State Journal: We have moth:
in to say personally against the
gentlemen composing the Demo
cratic state ticket. So far as we.
know them, they are intelligent
and reputable gentlemen. None
of them, however. have ever been
CONSPICUOUS in public life. Judge
SAWYER, and some of the other
candidates have held minor po-.
sitions, but they have hau no
experiences that give assurance
of their fitness for managing the
state government. But conced-
ing their qualifications they are
running on a free silver, populis-
tic platform. One of the eandi-
dates has been for years an
avowed populist. The reason
the effort forfusion with the pop
ulists fslled was not on account
of an aversion to populism, but
because it was contended that
fusion would lose them more
votes from the better class OF
Democrats, than it would bring
to them from the populists. It
was a question of policy with
them and not a principle. There !
is one thing every intelligent man
must know-the success OF the
Democratic ticket would be hail
ed throughout the country as a
victory for free silver and Bryan
ism. The people do not want
this. A marjority, and large
majority Of VISIONS voters arc
in favor Of a sound curl ency. If
they will vote their convictions,
the Republican majority will be
very large.

Now and then, we hear of some far
mer having been duped by n contract
and 'note,'' which he has signed for
some new tangled machine or scheme.
The safest plan is to not sign yotff name
to any of the donbtfuE papers presented
by strangers. If one of the contract
fakirs calls on you,politefy refuse to have
any truck with him; if he persists in
bothering you, kick him off the premises;
if he gives you the sign OF the latest
benevolent order give him two kicks.
Those fellows play Fraternity" ''rplig-

Republican Candidates.

The time is near at hand when
the Republicans will select their
nominees for county Offices. Can
didates for the several Offices are
being mentioned in different
parts OF the county and before
the convention is called, doubt
less, many other announcements
will be made. The clash in the
/ democratic convention last Wed
nesday is sure to add q large
number of votes to the regular
republican majority. 1t behoovs
the republicans to nominate good
men for every Office. It has been
rumored that the leaders of both
the democratic and republican
parties have made an arrange
ment whereby a number OF the
important Offices will be left
blank on the republican ticket so
that there will be no cOntrovers
ey at the polls. We are not
aware that any such arrange
ment has been made, Or even
thought Of, excepting perhaps
the office Of county treasurer
and as to that office the matter
will doubtless be left to the dele
gates from the town Of ArbOr
Vitae as we know of no can IL
date for that office from the
towns Of Eagle River and Min
ocqua. We favor the nonlina-
ton of full republican ticket il
suitable candidates desire the
nominations and the NEWS
pledges it's support to all such
nominees. We have no choice Of
candidates before the convention

strangling. 1t had nearly ceased to breathe.

Cotton Letter

New York, -March 1.-The cotton market was very dull today and. a shade lower. Liverpool declined one sixty-fourth. This report was considered unfavorable and our market opened one to two points lower. The demand, however on limited orders was excellent and such selling as occurred made little further impression on prices. After the opening stagnatlon was the chief feature of the day and fiuctua- tions were very narrow. The weeks move ment was extremely heavy. May opened at SIS, fuctuated between 615 and 6.17, and closed at 6.l6 to 6.17 with the tone of the market quiet and steady. Local operators are decidedly mixed on the outlook and are much puzzled to determine what direc- ton tine next important movement will take RIORDAN & co.

New York Cotton Market.

New York, March 1.-The net result of today's dealings in cotton futures and the scope of fluctuations was most unsatiSfac- tory to the trade in general. After open ing quiet at unchanged to a decline of ? points the latter being in sympathy with less favorable cables than looked for. there was scarcely a points variation during the session Speculation was chiefly of the scalping order and srnal1 even at that. The pronounced firmness of primary markets and continued active export demand checked any pressure to sell, while on the other hand port receipts continued on a lib- eral scale and investment was exceedingly light. There was some selling early In the session for the account of English and southern houses, but this cotton was ab- of'beI by the stronger bulls and less con fident shorts.

 Paine, Murphy & Co.'s Stock Letter.
 Birmingham Ala- March 1.-The general market opened dulI and featureless. Con- mission houses had few orders and Lon don did nothing. There seemed to be dis position among the small holders to hqui- date and the scalping element put out small lines short. Later the daily rumors regarding the Cuban situation, while em- anating locally from newspaper bulletins had some effect, and the whole list became heavy. The Washington contingency be- lieve in lower prices and say over Sunday will bring official developments that will make the situation serious. There was no large liquidation, but the actual feverish- ness and uncertainty prohibited any buying of note, despite railway earnings showing great increases. The lower Wall street crowd sold Sugar and the Traction stocks The declines of the day extended from l to points, with partial recoyeries near the close. Conditions being ignored for possible complications. Opinoins over night are mere guess work.
 .- Paine Murphy & Co.'S Grain Letter
 Birmingham, Ala, March 4.-Cables re- ported foreign markets fractional lower, demand moderate. The opening in Chi cago was slightly higher than last nights 8 closing figures. Prominent brokers had large selling orders for outside account supposed from St. Louis and New York and principally for May delivery. Under this pressure prices steadily declined, meet ing With little Resistance. as the demand was very Hmtied, May option declining to 1O4A, closing within a fraction of the lowest point for the session and IA under eyester- day July delivery showed loss of cent, in sympathy with May. Liberal liquidation by large holders was a feature in today's market; weakness was also assisted by the increase in the Argentine visible supply, which was reported at 3,360,000 bushels against 1000 bushels last year. The bull clique took no active part today. War news was ignored, clearances comparative 1y light and receipts liberal. Corn and oats showed a slight loss in sympathy with wheat. Provisions suffered under the in- fiuence of liberal sales by the bear crowd.
