Mr.. III I'll. Kirk and wife arrived Sat

household effects with the intention Of
becoming citizens OF Sturgis, and have
settled down on Pine street. Mr.. Kirk
comes among as with strong testimonials
as q good citizen, and able lawyer and q
man Of integrity One of the many fat
tering endorsements is the following from
the Marengo Democrat:
sChange is the ceasless rule Of life,
and in obedience thereto Marengo will
lose, before another issue of the Demo
crat, one OF it's first families. We refer
to Mr.. and Mrs. r. FL. Kirk, who will
this week take their departure for the
Black Hills country, intending to make
it their future home.
ssMr. Kirk has been engaged in the
practice OF law here since 1876, and by
his ability, integrity, and devotion to his
chosen profession has won for himself q
high place at the bar OF this district, and
in the confidence and esteem OF the peo-
pie. Four years ago Mr.. Kinks name
was before the democratic judicial con-
vention OF this district, and on the first
ballot he was only three or four votes
behind Judge FairaIl, who received the
nomination, Mr.. Kinks name having
been Withdrawn at his own request be.
fore the second ballot. He has been en-.
joying good practice here, and is g
very successful lawyer.
A few months ago he visited the Black
Hills country and became strongly, anc
we hope correctly, impressed with the
future prospects of that part of the world
and decided to cast his lot there. W.
but voice general sentiment when we
express sincere regret at his decision
while we hope that his highest expecta
tions may be more than realized. He
will locate in Sturgis, South Dakota, ant
to the people OF that place we commend
him as an able attorney and mar
worthy of any trust.
ssMrs. Kirk is a cultured and amiablt
lady, well fitted to grace the best circles
Of society, and warmly esteemed among
her acquaintance. May their success
in their new home be measured by thu
standard of their worth"

were forced to spend more time on con-
tested elections. Our loss of time from the
contested elections will not be less than
twenty days. One other cause of loss of

He then went on to speak OF another
method of obstruction-calling the roll.
With $50 members it takes twenty-five
minutes to make roll call. Whenever the
yeas and nays are ordered, it means loss
of half an hour. So far this session we
have had four hundred roll-calls; three
hundred of these have been useless-a
mere wanton waste-and three hundred
roll calls mean twenty-five legislative days
wasted in useless calling over of the names,
and it is done to waste time, with public
business unfinished.

carry out their will"
