laid on the table reading further, that
as there was light at the Northwest

at the Sandelback corner that the
light was not needed and there was
no need of the extra expense etc.
This is true as to the light on those
corners but the valley between, es

there is no moon; many person hav-

change: ''rhere are more young men

learning trades than there are outside
of them. The principal cause of this
is that you are educating your young
men for idle gentlemen, trying to
make lawyers, preachers, doctors and
cclerks out of material that is
needed for blacksmiths, carpenters,
mechanics and other honest 'hewers

ManItowoc, Wis, where he was
school teacher, county surveyor and
deputy clerk of the circuit court.
Later he studied law was admitted to
the bar and practiced in Milwaukee.
He was elected acknowledgement
with Gov. Harvey in 1860, and upon
the latter's death assumed the ex-
ecutive Office discharging the duties
with credit.
In 1862 his best Judgment and
determination were called for to fill
up the decimated ranks of several
regiments. There was much objsc-
tion to the draft and some riots en-
sued, but the governor stood against
them and crushed down the opposi-
tion, sending a full quota of soldiers
from Wisconsin and preserving the
peace at home, as was not done in
several other states.
Mr.. Solomon was a candidate for
the United States senate in 1869
against Matthew II. Carpenter,
Horace Rublee, G. g. Washburn, and
Fl. Waldo.
On the advice of Gov. Solomon a
militia was organized at home for
protection in Wisconsin during the
Indian massacres in Minnesota and
the gloomy aspect of public affairs.
The governor took che initiative by
dispensing state money for the care of
sick and wounded soldiers during the
war believing that the Legislature
would authorize the expenditures
afterward, which it did.

A BASE PROPOSAL.

A strong effort, backed by in
fiuential citizens, is being made to
secure the freedom of Stensland,
wrecker of the Milwaukee Avenue
State bank, Chicago.
ST think the pardon board will let
the old fellow go, confidently pro-
claims the attorney acting in the
matter, las they must see that he
has been punished enough"
THIS despoiler of homes and blaster
of lives scarcely year in prison and
already punished enough? This rob-
Der of the poor mans hoard, this
vampire on the savings of women and
children who scarcely has had time
TO count the cracks upon his prison
cell, already punished enough2
The old fellow, forsooth Things
have come to a nauseating pass when
terms of affection may be publicly
applied to rascals who have lolled in
luxury on the pennies bled from the
contiding poor.
Again we hear the old maudlin
wall, "Another month of prison life
will kill him - Well, what if it
does? Did he stop to consider the
despair and death that would enter
scores of homes as the result of his
evil practices Did his heart ever
beat at the thought of the suicides
bullet, the broken manhood, the tears
of women and the cries of children
that would follow in the wake of his
foul finance
For every moment of misery, for
every throe of death, which this sell
fish, brutal. goddess creature, this
wolf In human form. inflicted on
innocent, trusting man, he deserves
a million equal throes and moments
that the wage of retribution may
be paid.
There is altogether too much pull
ing sentiment being worked up now
adays in behalf of criminals of place
and fortune. While humber thieves
pay the price of freedom to the dernier
coin, thieves whose operations harmed
comparatively few people. the finan-
cial and business crook who stole in
terms of millions from hundreds on
hundreds of trusting victims no
sooner enters on his incarceration but
the plea for clemency is sounded by
I,;s frionds and kinsman
Then we hear the lachrymose chant
about gray hair and failing health,
and all too often do the prison doors
swing back IN response to pull or
slushy sentiment.
And, mirabile dictu, the rascal,
who was represented as wrestling on
the brink of eternity, renews himself
like the phoenix and takes up life
of pleasure in the fair places of the
earth.
Stensland's knavery brought dire
misfortune to hundreds of humble
citizens; to grant him his freedom
while they still suffer from his wrongs
would be to make a mockery Of
Justice, place a premium on high
grade crime and SOW the seeds of
anarchy in many struggling, out.
