E.TIM.EKON, T. MURPHY, Republican County committee. To Reputjlican Town Commillccn The county committee would suggest to town committees that, for the sake of uniformity, the town caucus be held in each town Saturday, October 7th, in the afternoon or evening, as may be most convenient. The committee would also recommend that the calls for town caucuses be posted as soon as possible and a copy sent to the Dunn Count News for publication, that voters may have ample notice.

A Racinfipaper hoists the names of James G. Blame for president and Lucius Fairchild for vice-president in 1884. At the Wisconsin Methodist Conference which meet at Portage, Bishop Andrews, in his opening address, took occasion to rebuke the clergy for "degenerating into politicians and- temperance workers." This caused iTsensution Eau Claie county has four tickets in the field Republican, Dcmociatic, Temperance, -Anti Wwmpwiy. There is yet time to add a Peoples ticket, Fusion ticket, etc. There is nothing like having plenty of tickets, and variety is the spice of an election.

The pension rolls, according to a late report of the commissioner of pensions, contains names, and there are applications on file. During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, the amount of money actually paid out on pension account was $54,290,280.54. A most singular accident occurred on the Northwestern Railroad, near Oconto last week Wednesday. The engine of thu passenger train running twenty live miles an hour, exploded with terrific force, and leaped to one side leaving the track clear for the train to pass over. After running one mile the engineless train was stopped by the brakemen.

Nobody hurt. Wo see by the Pierce county papers that Air. Morse editor of the Kiver Falls Journal is mentioned as the probable Republican candidate for Member of Assembly frorn that county, Mr. Morse is a young man of ability, integrity and marled personal which in addition to his well-known anti-monopoly principle would make him a strong candidate The Louisville Commercial takes no stock in the idea that the Republican party has fulfilled its mission and is now upon the downgrade. It claims that on questions of banks, currency, tariff, internal improvements, education and moral reform, it reflects the views of the people, that if there was any real decay in the party, it would be seen in the great states of the west that the fact that in such states as Kansas and Iowa it maintains an overwhelming 'supremacy, indicates that it is a party which is abreast of the times, which truly represents the living forces of the age, and which flourishes in healthful vigor, instead of showing signs of enerva tion and decrepitude.

The age of the Church of England has long been an open question, good churchmen insisting that it is in the direct line of apostolic succession, Romanists and dis-. scnters insisting that it dates from the quarrel of Henry VIII, with the Pope of Rome. A legal decision has been rendered in England which majr be set down as a judicious establishment of the fact that the Established Church antedates Henry's coronation at least 62G 3'cars. A piece of property, which had been leased in A. D.

883 for 099 years, was claimed by the church by right of reversion, and tho court held that the claim was good. That great soldier and statesman, Alfred the Saxon, founder of the British navy, and almost of English literature, was on the throne of England when that lease was executed. Soine years ago the hop-lands of Wisconsin, of no great value except for hop-raising, were the most profitable in the state. The low price of hops in recent years has left hop farmers poor, as a rule. The chief use of bops is in the manufacture of beer, and there has been a steady growth in the use of German hops for this purpose.

For the Bohemian and Bavarian beers which have attained con. siderable popularity foreign hops exclusively arc used. But this year there is a shortage in the foreign crop, notably in Germany. England's crop will not supply the home demand and the high price abroad will put a stop to purchases for American breweries The New York crop will be short, while in Wisconsin and California the crop will not fall much if any below the average. Under these conditions the hop-farmers of Wisconsin are promised large returns once more The price lias doubled within a short tune for 1882 hops.

The best Wisconsin sell for 50 cepts in New York which is a money-making price for producers. There will be larger demands both at home and abroad lor 1882 Wisconsin hops. TEACHERS' EXAMINATIONS.

Wright of this city, Geo. Thuin of D. Darling of Tainter. D. W.

Waite the present county surveyor will probably be nominated without opposition. As there seems to be no man seeking the office of coroner, the conven tion will be treated with one of those rare spectacles of "the office seeking the man If there are any others mentioned as candidates for the various offices their names have not come to our notice. There is certainly timber enough to make a strong and poptilar ticket and we doubt not the coming convention will place in nomination candidates who will be aecept able to the people and receive a hearty en dorsement at the polls. Mr. Price has net consented to meet Mr.

Bailey or any of his friends in j( int discussion nnd wlint is mnro ho will not dare meet him. Eau Claire Leader. i mr. i rice nas accepieu no proposition to meet Mr. Bailey in joint discussion because no proposition has been made him.

If Mr. Bailey is so anxious to meet him, all lie has to do is to send him an invita" tion. No doubt Bailey will challenge Mr. Price. "Fools rush in where angels fear to tread." THE VILLAGE OF SUETEK Now has a population of about 300 in habitant, and the number rapidly increasing.

It has one grist mill, one saw mill, four stores, three hotels, two blacksmith shops. one wagon shop, one shoe shop, one harness shop, two saloons, one meat market, one barber shop, one gun shop, an agency for farm and mill machinery, school house, depot and water tank. In addition to these there are now in the course of erec tion, one store, one saloon, and one drug store, one millinery shop and there are yet to be built before the close of the sea son, one furniture store, one blacksmith shop, and also at the depot, a grain warehouse, capable of storing and handling bushels of grain per day. Among the buildings now erected or in course of erection are none of the mushroom sort so often seen in the new -villages, but are well and substantially built, with a view to pcrmuncy. Business and residence lots are beitig sold at extremely low-rates, and range in price Irotn $2f to $150; time given for part payments, at low rates of interest.

If Mr. Price is ever going to accept Mr.

Bailey's challenge why don't he do it If he thinks that challenge will keep over winter, and can accepted another year he is mistaken. Eau Claire Neics. The democratic papers in this district have made noise enough about Mr. Biiley's "challenge" to Senator Price. The fact is that Mr.

Bailey has never challenged Mr. Price. If he is so anxious to meet the Senator on the stump in joint discussion why don't he not ify Mr. Price in a proper manner and arrange the preliminaries for debate. Bailey's challenge" thus far is all buncombe and he is trying to get credit for doing something he has not done.

It is about time this vainglorious egotist had the conceit taken out of him and Bill Price i3 just the man to do it. Mr. Bailey will please write out his "challenge." lie Recommends It. iTaving used the Eclegm Consumption Cure for congha and cold in my family with excellent results, gladly recommend it.

sniVULYi Menomonie, Wis. NURSERY. APPLE TREES GROWN FROHJ ROOT GRAFTS IN DUNN COUNTY. I have on my farm one mile south of Downs-ville. ten thousand 3 and 4 year old trees kinds that are best adapted to this climate, and invite all wanting apple trees in this section to come and see my stock, and some of the fruit as many of them are bearing.

I have in stock over thirty different kinds, some of them the best kinds ol iCusKlan varieties that have been introduced in this country. I keep posted in regard to any new varieties that are being introduced thatarc worthy and adapted to thi climate. You will please aU low me to say here don't be deceived by new and strange names given old varieties that have become a drug in the market about nursery's East and are being sent out West and sold at fancy prices as some new and very desirable kinds for this climate. One reason that there has been so many failures reported in trying to raise fruit trees here is from the fact that they were not the kinds represented. Another reason is the roots are cut too short in order to pack as many as possible in a box.

And further the trees have to bo out of the ground too long. They are usually shipped by freight and are hung up a long time on the way. An apple tree that is once damaged hardly ever lives in this climate. The roots should never be allowed togetdry. They wllldomuch better if set the same day taken fromthe Nur sery.

Trees that receive a shock when set, are in very poor condition to withstand the hot sun and our cold winters. Trees that are damaged consideiable will struggle along for three or four years sometimes before thev died, and it was supponed they were winter killed, when in tact the trouble was the shock received at the time of transplanting. To them 1 hat are coming to the Nursery to get trees of me I want to say. get your eround all ready first. Then if you want to et the! trees this fall come early, after about three or four sharp frosls, and get the trees and set them out the same day if the distance is not to far.

1 will leave on a large root so the trees will hardly feel the shock. Those that do not want to set them this fall can bury them until spring they had better not be set In the fall unless set early so the ground will have time to settle, so as to prevent the roots irom being damaged by frost. I pref to handle trees In the fall, they can then be set earlier At A minesonnKso meroowt win ix-mn senu up sap and prevent the hot sun from scalding the south side.
