Sadi Carnot the president of the
French republic was assassinated last
Sunday by an Italian anarchist named
Santo. It occurred at Lyons during
the presidents visit to the exhibition
of arts and sciences, the cowardly cur
plunging dagger into the de-
fenceless presidents breast, inficting
wound from which he died shortly
afterward. The police had hard
work to keep the Infatuated people
from tearing the assassin limb from
limb and it was with difficulty they
kept the excited crowd from lynch
ing him. Of the dead president the
! Pioneer Press says editorially:
France will mourn the death of the
prudent, cool and sagacious states
man who has SO successfully guided
it's destinies since 1887, with per-
haps profounder sorrow than would
have been felt for some of those more
snowy and brilliant leaders who have
been apt to captivate the imagin-
alton of the french people, for he was
recognized as just the man that was
needed at the head of French affairs.
The people had that entire confidence
in his integrity, his patriotism and
his good sense that in all the fuctu-
atoms of French politics since he was
elected president seven years ago
there has scarcely been a serious
thought of disturbing him.

There was prohibition lecture given at
the Donnelly school, under the auspices of
the Morris Prohibition Club, on Saturday
night. The prohibition quartet, composed
of Arch;e-Stone, Rev. Hong Chas. Pepper
and J.. Thoele, were on hand and did credit
to their musical talents. Archie Stone
spoke in his mild and easy manner, on the
innumerable vices traceable to saloons and
the liquor habit. He held the audience
spell bound for about fifteen minutes with
his eloquent appeal in behalf of prohibition,
after which the glee club sang a song. The
Rev. Hcgg then took the floor and expa-
tiated for nearly an hour on the vileness of
the republican and democratic parties in
particular, and all other parties in general,
| with the exception of the prohibition party.
| He told the good people that they would all
go to hell sure if they did not join the pro-
hibition party. We have been told since
our infancy, that if we were not believers
| in Christ we would 60 to the bad place, but
| it is the first time in our memory that we
have heard that politics had anything tod
| with heaven. The Rev. gentleman wound
up by abusing everybody, with the excep-
| ton of prohibitionists, and to cap the CHI
| max told us that a temperance man who
was not prohibitionist' 'smelled like
skunk"
