LAKE CRYSTAL ITEMS.

The funeral of the late Evaiste
Franchere was largely attended on
Wednesday and was conducted under
the Masonic ritual. Rev. n. B. Foot
preached the funeral sermon.
The people of Lake Crystal had the
privilege of listening to three excel
lent lectures upon one of the greatest
topics before the American people
this week viz. temperance. Rev. e.
o. Taylor, M. A., of Chicago, handled
this much abused subject in a new
way by takinga purely scientific and
physiological aspect of the use of
alcohol and nicotine. A number of
chemical experiments, such as cook
ing an egg, Intoxicating live animals,
and taking the alcohol out of glass
of beer, were performed with success.
Mr.. Taylor has new definition for
the word Temperance" which he
claims is original and he says will
stand the test of criticism it is,
Temperance is the moderate use of
those things that are good in their es-
sential nature, but total abstinence
from all things that are bad in their
essential composition"

MR. HARE's HABITS.
The following explains itself.

The following explain& Itself:
Astoria, Or, May 81. 1894.
Editor Astorian-
In quiet way, some. parties in this
city, WHO are bitter personal enemies of
James w. Hare, are trying to poison the
public mind against him.
Their are stating that If he is elected,
he viii exhibit qualities the very oppo-
site of those he has shown during his
term as postmaster.
In every public position Mr.. Hare has
filled he has been faithful, prompt,
obliging and impartial.
Like many men in this city, Mr.. Hare
has. at times, taken a social" glass
with his friends; the fact that he has
done so is now being vehemently urged
against him in this canvass by men VINO
do the same thing every day of their
lives. Now, in order to save these par
ties any more trouble, l wish to say
that / am credibly informed that Mr..
Hare has pledged his word Of honor to
each and every voter in the county,
that If elected he will not, during his
term of office, drink any vinous, malt
or spirituous liquors, and when Mr.
Hare gives his word to any one, that
person can rely, in implicit confidence
that he will unswervingly keep it.
These parties, who arc indulging in
this style Of campaigning, are not par
ticularly friendly to Mr.. O'Hara, but
they are particularly friendly to one
who was a candidate for an office in
this county. and who was defeated in
his asperations. and this defeated can
didate is bitter enemy Of Mr. Hare's.
Mr.. Hare, If elected, will faithfully,
honestly and courteously fulfill the du-
ties of his office. One thing is certain,
that no one who votes for him will ever
regret it.
Gentlemen, don't be too personal. Mr..
Hare's friends will see to it that if his
reputation Is any further assailed the
character of those who are the authors
of these attacks will be thoroughly VEN
tilated. CITIZEN.
