GARFIELD AND ARTHUR eLrE CLUB
Complimentary Dinner at the Preble
House.

The Ga field and Arthur Glee Club OF this
city gave q complimentary dinner to their
friends and honorary members at the Preble
House last evening. This club was organized
in TIE early part of the campaign, aud en-
braces in its ranks some of our most respected
young Aeu. Indeed we believe we echo the
sentiment of every citizen irrespective of party
when we say chat this club reflects credit not
only upon the Republican party but upon the
city Of Portland, No campaign club has done
more efficient service, nor has anything exem-
pified the truth that this is time for the gem
tleman and scholar in politic as the forma-
tion and history Of the Garfield and Arthur
Glee Club
The club short timesince concluded to give
a complimentary dinner to their friends and
honorary members. They appointed commit
tee OF arrangements consisting of Chas ID.
Clark, E. G. Milliken II. f. Libby, d, w.
Hesetine and w. II. Flanders. That these
gentlemen understood and performed their
duty those who We're 50 fortunate as to be pres
ent last evening will bear willing testimony
The dinner was an elegant affair. All the del
cacies OF the season were there seldom have
men sat down to a more sumptuous collation..
After tie wants Of the inner man were salts
fed, and the sixty gentlemen made happy by
the fare, the chairman OF the committee of ar
rangements Mr.. Chas. D. Clark, called those
present TO order in a few appropriate remarks
and introduced as POSTMASTER of the evening
Hon. Wilbur f. Lunt.
Mr. Lant is evidently 10 novice in;post-pran-
dial duties His happy illusions and witty
hits last evening admirably fitted the occasion.
Remarks were made by Capt. D. w. Hesetine,
Hon. w. W. Thomas, Jr., r. X. Gatley, Hon.
J. III. Drummond, e. NJ. Rand, Esq, E. II. Ell
we'll, editor of the Transcript, f. j. Rollins,
Clarence Hale, ESD, and w. FL. Looney
We have not the time or space to give syn
opsis of the remarks made by the several gen.
tlemen. Suffice to say that each was attentive
ly listened to and generously applauded; the
witty speech of E. NJ. Rand, Esq, in particu-
lar brought down the house.
The speeches ere interspersed by several
selections of the Glee Club who sang with
more than their accustomed vigor At the
conclusion of the banquet the Club voted unan-
imousy to continue the organization.
Without exceptioa ali present, both men,
bers and invited, expressed themselves in
terms of the highest praise of the success of
the occasion. We congratulate the committee
of arrangements upon the happy and success
full consummation of their efforts.

ALL FOR SPITE.

There is now a certain faction that say,
"John Nichols must 60" That since he
has shown disposition not to join the
band of solebeads and party kickers, but
has as any good sensible man ought to do,
advocated openly and freely those princl-
plies which. if carried out, would result in
placing Stutsman county at the head, and
give it political prestage and standing,
worthy of its ability, they propose to kick
him out. and give his place to 81 man who
is in no wise capable to meet the require
mcnts Of tue office That their movement is
wholly based upon spite is evident from
the fact that the very men who placed him
in nomination at the peoples convention,
a'e the very men who are using every
means in their power, regardless Of hon
esty or decency, to defeat him. Mr..
Nichols has ever discharged the duties OF
his Office in accordance with the requires
ments of the law and we earnestly hope
that the vosers Of Stutsman county will
not permit themselves to be lead away by
by these enemies of loyalty and justice,
but cast good solid vote for John J..

" e remember the wise words of the man
who said, "A house divided against itself
cannot stand, or shall &C tear our repub-
lican party bers in pieces by our local

even now chuckling with delight

e. p Wells has been nominated for the
Assembly in this district on the republi-
can ticket, D. NJ. Kelleher on the dem-
ocratic. Laying aside all other questions,
let me ask the republicans, de you wish
a democrat to 60 from our county to the
republican Legislature, where his voice
will be drowned cut by the large majori-
ty! 1t you do, those of you who have any
personal feeling against M. Wells, will
effect that end the easiest and surest
by putting before the people an indepen-
dent republican candidate to be your tool
IN the election of D. NJ Kelleher. Put
up your man. good though he may be per

ncighbor whom you dislike. This may
be the part Of reasoning men; reasoning
men do often allow passion to master
judgment; Tut what is done in haste is
often repented of at leisure, and it will
be well for US to think twice before we
destroy our present influence in territorial
affairs and blight our future prospects.
Let US now in this matter be wise, and
having our candidate in the field, put all
personal feeling aside and heartily sup.
port him for our own good, and then in

READ AND II REFLECT.

1t is becoming more and more apparent
day by day that the little opposition there
is at the present time against Mr. Wells,
is nothing more or less tlA.u an ont-growth
ofspite and petty jealousy. The leaders
of the opposing faction declare openly
that they do not care how much damage
che county and district sustain in ccnsc.
quence of their movements, just so long
as they can defeat Mr.. Wells. Or, in
in other words, they are willing to de-
stroy the political influence of the district,
make political wrecks of their friends and
themselves, and 80 forever branded rs
sore heads and kickers. for the sake of
defeating the mau who has done
more for the prosperity of jamestown and
Stutsnln county than any other one mau
within its borders, and thereby giatity
their iea .ous spite.
We cannot believe that the majority OF
the voting population of this ceun'y will
permit themselves to be led away from
the path of duty, which can not fail to be
plain to them. and join issue with class
of men whose sole Object is to defeat one
| of the best friends StutSman county ever
had, and in so doing ro., it of its chances
fog future prosperity. Remember that il
| is not for Wells alone that you vote, but
for your own individual interests.

sTA.D HY YOUR FLAG.

Fargo Republican.
We here rumors that certain parties in
Fargo, dissatisfied because Fargo man
was not nominated for the Council,
are contemplating putting an inde-
pc dent ticket in the field. We trust
however, that upon mature reflection, this
suicidal course will be abandoned. II
the party is worth sustaining, there
must be unity, and candidates nominated
Ut regularly called convention of the
party, must be supported, unless they are
marifestly unfit fer the place to which
it Is proposed to coll them. Ifthe action
of conventions are not to be regarded,
there is but little use in holding them,
and the party that SO disregards its
organization will not hold toget her. The
movement, if it is made, means a bolt
simply, and we commend the following
from the Bismarck Tribune, to the care

rejected by the Greenbackers, even.
In every state brilliant boilers are found
stranded on the sand bars of politics.
