DOES not the Union understand that
10y bucking the paving of Prairie ave-
nue. this spring it is bucking its local
party's platform? If it will stop and
ask itself what other significance there
was to the resolution passed by the
council at its last meeting concerning
this paving, than merely to take issue
with the platform proposed by the re-
publican club for the republican party
platform, it will probably learn why it
shows republican tendencies in the
approaching city campaign,

IN.Fond du Lac they are discussing
the electric railway about the same as
we are here. A large majority of the
people and aldermen are in favor of
the railway But there are some
amendments which are to be made. For
instance, they will only allow one track
on Main street and the life of the
franchise is to be cut down from ninety
nine years to forty years. With these
amendments and few minor ones the
franchise will undoubtedly pass at the
next meeting, which will be March %.

The editor of the Gazette stands
convicted of not understanding the
plainest of English words. 1t quotes
from our editorial of Saturday in which
we plainly told him that no such meet
ing as he had been describing was
held. He wakes warm under the col
lar against this statement, and ex-
citedly shouts that he will give this
paper ST. per word if we will show him
where he ever made any such asser-
ton! That is pretty rich. We will
make the remark again. No such
meeting as the Gazette describes was
held. Now we can get still more fun,out
of this if the Gazette will offer So a
word if we will find that assertion in
its columns. Perhaps it might make
itself more effective if it will raise its
bid to So.
Now, for few "more and positive
facts. No one from out of the city
was at that meeting. 1t was purely a
city affair. The name of John G..
Slater was not put forward as a candi-
date. In fact he is not now, and has
not been, a candidate. We do not see
why Mr.. Skaters name should be thus
dragged into the discussion. He is a
gentleman of excellent attachments
and OF high character, and is not con-
cerned about the affairs of an alleged
secret meeting from which edicts'
were sent forth, and must deprecate
the use of bis name in this way.

THE Washington correspondent of
the Times Herald says that Henry G.
Payne expects to succeed John l..
Mitchell in the senate two years hence,
and that if he (Paynel needs the help
of the administration in this he will
have it. Then the administration is to
attempt to monkey with our local state
affairs, is it? Not if the voters under
stand the scheme.

But for person who is disinter
ested, or as nearly SO as anybody can
be, the weighing of the acknowledged
evils of department stores against their
acknowledged benefits is not an easy
task. No attempt to do this, SO far as
we have noticed, has been made either
in the platforms which declare in favor
of legislation to restrict the scope of
these stores, or by the legislative COM
mittees which report that these stores
have no soul. Nobody has suggested
modus viyendi by which department
stores can do business without iniuriDg
and sometimes running their smaller
competitors, and no sane person is
prepared to say that the carrying on of
more than one kind Of business in a
single establishment must be abolished
by law. Milwaukee Sentinel.
The latter end of this paragraph is
very close to the style of temporizing
which is INDUCED in by the supporters
of all sorts of monopolies and trusts.
Instead of taking hold of an acknoWl-
edged evil and attempting to assist in
arriving at solution of the problem, it
simply asks the injured parties what
are you going to do about it," 1t is
undoubtedly true, as the Sentinel says,
that no modus viYendi has been pro-
posed. Perhaps the reason for this lies
in the fact that the department store
evil is one of very recent growth. 1t
has but very recently reached the
point whereat it becomes sufficiently
menacing to call general attention to it.
That being the case, and no solution
having been proposed, it behooves
every editor who has spark of philan-
thropy in him at set at the problem
with an earnest endeavor to see what
can be done. 1t may be necessary to
tax or license them into proper bounds.
