The nomination of Koch for governor
by the republicans would be certain if
the convention were held now. But there
is a feeling Of antagonism steadily grow
ing throughout the state against Milwau-
kee domination which may result IN the
discontinue Of the "Inevitable." 1t must
be exaspeIating 10 honest republicans
to have the Milwaukee spring elections
determine their party candidates for
state offices. They have it in their pow
er to prevent this, but they are too COM
plant to offer opposition to programme
In the preparation of which they were
given no part. 1t is the acceptance of the
situation which Is responsible for the
party boss and which makes elections a
farce so far as the expression Of the popu-
lar will is concerned. The convention
simply gives sanction to what the bosses
decree kochs nomination will show how
weak the republican partyis in principle.

PROF. WIRTH in announcing that his
party is to be given at Turner Opera
House, because of the large attendance
expected ana that the music will be fur
nished by Prof. Urban under the direction
of Prof. Wirth of Milwaukee, has the
following TO say on ''evening dress
There seems TO be q general miscon-
ceptlon regarding the meaning of the
social phrase evening dress. Some think
full dress and evening dress are one and
the same in their meaning; that there is
a distinction without a difference. Au-
thority has it differently. If full dress
appears on an invitation, the guest &C.
ceptlng the same should appear in full
dress and nothing else. Other than full
dress apparel would be breach of social
etiquette. When evening dress is placed
on an invitation, it means explicitly that
it is not full dress affair, but, full dress
can with propriety be worn at an evening
dress party, it Is in good form; while
evening dress is not permissible at full
dress affair"

NOTES FROM MAPLE GROVE.

Mr.. J. 2. Nolan and wife of Manitowoc
spent a day in Maple Grove last week.
Jim" is the popular appeilatiau which
Mr.. Nolan receives in Maple Grove and
everyone here has a hearty welcome for
their former chairman.
The farmers are com planning OF the ex
cesrive rains of the past few weeks. The
rains have delayed the planting of pota-
toes while those potatoes that are plant
ed are IN danger of rottiDg. The cold
winds are also very injurious. especially
to fruit trees and vegetables.
DR.. r. S. O'Connell has had several
cases of pneumonia in Cato the past few
months. He has been very successful in
the treatment of this dread disease. not
having lost case since Christmas.
The Cato Literary Society held the last
meeting of the season on Saturday, May
II. This was the first society organized
in this part of the county and has accom-
plished very satisfactory results. Tie
meetings will no doubt be ontinued
next fall as the members have been very
enthusiastic in the work the past year.
The society Will give banquet at Silver
Lake on Sunday, June 10th.
A new craze has reached the young
folks of Maple Grove. Two young men
who are convinced that physical culture
is not receiving the attention it deserves,
have purchased boxing gloves and the
boys are all axious to become initiated IN
the tistic science. The result is number
of black eyes borne by those who parti-
cipate in the exercise. Among those who
give promise of becoming competitors
for prize ring honors, may be mentioned
Jim" who Mitchell like, persists in keep
ing out of reach of his antagonist; Pat
sy" whose only fault is that he doesn' t
like to hit or get hit; Dan" who will
| no doubt soon enter the ring and 'P. H.
who is rather inclined to hit hard. All
these bear evidence of pugillstic combats
while We correspondent has successfully
| borne black eye. nasal protnberance
| that even the hero Of Sleepy Hollow
| might have enviei and sundry other
| marks of a similar nature. Before enter
| ing an encounter now, the boys with iu-
dicious prudence take into consideration
the time they may be able to remain
aloof from society to recover from the
| probable effects. GROVER"

AMONG FARMERS.

May is proving disastrous month for
farmers. They are having too much of
one KIND of weather.
James Tsugher Of Liberty says fall
grain is not looking by any means as well
now as 1t did week ago.
But little farm produce was brought
to market here this week owing to the
bad condition of the weather.
Albert Landreth positively refuses to
talk about the weather, although he has
more interest 10 it than has any other
man in the county.
The frosts of Friday and Saturday
nights did but little damage to crops in
Minnesota and the Dakotas further than
checking their growth.
John kellner sold two steers to John
PITT this week which weighed over 5000
pounds. There is pretty good beef rails
ed in Manitowoc county.
John Hall says that inquiry among
farmers III this county reveals the fact
that there is still a larger amount of farm
produce, the yield Of last year, still un-
sold in this county.
There are few markets in the United
States which do as we'll by farmers as
Manitowoc does. Produce dealers have
been paying nine cents per dozen for
eggs for come time which they have been
shipping at So and S3l by wholesale.
The crop report for Wisconsin states
that the frost of last week, though OK
tending to every county in the state, did
not dc much damage to small grains.
The rainfall in Manitowoc county for the
week ending Tuesday WIS 224 inches.
Following are transfers of real estate

Senators have been offered brides to vote
against the tariff bill now before the SEN
ate, should be investigated. 1t Is SAID
that as high as $4,000 have been offered
one of the populistic senators. The
character OF the intermediary Is none of
the best and there is reason TO hope he
made the offer on his own responsibility.

UPoIITIcAL circles wer startled on Tues
day by learning of Mayor Koch's with
drawal from the field for the republican
nomination for governor. Although con-
siderable opposition was manifesting it
self to Koch's candidacy, there can not
be much doubt that he wovld be the can
didate. HIS withdrawal, however, is due
to other reasons than those he gives.

THERE is welcome probability that
the senate will pass the new tariff bill be-
fore July !. Why there should be delay
with the certainty of ultimate passage,
people, not senator's, are unable to under
stand. There is no denying the fact that
business would make quick response 20
prompt settlement of the tariff question.
If the senate could be brought to a real
izing sense of this fact it might discon-
tlnue It's d1latory tactics.
