The Green Bay Gazette takes text
from an editorial in The Milwaukee

those politicians who think the end iusti-
fes the means in securing party success.
While newspapers call their evil good
when IT brings success, politicians Will
always do that which gives best promise
Of immediate success Condemnation
winch is general in It's terms is in no way
effective. When we accept the fruits of
evil our condemnation of it is hypocrIti-
cal. Corruption and reprshenEble means
became firmly lntrenched in our political

THs Lutherans OF Illinois will test the

educational institutions TO keep the stars

pie wilt be with the LuthorRns in this
contest. One would think from this flag
craze that the country Is going to the
demcltlon how-wows unless the stars and
stripes are forever within sight. What
Is done IN the echooi and not what ap-
pears Oh the outside Is what makes good
citizens. This paiaver about flags and
bunting and cBnuons and drilling has as
much 10 do with intoxicating patriotism
as carrying cane has to do with the hab-
lis Of gentleman.
Whoever wants ;his csmpmeetlrS style

q sentimental patriotism is his privilege
provided It does not interfere with the

Ism can best be shown by teaching the
lessons OF history and respect for the
laws should not be compelled to adopt
The sentimental feature.

The Milwaukee Journal, 10 reply to a
query OF correspondent, has an editori-
al OF some length on the fac. that at a
recent examination held IN that city out
OF l3O applicants not one passed and only
two attained a standing which entitled
them to a denomination. One of these
two is Manitowoc teacher whase pro-
ficiency in the branches she has studied
ls unquestIoned.
The fault does not lie with the super
intendent of the Milwaukee schools. The
schools were already supplied with the
necessary teachers and the examination
was probably more difficult for this rsa.
son, or perhaps the standard Was raised
The difficulty with the Milwaukee schools
is that a system Of protection prevails
there. The domestic product enjoys
special advantages as against brains de-
veloped in different habitat. A person
who is educated in Milwaukee seems to
be peculiarly endowed, much morefavor.

The table furnished elsewhere of
the value of manufactured products
in the cities of Manitowoc and Two
Rivers as shown by the census re
turns, is highly interesting. The
number of laborers employed in other
work than manufacturing is not given.
The laborers employed in doing
stevedore work, house building, ship
building. &c, would greatly swell the
number given. Manitowoc has not
been considered manufacturing town
in the sense that her main reliance
has been on this industry. But when
the value of the output of our factor
les exceed one million dollars we have
reason to plume ourselves on the
showing. We are now forging ahead
and the census of 1900 will show a
most gratifying increase if we are
true to our own interests.

WILLIAM G. WHITNEY is evidently of
the impression that Cleveland would not
decline another nomination for the presi-
dency if it came with practical unanimity.
Such a nomination would be bad politics.
Whatever strength Mr.. Cleveland would
derive from the evidence of the conf
dence in him of which this would be
proof. would be more than offset bv the
pIe!Iaice entertained against third terms.
Ii Is difficult TO conceive whay this
feeling against third term should exist.
When Washington declined third term
Ia thereby established wise precedent
for tue times. People then used power
placed in their hands to perpetuate that
power and dictatorship might have
been attempted by some one who had
long tasted the sweets of power. TheI G
ID no danger IN third term or III fourth
term now.

The difficulty experienced in running
any institution having multitude OF
stockholders is well exemplified by the
present status of the Commercial Bank CT
Milwaukee That bank closed its doors
during the panic of 1898. but reorganized
many of the depositor taking the amount
OF their claims in stock, The bank paid
all it's debts but now has about decided
to 20 into voluntary liquidation as the
business was not satisfactory, owing &c

TIE situation IN Omaha is quite erlti-
cal owing to the determination OF the A,
p. 4. to clutrol the police OF the city
under the provisions OF law recently
enacted for the appointment of new
police force The A. P. A. board has
appointed It's own force and is about to
make an attempt 70 sacure possession OF
the city property by force. This is con-
dition OF affairs much TO be deplored.
Strife of this nature is more harmful to q
city than the most Obstructive fire. 1t is
something which the better class OF
citizens could remedy If they would make
the proper effort.

illness. He was born in West Prus-
Sia in 1881 and emigrated to this
country in 1856. locating at Two Riv-

Only twice he served the public. once
in the capacity of alderman and once
as assessor. Both positions he filled
to the satisfaction of all. His wife
and seven children survive him. All
Of his children are doing we'll and it
must have been a great satisfaction to
Mr.. Guttmann to know that he had

Total value ofmanfd Products

Tie number of men employed BY the
factories of Manitowoc is just one more
than Two Rivers factories employ though
the wages are considerably more. There
is quite disparity in the value of the
output which Is due almost wholly TO the
value Of the malt manufactured by Rshr's
Sons which greatly swells the figures for
this city. The census report of 1885 hss
been mislaid II the work of moving so
that 8 comparison cannot be made at
