great capacity for being disagreeable.
A few years ago he put forth a book
entitled ''The Gentle Art of Making
Enemies" a science in which Whist
Ter is a master. And he is still living
up to the principles laid down in that
book
He exhibited at the recent art ex-
position in Venice, where eight prizes
for pictures were awarded, one of $500
being awarded to Mr. Whistler. 1t is
not at all improbable that he may get
in a great huff because he did not
receive the first prize of $1,000, or all
OF them. He is quite capable of. doing
this, as his action some years ago,
when he was awarded a .second-class
medal at the International art exhi-
oition at Munich proves. On that oc-
casion he wrote to the secretary of the
committee in these terms:
"Sir-I beg to acknowledge the re-
celpt of your letter, officially informing
me that the committee awarded me
a second-class gold medal. Pray con-
vey my sentiments of tempered and re-
spectful joy to the gentlemen of the

AND NOW General John NJ. Schotield
is no longer in command of the United
States army, but is a private citizen.
He takes into retirement the good will
and best wishes of a grateful and
powerful people. It is more than likely
that he is the last man who will have
conferred upon him the proud title of
Leutenant-General, that title that has
only been enjoyed by Washington,
Scott, Grant, Sherman, Sheridan and
himself, until this country shall have
had another great war. May General
Schof1eld's life in retirement be long,
happy and peaceful.

HARRISON IN a DOUBLE ROLE.

1t is quite pastime to refer to some
of our morning Republican contempo-
rary's former sayings on silver and
the tariff, and contrast them with its
more. recent utterances. For instance,
at one time it pointed to President
Harrison as a fast friend to silver and
applauded his efforts in its behalf
when he sent commissioners to the
European bimetallic conference. But
that is all forgotten, and now we find
these remarks from the same source,
in controversy with another paper:
AT that very time President Harri-
son was notified that unless in the
course Of his administration he did the
right thing by silver, did something to
sion this perpetual fall in prices, did
something to arrest the growing poy-
erty of producers, when the people
once more got a chance at the ballot
they would utterly overthrow the
party in power. He did not believe it.
He waited until the last year of his
administration and then made a call
for an international conference, and
did not outline at all in that call what
he wanted. or what the American peo-
ple wanted, and named as commits
sioners to it from the United States
men quite half of whom were gold
men. and who went to the conference
in the interest of the gold power.
What. Perpetual fall in prices"
.'growing poverty of producersr' This
under Republican protection in an era
Of "unexampled prosperity What
does it all mean? And so Harrison,
after all, was playing into the hands

IL IS Loaded.

From the perpetual references to
lead in the columns Of Republican
contemporary, we are led to suppose
that the complaint with which it is
troubled, the symptoms of which are
so painfully apparent, is lead poison
ing. What the Democrats have done
for lead; what the Wilson bill has not
done for lead; how fifty per cent of
the duty has been taken from lead;
and so on, day after day, till it is
evident shat our neighbor has lead on
the brain.
The present quotation of lead in New
York is 1925 What was it before the
Wilson bill was passed? From S9.05 to
S3.15. While the duty on lead, accord
ing to our contemporary, has been re-
duced 30 per cent, the market price is
about the same as it was for a long
time before the reduction took place,
if anything a trife higher.
That is like all the predictions Of
ruin in reference to the reform tariff
bill. Instead of bringing everlasting
disaster and universal Smash times
are brighter, industries are f1ourishing,
wages are increased and throughout
the east, in the places which were
formerly protected nearly to death,
life, energy and advancement are seen
on every hand.
It is of no use to throw lead at the
Democrats any more. Nor to pull
wool over the eyes of the masses, nor
to hold up the ruin bugaboo as a scare
crow. The people understand the
humbug of Republican alarms and pre-
varications, and will not be beguiled
by them in 1895. This is a Democratic
year.

In Regards To Second Terms.

In referring to the claims of gov
ernor for denomination, the Oshkosh
Northwestern says: ''Thus it will be
seen that Of the ten one-term COVER
nors, four were renominated but failed
of a reelection before the people,
Messrs. Barstow, Washburn, Taylor
and Hoard, while five failed of re-
nomination, to-wit, Messrs. Farwell,
Bashford, Solomon, Lewis and Lud-
ington, and one died, L. P. Harvey.
So, as far as precedent goes, there is
about as much in favor of a single
term as against it. And yet, unless
there was some good reason against it,
there seems 10 be an unbroken Gus
tom of honoring a governor with a
second nomination. In the case of
Solomon, Lewis and Ludington the
good reason" was the presence in the
convention of a majority of the dele
gates in favor of the other fellow. This
is situation which is sometimes very
illogical, but decidedly important to the
candidates.

A Hunters Lucky Escape.

The following deer story taken from
the Pilot Review at Wausau, is taken
with a degree of doubt in our mind that
such an experience ever happened, yet
people an idea of how vivid our friend
Eugene Thayer's mind is:
The deer season opened last Friday
al Kelly the same as it did in all places
in Wisconsin and Ed. Lille, of that
place, was not the only person who
went out to try and get a nice piece OF
venison. But probably he was one OF
the most unfortunate as his experience
was not, while exciting, a very enjoy
able one. He had left his home only a
few minutes, when he was surprised as
we'll as startled on seeing a deer making
directly toward him. The deer was a
two-year-old buck with horns about
FIVE inches long and very dull, which
latter proved a lucky thing for Mr..
Lille. Ed. waited a moment, until
the deer was just in front of him when
he pulled up his gun to fire but was
more frightened to discover that his
gun was not loaded. He did not have
much time for meditation however, as
the animal came straight for him and
jumped striking him with his front feet
and knocking him down. The deer
seeming to grasp the situation at a
glance kept on bunting and walking all
over him. Ed. thought his time had
come and was preparing to say his
prayers when he thought if he could
only make his faithful dog hear a
whistle he might be sayed. The dis
ways the dog heard the call and made
double quick time to reach his MASTER
side. Upon the dogs arrival the deer
was Immediately grabbed by the throat
and held until Ed. could load his rifle
and put bullet into his carcass. Thus,
luckily, the deer was killed instead OF
Ed. who it looked at one time had
surely met his fate, but besides a few
bruises and scratches Mr.. Lille is O. K.

County Fathers in Session.

The regular annual meeting of the
County Board is in session at the Court
House this week. They were called to
order at 2 O'Clock Tuesday afternoon by
the chairman Geo. H. Smith. The first
day was occupied in assigning the work
on hand to the different committees
Another communication from the Hon.
Chas. NJ. Webb in regards to the selec-
ton of jurymen was read by Geo. L.
Williams. An ordinance regarding the
appointing of a Board Of Emigration to
act in connection with the State Board
was read and introduced by Mr..
Williams. F. A. Cady read "Code of
Rules governing other county boards
and moved that the chair appoint a
committee of three to select such code
as they deemed necessary. The chair
appointed Messrs. F. A. Cady, L. M.
Nash and E. P. Arpin as such committee.
Other business was transacted OF
minor importance which will appear in
the proceedings next week. The Board
will be in session all week.

Murder is Dangerous.

The conviction of Holmes and Durrant
emphasize the fact that this is bad
time for murderers.
Twenty years ago it was the boast OF
the criminal classes that hanging for
murder is played OUT" and the boast
was justified. By an abuse Of the plea
of insanity and by virtue of a certain
sentimentalism that then prevailed the
slayers of men were permitted to
escape either with no punishment at all
or with slighter terms of imprisonment
than we give to comparatively minor
offenders. There are men conspicuous
to-day in politics or business who would
have been executed for their homeicides
if their ofenses had been committed
within the last two or three years.
A great change for the better is at
hand. The insanity plea must now
be supported by trustworthy medical
testimony before jury will accept it as
an excuse for the apparently deliberate
killing of human being. The senti-
mentalism that formerly biased
judgment is no longer dominant. The
"provocations which were formerly
held to be excuses for homicide are
infrequently accepted as such.
Courts, juries and the public have
come to hold men of homicidal mind to
much more rigid accountability than
they did twenty years ago, and the
change is a great gain.-The World.

COMPLIMENTS.

Miss Floy Philleo, of Grand Rapids,
and Miss Mollie Connor, of Auburndale,
received the following press notice in
Tomahawk in a recent concert there in
which they took part:
Miss Philleo, who is a sister of Mrs.
J. d. Cutter, of this city, has voice of
considerable power and unusual rich
ness of tone, and exhibits very careful
culture and undoubted musical ability.
She sings with remarkable uniformity
of control of her voice in all registers,
and should be complimented upon the
careful taste with which her repertoire
was evidently selected. She was re-
peatedly recalled and it would be diff
cult to say which of her selections was
most pleasing, though the last number,
'The Lost Eurydice'' by Gluck, was al
most faultlessly rendered, and offered a
fitting finale to very brilliant program.
Miss Connor's reading was artistic
and refined and showed a thorough
interest and judicious study in her pro-
fession. Of her selections, which were
all good, ''The Tenor" was much the
most effective and took the house by
storm.
