Marriage Bells,

Thursday evening of last week, at Dan-
bury schoolhouse, the Rev. Chas s. Lane,
of Mandan, and Miss Anna E. Cell of
Danbury, were united in marriage. The
ceremony was performed by the Rev. IL.
G. Bilbie, of Grand Forks After the
ceremony the invited guests repaired to
the residence of the brides parents
where at an appropriate hour a bountlful
supper was served. A number of pres
ents suitable for housekeeping purposes
proved the kind forcthought of friends.
The groom, though almost stranger
to the people of this county, will be re.
membered as the young and able minister
who took part in the Methodist camp-
meeting at Winchester last June. But
the bride is we'll known to our people.
Coming here from Detroit, Mich, with
her parents, several years ago, she
quickly adapted herself to the changed
surroundings of her new home. Her
first position as teacher in Emmons
county was at Danbury, where her ser.
vices both IN the secular and Sabbath
schools were highly appreciated. After
ward she taught at Winchester and on
South Prairie, by her competence and
faithfulness giving general satisfaction.
Some of the most successful school en-
tsrtainments ever given IN the county
we're the result of her untiring energy
and enthusiasm in her work. 1t was
often remarked that few teachers could
accomplish as much in the way of school
exhibitions with the limited material oh
tainable in new country. In church
work she was always foremost, and no
other lady in the county--Mrs. Garry
alone excepted--has done as much toward
helping the Methodist church to the
strong foothold it has obtained in thus
county.
The bride goes to Mandan to reside,
where her husband is pastor of the Meth
odist church. The best wishes of our
people 20 with them.

..satan Triod {. Head OFF tho Work. ,,


The following Is from Elder Plan
nctte's Methodist Pioneer for August,
and refers to the Winchester camp
meeting. 1t was, presumably, written by
some correspondent in this county:
Not as many came to tent and stay as
expected, yet large number for new
country were always present, while the
congregation on Sunday was SAID 10 have
been the largest company of people ever
seen together in Emmons county. The
order Of procedure was prayer meeting at
u. m. class meeting at u. m. preach
ing at 10 a. M, 2 and p. IN. In all 1S
sermons Wero delivered, followed by old
time exhortation and song, The sing
ing, led by Miss Anna E. Cell, was al
ing, conducted by Mrs. Garry and Mrs.
Voss. and the prayer-and praise meeting,
conducted by Mrs. Garry, were we'll timed
and of great spiritual benefit. Many
went home with conviction fastened on
their conscience. A dozen at least re-
ceived the blessed assurance Of accept
ance and adoption; others--and some
among those the preachers--declared they
received new cOnversiOn-a mighty
power, unseen yet felt. present during
the whole meeting. 1t is needless to say
that Satan tried to head off the work
but the church at Winchester comes out
of the ; engagement stronger, better
drilled aud more courageous than ever,
and, under the leadership of our Captain
of Salvation. will try to win this county
for God. Unto him who is able to do
exceeding abundantiy above all we can
ask or think according to the power that
worked in us--unto him be glory IN the
church by Christ Jesus throughout all
ages, world without end. Amen

THE CONVENTION.

The State Republican Convention be-
gar its labors in Armory Hall, Fargo, on
Wednesday last, and reached an adjourn
ment after two days and half of hard
work. There were two factions or com.
binations, and the interest was greut. AS
the two parties were almost evenly di.
vlded, the excitement at times was IN.
tense. There were 261 delegates in al
tendance, and the house was packed wlth
enthusiastic Republicans. The hall WAS
lastefnlly decorated, and over the SEATS
of each delegation was a small banner
bearing the name Of their county. Tbe
Combination with which the Mlssour
Slope delegates acted and to which ALI
of them with the solitary exception OF
Que gentleman from McIutosh) were
loyal, was defeated on the first test of
strength by one vote, and on the que stion
Of gubcrnatorial candidate by only nom.
inal majority. The defeat of the Cnss-
Burleigh combination WAS brought about
by the detection OF two of the Cass county
delegates, and not to amy lack of work on
the part of the combine leaders. Probably
no convention was ever before held in
which the minority so gracefully bowed
to the majority, and showed such earn
csthess and enthusiasm in promising loyal
support to the winners. The following is
the ticket. 1t is a good one and every
Republican in Emmons equity should
put his shoulder to the wheel and see to

congressman from the Sioux City dis.
trict. was interviewed few days ago by
the Rutland (Vt) Herald. After talking
of political matters in general, Mr.. Stru-
BILE was asked whether or not prohibition
was enforced in Iowa. To this he re-
piled: "Well, not IN the larger towns In
many Of them the bars are wide open.
and no effort is made to enforce the law.
You see there is a large German popula-
ton that insists upon having its lager
beer, and so the law isn't enforced. In
my own town liquor is not sold at open
bars, but it is sold at kitchen bar.rooms,
by 'boot-leggers, as we call them, and in
other quiet ways, SO that those who want
1t can get it. Or, to put it more concisely,
in the language of Senator Ingalls,, of
Kansas, Prohibition suits everybody.
The prohibltionists have their law and
the boys have their whisky"
