U. S. District Attorney Walker has
been through all the vicissitudes of ma
tionality from the fair haired son of
the north to Johnny Bull with "belly
with rich capon lined" There never
was man born who has less of nation
al or religious bigotry about him. 1t
is all one to him whether he is called
a Russian, Jew or Poack. There was
a time when he wore most outrageous
steeple shaped cap and strangers took
him to be Bushi-Ba2ouk. He offered
no objections. He has been taken for
a Norwegian so many times that he
half inclined TO the belief for a while
that he was one, and actually fell into
the habit of using that undulating
mode of speech peculiar to the children
of the "Land Of the Midnight Sun. I"
AS an lrishman, VIII has had a check
cred career. As local politician in
this county he had good Irish follow
ing and in Irish communities he passed
for one of 'em. TO do viii Justice he
has never represented himself to be
anything but a Yankee, but he is so
absolutely without national prejudice
that he passes for anything except a
"coon" and he is not dead in love with
a 'nigger."
A relative of his was visiting him
some years ago when Will was candi-
date for county office. He made some
inquiries as to Wills chances and
happened to put his queries to son OF
the Emerald Isle. "Of course he'll he
elected was the Irishman's almost in
dignant response to a question which
indicated some concern. "We're all
going for him. But who are "we?n
persisted the anxious relative, "The
Irish, came the answer, "he's Irish
himself and we won't 90 back on him. "
"Oh, but he isn't Irish, explained the
impolitic relative. lie isn't Irish is
it?n He never denied it himself and
he couldn't il he tried, with that
mouth on him" If Wits Irish friend
could see him on the platform in Mil.
waukee as vice president Of meeting
addressed by the Irish statesmen,
O'Connor and Esmonde, he would
have his faith in the mouth strength
ened.

ception was given the bridal party.
The wedding was quiet affair, wit
messed only by immediate relatives.
The bride was formerly a stenograph-
err for the Schumacher Cycle Co. She
is young lady OF many graces of mind
and person and is held in esteem by
her large circle of friends, and is Ca
pable of filing the home she will
adorn with happiness. Mr.. Barr is a
foreman for the Moses Construction
Co. and met his bride while working
in this city on the new building of the
Rahr Sons Co.

contented, more efficient, fuller rur-
al life.
1t will tend to arrest the drift OF the
rural population to the cities. An in
cident in proof Of this, and | am done.
Years ago in Wright County, Iowa, l57
boys and Ia girls in rural schools were
asked their plans for life. All but
seven of the boys, and all but eleven Of
the girls declared they would have
nothing to do with farming. During
the next three years the teaching Of
agriculture and domestic science was
introduced. Another vote was then
taken in the same school, with Ia boys
and l7S girls voting. All but eleven
Of the boys and all but seventeen of the
girls declared their intention OF re-.
naming on the farm
This is n revolution in sentiment,
and 1t means much. Once let these
new schools complete their work of
social regeneration aud the drift will
turn from the cities to the farm. We
shall have opened to all eyes the at.
traction Of rural life, as we'll as its ma
terial rewards: and out Of the co-opera-
tive intercourse of the farmers Of the
nation will grow the new democracy
which has been the dream of reformers
and humanitarians.

PAID ADVERTISEMENT.

Authorized by James II. Davidson,
Oshkosh, Wis, who is the autho"
thereof. Amount to he paid S2.25.
To THE VOTERS OF THE SIXTH DIS
TRICT:
In this campaign political parties
differ but little in plans for the solu-
ton of social and economic questions.
All seem sincere in desire for the pro-
motion of progress and purity in the
national life. But voters should not
overlook the attitude of the parties on
the tariff.
Republicans are committed to the
maintenance Of a protective tariff.
Democrats are pledged to destroy it.
Years of protection have brought our
country to its commanding position
among the nations of the Earth,
Periods of revenue tariff have always
set us back.
The Republican tariff is justified in
the light of experience and history; it
has always succeeded
The Democratic tariff is careless
mixture of theory and hope; it has al
ways failed.
Republicans believe in the principle
of protection equitably applied IN the
interest of American labor, American
industries and American agriculture.
They believe that the schedules of a
protective tariff should be frequently
and critically reviewed by an expert
non-partisan Tariff Commission, and
that the rates should be promptly re-
duced whenever there is disclosed II
tendency to foster monopoly, or to con-
fer special privilege.
A Republican tariff has always meant
steady employment, good wages and
ready markets.
A Democratic tariff has always meant
idle factories, hard times and wide
spread poverty.
Do you remember the panic, bank
failures and distress under the tariff
for revenue only" policy, 1893 to 1897?
That was the most recent trial of a
Democratic tariff.
Precisely the same tariff is being
again urged upon us by Democrats.
Its adoption would be followed by
precisely the same results.
Without regard to differences of
opinion upon other issues, past expert
ence should unite voters in an emphat-
ic declaration that the principle of pro-
lection in national affairs should not be
overthrown.
Respectfully,
JAMES II. DAVIDSON,
Republican Candidate for Congress.

the voters to vote against the purchas-

wish to say that all such rumors are
groundless
The Electric Light Company will not
raise a finger, nor in any way try to
influence anybody to vote for or against
this question.

The ELECTRIC LIGHT QUESTION.

The question Of whether the city
wishes at this time to purchase the
electric light plant will be determined
at the election next Tuesday. The
proposed purchase has been agitated
by Mayor Stolze and he seems to be
the only one who is very anxious to
have the city acquire another public
utility at this time, although the Light
company is not at all unwilling to
sell.
The wisdom of purchasing the light
plant is not apparent. We are now
getting electric light as cheaply as we
can ever hope to get it even from the
city. The rate commission says the
price we pay is not enough. Is it
reasonable to expect this commission
to allow the city to sell electricity
cheaper than it allows private COM
pany to sell it? If not, we can gain
nothing on that score. Much more
likely is it that we will be forced in
case the city should purchase to pay
not only present rates but also to pay
additional sums for connections as we
must now do in the case of water con-
nections.
In addition to this the city is now
bonded to the amount of S306,000. The
total amount for which, under the law,
we can bond ourselves is s475,000. The
difference between the present indebt-
edness and the legal limit is only
$4,000.
Four years ago the rate commission
fixed the physical value of the light
plant at about 5000 Extensive i'm
provements have been made since then
and it is safe to say the present physical
value is close to or about Sl25, 900. The
courts of this state recently held that
to this physical value must be added
a sum for "going value" Even though
such sum be small the total will prac-
tically exhaust our bond limit Is such
a step wiser Can this city, struggling
as it is for growth and advancement,
achieve either or hope for either,
while loaded to the waters edge with
debt? And this is not all. No sooner
will the people have shuffled off few
thousands of this debt than we will
feel forced in the regular order of
things to buy the gas works, and then
hundred years from now when pos-
terity begins to crawl out just little
from the bond burden which we are
proposing to pile on ourselves but
which will be paid as the railroad of
1872 have been-which is "not yet"
some would-be savior of the common
people will no doubt arise and tell the
generation that is living then-that
the millennium will! surely come if the
city will buy the street railway
1t seems to be time for the people
who will bear a large part of the pres
ent proposed burden to stop and think,
If no benefit will be derived from it
why assume the burden, and there will
be no benefit?

The HERALD IS SiLENCED.

The Herald made no reply to the
lashing the Pilot gave it last week. 1t
has crawled into it's hole and pulled
the hole in after it. OF course it still
runs the stereotyped old phrase: "The
Herald has twice the circulation of any
other Manitowoc paper" This old
phrase smells worse than a piece of
Swiss cheese and is as false as the fab
rication the Herald published about
the other papers OF Manitowoc not COM
plying with the new law. There is an
old saying: ''False in one thing, false
in all" and this saying applies to the
Herald.

ITEMS FROM THE PILOT FILES.
FIFTY YEARS AGO.

The MORRILL, TARIFF. We publish
today plain but very complete ex-
position of the gross outrage upon the
interests of the Northwestern and
Western States, perpetrated by what
is known as the Morrill, tariff law. In
the excitement growing out of the
war, when the people of these states
were more intent on saving the con-
stitution and the union than in looking
at the provisions Of an act designed
especially to oppress them, and to up
hold every interest of New England
manufacturers, little attention has
been given to the operation of this
law. Fortunately for the country,
some of our public men have examined
the subject, and we'can readily account
for the political revolution in Indiana
in great part, by the publication to
which we have alluded in the beginning
or this paragraph. The facts and com
parisons are astounding, and ought to
awaken the attention OF the people OF
Illinois, Wisconsin and Missouri to the
impositions under which they are suf-
fering. The whole legislation of Con-
gress, controlled by the abolitionists Of
the North, has been directed so as to
cripple and lmpoverish the great grain
growing States of this region, and to
protect and advance the interests of
the New England and manufacturing
States. The war, as every one knows,
has damaged everyone who has home,
or does business in the valley of the
Mississippi, except, perhaps, govern
ment contractors and spectators in
general.
