POLITICAL orators should aim to be
foaest when discussing political quee
llops. After Oil an Lott at administrator
OF publIc affairs Is what should be sought
and commended 10 matter what rarty is
IN power. 1t Is not the success Of the
party which shonid cause reioisur. but
the success OF the principles the party
advocates. But 1t is undeniable that
when the success OF the party without
reference to what 1t stands for, is the
end sought, the means taken to secure
success are not such as to inspire people
With high ideals Of citizenship. Elections
are demoralizlnR for this very reason.
Elections should be educating. To take
part 10 them should be the highest duty
of citizenship, and being such should
have an elevatlng tendency. People
should be drawn closer In love for the
government because of the performance
of duty toward that government. In
stead. there is feeling of relief when the
battle is over and every one who has
been active IN the contest has a sinking
consciousness that he has dwarfed his
manhood.
An argument frequently used OF late
years IS that the money paid the bond
holders Is better than that paid the pen
ciObSic. Lie oIkuDolJ lS Sp6clOuS anu
misleading IL serves to create prejudice
and that is the object of it's use. 1t Is
untrue and for this reason should be left
| unsaid. There Is no difference in the
value OF money issued or coined by the
United States. Each is on a par with
the other. 1t is kept so largely by the
fact that there is CONVICTION that bonds
will be paid In the quality of money that
was mutually Understood at the time of
their issuance. Let this compact be
broken and the money paid the pensioner
by the government will be OF an inferior
kind. Jbe money paid by the govern
ment to the bondholder is not whit bet
ter or worse than that paid to any one to
| whom It. owes q debt. So far as value
goes there are no two kinds of money IN
the United States. Any one who asserts
otherwise knows he is utuering an I'M
truth, il he possesses ordinary intelll
gence. The facts are too patent to the
searcher for truth 20 need argument.

communication appeared this week
10 the Germanla, Written ostensibly from
Fond du Lac county, IN the interest OF
Arson q. Prescott for circuit judge The
points urged lu favor of Mr. Prescott SO
far as Fond du Lac county Is concerned,
are that Mr.. Prescott was born ID that
county. That Sheboygan has always
stood by Fond du Lac county ID political
matters and there should be return.
That oheboygan is unanimous for Mr..
Prescott. That Sheboygan is centrally
located aud is more easily reached by
Fond du Lac people than Manitowoc.
That 1t has a greater population than
Manitowoc and hence Is entitled TO more
consideration. That Sheboygan county
pays more taxes That Menitowoc has
now a state Official and Steboygan has
none. That Fond du Lac can settle the
question and if it votes with Sheboygan
the favor will not be forgotten.
Then comes the strongest pleas; That
Judge Gibson was compelled to retire be-
cause Il the demands of Judge Klrwan's
friends
That Judge Gibson was the most popu-
lar judge the circuit ever had and Fond
du Lac county, should rebuke kirwan's
friends by voting for Prescott.
That Prescott can speak German and
a knowledge of this language Is essential
to the proper discharge Of the duties of
circuit Judge in this circuit which is large
ly German.
Now as to the facts for which the edl-
tor Of this paper personally vOucnes:
Judge GilsOn's absolute decination
was published 10 The Sentinel on Mon
day, January 81. There was not sig
nature to the call of Judge klrwar IN
Til February 2. On that day the writer
went to Sheboygan and learned that O
call for Mr.. Prescott was out February
|. The call on Mr.. Prescott as publish
ed, bears that date. Ii there was undue
haste, who showed 1t? The communion
ton which appears In The Germania Was
written by Shehoygan man, and pur-
ports to come from Fond du Lac so as
to deceive.
The plea that Mr.. Prescott can speak
German and for this reason should be
elected cannot be properly characterized.
Does Judge Gibson. for whom the article
processes 80 much friendship, speak Ger
man? Is the language of the court Ger
man? Are Its records kept in German?
Was it ever before urged in behalf of
candidate that bis ability to speak Ger
man was necessary qualification for the
position of clrcnit judge? What are court
Interpreters for? In what language is
testimony given in court? Are jurors
selected because of their knowledge OF a
foreign language or because OF their
knowledge of the language used in court?
The attempt to arouse national preju-
dice 90 grounds so lndefensible is an act
deserving censure. Mr.. Prescott is not
German and 1t Is an insult to Germans
to assume that because man speaks that
langna. g they will disregard all other
qualifications and consider only that one.

FROM present appearances war with
Spain Is unavoidable. Such is the opln-
ION Of European statesmen, Congress Is
IN frenzy for war and IL Is probable will
act SO as to prevent negotiations of any
kind looking to an amicabie settlement
of difficulties.
One thing is certain, Spain must cease
her mode Of warfare in Cuba. This is
demand made even by those who think
wa should come only rs last resort. The
United States will not and should not
allow continuation of the barbarities
practlced IN Cuba. Spain has shown her
lnab'ilty to suppress the rebellion. The
lack of success by the insurgents is no
justification Of q continuation of the war
which has been SO Intellectual. II Spain
wlthdrawa her army from Cuba peace
ably, so much the better. II she does
not she should be driven ont. That is
position taken by conservative men
throughout the country.
