The Clement Concert Co., Which
name is just as familiar to every in
habitant of this vicinity and in fact
over nearly all the northwest as is
George Washington, presented itself
in most satisfactory manner to d
large and very appreciative audience

and had we the space to spare. would
take pleasure in giving each member a
good notice, which they surely deserve.
The selections were all good aid the
voices likewise; Miss Ella Richards,
soprano, was very sweet and won
hearty applause, and also did Miss
Branscombe's contralto; and, in fact
all the male portion of the company
gave thorough satisfaction. and moth

too good can be said of Mr.. Kowalski,
the organist and pianist, and Mr. Bur-

On Tuesday evening the large Opera
House was filled to Overlooking with
those who had gathered to listen to
the temperance address of L. ID. Kan
ouse, G. w. C. +. of Wisconsin. At
about eight O'clock, every seat was filed
and the choir from the Good Templrs
Lodge opened with the hymn "Hark
the glad sound, the Savior Comes" sc,
which was followed by prayer by Rev.
VIM. Jacka, Jr. after witch, p. Allen Jr.
introduced Hon. I. D. Kanouse, who
spoke for more than an hour in an able
and earl est presentation of his position
and the position of the temperance
people on the temperance question.
He showed how the manipulators of
partisan politics had degenerated into
an unprincipled and unconscionable
class, whose only aim was self aggran-
dlsement, and seemed to impress even
those opposed to him as one having the
courage to stand by his convictions.
A word i'll praise of the singing and
music would not be out of place here.
1t was excellent and we think it wo uld
be asort Of satisfaction and encourage
ment to those who sing for humanity,
if they might only comprehend in
part the great good they do. for if as
it is said, the smallest sound is not
lost, but its effects go forward into
eternity, how much more will be the
good accomplished by those who can,
through the exercise of their talents in
this direction, lead human thought to
the modest aspirations.
