Dodgeville and the Celebration.

Dodgeville editors have an un-
pleasant service To perform. They
are compelled to seemingly defend
proceeding, which in their hearts
they know to be i'll advised, and the
| expression of sectional animosity
on the part of a spiteful element of
the people of that town, against the
better judgment of a large number
| of the best and most level headed
citizens of the place. But for the
| blunder of the Dodgeville fair man
| ayers relative to date of fair, there
| would have been no clash. For that
unfortunate circumstance the Min
| eral Point fair managers were in no
wise to blame, as full statement of
the facts published in these columns,
and never disputed, shows; but
which facts the Dodgeville editors
and the Dodgeville fair managers
wholly ignore. With the impulse of
a boy, who stubs his toe through his
own carelessness, the small-bore fel :
lows, who ran the Dodgeville fair
against a hard snag, turn to kick the
object with which they had collided.
That kick is registered in decision
TO advertise celebration on the 9Th
of July, to draw people away from
Mineral Point on that day, where IA
grand celebration and field dav had
been determined upon and adver-
tised for months previous.
Were it the purpose to celebrate
the National Holiday, and not to in
jure their neighbors, the managers of
the Dodgeville celebration would
naturally have adopted Saturday,
the 3rd, instead of Monday, the 9th,
for the purpose, as many of the cti-
zens there proposed. Had they taxi
en- Saturday for their celebration
they would have convinced the peo-
pie that some sentiment OF patriotism
influenced them; they would have
been sure of a large attendance from
the southern part of the county, both
for their celebration and their fair,
which they cannot now hope to get,
and they would have avoided the
more than suspicion that their deei-
sion to celebrate is but an outburst
of spite.
