Lftst weeks prices were 25@25%c; last ^Mtr25c^ ' * • * ISTHon. A. Pattridge, of Wauke- gan, late Secretary of th« Republican State Central Committee, is spoken of as a candidate for the office of Clerk of the next House of Representatives of the General Assembly. No better choice Opuld be made. ISTHon. A. J. Hopkins, present Mem­ ber of Congress from this District, was re-elected at the late election by a plural­ ity of 13,525, and a clean majority of 11,002 over the combined opposition of Democrats, Prohibitionists and Popu­ lists. He has just cause to feel proud of Ms District and the District is certainly ^ proud of tier Member of Compress. &iWThe solid South of 1894 is compos­ ed of Florida, Mississippi and Texas. fhese three states alone stand loyal to fte old South. Georgia has three Popu­ list congressmen, Alabama one Republi­ can two Populists, Arkansas one Popu­ list, Maryland three Republicans, South Cu'Gliuu will send Tillman to the senate in place of Butler, Virginia elects two Re­ publican congressmen, and Delaware Kentucky, Missouri, North Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia have gone ,|lver to the Republicans. In the next Congress there will probably be 36 Re­ publicans from the Sonth instead of only ft, as in the present Congress. U paid t» be fcard at work On his annuel Theottaatry undshitends pretty well what is meant when the president is rep­ resented as hard at work. No one can tell what strange Whim he may ii'xt discuss and try to force on congress. The Hawaiian infamy was evolved the last time the president devoted himself to hard work. In this instance the hard work consisted in calculating the time of steamers sailing to and from Honolulu with a view tcr getting certain things ac­ complished before the people could know fully the extent of the iniquity. He has a chance to retrace the steps which so aroused public indignation, but no one expects that he will embrace the oppor­ tunity. He should send ±he treaty of an­ nexation back to the senate and exert all his infl uence for its ratification. Such an act would go far to remedy the mischief which was done by a queen-restoring policy. The president ,can also direct Hoke Smith to cancel the commissions of all the spies who have been sent abroad to persecute veterans ot the Union afiNTprevent them from wearing pensions. Congress can also be advised to repeal tlie OUIUH income tax, oeiore cue agents of the federal government begin prying into the affairs of private citizens who may be fortunate enough to have in­ comes in these times. As the last Demo­ cratic president for a generation, Mr. Cleveland may well seek to close his pub­ lic career with some act of repentance for the follies he has committed. ;ii MTThe present eoiicrreHg will resume , _>/. ' business on the firstMonday inDecember and continue in session until the 3d of i!' 4 Itarch. After that date the new congress " ^"Will come into office, but will not meet ^ mntil the first Monday of December 1895, - unless called in special session by the president. The Republican congressional : committee reports that the next house of J /- tepresentatives will contain 245 Republi- V1 Uans, 105 Democrats and 6 Populists. If ff - this estimate be correct the Republicans frill have a majority of the delegations pt thirty states, the Democrats twelve, '$he Populists one, and divided evenly Blaryland one, which would give the Re­ publicans more than a two-thirds major­ ity by states in case the next presiden- tial election should be thrown into the . house. • _______ ' ^ jyears ago, he had telegraphed Mr. Heed = *)to spend a day or two with him at Mt. Greater Than the Almighty.. v Jfc * speech at Rochelle last week Con- . - gressman Hitt said, as was the case two .fV' ' >*. . 1 "X HMorris, and that day he received a reply :pu:;,-lin which Mr. Reed said: "To-day in , walking past the Metoodist church in j , Ann Arbor I noticed a placard over the door which read: 'Prayer meeting ser- -,jv ^ vices from 7 to 7:30 p. M. Cut short on ' account of speech of T. B. Reed (that's ./?, me).' Now, Hitt, if I am getting so good ^•V^that invocations to the Almighty are cut " ' short on my account, I shall have to de- |^s <- dine to associate with such fellows as •,/v ' you; that is, uuless you have improved ! greatly since leaving Washington."--Ex. S* A SUGGESTION. .Sow that the country has passed on ' j Hoke Smithism.as well as "tariff reform' ,]f ,, - it would be appropriate for the president t to call in his pension spies, who have " pursued the pensioners of the nation without ceasing for more than a year. The large sum appropriated by congress for the support of the great arny of spies may well be turned into the Treasury, which is sorely in need of the money. These spies are giving to the people an onpleasant idea of the national govern­ ment. That government ought to be re­ garded as a protector, but under the present administration it has assumed the role of persecutor, prying into the affairs of citizens, and conducting secret operations to deprive yeterans, their ^'V'. widowB and orphans of pensions freely £ •> granted by a grateful people. The pres- .' identmay well act now, for so sure as ' ' the fifty-fourth congress assembles it will 1 investigate the whole outrageous busi ' DO WOMEN WANT TO VOTB. In every campaign for woman suffrage the question is raised whether a majority of women actually desire the right to vote* Affirmative and negative asser­ tions on this point are made with the utmost positiveness, bnt neither side has ever been able to prove Its claim, for the reason that in^submitting woman suff­ rage law's to the people, men only have been permitted to cast ballots for or against them. In other words, it has been customary to grant or withhold woman suffrage through the machinery of man suffrage, and thus no opportun- for an exact test of feminine sentiment on the subject has been afforded. Vermont proposes to furnish such an opportunity. There has recently been introduced into the lower house of the legislature of that state a bill providing that women over 21 years may vote at town meetings and be eligible to hold office provided they pay the same poll tax as men, and take the freeman's oath declaring that they do not favor Anar­ chy, Nihilism or Socialism. Butthenovel feature of the bill is a provision that it shall not go into effect unless a majority of the women of the state vote in its favor, and by its own terms the ballot is placed in their hands for that purpose, Thus the measure grants the right of suffrage to women to the extent that their own votes are to decide whether it is adopted or rejected. That is, they are to vote on the question of whether they wish to vote or not. Of course it will be urged against this plan that women who do not desire the right of suffrage should not be permitted to thwart the wishes of those who do desire it, and th9 plea is not devoid of sense and justice. Never theless, if the legislature of Vermont de­ cides to lay the proposition before the state in the manner described, there will be a fair measure of feminine opinion on the question of woman suffrage. Such an experiment would be watched with great interest. ' Pithy, VnttatSd a&d^pipiliaeat. 'the ltaftocrato and assistant Demo­ cratic, wjEltors having sucoesded so well in their nursing of the dissensions in the Democratic party, have now turned their attention to the Republican party, be­ ginning with mi attempt to create jeal­ ousy between the friends of Harrison, r*m>{V McKinIcj, When the election returns from the South are carefully gone over the claim of the Populists, that they, and not the Democrats, will be the principal oppon­ ents of the Republicans in '96 appears altogether probable. Let bygones be bygones, and if your Democratic neighbor has nothing in stock but crows see that he is provided with a nice, fat Republican turkey for his Thanksgiving dinner. What a pity it is that Bayard doesn't resign, so that tVilson could be sent to London as Ambassador. The English love him so. j • Senator Sherman lately said: "The Democrats possess the peculiarity of al­ ways doing the wrong thing." Generally speaking the senator is right, but the Democratic party certainly did the right thing--for the country--when it met titueaij. Senator Stewart should remember that it is more profitable to raise almost any­ thing else than it is to raise--what he in­ timates he will in the Senate. A brainy woman is far ahead of a Miss Nancy man, in politics as will as in business. Congressman, soon to be ex-Congress­ man Bynum, says it was because of dis­ satisfaction in the minds of the voters, which is correct; but he forgot to add that the dissatisfaction was caused by Democratic stupidity. Perhaps he thought that too well understood to need mentioning. Senator Hill ought to be able to ex­ tract some satisfaction from the fact that his prophecy of Democratic defeat, made in his Senate speech has been more than fulfilled. Chairman Babcock didn't break the bank at Monto Carlo, but he broke the solid south. E ven Texas polled 70,000 Republican votes. If the growth of intelligence has the Bame ratio during the next two years that it had in the last two the election of a Republican president may be made unanimous. Gov. Tillman, of South Carolina, isn't the wisest main on earth, but he has wis­ dom enough to object to being called a Populist, He says he's a Democrat of the anti-Cleveland, anti-cuckoo brand. Mr. Cleveland will feel like taking to the. woods when the defeated Democratic Congressmen begin to talk. In proportion to their claims the Pop­ ulists were as badly thrashed as the Dem­ ocrats, and they deserved it quite as much. Suppose Mr. Reed should conclude that he did not wish to occupy the speak­ er's chair again? This is merely thrown out as a bint to those who are selecting the chairmen of the committees of the next House for Mr. Reed. Our Democratic friendB say that it was the stay-at-home vote. If that be true whence came the increase of 2,000,000 Republican votes over the vote of 1892. Winter - Merchandise! VoR PATRONS LIVING IN MoHEKRY A LAKE ' V ' ->• • i T&e TIM. (.

Now that the election is* over, people will not have to trouble themselves about politics for several mooths to come at least. It is an excellent time now to turn your attention to the good of your town. A town or city is just what its citizens m ake it. The right kind of citizens make the right kind of town. And what is the right kind of citizen? He is a man who dotes not look across the continent for an investment, but spends his money at home and encour­ ages home enterprises. The right kind ot a citizen does not grumble about taxes provided the money is well and economi­ cally used. The right kind of citizen knows the distinction between the virtue of economy, which avoids all waste, but spends money freely for public improve­ ments, and the vice of parsimony, that spends nothing unless absolutely com­ pelled to. The right kind of citizen may not be a wealthy man--indeed he is more frequently not one -- but he cheer fully helps support the public schools and the churches, and he is in favor of the public library. The right kind of citizen believe* in well lighted streets and good aidewalke, for he knows that vice and crime hate gaslight and electric light almost as much as they do daylight, and that they delight in darkness. He also knows that these things give good im­ pressions to strangers. The right kiud of eitizen is also fully aware of the fact that no expenditure bring* so great a re­ turn to the citizen as that which he pays la taxes, provided it be honestly and judiciously applied. DEAi'H OF C. E. STRONG. Chas. E. Strong, manager of the Chi­ cago Newspaper Union, died at his resi­ dence, in Chicago, on the 14th inpt. after a brief illness. Probably there was fio man in the Northwest that was better known among the newspaper fraternity than Mr. Strong. And to know him was to respect him. From a business ac­ quaintance extending over a period of twenty years the writer has ever found him genial, courteous and obliging, with that strict business integrity that won for him the confidence and respect of all with whom he bad dealings. Among the newspaper fraternity his death will be deeply deplored, and to the Newspaper Union, whose business he had conducted so successfully, his loss will be almost ir repairable. To the bereaved family we- extend our heartfelt sympathy in their great bereavement. On the inside pages of this paper can be found a more extended notice and the particulars of his death.
