Hon. CHARLES A. PETTIBONE, of Ju-
neau, was nominated for senator by
the Republicans of the Thirteenth
Senatorial district last Wednesday
by reclamation. The nominee is a
well-known gentleman and needs no
formal Introduction. He has served
before in the senate and consequent
ly possesses considerable legislative
experience which would serve him in
good stead should he be elected. Mr..
Pettibone is a man of ability and IS
very popular among the people. He
will devote his entire time from now
to election day in an active canvass
of the district, and there are many
who think his efforts will be crowned
with success at the polls, notwith-
standing there is a large Democratic
plurality to overcome.

WE are not personally acquainted
with Mr.. Sauerhering. but from the
position he has occupied in the past
we should not consider that he was a
man who was at all posted on the
economics ofthe country, hence would
make a very poor congressman. At
any rate he has n of the wisest and
best congressman to run against that
stood in the halls of the late fifty-third
congress- Waterloo Democrat.
What a OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
man Mr.. Barwig has been! Does The
Democrat NEAR that his great "wise-
ness" is shown in his ready willingness
to obey the dictates of the bosses of
the Democracy from the South, re-
CARELESS Of the interests of his constit-
uents, and from the fact that his vote
can always be counted to further
their desires? For what particular
reason Mr.. Barwig can be paraded as
zone of the wisest and best congress
men, is not quite apparent to the
farmers and other voters of this dis
trict, and many no doubt would like
to be informed on this score and see
his virtues pointed out. By favoring
Mr.. Sauerhering with their franchises
and an election. the voters Of the dis
trict will be assured Gf at least one
thing. and that is that he will correct
~ represent their interests, and not
be a mere tool in the hands OF the
Southern Bourbons.

THE best campaign material which
the Republicans will have in the next
congressional campaign is the asser-
ton of the Democratic leaders, that
the present tariff measure is but a
stepping stone to the tariff achieve
ments, a bugle blast for more bush
whacking and sand-bagging of the in
dustries Of the country. If the coun-
try does not call a halt on these con-
s%cienceless and senseless tariff tinker
ers, and let certainty take the place
of the hap-hazard vagueness, the
catch-as-catch-can methods of the
present party in power, by restoring
the Republican party to the govern
ment, all indications are at fault

The Democratic state convention
in Mil aukee last week ren0minated
the four leaders OF the old ticket,
namely Peck, Hummer, Cunningham
O'Connor, thus the roster
iobbing scandal. There was strong
sentiment against Peck, but he vas
named on the third ballot by five
votes above the number necessary
for choice. John Winans, of James
vile, was his principalcompetitor, al
though not an avowed candidate. An
uncharitable feeling towards the Viii
as-Wall machine seemed to pervade
the convention, and INSTRUMENTATION
did not have as clear sailing in ruling
matters as they could have wished
for. However, the declinatiOn Of
General Bragg to become candidate
for governor was ofinestimable value
to the bosses, who would otherwise
have received a clean Knockout to
their plans of renominating Peck.
Nothing could have stopped Bragg's
nomination had he given consent.
The ticket as made up stands as fol-
lows: Governor, George w. Peck,
Milwaukee; lieutenant-gov vernon, Al.
Schmitz, Manitowoc; treasurer, John
Hummer, Eau Claire; secretary ofstate,
Thomas j. Cunningham, Chippewa
Falls; encouragement, James L..
O'Connor, Madison; state superin-
tendent, William II. Schultz, Bara-
boo; railroad commissioner, George
c. Prescott, Milwaukee; insurance
commissioner, Olaf R. Skaar, Viro-

MAINE has spoken in no uncertain
tones as to what the Democrats may
expect throughout the entirecountry
this fall. At its state election Mon
day the plurality for Cleaves, Repub-

81, 900, by far the largest ever given
in the history of the state. The four

every ballot. "Bob's" influence with
them was seemingly not great.

The Congregational pulpit was occu- pied on Sunday by Rev Henry Upson of New Preston, who preached & thought full and scholarly sermon from the text, "Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth.' He stated that statistics showed that nearly all who united with the church, did so at an early age. He thought the young should early unite with the church in order that they might give their best days to God. Rev MT Upson will preach again next Sunday. The third Sunday of the month the pull pit will be supplied by Rev MT James, of the Connecticut Temperance Union.

WORK PROGRESSING T.cAsTLE RONALD

The work of building that was plan n ed by F. L. Ronalds at his castle on the hill top, for this summer, has been push ed very rapidly and the west wing of the castle will be finished in few weeks, when MT Ronalds will start for his villa at Monaco, France, probably about the last week in October. The stone work is practically completed and the partitions are now being put in. The swimming bath in this wing will be it's principal feature, and MT Ronalds is planning to have it arranged in very convenient and tasteful manner. It is large room, talk ing up nearly all of the ground floor, ,and when completed and filled with water, will have depth of from four to five | feet. Above the bath, rooms are being made for the use of the servants. In the main building MT Ronalds has also made some great improvements. An air cham Der has been made under the floors, which keeps out all dampness and several of the lower rooms have been put in condition and dressed with coat of plaster. Sev- eral new pieces of furniture of great an- tiquity have arrived to grace the apart ments occupied by MT Ronalds and the interior of the castle has been made very attractive by the re-arranging and taste ful display of the furnishings and valu- able old paintings. Among the paintings of the old masters recently hung on the
 walls is one representing the martyrdom of St Catherine, feast and representa- tion of the public gatherings in halls abroad. MT Ronalds has also built a
 large addition to the barn and re-arrang- ed his stables. Something new in this part of the country are the swinging sides
 to the stables which he has introduced,
 making it impossible for horse to get cast in his stall. Carpenter SweeZey, who has been in charge of the work, has given MT Ronalds great satisfaction in
 the able manner in which he has handled the work of building. Another season the improvements will be continued, the
 wooden building at the north being re placed with stone, and MT Ronaids ex. , poets to have it arranged more to hii
 taste with another seasons work.

A CARD FROM A. G. BAKER.

Our furniture business in Hawleyville is that we may safely for 8 time at least cut down our advertising expenses. An "ad" to be ofvalue should be changed every week We are too busy to do it, besides we heard a man say the other day that that furniture man at Hawleyville who advertises so much runs on to sometimes when he goes out with: out gum. Another more charitable friend remarked to us confdentially in an of hand way that writing "ads" out of business hours mind you he didn't say we had got il, and he looked away over into the next county when he said it, but. well we are not slow to take a hint if 1t is a blind one. It would be perfect ly awful if we should really get it (this soften ing disease we mean) and have it get real had time to vaccinate so we are going to stop right of short, give up our advertising col umnS for a while. pocket the money that would otherwise go into the coffers of these grasping newspaper monopolists, eat brain hardening food and attend strictly to business i. G., selling furniture at Hawleyville.
 Now for Heavens sake don't tell everybody what you think, just remember how sensitive we are to adverse criticism and tell then that we are simply boycotting and playing Debs with the newspapers tor while, don't tell them we are tired or waiting for anything to harden, be compassionate, be just, be con- siderate be charitable, be liberal min ded one with another and last of all RE SURE AND COME TO HAWLEYVILLE before you buy your furniture.
