Temperance Concert.

The temperance concert by the
young people of the M. E. Church on
Sabbath evening was certainly above
the average of such entertainments,
and was worthy the patronage it
received, the full seating capacity of
the church being taxed to accommodate
the congregation. The program show
ed care and excellent taste in selection
and arrangement, whilst the execution
was a great credit to those who took
part in the exercises.
The recitations "The blessing that
come by the train, by Mrs. D. J. Cole
''The Apostophe to water and rum, :"
by Miss Sarah Harvey. "Little Nell"
by Miss Humphreys, of Oshkosh,
and the "Martyred Mother" by Miss
Bell Mosher; thrilled and moved with
deepest sympathy the congregation
Wee little Eva Demarais delighted
every one with her sweet Rock-a-by
song, which was executed with wonder
ful effect for one SO young. ''Where
are the Plains of Zion' by Miss Mary
Dougherty and Miss May Norton.
"W hat do the Bells say by Miss
May Norton. "Oh! spare my boy"
by Mrs. Goggins, and songs by the
choir added to the interest of the
occasion. Pastor Smiths earnest
appeal to the young men against the
use of intoxicants and visiting of the
saloons very appropriately rounded out
a most profitable evening service. The
presence of Rev. Loomis, pastor of
the Congregational Chirch with many
of his people showed catholicity Of
feeling and unity of spirits in the two
churches.

The Whole Democratic County
Ticket Elected from top to
Bottom. Majorities Rang
ing from 65 to 800.
John Edwards Loses his Former
Excellent Record of two Years
ago. Geo. F. Merrill gets his
Whole Party Vote in the County
as Prophesized by the Reporter
Before Election.
The Republicans Made an Excel
lent run and are Happy
Even with Defeat.

Election day was somewhat disa-
greeable, but fair vote was polied,
While the republicans were hopeful on
some of their candidates they realized
they had a democratic majority of
300 to overcome. The lack of organiza-
ton and system in making the canvass
was one disadvantage they suffered,
also Geo. r. Gardner and It. A. Cady's
resigning in manner discouraged the
balance of the candidates. Yet the
result shows that Claus Johnson, l.,
A. Charboneau and r. A. HaVenor
did excellently.
The republicans and democrats alike
accord TO the candidates on both sides
the honor of conducting the campaign
without throwing dirt or causing any
III feeling or discord between each
other While we would have been
nleased to see the republican ticket
elected, we feel that most OF the men
on the democratic ticket will serve the
county we'll.
We give tabular statement belo"
of the returns received up to the hour
of going to press which will not vary
much on the official count. K. A
Havenor may be elected when the
official returns are made.
