never heard before and saw as perhaps
they shall never see again this side the
portals Of the "City of God,' the 1nas-

The response to this appreciation of his
address was in his own inmitable style

audience. The occasion was one of srea
enjoyment to all present, and resulted in
the addition of several new members to

He was affable, gentle and Chrlst-like,
as tender and III Oldest as lady, merciiul
to the poor, kind to his neighbors, a
friend to the oppressed. His ear and
heart were ever open to the appeal OF
the needy and afflicted. His honor was
the most sensitive, of the highest chris
tan type, ever alive to his Obligations to
his fellow man. He was great sufferer
vet he bore it without murmur. with
othing less than christian fcr'itude.

was remarkable His thoughts seemed
to dwell on a Saviour love; and short
while before he died, he asked Bro. Vann
to sing for him his favorite song: Saviour

suggestive Of his living close to God.
III his death, our church and community

he, of course, being a Democrat. An
election was called by the candidates
and the DaiIoting began in Pioneer hall
last Saturday night. The meeting was
pres ided over by u. NJ. Nelson, and
after deciding that it would take two
thirds vote to nominate. the balloting
began to decide among six candidates.
Five ballots were taken and Mr.. Murphy
led on all of those. he meeting then
adjourned until last night. when the
balloting was renewed ana thrice re-
peated.
The first stood: p. +. Murphy %,
Joseph Mueller "A; the second, L. f.
Murphy 81, Joseph Mueller 60; the third,
p. f. Murphy 81. Joseph Mueller 80.
Only four votes were lacking on the last
ballot to give Z. +. Murphy the required
twO-thirds vote and Mr.. Mueller stepped
before the meeting and withdrew his
name, acknowledging his opponent as
the choice of the people. A motion was
then made by Mr.. Owens and carried to
make the election OF p. f. Murphy
unanimous. and the chairman having
declared him to be the universal choice
of the Democrats of North st. Paul for
postmaster, the meeting closed. The
choice made and confirmed by the Dem
OcratS seems to be satisfactory to the
citizens of North st. Paul regardless of
political feeling.
