over which country both nations have ex-
creased a sort Of protec torate. Hostili-
ties have already begun between the Cor

been prompted by the Chinese. In
the event of war between these
countries the advantage would be
with Japan, notwithstanding that Oh ina

Japan has the better equipped, and the
better disciplined army. Both countries
have large standing armies.

FOR years Just preceding q general cleo
ticn, republican state officials would an
nOunce there would be no tax that year
and this fact would be ascribed to the
economic management of public affairs
by republican state officers. But when
tax rolls were made out 1t was always
found there was state tax to be paid
and by no means light one. AS mat
ter OF fact the general fund of the state
has for many years been derived from
railway and other corporation licenses.
Increased railway, telegraph ard express
business, increased the states revenue
and made unnecessary a tax for general
purposes, and there has been no such tax
for years. But there has always been a
state tax for schools, normal schools, uni
versIty, interest &c.
This year is the only one ID the history
OF the state, IN which there Is, practically,
no such thing as q state tax. the total
levy for the entire state being only $24O,-
900, as against at out S1,000,000 per an
mum Tor previous years.
Inc saving to tax payers may be better
appreciated by instItuting a CONF arson
local In It's character. In 1890 the amount
of state tax levied on Manltowoc county
was Sls,5610l. This sum was paid by
the people of the county when they paid
their taxes 10 the winter of 1890 |. This
year the tax levy for the county is only
S4,f6O, which is the equivalent of direct
bonus to the county of S14;1O1 OF by the
present democratic state administration.
There is no juggling with figures here.
The facts are exactly as stated,as any one
may ascertain to his own satisfaction
by examination. The county has receiv-
Ell from the state IN remission of taxes.
over one-thlrd of what it lost by bank
failures within the last three years.
This Is what a democratic admiuistra
ton has done. Let the people carefully
measure this advantage with charges
made against the administration by the
republican party press. There is just one
Item apparently discredltable, anc that
is in attempt, only, not a consummated
fact the roster business. That was an
attempt to give a contract. for which pro-
vision was made by republican legisla-
ture, to a democratic paper. The law
providing for the publication of the ros-
ter was steal, providing job for politi-
cal heelers at the expense of the state.
Democrats succeeded to power and were
Inclined to accept what was offered by
republican legislation. This is all there
was to the roster affair even though the
contract had been carried out. But il
was not, and the state did not lose one
cent through the roster business which
has been made 10 do such valiant service
IN casting discredit upon the democratic
party.
The people are interested in an econ
omlc and honest administration of public
affairs, and not with the interests of men
anxious to achieve public position. Facts
such as reduction of taxes should have
more weight with them than irresponsl-
BILE utterances based on no tangible fact.

GENUINE tariff reformers need not con-
slider themselves whipped by any means,
becBuse tariff reform is delayed, possibly
defeated by the action of the United
States senate. The platform of 1892 vas
unmistakable In its utterance. There
was no attempt at evasion nor were there
any apologies offered during the cam
paign Never before was there in the
history of Ameri ,an politics such pro-
nonnced approval of what before was
uttered with bated breath and whisper
el humbleness" When the fight was
won the democrats who had always put
the democracy IN an ambiguous position
at national conventions on the tariff ques-
ton, resumed their old tactics. They
had won Col. Villas TO their side II the
convention and there were those Who
thought that the reputation of the yacll-
lating policy which he chmpioned would
be fatal to the party. But the clear, bold
unmistakable utterance against protec-
| ton pleased the people and they express
ed their approval with such emphasis
that it should put life within the ribs
of death" The purpose of the people Is
| likely to be defeated by the yenality of
certain United States senators who are
democrats only for the purpose of secur-
! ing power.
What is left for the tariff reform ele-
ment to do in tins exigency? Clearly to
| pronounce for free trade. 1t is evident
while vestige Of protection is recognl-
zed there can be no genuine tariff reform.
| Entrenched interests will always defeat
such measures, as they are likely to do
| in the present instance. The Coxey arm
les of capital will be ever marching on to
Washington to secure special favors
while protection Is recognized.
There should be no compromise IN flu
ture. The Germans and Brices should
be driven out of The party with which
they affiliate only to be in a position to
faint its principles. Secret enemies must
be made to declare themselves and we
|
we occupy on the great economic ques-
ton. We have in the past, barring the
declaration of 1892, justified treachery by
"tamperlng with the tariff Issue in a
double sense" We must be pronounced
and impiacable. No bali measures in the
future.
The citadel of protection must be RACED
before we can assure the people the fruits
OF the victories they win. The wooden
horse of alliance with protection demo
Gratis will always be fatal to a consumma-
ton of our purpose with reference to
tariff revision. The surrender of one lot
of principle, no matter how brilliant the
immediate advantage, should net receive
an instants consideration. The Cor
mans and Brices are more dangerous to
democratic success than are the McKin-
leys and Reeds. They are insidi Gus and
kill by poison, The others are open
enemies.

THE republican convention took six
ballots for governor last night and ad-
journed at 1870 until this morning.
Thomas Blackstock put himself in noml-
nation n a characteristic speech. Up
ham had clear lead from the start. On
the first BALLOT he had y votes and on
the 9Th, 40. Scofield, who stood second
on the first ballot. changed places with
Haugen on all the other ballots. Hau-
gen had Ga votes to begin with and end
ed with IS. 1t looks as # Upham would
be the nominee.
The platform is brief and takes the
side Of labor, as against capital. 1t was
an attempt at a straddle, but the party
party fell on the labor side of the fence.

What Is Croft?

The origin Of croft" itself is "wrop
in mystery" 1t is very old English
term, appearing in the charters of title
deeds OF estates rs long ago as the reign
OF Edgar, where the phrase "at the
crofts head is quoted by DR.. Murray
but 1t remained long unrecOgnized in
the literary language. The old Eng
llsh form, like the modern one, is
croft, meaning an inclosed field: in
Lowland Scotch it appears generally in
the form craft, which is still employed
III many derivatives; but the only other
Teutouic equivalent in the sister Ian
guages IS the Dutch word "kroft. "
which means ID piece of high and dry
land. IA field on the downs. "a rocky
headland." In the north of England,
according to Ray. the word croft" i'm
plies neighborhood to a house; but IN
the south it is applied to any small in
closure, near building or otherwise.
DR.. Murray's English Dictionary
gives several uses of croft in early
times, though not for the most part in
what can fairly be called literature
AS he stood in his croft. says legal
writer of the thirteenth century, whose
spelling and grammar | mercifully
modernize: while Piers Plowman writes:
Birds come into my croft and crop my
wheat" Early in the sixteenth century
Fitzherbert defines curtylage (what-
ever that may be) as "a lytell croft or
court to put in catell for a TYNE" In
the seventeenth century the phrase oc-
ours: "All ould tenants shall have a
croft and a mellow" which sounds as if
it came out of a crofter commission re-
port. But it was Milton who first en-
nobled the plebeian word by admitting
it frankly into immortal poetry. The
Spirit in "Comus" says to the Elder
Brother:
This have ] learned

The minority report of Senator Allen
on the sugar investigation is much the
better Of the two. There can be no doubt
that the American Sugar Refinery Com
pany has always had great deal to do
