DODGE county is noted for many things

DODGE county is noted for many things
but chiefly for politics and statesmen who
wear SLOUGH hats and shave clean. Poll
tics is the leading industry of Dodge
county and the phrase getting there"
must have originated in that county as
the soil and climate are most congenial
TO that product SO aptly described By the
oft quoted slang expression, above given.
Dodge county has large population at
all political conventions held at Madison
or Milwaukee. and is numerous at the
first named place during legislative SEES
slons. 1t is an important factor IN shap-
ing issues for state campaigns. It's climate
is conducive to large chest expansion
and gives vocal chords tenseness and a
large amplitude of vibration
Dodge county diversifes its Industries
as occasion demands, but all are conduct
ed on political methods. At persent the
tramp industry is being pushed with
vlgor and returns are correspondingly
large. The bill of the sheriff for board
ing tramps from Nov. 1892 to Nov 1898
was $4,000. The tramps cared for IN
Dodge county and to whom justice has
been melted during the months of Novem-
Der, December and January, number ga
1t is estimated that the average expense
of lodging a tramp in jail is $40. The
Importance of the tramp industry may be
gathered from the sum total received by
those engaged i'll it. 1t is shrewd bust
ness move but requires tactful manage
ment and rare degree of complaisance on
the part of the people. A person with a
little bushes in him can thrive in Dodge
county even in panic times.

Ex-senator SPooNER has set at rest all
speculauons as 10 his candidacy for the
governorship, by stating That he would
not accept certificate Of election to that
Office. In 1892 he felt that he owed some
thing 10 the party which houored him
by electing him to the United States SEN
ate and he yielded, though with reluct-
ance, TO lis mandate 10 lead the sorlorn
hope. He did not desire the election but
made sacrifice Of his time and incurred
the danger of loss Of personal prestige
which Is always attendant upon defeat.
MIR. Spooner is to the republican party
what Col. Villas Is TO the democratic party.
Each has been similarly honored bv his
party; but here the similitude ends.
The reciprocal relations between Mr..
Villas ana his party are but half Ge-
aeloped. He has thus far been the bene-
ficIary. \ Macedonian cry has now gone
forth that he make sacrifice. as Spoouer
did, for the good OF the party and thus
remove the suspicion that he loves it
only when 1t Is the bearer of gifts.

The report SCI in circulation by The
Pail Mall Gazette, that Gladstone con-
templates early retirement from active po-
htical duties, gives rise to a general regret
that age should deprive the world OF the
services of a statesman whose ability and
unseltishness distinguish him from all
other men of his age. No confirmation
OF the first report comes from any authen-
tic source and this discredits it. 1t is
said, however, that Gladstone's hearing
and sight are failing, and that while his
mind Is as clear and lis resolution as
strong as ever, and his vitality unimpair-
Ell, the loss Of two such senses as those
of hearing and seeing will incapacitate
him for leadership.

BERNARD GOLDSMITH has resigned his
position as regent of the normal schools.
In letter to Gov. Peck he calls atten-
tentlon to the improvement in the Mil
wauBee normal school for which he takes
credit to himself. In the estimation of
Mr. Goldsmith the loss to the board be-
cause ofhis resignation is well nigh irrep-
arabic. But then he stands ready to
give advice at any time he may be called
upon SO that our deprivation in school
matters is not so serious as 1t might be
if Mr.. Goldsmith would sulk.
