KOch's Withdrawal.

The withdrawal of Mayor John G..
Koch from the field of Republican
candidates for The governorship, while
it is regretted in all quarters and dis
appointing to his numerous friends
and supporters who felt certain of his
easy nomination, is not by any means
cause for apprehension in the Re-
publican party, as there is still an
abundance of excellent material from
which to make frst-class selection.
That Mr.. Koch's retirement has
strengthened the desire to be governor
of several gentlemen whose names
were mentioned, but who recognized
the formers great following and were
therefore somewhat backward in
making their candidacy pronounced,
is very obvious, and from now on
until the convention names the man
it may be expected that their virtues
will be expounded to the best ability
of their adherents. Any one of these
candidates it Blackstock, Hau-
gen, Upham, Scofeld, Caswell, Taylor,
Kidd or Monahan-would no doubt
fill the governors chair with credit
to himself and to his party and with
an ability that has not been in evil
dense the last few years. There is no
lear that the wisdom Of the conven-
ton will be misplaced with such a
,goodly array to choose from. 1t is
still too early to arrive at the choice
OF tue Republicans in this locality.
Mr.. Koch was undoubtedly their
efavorite by an overwhelming majority
before his withdrawal, and it was
thought that he would prove an ex-
ceedingly strong candidate III Dodge
and Jefferson counties, where the Ger
man vote is large. But now things
are different. His boom seems to
have NO particular legatee, all the
numerous candidates coming in for
their share of followers, and thus the
situation becomes more and more
complicated.

that man has neglected to proclaim
himself a candidate. The best men
are not those who show the most
eagerness for nomination, or who
are the most active in "hustling for
delegates" We should have the ablest
and the cleanest man who will accept
a nomination that can befound, and
who unites with those qualities the
personal popularity which is an
important element in a successful
canvass. Milwaukee Sentinel.

The Next State Ticket,


There may be safety in multitude
OF counsellors but there is perplexity
in q multitude of candidates. Ifgen-
eral report can be trusted, there
seems to be an overproduction of
candidates among the Republicans
this year, and especially of candi-
dates for the office OF governor. On
ly one of these willing and ambitious
gentlemen can Oe nominated. NJ
merous as they are, however, they
form but an inhnitislmal percentage
OF the Republicans of the state whose
chief interest does not relate to per
SO IS but to principles and policies.
1t is obvious that much of the bust
ness depression that prevails, result
ing in the suspension Of enterprise,
the closing offactories the withdrawal
OF currency from circulation, the dim
mutton OF wages, and in throwing
hundreds of thousands OF workingmen
out Of employment, is the direct
consequence of the laundering
lncapacity OF the party in power,
and It's menace of radical changes in
the policy under which the nation
grew great and prosperous. To put
an end to the rule Of that party, and
to re-establish the conditions of ma
tional prosperity, is the aim of the
Republicans. To accomplish the re-
suit, the most essential thing is to
secure a majority in the next congress.
In making up their state ticket, the
Republicans of Wisconsin should
bear in mind that it is important
that the nominations should be such
as will. by assuring harmony and en-
thuslasm, promote the success Of the
congressional and local nominations.
1t IS not enough merely to nominate
for state officers men who can be elect
ed; they should be men enjoying the
confidence and esteem of the people
to such degree that this popularity
will be a potent influence in contribut-
ing to the success of the party candi-
dates for congress and the legislature.
OF course the selection of the head of
the ticket is of the greatest moment.
He should be above all man with a
clean record, whose antecedents will
bear the closest scrutiny in the fierce
light that beats upon candidate
during a sharp political contest, one
who need not be shamed whatever re-
cord leaps to light.
The voters who choose the dele
gates to the nominating convention
need not be embarrassed by the num-
Der of candidates. They need not
confne their selection to those who
have come forward with the an
nouncement that they are candidates.
They are at liberty to appoint dele
gates who will support the nomina-
ton OF the man whom they think the
most desirable candidate, even if

the negotiations were going ON leaked
out, and stories were started which put
an end to the deal. The citizens will
now go ahead with the prosecutions,

expected the court will order the posi-
tions of the board members vacated

OELwEN, Ia. Sept. 81. Tremendous
excitement prevails in the little village
OF Hazleton, about four miles from this
city, on account of the poisoning OF 21
small school children. The first to show
signs Of poisoning was soon after recess.
At recess one of the scholars bought two
or three pounds OF cheap mixed candy
part OF which was colored green, and
treated the children. Some OF the doc
tors think the candy poisoned the
pupils. while others claim 1t was caused
by the drinking of water which was
brought from well that had not been
used for about nine months. 1t Is the
opinion of the attending physicians that
most OF the children will recover,
though several are in critical condi-
ton.

something of the inside workings of the

of the officers of the American
Distributing company of New York,
who have come to make an investiga-
ton OF the safety Of the rebate vouch-
ers. They have been i'm consultation
with Sam Woolner, whose distillery,
the largest in the world, will be ready
for operation next month, and which
alone can supply all the demand in the
present condition of the trade. Tt is
possible that deal may be made with
him and the trust left out.

CHAMBERLAIN, s. D., Sept. 2I.-It Is
estimated the cattle shipments from the
ranges in the ceded Sioux lands and
Western South Dakota viii this season
be larger than ever before. Thus far
about 10000 head of fine cattle have
been shipped from Belle Fourche and
Brennan stations, in the Black Hills.
The good prices the stockmen are re-
ceiving for their cattle Is causing gen.
eral move among cattlemen to push
their cattle upon the market with all
possible speed. In addition TO the heavy
shipments from the two points men
toned, thousands Of head have been
shipped from this city and Pierre, and
the shipments have but fairly com.

neared the wire she again seemed to in
