MARK BARNUM has written an expla-
nation of the Minnie Bracdock letter
which he published and which was such
a reflection on the character of the dead
Ella Maley that he was sentenced to six
months imprisonment in the RichIand
Center jail. The explanation is practi-
cally an apology which has been too long
deferred. The wretched condition in
which our libel laws are, which made it
incumbent on Barnum to prove bis in
nocence, diverted attention from the
grave character Of his offense Mr.. Bar
mum had no intention of blasting the
memory of a dead GIRL but he did SO
nevertheless, and it is a pleasure to know
that he Is willing to admit how grievous
was his error, With proper and Just
libel laws Barnum would have Jared no
better than he has. But in that case he
would not be the recipient of sympathy
except IN SO far as sympathy goes ont to
an 1mpulsive man who seeks TO right
what he deems wrong without con-
sIdering the injury he does IN the methods
he employs. Character should not be
tritled with except on incontestable
proof and then only when the good
greatly counterbalances The harm done.

WIN. CURTIS, the correspondent of The
Chicago Record says that Mckinley while
chairman of the committee on WAYS and
Means favored the reciprocity clause of
the tariff measure known as the Mckinley
law. But admits that this clause was
written by Blaine and was not in the
original measure as prepared byMckinley.
Granting that Mckinley did favor it, he
did rot originate it. And isn't 1t a little
singular that on this matter as we'll as
on other questions of public character.
Mchlnley's position does not seem to be
clearly defined?
On the silver question Mckiuley's own
utterances are used to show that he is
favorable TO free silver But his friends
can quote from him that he is in favor of
the gold standard. 1t was reported that
he fought the reciprocity feature of the
law which bore his name. 1t is reported
that he favored it. He is called the
champion of the people; he Is charged
with having his campaign managed by
wealthy corporations. Truly he is q
many sided man. And this is the man
for whom Wisconsin republicans are
wildly enthusiastic

REPURLICANs in Wisconsin will never
learn from experience. There was a tidal
wave for Upham for governor and they
yielded TO it. 1t was simply a shrewdly
manipulated move on the part of a few
republicans who thought they could make
capital ont Of President Llncolns APP
pointment of Upham to West Point. The
thing worked all right and now the diff
Guilty is how to get rid of Upham. The
same path is being followed IN the case of
Mckinley. A lot of fools think Mckin-
ley can make times good and people who
desire to be on the loaded wagon are
shouting for Mckinley. There'll be
weeping and walling and gnashing of
teeth should Mckinley be elected.

Nor much significance can be at
tached to the result Of elections held
this spring. The republicans carry
Milwaukee by a small majority for
that city. The populist vote there
has dwindled considerably. Helms
was elected over Judge Bundy in the
9th circuit. but both are democrats.
James ID. Dick the democratic nomi
nee for circuit Judge of the 18th was
elected over Parks, the present incum
bent and an appointee of Gov. Up
ham. in Chicago the republicans had
the best of it though it was not a
sweeping victory.
