s,upiiSt Church Debt and SociabIc,

sIctbtihE PnufED EJeIE ana suCiSDic.
The well intontionod words, at
tributad to mo by the TRIBUNE reporter,
were not obtained at first hand and not
entirely correct. The kindness intended
is appreciated nevertheless. I was aware
that ST. Georges church was free from
debt, for the last instullment of it's debt
was paid o after | cana to Bismarck.
Until recently T believed another Pro-
testant church enjoyed like freedom.
But | am glad that the reporters unin-
tended error has prompted Rev. G. A.
Chambers in such kind and fraternal
terms to express his congratulations.
and in return, I wish most sincerely to
congratulate him on the fine financial
condition Of his parish. Their method
OF paying their worthy rector weekly is
deserving Of unstinted praise.
At our e, ciable last Thursday evening,
which, thanks to our Ladies AID So
ciety, was a decided success, and
p~atronized by a company that filled the
house-in response TO our church treas
urer's statement and appeal, SIS still re-
CURED to make good the conditions to
secure two amounts, n of 500, and
another Of 5000 were promptly paid or
promised by friends present. It only
remains now to receive a check for the
800 promised conditionally by a friend
out Of town, and that the proper papers to
bsmade out, for the church to feel that its
entire Indebtedness is surely cancelled.
To all who have SO cheerfully con-
tributed to the results thus far attained,
our church returns its most grateful and
hearty thanks.
At the sociable, Captain Gregg greatly
entertained all by his reading of "Carol
Birds Christmas Dinner to the
Ruggleses;'' MI. E. G. Hobbs captivated
everybody by his exquisite handling Of
the guitar, in Santa Annals Retreat and
Military Tattoo" and MI. JOS. Granqnist
on the same instrument, accompanied
himself in two sweet Swedish solos.
Under Prof. L.. j. Hancock's lead, the
choir sang several excellent selectione,
and a class of young people illustrated
the art Of progressive spelling, in'which
Miss Grace ~Falkenstein won theaprize.
The sociable proper was inaugurated by
the productionof shingles, sandwiches,
sweet cakes, etc, smilingly served by the
ladies. ,,z~s GEORGE KLINE, i

The result of yesterdays municipal

the TRIBUNE Sunday the fourth chapter.
is published to-day. Party lines
were not drawn and there was but
one complete ticket in the field
the peoples ticket. A frag-
mentary ticket, called the "citizen's
ticket" was worked in three of the wards
as a sort of superstructure for the main
issue-the treasurership, but it was a
forlorn sort of a waif with but little
force and no organization behind it.
The peoples ticket-oc tue Baker
ticket as some were pleased to call it
was gotten up and workedin a systematic,
thorough and proper style, and with the
exception of two aldermen-W. S. De-
Graft and T. w. Gritfin-got there by
safe and overwhelming majorities. For
mayor Jos. Dietrich's inactivity coupled
with Ed. Aliens popularity resulted in q
walkaway for the latter. Ed. Barrett
had no opposition for clerk and j. p.
Kenyon of the First National bank
supported by the Bismarck bank-dis-
tanced his rival Ed. B~runsman, the pres
ent incumbent, and candidate of the
Capital National bank, by "a votes.
John Boyle, for city justice, came neal
falling by the wayside in the race
with E. @. Chase, but the ticket carried
him through, and John will don the
Judicial robe and deal out justice as he
shall interpret she is writ.
II. l.. Nicholson made a single. handed
fight for alderman in the first ward, his
running mate M. P. Slattery, being TOO
busy dealing out groceries to get out
in the storm. Patterson and Flynn found
it an easy task to round up safe majcrities.
In the Second ward DeCsraff didn't
seem to be in it, and the two ReiGs-
Frank and Henry-both popular and
hard workers-got there with ease.
In the Third there was no opposition
to that popular old timer Shed Lambert
and his running mate, L. e. johnson,
and in the Fourth ward Tim Griffin, in
a three-cornered fight, got knocked out
by seven votes by Thos. Cunningham.
Amos Robidou had no opposition.
The result by wards is as follows,

but not official:

Important to Stockmen and Farmers,

Important to &tockmen and Farmers.
Hon. III. 7. Helgesen, commissioner of
agriculture and labor says, cit has oc-
~casionally been represented to me that
in some places there is a tendency of
owners Of mares to avoid patronizing
SIZES that have received certificates
under chapter ZIG of the laws of 1891,
because of preferring that liens shall
not be filed against their mares and
colts; and that horses receiving certif-
Gates are in this way Disseminated
against. I have no possible interest in
the matter in any way, but for the bene-
fit Of owners of mares I desire to say
that when they breed to a horse without
a certificate they have no guaranty that
he is what he claims to be, except the
word Of the owner, unless they see his
certificate Of registry in some reputable
horse society. The object Of the law
in question is to protect owners of mares
from being imposed upon by breeding to
grade or scrub stock under representa-
ton that it is thoroughbred, and at the
same timeto protect wne Of genuine
thoroughbreds against poor stock sailing
under false colors. The law of 1891 re-
quires the owners OF stations to submit
to the commissioner conclusive proof
that the horee is what he claims to be,
and breeders to horses with such a GER
titicate can be assured that they ara not
being imposed upon. In my Opt icn the
protection afforded to owners Of mares
is even greater than that enjoyed by
stallion owners"

Brides offered New jersey LEGISLATORS.

The charges of corruption in the
New Jersey legislature in conue ction
with the Reading coal combination are
growing daily more vehement and spe-
cific. Senator Rogers contributes the
most startling chapter to the story of
corruption. He says he was approach
ed on the morning of the final vote on
the bill legalizing the gigantic coal
combine Of the Reading railroad with
the Jersey Central, Lehigh Valley and
Lackawanna railways and was offered
bribe in the specific sum Of $4,000.
He Indignantly repelled the corrup-
zionist, who was an old acquaintance
of the Senator. ''But they still lacked
one vote Of majority" says Senator
Rogers, "and this agent of the combi-
nation came to me afterwards and told
me that when he reported to his prin-
cipal they authorized him to make a
second offer to me this time of sum
many times larger than the original
$4,000. But the agent refused to
make me this second offer. He told
his principals it was useless. 1t is
charged that $3,OOO,OO0 was brought
to Trenton by the agents of the capi
talists and stock jobbers who were te

that no arrangement can be arrived at

A Faithful Chief Executive.
Wilmington Messenger.

Wilmington Messenger
Gov. Holt is worthy mana man
of integrity and sound business capaci-
ty. He has managed his own private
affairs with success, and has shown
himself to be practical, levelheaded
busin SIS man. He had good educa-
tlonal advantages having been a stu
dent at the University, and is a man
of considerable wealth. He has for a
long time been one Ct the most sue
cessful cotton manufacturers in North
Carolina. We know nothing to his
detriment. So far as the 'Messen qer
knows he has been a faithful, capable,
diligent Chief Executive The obiec-
tion We have urged against some of
his official acts is the objection We
have urged against his predecessors in
office-tne use and abuse of the par
doning power to the injury of the
State by interfering with the findings
of the courts. This abuse will exist
so long AS the absurd one man power
is allowed to continue in Republic =
in State in which the citizens are
the real sovereigns. Gov. Holt has
not abused his privilege more than
the other Democratic Governors dit
we think, and perhaps his pardons art
not 50 numerous.

State Veterinarian Needed.

In the Bulletin, issued this week by
the department of agriculture, Com
missioner Robinson says: "As we
view the matter, the State should
have veterinary surgeon. And we
very seriously doubt whether aEy
money could.be more judicioraly ex-
pended than in the employment of
veterinarian who thoroughly under
stands the diseases of stock. Our
State is comparatively free from all
infectious diseases to which horses and
cows are subject. All citizens, no
doubt, very much desire that We
should continue to be free from such
pests and one of the best means by
which to continue the exclusion oe
diseases is to prevent their spreading,
should they occur, by treating success
fully the diseased animals. Ii would
hardly be possible to treat disease
successfully without the assistance
and advice of a veterinarian. And,
besides, the large majority of persons
who raise stock are poorly able to en-
ploy veterinarian, whose services
and travelling expenses would neces-
sarily be heavy, and beyond the ability
of our people to employ"
