What about This Randolph Boy2

John X. Parish, youngest son OF the
late Hon. Jacob X. Parish, was born in
Randolph, was educated at the Orange
County Grammar school (now the Ran
dolph State Normal schooD and removed
to Wisconsin when young man and en-
tered upon the study of the law in the Of
flee of his brotterin law, Hon. Edward
l.. Browne of Waupaca. He was admitted
to the bar and became a successful prac-
titioner and was elected district attorney,
which position be held ten years. He was
also elected to the State legislature and
ion of bills. Six years ago he was elected
Circuit Judge for the Fifteenth Judicial
District OF Wisconsin, and he has Just re-
ceived reelection for another period of
six years. The district comprises six
counties. He had five competitors in the
race and distanced them all We clip the
following from the Ashland (Wis.) Daily
Press:
s'The Press to-day publishes, for the first
time, the complete official vote of the six
counties forming the Fifteenth judicial
district. Parish stands first in the race ;
Dockery, second; Colet, third; Warden,
fourth; Calkins, fifth, and Miles, sixth.
Parish received over two to one over Dock
cry. His vote as compared with Cole and
Warden was four to one. For every vote
received by Calkins or Miles. he received
over six to one. Cole and Warden ran
closely together, the former only receiv-
ing less than forty votes more than War
den. Calkins and Miles received about 30
difference.
Parish received more votes in Bayfield,,
Price, Taylor or Ashland county than
Calkins received in the whole six coun-
ties. Calkins received but Is votes in
Sawyer county to 354 for Parish. An in
spection of the official table below tells
the whole story. Judge Parish will finish
his twelve years as Judge January 1, 1900"
The summary OF the official ballot shows
that the total vote cast was 8, ,252. OF these,
Judge Parish received 1000 and his high
est competitor, 1,746, giving him plural
ity off ,254. Judge PArish's own county,
Taylor, gave him 99S votes and pa votes
for all the others. Where he lived and
was best known, he was strongest.
In the first session in which Judge Par
ish presided in his first election, seventeen
cases passed from his decision to the Su-
preme Court, and his decisions were ali
sustained but four. That was a good rec
ord for young judge, and we believe that
he has well sustained the reputation that
he at first gained, of a careful, studious
and painstaking jucge. Judge Parish is
Republican, and as this is a close district,
t he vote showed the popularity of the
Vermonter- We are glad that Wisconsin
and appreciates the ability of
this Randolph boy, who has been raised
to this position by his own exertions. 1t
can truly be said Of him that be is a self
made man. We congratulate him on this
preferment and bespeak for him contin.
ned success.

There are SO many aspects from
which 10 view the Worlds Fair that
it is hard to know which side OF it to
speak of first. From whatever point
one sees it, however, there can be but
one general opinion-it is the most ST II
pendous achievement, the crowning
miracle OF modern times. The first
thought comes over one with sort Of
sadness, that such city of palaces
should be reared, such an enormous
expenditure of time, money and labor
made, just for a few months pleasure.
But, on the other hand, what a great
people we have become that we can af-
ford all this expense just TO give our
people and the worlds people this beau
tiful glimpse of our power, and then
destroy it all We, as nation, and
Chicago, as city, have reason to be
proud. The Centennial Exhibition
was child's playa mere feeling of our
way toward the present glorious con-
summation. 1t seems almost incredi-
BILE that 1t should have been left to Chi
cago, that crude, Western city where
lack of culture is an otfense TO Eastern
ears. to surpass the whole world in Gre
ating beautiful spectacle. But such
is the case and such Chicago has done.

beautiful and so soon TO fade, Chicago

ton, aud most heartily she shall have

Editorial Notes.

The recent failure OF some Western
investment companies, followed by the
collapse Of the Vermont Investment
and Guarantee company of Orwell,
which was more or less involved affects
many Vermonters to a greater or less
degree. Many do not feel much sym :
pathy for these people, saying that
they should invest their money 10 build
up their own homes. Many Of our
people are getting tired of risky West
ern and Southern investments and are
looking for chances nearer home. 1t
is highly improbable that the present
financial depression is anything more
than temporary. Our manufacturing
and railroad interests were never in a
more prosperous condition than now.
There is fair outlook for agriculture.
There is no probability Of free trade at
present. The silver question is the
most troublesome that President Cleve-
land has to deal with, and we can only
hope that he will settle it in a wise
and business-like way. The present
trouble is due more to distrust than to
any other single cause, and il every
one would realize that there is no se-
rious unsoundness, the present cloud
wonld blow over.
