NOTES FROM MAPLE GROVE

Mrs. Alice Burke of Chicago is Wis
iting friends here.
Mrs Mayerl and son, Willie, are
visiting friends in Franklin
Mrs. James Cavanaugh of Milwau-
kee is visiting relatives in Maple
Grove
Mr., Dan Hickey of Chicago was
called home last week by the death of
his mother
Mr.. Frank Halloran, a well known
resident of Cato, died on Thursday
OF last week. The remains were in,
tered at Maple Grove Saturday.
There is no scarcity of political
speeches i'll this vicinity, and Maple
Grove is no longer neglected by the
philanthropic political educators.
Most Of our teachers say they have
a poor attendance of pupils. This is
due to the fact that many pupils do
not begin work until long after the
term commences, and many too, who
are too young to do any work of con
sequence on the farm. How much
better parents know the wants of their
children, than the state.
Mrs. John Hickey died on Thurday
OF last week. She was an invalid for
for several years and for the past few
months was confined to her bed.
During her illness she suffered much,
but she bore her lot with remarkable
fortltude. She was a loving consider
ate mother who thought the education
of her children duty; and d staunch
friend to those who called her friend.
The remains were inferred at Maple
Grove Sunday. The Brillion branch
Of the G. X. of Wis. attended the
funeral in a body, Mr.. Hickey being
a member of that branch,

Mr.. BRYAN is very unfortunate IN the
character of his attack upon the National
Democrats. He is on record as saying he
you'd net support the nominee of the
Chicago convention if the platform fav
ored a gold standard. His words on an
other occasion when asserting his lnde-
pence OF convention action were: II
shall follow the dictates Of my own con-
science, | would rather have the approval
of my own conscience than that of the
whole world"
He Is attacking the National Demo.
Gratis on new line. He says they are
towards because they do not come ont for
Mckinley and are voting for men whom
they know cannot be elected. For whom
did Mr.. Bryan vote in 1892? Weaver.
Did he think Weaver could be elected?
Why did he not vote for Harrison out
right? Why did he not for Cleveland
The contest was known to be between
these two men and Weaver's chances
were known to be no good. But Bryan
voted for the populist. Is his record
such that he can now preach duty to
democrats?

Bon SCHILLING is ready to make reply
to any man in the world. Bob has coz
siderable ability but far more assurance
and the letter has taken the place of
ability. 1t requires some self-assurance
to reply to man of Scburtz' reputation
but Schllling undertook 1t with as much
confidence as he would order a beefsteak

ing can make an intelligent argument,
but though forclble, 1t is shallow. But
he is the democratic nominee for con.

that either party would gladly send him

The opposition raised in Illinois, In
diana and New York to permitting the
National Democratic ticket to ploce on
the official ballot is supremely silly. be-
cause no advantage can result from it to
those interposing the objection. II the
election laws are the same in every state
as IN this, the objection is simply factious
as the right to place on the official bal
lot is certain.
Such extreme concern for party inter
est is apt to prove more injurious than
beneficial. People like fair play, even in
election matters and deem it more honor
able to concede point than to exact the
pound of flesh. When right is denied
their approval is apt to take a very prac-
teal turn.

THE energy and industry shown by
Bryan in this campaign seems to be al
most superhuman. He repeats his
speeches, that is be is constantly harplng
against adopting a foreign financial pol
icy and pretending to be the special
champion of the tolling masses. But he
charges his phrasealogy. He must be
possessed Of immense vitality and fur
nishes every evidence from the way he
wristbands fatigue of having led most
exemplary life. A man can hardly show
depth of thought speaking as frequently
as Bryan does, and he disappolnts no one
in this particular. He is an orator and a
man of wonderful physical endurance,
nothing more.

HE eastern question is assuming a
more acute form from day to day. Its
solution can no longer be postponed
with safety. The christian world
seems to be awakening from its torpor
to demand in no uncertain sound that
the unspeakable Turk must vacate
Europe and grant such concessions to
his christian subjects in Asia as will
make them fear no longer the fanati
cism of religious prosecutions. Eng
land realizes that the civilized world
will not tolerate another interference
on her part to bolster up the "sick
mans estate" The Turk must go and
that soon. Will his going bring on an
European war?
1t is to be feared that war cannot be
averted. The character of the inter
ested powers is too well known to adj
NIT of any other conslusion. Russia,
for one, will not be satisfied unless she
be permitted to realize her dream of
making the Black sea Russian lake,
and old Byzantium her capital. But
dare England consent to such an in
crease of territory? Would Germany
or Austria? Already Russia's power
hangs like pail over western Europe.
1t would seem that these nations would
unite to prevent further aggressions.
And yet recent events to do not point
that way. Whenever Russia condo
sends to pot friendly power on the
back it becomes afflicted with blind
ness, and henceforth sees not the
Vaccinations of the northern bear
''The road to Constantinople lies
through Berlin -, declared Russian
statesman years ago. And verify it
appear to be true. Germany has, for
some time, professed a strong attach
ment for Russia, while her Old time
ardor for England has been allowed
to cool. France is the secret ally Of
Russia, Austria is but an echo of Ger
many. Thus England stands alone,
and yet 1t is England which, according
to existing treaties, is morally bound
to stop the horrible barbarities commit
ted in Armenia, Can England, single
handed, do what the situation de
mands? or is she ready for the sake of
peace to permit her giant rival to APP
propriate to herself the choicest parts
of the dominions of the Turk? Hardly;
and yet, unaided, what can England
dO2
In her extremity she has turned APP
pealingly to the UDit9d States. To
gether, they could settle the Turk in
short order But tradition is opposed
to our entering into any foreign en-
tanglements, even in the interests of
suffering humanity. People are SO
imbued with the doctrine of non-in-
reference in European affairs, as
enunciated by Washington, that public
sentiment would have to change won
derfully to make possible an alliance
with England. And yet it is not
among the remote possibilities.
1t is high time that some powerful
nation ignore precedent and brush
aside the principle of laissez faire,
which has enabled the powerful ma
tons to swallow the less powerful. 1t
is for the interests of civilization if
Russia be prevented from getting
Constantinople. But the chances are
all in favor of Russia She is tena-
ciously persistent. She waits but for
an opportune moment. Nay, her
emissaries may be instructed create it,
and suddenly she will take it upon
herself to cut the gordian knot, "and
the fight for plumber will be on"

The silver democrats Of Ashland coun-
ty realize, unconsciously, that fusion has
destroyed their identity. The populists
of that county lately certified a nomina-
ton for the state senate to the secretary
o. state. The silver democrats held a
convention and nominated the same man
the populists did, and certified the NOM
ination as being made by the populist
party, Thus two certifications from one
party came to the office. When it was
learned this would not do, the old party
name, democrat, was taken. 1t is sad
commentary when legal requirements are
necessary to preserve the name.
