes in this issue of The
Democrat notice In pursuance of
chapter $50 Of the laws of 1893, which
makes it the duty Of county boards of
supervisors to designate regular county
repositories, in which the bulk of the
county funds shall be deposited for a
stated rate Of interest upon daily bal
ances Section 2 of the law reads as
follows:
every such county depository, be-
fore it Ee entitled to receive any
public moneys, shall file with the
county clerk good and sufficient
bond, conditioned for the payment
upon demand to the county treasurer
or to his order all moneys deposited
with it, and of interest thereon, at the
rate agreed upon as he .einafter pro-
vided, with not less thin three sure
ties, residents and fire 1holders of this
property within tbs state, not exempt
from execution, over and above their
debts and liabilities, double the
amount of the penalty of said bond,
and who mall Justify such respon-
sibtlity oy their several atlidavits,
which said bond said sureties shall,
before such filing, have been approved
by the county board of supervisors
The treasurer is relieved from loss
or liability "for any loss thereof re
sulting from failure or default of any
such depository. without fault or neg
lect on the part of such treasurer
The county board is authorized to
fix the amount which may be retained
by the county treasurer in the treas
ury; but in no case shall said sum
exceed the sum of three thousand dol
lars"

besides many millions more, which
were U OF due, and which the govern
ment had to purchase from the bond
olders DIT their own terms. Just five
years ago. Hon. Charles S. Fairchild,
who was then Secretary of the Treas
ury made, the following statement:
"Up to the 1st of this October 1881
all of the three per cent bonds out
standing at the beginning of this ad-
ministration. $194, 10000 had been
retired, and in addition $81, 923,24O of
four and four and one-half per cent.
bonds at cost in premium of $14,-
S1O,778.60, or in all there has been
applied to the retirement and purchase
of bonds $290,924, 518 60, and the total
interest bearing debt appearing in the
September debt statement is under
the one thousand million mark, the
first time in a generation it has not
taken ten figures to express it."
This statement can be verified by
the records of the department, and it
establishes the fact that had the for
mer Cleveland administration not
gone into the maket and purchased
bonds which were not subject to
call, the surplus to be turned over to
the Harrison administration, instead
of being $l00,00O,000 would have
reached nearly $200,000,0O0. Another
fact which it establishes is, that the
bearers of false political witness can
be brought to confusion when con-
fronted with the truths of history.

Senator Hill said many bad things
in his speech upon the repeal measure,
but when he says that movement to
amend the rules of the senate would
be supported by the constitution
and the people, he talks right, and
right to the point. The rules should
be changed by all means, least they
are used as stumbling block III the
way of tariff reform as well as finan-
cial reform.

An Honorable Disputant, Depending
on Legitimate Argument.
From the Stockton Evening NALL
The Sacramento RECoRD-UNIoN has
entered upon the forty-third year of its
existence. The RECoRD-UNIoN is a great
paper, considering the size of the city in
which it is published. There is probably
not another journal in the United States,
similarly situated, that publishes so much
general news. 1t has the full Associated
Press dispatches every morning, which
comprises intelligence of current events
from all parts of the civilized world. The
service is as costly as it is extensive. In
extent it equals as much matter of what
ever character as almost any other paper
in the United States published in town
no larger than Sacramento prints. Cali
fornia has the best papers in the country,
possibilities of field considered. and the
Geographic service of the RECORD UNION
is the best in the State, measured by this
standard. 1t is also an able paper edi-
torially, although the AdU frequently
dIsagrees with it. But the RECORD
UNION is fair and honorable disputant,
depending upon the force of legitimate
argument, in which it is very strong, for
triumph in any cause.

MUSICAL AND LITERARY
Entertainment at the Sixth-Street
NJ. {. Church,
For the Benefit of the Sunday-School
Library-The Franz-Schubert
Orchestra.

The entertainment at the Sixth-street
NJ. E. Church last evening for the benefit
of the Sunday-school library called out a
large number, the church being filled 10
its full capacity.
The programme for the evening was
one of unusual excellence, and hearty APP
probation was manifested by the audi
ence. The entertainment opened with q
musical selection by the Franz-Schubert
Orchestra, entitled Columbus" arranged
by Professor George b. Franz, and which
was loudly applauded.
Miss Edith kenwick recited 1.-The Old
Man Goes 70 Town." with good effect.
Miss Annie Thompson sang Lullaby
Song,' and was obliged to respond to the
encore.
The exhibition of club-swinging. which
was to have been given by three young
men, could not be given for lack of room,
and Charles Denton was the only
performer. The lights were lowered and
the young man used illuminated clubs
with such good effect that he was called
the second time TO repeat the exercise.
The recitationS by Miss +. l.. Condo,
TIE Legend of the Organ Builder" and
Trowbriuge's poem, "Old Robin" were
given with very perfect and distinct ac-
cent and enumeration, and she was
heartily applauded.
The "Ariosa" upon the organ, with vio-
lin accompaniment, by Miss Amelia
Boil and Professor Franz, was artistic
ally rendered, and the audience APP
plauded sincerely for repetition, but
were not favored.
vocal solo, "The Wood Nymph's
Call" was delightfully."- given by Miss
Stella Cady, and the entertainment closed
with a selection from III Trovatore" in
Producing the anvil Chorus" by the
Franz-Schubert orchestra.
The orchestra, with its twenty odd per-
formers so eXcellently trained, could not
fail to be feature ofthe evening, and each
time was encored. The music produced
by the performers, mostly amateurs and
pupils Of Professor Franz, was OF a high
order of excellence, and the class showed
very accurate drill and execution
The orchestra was composed as follows:
Fiolinists-A. NJ. Braddock, viii Toll,
Mary Griffin, Edna Johnson, Fred Bates.
r. Levy, Chris Weisel and Ralph Laven-
son; pianists, Belle Johnson, Ida Bates;
clariouet-G. George; bass viol. Charles
Lewis; cello-Mary Lewis; anvil chorus
Daisy Weisel; cornets-W. a. De Mer-
ritt, Jesse McLane; tlute-George Schep-
stone; tromboue-N. b. Morrill,; orches-
ira bellS-Lottie Schepstone; drum-Wal-
lace Renwick; leader-Professo Franz.
The members of the orchestra ex-
pressed themselves as being under many
obligations TO Joseph w. johnson, at
whose residence they have practiced re-
| hearsals, and to whom they are indebted
for assistance upon various occasions.
Professor Franz rejoices in the possess
sion of an elegant ebony baton, mounted
in silver and engraved, presented by
mem bers OF his class.

Afternoon Session.


Although at the opening in the morn
ing the attendance was not large, the hall
had steadily filled before noon, and when
was taken, showing that. although in the
busy season, the interest of the farmers
was thoroughly aroused.
The session opened with a series of
questions propounded to Professor Wick
son by Thomas Mcconnell and others as
TO the proportion of students at the Uni
versity studying agriculture. The an
swers developed the fact that fair pro-
portion were so engaged, and that large
portion of them came from The cities,
while from the farming community the
majority were preparing for some of the
learned professions; on the whole, how
ever, the trend is more toward practical
and scientific education.
Miss Kate Manlove favored the insti-
tute with an admirably rendered vocal
solo, "a Bird in Dreamland's Sleep and,
for an encore, kitty Was His Sweet
