supercritical, the chances for in
dorsement are slim.
In one matter Mr.. Peterson is
over-sensitive. Of course the char
acter of the entire administration
is taken somewhat from the char
acter Of its head, but if himself
and the other state officers shall
attend strictly to their own bust
ness and not. go about the state
nauseatlng the people by talking
"unwritten law" and arguing that
the Tinhorn people should be cleo
ted twice because he has been
elected once, they will find little
opposition to their own renomina-
ton no matter how vehemently
Upham may be thrown overheard.
But Mr.. Peterson feels, perhaps not
unnaturally though actually with
out good reason, that a share OF
the odium in which Upham is en-
veloped attaches to him and that
if the head Of the ticket shall be
kicked out into the brush of pri-
vate life where it belongs, the
remainder of the ticket must go
with it.
That assumption will be true
only in case the lesser state officers
shall, instead of attending to their
own business and their own affairs,
combine and attempt to force down
the Threats Of the people an execu-
tive found by actual experience to
be not only undesirable, but facti-
tious, offensive and destructive.
Let the people write their own
"unwritten laws" and choose their
own governors. If they want Up
ham they will have him, and il
they do not they will not have him
and they will turn with HIM also
those papsuckers who go about
the state at the expense of the tax
payers trying to force him down
the public throat.

"TO BE OR NOT TO Be"

The Fond du Lac Common
wealth prints the following:
The Republican party it seems
to US, is under some obligation to
renominate the governor. With
but one eXception-that of Cover
nor Ludington-all the Republi-
can governors of the state have
been renominated. The custom is
good one, on condition that the
governor merits such recognition.
Does the Posi- contend that the
official conduct Of Governor Up
ham has been such that the state
convention is under no obligation
to renominate him?
For the first time being the Posi-
will content itself to answer this
question, Yankee fashion, by put
ting another. Does the Common
wealth hold that Major Upham
would be as strong a candidate
this year, plus his official record,
as he was two years ago, minus
that record? If yea, then how
does it happen that there is SO
much opposition to the renomi-
ton of the governor and also that
this opposition crystalizes around
no other man or men-thus show
ing that it is not inspired by mere
rivals? If nay, then how does it
appear that such a mighty obliga-
ton will rest upon the forthcoming
Republican state convention to
renominate Governor Upham? BY
the time our contemporary shall
have answered these questions, in
its customary man-tashlon, we
may get around to give our ans
wer to its question, as above pro-
pounded, the falling instead Of the
rising infection.

HOT SHOT.

Mr.. Mcmahon, editor of the OAR
lington Republican, in speaking of
the recent election in his county
makes the following editorial
comment:
The republicans carried weights
and were badly handicapped, and
nothing but the great personal
popularity Of their candidate pulled
them through.
The democrats nominated one of
their best and strongest men, and
the party gave him a united sup
port.
The republicans were disguised,
because a special session had been
called, an act which they regard
as unnecessary and expensive
hence they were luke warm. They
were on every hand confronted
with the broken pledges, Inefficient
cies and colossal blunders without
number, of the Upham administra-
ton. They could not defend them
SO many republicans, men who
have grown gray in the service of
the party, either stayed away from
the polls, or voted the democratic
ticket to rebuke the administration
of "the man Of many blunders.'
This may seem to be a harsh
criticism, but it is Gods own truth,
and the time has come to speak
plainly.
The republicans Of Lafayette
county have had a foretaste of
what the campaign will be next
fall-if Governor Upham again
heads the ticket. They believe it
means the loss of the state, le9is-
lative and county tickets. Can we
afford it? There are a million re-
publicans in Wisconsin. Should
the personal wishes of one man,
or the interests of one million be
considered? These are questions
which the state convention will be
called upon to decide. At that
convention The personal wishes, or
ambitions of no man should be
considered. 1t should be gather
ing Of representative men, who are
republicans from principle, and
will represent the people-regard-
less of precedent, lobbyist, Or
hangers on. This is the only road
left open for republican success.

The Elkhorn Independent, Rep,
thus speaks of the recent wordy
warfare of the Madison Journal
and the Milwaukee Sentinel over
Gov. Upham's normal school ap-
pointment:
The Journal had an easy job OF
it, too, because it was telling the
whole truth, while The Sentinel
was trying to bolster man who
can't stay "bolstered." He simply
slumps and Stops and runs all
over while friends are trying to
have him MAINTAIN a perpendicular

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

Surely the times must improve.
They cannot get much worse.
There is cause for a change for
the better. The popular loan has
settled several things. One is
that it is not necessary for our
government to kneel down before
the Rothchilds in search of money
with which to pay expenses when
the governments affairs happen to
fall into the hands OF a Democratic
administration. The people of this
country have gold and are willing
to lend it to the government. That
loan has restored some of the
confidence the money interest of
the country lost when a Free
Trade party got into power. There
is no reason why confidence should
not increase at rapid rate. A
new administration is not far away.
Under that administration Free
Trade and Wilson bills will have
no friends. Old time Protective
times will return. The unem-
ployed will go back to work, and
old time good times will come
again, and to stay a long time. A
burned child breads fire. The
torch will not be lighted again
until a new generation comes
along-until new lot Of citizens
grow up and get it into their heads
that they know it all and can trust
the Democratic party. We pro-
pose that there be at least two

Sheboygan Times: Way down
from Wood County, Gov. Upham's
home, comes a shrill voice as OIL
one crying in the wilderness; and
like to the voice Of some 1880 or
more years ago, it may eventually
bring the entire state to repentance.
The voice, in the clearest tones
urges the nomination Of T. NJ
BlaCkstock for governor. This is
a most striking testimony of the
statewide popularity of our dis
tlnguished fellow citizen. This
year before even one Of his Local
friends or home papers had sug-
gested his name, it surely seems
strange that the Wood County
Reporter should do so. But
throughout the state there are
many people who think the last
convention made a mistake in not
nominating our genial Tom. A
fearless, honest, self-made man
with an abundance Of common
sense to spare is just the man
needed in public office. and SC
seldom found. 1t seems that those
acquainted with the many good
qualities Of Mr.. Blackstock will
not rest until they have presented
him with highest honor in the Gift
of the state, And he deserves it.

DR.. BROWNS CASE
Forecast Of the Verdict Of the
Council

Forecast OF the verdict OF the
Council
SAN FRANCISCO, March 14.-The Con-
gregational council has adjourned until
next week, without finding q verdict re-
garding Rev. c. o. Brown. General be-
lief among those best informed is that the
council will find that Brown has not been
proven guilty of immortality, but that he
has been guilty of unministerial conduct.
This verdict would deprive him of his
present pastorate but would not debar him
from preaching elsewhere if he could OBJ
tain a pulpit. 1t will take several days to
formulate the findings after the council
has finally voted seriatm upon each charge
and specification.
One clergyman, known up and down the
coast. is said to have expressed the belief
his persecution of an innocent girl, and
his turning of an innocent episode to his
own advantage.
The deliberations of the council devel-
oped the extremely important fact that the
charges of intimidation are among the
most serious that are being considered.
The council is more nearly unanimous on
this point than upon any other.

Tia Juana she appeared in high spirits and
chatted gaily with other passengers. She
adhered to her story that she is simply
seeking rest and recreation and could not
be induced to say anything regarding the

LONDON. March 14.-At the International
chess match today the attendance was far
larger than yesterday. The hall was
crowded with experts and amateurs. who
watched closely for the announcement OF
results. The first victory, that OF jackson
over Baird, was loudly cheered, but the tri-
umph of Blackburn over Pilisbury was the
most popular feature of the day. There
was general cheering and clapping Of hands
when this was bulietned. Newnes, the
well-known chess player, quickly grasped
Blackburn's hand at the conclusion of the
game and congratulated him upon the re-
suit. Others present who joined in the
congratulations we're Gunsburg and Hon.

correspondent: $50 far this has been
most friendly and interesting tournament.
and l hope it will be repeated in future
years. [ arm somewhat disappointed be-
cause of Birds loss of one game to Bur-
rille. Bird found that he had made mis-
take and Immediately tried to secure
correction. He cent an informal re-
quest to the committee in charge
asking that he be allowed, but
they ruled that it should stand,
according to rules. The English players
were especially glad when they learned
that Blackburn had won, though they were
sorry that Pillsbury had been defeated.
Pillsbury is very popular here. He is re-
garded as being a thorough good fellow.
Of course we were rather disappointed in
the general result of The tournament, as it
looked last night as though the Englishmen
were going to Win.''
