REPUBLICAN TICKET.

The most notable current event of
the past week was the assassination of
King IIumbert of Italy by a man
named Angelo BrcSSi, an Italian, who
until May 18th was employed in the
silk mills of lIamil & Booth at Pater-
son, n j. BreSSi was an anarchist
who had been chosen to commit the
daStardly deed which he cody per-
formed on July Both. In this country
there is no sympathy anywhere for the
anarchist or his doctrines and they
have never tlourished here. They are
Il legitimate product Of deSpOtiSm, but
the objects of their fury, as in this
case, are often men far removed from
dcSpotiSm. No cenSure can be too
severe in cliaraCteriZing this tigeriSh
human society, who suggest nothing
for the amCliOratiOn Of human ills, and
attempt the destruction of government
bv the removal OF rulers by the bloody
hand of the assassin. The dangerous
character of the man BreSSi was not
suspected by his associate laborerS in
he New Jersey mills where he worked,
As he WAS of a quiet temperament and
was regarded as an inOffenSive man.
He is said to have Il wife and daughter
living in llObOken, whom he visited
regularly every Sunday while living in
this country.

WISCONSIN RIVER VALLEY.
The Trip Of the Newspaper Editors And What
They Learned.
Oshkosh Northwestern.

Oshkosh Northwestern.
To many Of the newspaper men of
the state the trip through the valley
was revelation. Few of them had
ever before visited the thriving line of
cities which nestle in the valley beside
he majestic river that here and there
breaks into plunging rapids that pro-
vide an ineXhauStible power with
which to turn the wheels of industry.
The visitors were charmed with the
hospitality and public spirit Of the
citizens of those thrifty and rapidly
growing towns that present so many
glowing prospects for a prosperous
future. They were deeply impressed
with the metropolitan and thoroughly
up-tO-date appearance of such stirring
cities as Grand Rapids, Stevens Point,
WauSau, Merrill. TOmahawk and
Rhinelander. Some of these places,
scarcely a score of years removed from
the virgin forest, were the source Of
WOnderment in their enterprise and
modern push. Wealth and culture
find in them luxurious homes and the
vast numbering and manufacturing
interests which are the foundation of
their material prosperity are among
the most extensive in all the great
state of Wisconsin.
But what strikes the visitor more
fOrcibly, perhaps, than any other one
thing is the immense water power
capabilities of the Wisconsin river.
The undcVelOped resources in the way
of power are almost incalculable. All
the way from Columbia county on the
south to Oneida county on the north,
the river abOundS in the choicest Op-
pOrtunitieS for almost unlimited water
power. Every city and settlement
along the river has its water power in
a more or less developed state. The
great projects of the future are based
on this immense natural advantage.
Along the lower river many enter
priSeS for the development of this
great water power are already in con-
temptation, and on the upper waters,
the famous TOmahawk dam is one of
the wonders of modern engineering,
combined with a natural reservoir that
is marvellous in extent. And yet with
all the opportunities and resources
presented not tenth as yet been made
available for the enrichment of the
valley. The future holds out en-
ormouS possibilities. The al
lurements for capital and skill
| in Harvesting these gigantic forces
OF nature to the will and service OF
man are ever existing and ever press
ing. In years TO come this Wisconsin
river region will be the wonder of the
western empire.

A Democratic Tribute To Minor.
From Green Bay Gazette.

From Green Bay Gazette.
The Appleton Crescent goes so far
as to voluntarily cOncede that. Con-
gresham Minor has been a faithful
and efficient public servant. At the
same time it acknowledges that the
real motive of those opposed to him is
not the public good but merely the
securing of the Office for some one else.
no matter how disastrous a change at
this time may be to pending legiSla-
ton.
The Crescent does not deny that Mr..
Minor personally and promptly at
tends to all business placed in his
hands as representative, an acknOW-
ledgment that. anybody would make
regardless of party, SO did Mr.. Barnes
when congressman. He saw duty and
accepted its obligations, but that fact
cuts no figure in leSSening loyalty to
ones party, neither does it in the
present case. Mr.. Minor has already
served two terms in congress and the
people are not in favor of three
termerS.
Whatever else may be said of this it
is an honest statement of the case of
the opposition to Mr.. Minor. But
when the Crescent says that the pcO-
pie are opposed to third terms in the
matter of congressman, it errS. The
people are disposed to regard public
servant in congress in much the same
way they regard private servant.
When they find an efficient one, they
desire to keep him. 1t is Well-knOwn
fact that the reason the eastern states
exert such a strong influence in the
national legislature, is because they
have learned by experience to return
in congress, men who have proved
themselves to be faithful and efficient.
Mr.. Minor has by the word of the
democrats themselves been good and
faithful servant of the people and,
therefore, the people will indorse him.
