HIRE have been no failures of news.
papers reported throughout the country
these bard times. Publishers of local
newspapers are not usually regarded as
business mep of large capacity, nor are
they. Neither is the business so lucrs-
tive that hard times could be tided over
by the savings of flush times. There is
no line Of business in the country which
Is overdone to the same extent. And
still the smaller papers are pursuing
the nolseless tenor of their way" chroni.
eng failures in which they have no inter
est except what they share in by right of
bNGS part of the general public.
Why should such weak institutions.
financially, as country newspapers have
immunity from failures which seem to be
general with this single exception?
They have not been permitted to go be-
yond their means. The country news.
papers have either Willingly recognized
their true sphere, or force of circum-
stances have compelled them to keep
within legitimate lines of expansion. 1t
seems strange that when evil times come
those who have been regarded with good
natured contempt for their slow business
methods. should be proved to be the real
exempiars IN the direction of expanding
only to the extent that the means at
their disposal make proper.

The present financial difficulties have
been productive Of one good thing: A
Knockout blow has been given the credit
system. The cash system is now inaug-
urated IN all the grocery stores in the
south side OF the city of Milwaukee. It's
adoption by other stores in that city is
sure to follow and from there it is certain
to spread throughout the state. Every
business man should encourage it by
adopting it. The present difficulties
from which the country is suffering are
due mainly to a system of credit far in
excess Of what was warranted by pru-
dence. Enforcing the cash system will
prove far more efficacious IN restoring
confidence than will the repeal OF the
Sherman law.

SURROUNDING COUNTRY.

The Oconto Lumber Co. has reduced
wages 90 per cent. on account OF the dull
times.
The body OF man named Martin Boyle
was found near Kaukauna on Tuesday
last. A bottle containing carbonic acid
was found on his person and it is sup
posed he committed suicide.
A boy was attacked by dog in the
city OF Racine on Monday. The boys
legs and arms were terribly lacerated and
had the dog not been driven of he Ger.
tainly would have killed the boy. Even
now the physician in attendance is doubt
full OF the lads recovery.
The creditors of the Racine Hardware
Mfg. CO. lately held meeting to deter
mine what should be done with the con-
Germ. The stockholders agree TO pay 20
cents on the dollar and then resume
operations. This proposition is now
being considered by the creditors.
A man named Nunemacher, a resident
of Langlade county, became insane on
Saturday night from dependency over
poor crops and murdered his wife, two Of
his boys aged 6 and years old and a
child not yet ono year old. He then
jumped from the top OF barn and in
jured his spine. He expresses no regret
at the terrible deed he committed.
Sheboygan will probably experience
hard times for the next few months,
something from which it has almost CON-
plete immunity for number of years.
It has had no bank failure or other dis
aster and has had rapid and substantial
growth. It is to receive no check now,
but the temporary suspension OF its fac
tories will cause degree of Quietness in
that city which must appear novel in con-
trast with its busy past. In that city
the following institutions have shut down
temporarily for the lack OF orders: The
Nation Manufacturing Co., 900 men;
American Manfg. Co., 10 men; Roentz
Leather Co, 200 men; Crocker Chair Go.
800 men; Dillingham; Manfg. Co., $50
men; Zschetzsche & Son, 200 nen, j. J..
Vollrath Manfg. Co., 125 men. Two
other concerns which employ 100 men
have also shut down. The Phoenix Chair
Go. and the Sheboygan Chair Co. are run
ming at S hours a day. L
Tbo oh loxu, +ho,o
means that 1856 men in the city Of She
boygan will be out OF employment for
some time. There is no difficulty be-
tween the men and their employers, ex-
cept in the case of the NATION Manfg
Co. which would run if the men would
accept a reduction in wages and thus
bear their share of the hard times, which
they refuse to do. 1t is lack OF orders
which has caused the temporary discon-
tinuance of business by these factories.
It is condition which is quite general
ard which is fraught with danger to the
interest Of the entire country, and calls
for the most circumspect action on the
part OF people generally. The withdrawal
of money from circulation is the imme-
date cause Of the great depression which
has long since lost the features OF fur
ry. 1t is high time confidence was re-.
stored. The country has undergone a
severe process Of publication and rotten
institutions have been wiped out, taking
with them many good ones. Business
can now be revived ona substantial basis
and hard times will thus be averted. It
Is every ones duty to do what little he
can to bring about favorable reaction.

On Monday last one of the creditors of
the State Bank presented himfelf at the
bank and refused to accept the divldened
offered him but demanded that the full
amount due him be paid. This was re-
fused and he offered to take the assig-
nee's note. When this was refused he be-
came excited drew a revolver and pro-
tested that he had been swindled twice
by banks and did not propose to stand it.
He was quoted down and did not attem-
pit to carry out his threats. The sum
he had on deposit was small and was a
trust fund

THosE people who are DESTROYS of Sc
curing official position will make use of
the distress of the country to carry out
their purpose. They are republicans. In
1890 the same thing was true of the place
hunters in the democratic party. If the
people are wise now, as they were not in
1890, they will send this gang to the
demnition bow-wows. The person who
would make use of the present situation
for political gam is dangerous man to
trust. Tell the place hunters to join the
army of tramps.

Now that the sentimental1sts of this
country have started a subscription for
the Duke of Veragua because he is a
Iineal descendant of Christopher Colum-
bus, lineal descendants are cropping up
quite plentifully. The noble duke has a
brother who is likewise i'll needy circum-
stances and he would swallow his pride
and accept a pension If the good people
of this country would feel like bestowing
one. There is a Columbus likewise in
Buffalo. Columbuses can be found IN
every quarter of the globe If a promised
pension is used in the search.

THE New York national banks are TAX
ing steps to increase their circulation.
Government bonds are being purchased
for this purpose and it is estimated that
from sS.OOO,000 to 100000 bank notes
will be issued. The savings banks are
now willing to part with their securities
for currency. Gold is coming to this
country from England in large quanti-
ties. 1t is said there is 100000 in tran
sit now. The gold is coming back in the
very kegs used when it was exported and
with seals unbroken.

PARTNERSHIP goes a great ways. The
pension laws of the United States have
been administered in such a manner that
the people have suffered great wrong.
The present administration has set to
work to remedy these matters but its
efforts have cen met with such howl of
indignant remonstrance that 1t may be
forced to desist. And still the people are
apparently favorable to reform in this
matter. The abuses have been such that
reform seems absolutely necessary. And
still the people will stand in the way OF
that which they demand shall be done.
After all Vanderbilt's comment on the
public had good deal of sense in it.

pie incensed now that the search light
has revealed the rottenness of the CON-
merclal system we had built up. They
prefer to live in fancied security and to
postpone the evil day. The extravaganza
of the last few years encouraged by out
rageous tariff laws has brought us ruin,
but like children we can see no cause un-
less it lies close to the injury We have
received.
Milwaukee was a most conservative
city and while it remained SO it could defy
panics The mad desire for sudden accu-
mutation OF wealth swept over it and pro-
duced the happens the Days, the specu-
lators in mining stocks ard numerous
operators on smaller scale. Was the
change in the national administration?
Was 1.-The loss of confidence" which fol.
lowed due to the fear that the splendid
system OF tariff laws built up by the re-
publican party would be touched by pro-
fame hands? Or was it want of conf
dence in business methods of banks and
the wild cat character OF the securities
they were carrying? Is the lack Of con-
fidence in Milwaukee to-day due to fear
OF change in tariff laws or to the fact
that there is s2,5OOOOO OF paper held as
security by banks which have gone under,
on which cent cannot be realized?

whereby he puts upon the market such
