SMALLER COUNTY BOARDS

The Madison journal contains the fol.
lowing suggestions relating to the
question OF having smaller county
boards
1T is stated hat an effort will be made
this winter in the legislature to abolish
the present CO unity board system Of rep
resentation by towns and wards, and
adopt the commissioner system, Tine
change would be good one, in the in
terest of better business manage ment
and of economy, A small board, or say
five or seven in proportion to the popu-
lation of the county, we believe to be
more desirable than the large boards
under the present system In this
county there are fifty members on the
county toArd, third more than com
prise the state senate That such a
board is unwieldly snd expensive goes
without saving We very much doubt
however. whether any change can be
brought about. Generally more than
half the members of the assembly are
in hopes of getting IN the county boar
and will not vote TO change the system,
as change would greatly lessen their
chances of success. The argument is
strongly one way. but personal inleres'
is more potent than argument,

very intractabl.. as he was smarting
under his wrongs; but after longer
persuasion from this logical and per-
suasive pleader, he agreed not to urge
the execution. Humphrey now re-
turned to the crowd and boldly and
earnestly plead for reversal of the
Judgment. and as ---'s bearing
under his trying circumstances had
inclined many to sympathy a division
of sentiment began to Replace, many
now siding with Humphrey IN favor of
letting the law take its course and not
bring a stigma on the community.
AS daylight began TO fade away the
morbid excitement seemed to die with
it, and many left for home. 1t was
finally decided to leave the prisoner in
the custody of SheriT Baker, who next
day took him to Lancaster, where he
was finally tried, convicted and SEN
fenced to prison for a term of years,
serving out his sentence in the Jail at
Mineral Point.
After his release he returned to his
home, where for a time he was shun-
ned; but his manly bearing and strong
personal magnetism gradually drew
the neighbors to treat him in a QUASI
friendly manner, especially as he man

There have been many things IN the

in which we have not been able 10
reach our ideal because of preventing
circumstances and surrounding con-

readily admit that we have been far
and generous in dealing With our po-
litical opponents and IN che presenta
tion of political principles. Abuse is
far from our idea Of controversy or ar
gument and not at all to our taste, nor

very large majority of the people of
this county. We think We have known
you too long and too well to be mis-
taken. Editorial work is pleasant and
we have enjoyed it, and the fact that
we have been honored by an appoint
ment to position in The Sta'e Educa-

lines In which most of our years have
been spent. is the only reason we offer
for giving up the editorial chair Our
