Editor Munson, summing up the
work and weakness Of the late legis-
lature in letter from Madison to
his paper, the Vernon County Censor,
says he is 'pained to acknowledge
that there is probably not another
state in the Union where the work of
paid lobbyists has such influence as
in Wisconsin. Men who go to the
Legislature with the firm resolve to
stand by the people and their inter-
ests, seemingly become enamored by
the Establishments of the third house
or lobby. Not "a single act has any
corporation asked passed or killed ~
this session but their desire has been
fulfilled. Far too many members for
get that they are representing Others
than themselves. Not until the people
arise in their might, and insist on
sending as their representatives men
well-known for their strength of
character and expressed opinions on
public questions, will this reign of
corporate influence cease in Wiscon-
sin. These are plain words, but tnty
are true

An Excellent Appointment

The appointment by State Treas
urer Peterson Of Hon. f. |. Kidd as
bank examiner, under law Of the
late session creating that office, is one
of the most commendable acts of the
present state administration. Mr..
Kidd Il one OF the best known and
most highly esteemed citizens OF the
state. No man enjoys more fully
public confidence. AS chairman Of
the Joint legislative committee on
claims during two sessions, he dis
tinguished himself by careful scru-
tiny, Just economy and excellent
Judgment 1t was readily recognized
that no unmeritorious or unreason-
able claim, through which money
was sought TO be drawn from the
state treasury, could have the en-
dorsement OF the chairman OF the
claims committee while Mr.. Kidd
held that position.
His appointment as bank examiner
is justified by his special qualifica-
ton as well as by his personal worth.
For six years he has been bank
cashier, having established the bank
at Prairie du Chen and made IT a
success through his careful, judicious
management, passing through the
crisis OF 1913 without the least trouble.
No better evidence Of the wisdom OF
Mr.. Kidd's appointment is needed
than that furnished by his immediate
neighbor and radical political adver-
sary, the Prairie du Chen Courier,
which says:
at is natural for all men to have a
local pride; and as somebody has to
have preferment, we are content to
see Crawford county handsomely
recognized when the "jewels are
passed around" IT had To be done,
and il is we'll that it be well done /;
and the duties are assigned to very
competent man.
Senator II. /. Kidd, the bank exam
iner, is no ordinary person, either III
politics or business. lie IS q banker
at Prairie du Chen, and his success
has been remarkable in politics and
business. He located in this city II
few years ago, and ut once became
Unidentified with industrial enter
prises. Although an ardent republic
can the citizens promptly recognized
his worth and experience in public
matters, and he was elected from the
third supervisor district-one Of the
strongest democratic precincts in
Prairie du Chien--and he is now
president of the democratic city
council.

The Increase in Wages.

pittsburg Commercial Gazette: 1t
is amusing to observe how Justify
the frce-traders crow over the few
increases in wages which have taken
place since the Tariff Reform con-
gross adjourned.
Wages are going up IN spite Of the
democratic party and its free-trade
tariff. After the election of last Mo-
vomber the country began to take
hope. Ii saw the beginning of the end
of democratic rude. Still there was no
visible Improvement in business-no
upward movement in wages. II re-

lief that the reaction has come 70

believe that the republican party

Sraf. There i hope for the future,
and advances I'M wages are the fruits
of that hopo; tho real turning point

Inter Ocean Not to BE Sold.

Rival newspapers of Chicago have
persistcntly circulated Il story to the
effect that the Inter Ocean was TO be
bought up by syndicate of demo-
Gratis, and made an organ Of that
party to replace the Times Herald,
which il lost to democracy by its re-
cent purchase by Mr.. kohlsaat. The
owner of the Inter Ocean feels call
ed upon To deny the report. This he
does through the issue Of last Thurs
day, as follows:
For some time idle persons with
evil intent have been circulating
stories of the sale or intended sale OF
The Inter Ocean. These stories have
been repeated SO often rs to become
anneving to our friends and disturb
ing t. our patrons, and by a simple
denial desire to set them all at rest.
The inter Ocean has not bern S0td and

name was yesterday mentioned IN

chaser docs not and Rfr6t dtd own q

head of the paper.
WM. Penn NIXON,
tt is gratifying to know that Mr..
Nixon will remain At the head of the
paper, rs III that is assurance that
this great and popular journal will
continue to be 4 representative of
the people, whicii il is more distinctly
than any other great daily Of the
country. There never was greater
need then now for strong, able
paper to champion the cause of the
people against the encroachments of
aggregated capital, corporate cor
ruption, and boodling politicians.

Mckinley on Money.

1t is being represented that Me-
Kinley is u gold monometalist OF the
Cleveland stripe, and even reported
that he would leave the republican
party If it did not endorse that policy
in 1896. These representations and
reports emanate no doubt from de-
sire some have to prevent his nomin-
alton for the presidency, and are un-
reliable. Mr.. McKinley's position on
the money question presumably the
same now as in 1891, when in speech
at Toledo he said:
During all of his President Cleve-
land's) years at the head of the gov
ernment he was dishonoring one of
our precious metals, one Of our great
products, discrediting silver and
enhancing the price of gold. He en-
deavored, even before his inaugur,-
ton to office to stop the coinage of
silver dollars, and afterwards to the
end of his administration perslstently
used his power to that end. He was
determined to contract the circulate
ing medium and demonetize one of
the coins Of commerce, limit the vol
ume money among the people, make
money scarce, and therefore dear.
He would have increased the value of
money and diminished the value of
everything else-money the master,
everything else the servant.
