Not a Cleveland Victory.

The New York Sun, a leader among
democratic papers that supported
Mckinley in the recent campaign,
sauarely repudiates the claim which
is being set up by administration
democrats generally, and admitted
by few supposedly sapient republic
cans. that the late election was an
endorsement Of and a victory for
Clevelandism. The Sun asserts that
the democratic party would nave
suffered a far more crushing defeat
than it did with Bryan had the cam
paien been conducted on general is
sues with free coinage eliminated. 10
support rs position it cites figures In
New York state, which elected Mr..
Cleveland governor by 10000 major
ity. gave him majority Of 1880 for
president in 1892 and elected rcpub-
Ilcan governor by loo, 100 in 1894. The
Sun quotes results in several other
states to bear out its assertion, as fol-
lows:
Wisconsin gave democratic ma
iority Of $500 in ~. aud republican
majority Of 53,900in '94; Indiana gave
democratic majority OF 100 in w,
and republican majority OF $4,000
i'm "a: Ohio reduced the republican
majority to 1000 in 92, but three
wears Of Clevelandism increased 1t
10 $4,000 In '95. The republicans OF
Pennsylvania increased their major
ity from 63,700 in ~ TO 24f,300 IN VI
Nor did the solid south escape tliis
disastrous influence. Kentucky ~ e
10000 democratic majority in ~ ana
nearly 10000 republican majority IN
90; while Maryland reversed her
democratic majority Of 2l,000 in ~ TO
S,7OOrepublican ma jarity in 30. Even
Tennessee changed her democratic
majority of $4,000 in '92 to u republic
can majority Of 7iS in ~. The vote
in other states II hardly less signlfi-
cant; notably in Illinois. which gave
Cleveland majority Of $500 IA w
and eiected . republican state treas
ufer by majority Of l25,40O III W:
The change in the lower house Of
congress Is hardly less decisive. IN
the fifty-third congress the demo-
Gratis had majority Of ~, while he
republicans had a minority 81 l39 II
the fiftS-fourth.
The milwaukee, Sentinel, quoting
the Sun approvingly says: Between
1894 and 1886 nothing occurred to
change the popular verdict concern
ing the achievements Of Mr. CleNe-
lands administration, so the sun
concludes that it is doubtful if any
democrat nominated on Mr.. Cleve-
lands platform and endorsing his
administration could have carried
half The states or received half the
popular vote recorded in favor Of
Bryan. There is considerable truth
IN what the Sun says. Clevelandism
was undoubtedly sunk out of sight
and out of hearing during the last
few months"

1t requires an enormous amount

FINANCES OF THE FAIR.
Report Of the Secretary and Treasurer

Below IS the financial statement OF
the secretary and treasurer OF the
Southwestern Wisconsin Fair Asso-
citation for the past year. 1t appears
that the fair proper paid expenses Of
the year, and had a surplus OF about
500. For Improvements Of track and
grounds there was paid a little over
$2,l00. On account Of Liabilities for
1896 and previous there was paid
over 5000. nearly absorbing the SLIGO
received from the state last February.
The amount due from the state next
February is being drawn against to
pay premiums.
The association total Indebtedness
to begin the new year with is found
to be misunderstanding OF $l,S60.00
of old certificates of Indebtedness,
secured by mortage, and $l,520 Of
unsecured claims OH account OF inn
proyements Of 1896. Assets: 5000,
of capital stock unsold, about 800
cash in the treasury, and grounds
and buildings of the association es-
timated at $4,000. When all the stock
is sold and the avails with cash in
treasury applied to payment of in
debtedness, the association will be
on good financial fpoting-owing but
about 1890 on its entire property.

RIneiay rs Rat.

A sangulnary and mortal combat
took place in this city last week. The
battlefield was W. II. Stones garden.
The belligerents were blueiay and a
gray rat. The bird has nest near
by and instinctively recognizing Mr..
Rat as an enemy to her expected brood
attacked him The battle was terrif-
ic and without quarter The bird
would hover over the rodent and
whenever he would attempt to get a
way She would dart down and with
her beak strike him violently in the
back and be away before his ratship
could find his tormentor After pro-
longed fight the rat turned on his back
hoping to be able 70 repel the birds
assaults from this position but with
out success. The bird kept up such
a desperate and furious assault that
the rat was vauquished and killed and
its lifeless body pounded, pecked and
scattered till the jays deadly hate
was appea-ed

The Grehe cllnrer Case.

At the termination Of the hearing
in the case Of the state against Henry
Grebe for the abuse Of Alta Ginger,
Justice McGonigal held Grebe to APP
pear in circuit court. Failing to give
the required bond OF $500 he is now
confined in the county Jail.
After the examination was conclud-
ed, the mother Of the girl came to
District Attorney Lowry and Justice
McGonigal and said she had been
mistaken when she testified concern
ing the girls age; that Alta was born
IN 1882 instead Of 1888. The grand
fa cher Mccartney. and his son, Atlas
ancle said the same thing. and the
grandmother also asked to change
her testimony concerning the girls
age. John Ginger. Atlas father,
still insists that he is correct as to the
girl being born in 1883 and says the
circumstances were such thathe could
aot be mistaken.
If she was born in 50 she was 40
days over "A years Of age 1T the time
Of the crime and it makes all the diff
ference Of So years il prison to q
months in Jail for Grebe if the father
is mistaken. AT the time Alta was
born, Mrs. John Ginger was waited
apon by DR., p. A Clark, and he is
dead The district attorney has sent
TO Mrs. Clark to ascertain if there i
any record 6f the event remaining in
the doctors books and expects an an
swer this week II there is not, the
chances are even up for Grebe and he
will probably 90 free from the first
charge unless other witnesses come
with the testimony that Alta Ginger
was born in 1888.
