" mere WI. LdWlef was stopping ana
inquired FOR Mr.. L.awler. but the clerk
had not seen him that morning. Mr..
Logan then went TO Mr. Lawlers room
and raped repeatedly on the door but
received no response. Mr.. Logan ar
rived home in the afternoon at three
o'clock and an hour afterward mos
sage was received that MIR. Lawler was
dead. 1t was presumed that Mr.. Law
Ter died from the stroke of apoplexy
during the night and was lying in his
room when the attempt was made TO
arouse him
Mr.. Lawler has not been we'll of late
and for the past two or three weeks
has suffered with cold and an attack
Of the grippe, otherwise he has been
in good health.
j. d. Lswler was born in Erie county,
New York, in 1855, of Irish ancestry,
who settled in Wisconsin in 1857. Mr..
Lawler came to Mitchell in 1882 and
became interested in townsites on the
Milwaukee railroad extensions in the
west. In the next year he purchased
an interest in the First National bank,
which he has retained up. to the pre-
sent time. In November 1886 he was
elected to the territorial council and in
October 1887 he was appointed terri
torial treasurer by Gov. Church, in
which capacity he served Until the
territory was admitted as two states
He was prominent in the councils of
the Democratic party and for many
years has been a member of the Demo-
q member of the executive committee
OF that body. In national politics he
was member of the Democratic con-
gressional committee of the fifty-third
congress.
During Mr.. LAWYERS residence in
Mitchell he has been identified with
all the interests which have assisted
in making Mitchell one of the popular
and leading towns of the state. Mr.
Lawler had wide and extended ac-
Quaintance over the whole northwest
and enjoyed the esteem, respect and
confidence Of all who knew him. AS
president Of the First National bank he
has possessed the confidence of finan-
ciers OF the state and his banking in
stitution was among the leading ones
of the state.
In 1897 Mr.. Lawler was married to
Miss Sturgis and as a result of that
union four children have been born:
Jerusha, Catherine. Sturgis and Nina,
who with their mother are left to
mourn the death of a kind, loving and
indulgent father, whose life was bound
up in cheerful and happy home. Mr..
Lawler's mother, four brothers, Joseph,
Daniel, Thomas and Clement, and q
married sister still survive him. Mr.
Lawler's life insurance amounted to
between $50 900 and $4,000.
The death of John D. Lawler will re-
move from this community man who
has had much to do with the prosperity
of this town. He always had the best
interests of Mitchell at heart and
hardly an enterprise has been started
but what has had his encouragement
in a financial way.
1t was hoped that the remains Of
MIR. Lawler would be brought to Mitch
ell but telegram from r. D. Welch
this morning stated that the remains
would probably be taken to Prairie du
Chen and the funeral services be held
there Friday.

Col. Hollis Lecture.

a large and appreclative audience
listened to the lecture delivered by
Col Holt Thurday night. The speaker
began with an illustrated talk which
proved very amusing and interesting.
The pictures represented life in farm
yard and portrayed the rayages of the
rats among the chickens, the efforts of
the mother hens to check the evil and
the uselessness of the old rOosters
There were some plain hits made that
were very amusing and pointed. The
speaker then gave his attention to
discussion of prohibitio in South Da-
kota. That there will be occasional
violati of the law is to be expected
In our own state the trouble has been
that temperance people after securing
a prohibitory law have left it to enforce
itself. The lecture was listened to with
intense interest by those present and
at its close many went forward and
signed the pledge.

A TEMPERANCE REVIVAL.

Col. Holt, an Illinois Man, viii Devote
Some Time to the Work Here
Col. Holt, who has been talking
temperance and prohibition in various
cities in the state for several months,
made his debut before Mitchell audi
ence at the court house Wednesday
evening. He arrived during the day
and was not expected until the 10Th,
and placed his supporters at disadvan-
tage in not being able to advertise the
opening meeting very extensively.
However, when Rev. Mr.. Bradford
introduced him to his audience he had
the pleasure of looking into large
numb Der Of faces. He announced that
he was here under the auspices of the
W. G. t. u, and as to how long he
would hold his meetings said that they
would keep going until they stopped
The speaker held meetings at Sioux
Falls for 40 nights and will return there
for % nights more. His address was
OF general nature, touching on vari-
Gus subjects including temperance,
religion prohibition, etc. The colonel's
idea Of his opening night was to get
himself advertised, talked about, and
then the people would go to see what
kind Of fellow he was. The colonel
has large fund Of jokes and With
cisms which he intersperses through
his lecture which he enjoys as heartily
as does his audience. AT the close of
his talk he gave every body in the
house a chance to sign his pledge and
number embraced the opportunity
The meetings will be continued every
night with frequent afternoon meetings.

THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAN
COUNTY. OREGON.

Weyler's career in Cuba has been
one continuation Of blunders and
failures, but the most serious mis-
take he has thus far made was the
assassination of Maceo Nothing
co I'D have been done to have
aroused more general sympathy
for the Cubans than the treacher-
ous murder of this daring leader,
nor could anything have been done
to bring the Spanish forces into
greater disrepute. II was a viola
ton Of all rules of civilized warfare
to entice an enemy into a trap un-
der the guise of a friendly council
and then murder him. BY this
act the Spaniards have forfeited
all claims of civilization. and can
not longer expect other powers to
hold aloof and see such butchery
continue. This dastardly act of
barbarism cannot be contenanced
by the civilized world, nor will
it have a tendency to allay public
sentiment in thiscountry. On the
contrary, the sympathy of even
such conservative men as the pres
ident must be aroused for the Gu
bans, and it will now be q difficult
matter to restrain congress from ac-
knowledging Cuban independence.
