Mr.. j. j. Kuelling, now of Mineral
Point, formerally of Montfort. Benton

political pastures (fat it is hoped) at the
seat of national government, is like
unto the fellow who was troubled with
a hornets nest in his trousers. and is
up in the air" clawing ut the Tribune
because of what this paper had to say
concerning his earning his salary by
writing articles complimentary Of Con-
gresham Babcock. Neghbor kuelling
finally reached the conclusion, in his
article published in the Iowa County
Democrat last week, that the Tribune
was a chronic grumbler" and then
settled calmly in the halo of his won
derful discovery.
Chronic grumber I" These words
are charming, either collectively or
singly. Every member of the human
family has chronic ailment of some
kind. Thanks be that of the Tribune is
not of the same nature as what ham
pers kuelhng, DER which the mantle of
love and truth is here forgivingly spread,
To get at the meaning of grumber, as
in this instance applied, consult the
corporation stalwart dictionary. The
definition therein reads thus: cone who
advocates honest government and the
fultillment of constitutional provisions
in the interests of the common people;
one who opposes grafters, boodlers, cor
rupt combines, etc, etc.
Neighbor Kuellings plant that he

dent is revelation, and is regarded
as a misfortune, particularly for those
readers of his contributions who have
no other means of familiarizing them
selves with governmental affairs, as it
leaves the impression that Wisconsin
has only one representative at the ma
tional capital while in fact we have,
including the two senator's, twelve
other representatives, all noted for
their ability.
1t would seem ungrateful of the
Tribune to stop here and not extend
thanks for the compliment, as there
is much honor in being classed with
those who plead for, who insist on, hon
iesty III pubic officials whereby all may
enjoy the blessings Of q government for

founders; and in return express hope,
which we do with all sincerity, that
