stokes and the Governor.
The ten Republican Senators who
visited the Governor, yesterday, in the
interest of Senator Stokes candidacy for
Secretary of State, were engaged in a
worthy cause, and they deserved a more
cordial reception than they received from
Mr.. Griggs. So long as a Republican
must succeed to this high office, the
people will no doubt prefer Mr.. Stokes
to any other in the State.
Mr.. Stokes is a gentleman of personal
unusual powers of mind, and his business
training is such as to fit him for the
Office to which he aspires. He is pain
fully afflicted, of course, with the mental
alterations which constitute Republican,
ism, but this is his misfortune, not his
fault. He has never been the tool of the
bosses, nor has he been more devoted
to party advantage than the public good.
In addition to these things, Mr.. Stokes
deserves well of his party. No individual,
unless perhaps it be Foster M. VOORHEES,,
has done more to lend a semblance of
greedy and reckless partisans that Re-
p~ublicanism has assembled at Trenton
for several years past. Nobody has done
more by his energy and his ready tongue
to make the cause of Republicanism seem
plausible to the voters of the State.
1t is understood that Mr.. Stokes is
really in need of this place. Ills health
is impaired, and he can only continue in
his present line of business with con-
siderable suffering and danger. His
health has been impaired largely in the
service of his party. in the effort to elect
John W. Griggs Governor and William
Mckinley President. The party owes him
now the opportunity to rest and re-
cuperate. and it will be a shameful thing
if it is not given to him..
The gentlemen who shouted for Mr..
Griggs a couple of years ago, are be-
ginning to find out that the Democratic
estimate of him was more correct than
theirs. He has brought neither lustre
nor strength to the Governors chair, and
has therefore added nothing to the
strength of the party. In his dealing with
themselves he has been fshily cold. His
range of vision reaches no farther than
the Senatorial election of 1888. and its
scope extends only to his own claim on
the vacant shoes of James Smith of
Essex They see they nave made a bad
bargain and they are kicking themselves.

COMMUNICATION.
Editors of the ProNEsn ExpRrss:

notice that in looking over the coun-
ty commissioners proceedings, that near
ly every other item is grant to the coun-
ty poor; in fact it is poor, poor, poor, all
the way. Surely something must be
wrong, for has it not been told us that
the county of Pembina was very pro-
ductive place: Now, Mr.. Editor, to
come right down to plain talk, l think
that our county commissioners are lit
tie too liberal in their donations. espec-
tally with public money. We think if
they were asked to put their hands in
their own pockets in place ofthe public's,
that donations would be few and far be-
tween. In fact, Mr.. Editor, if such work
is not stopped, venture to say that we
will soon all be on the county. Are not
the people grooming at present under
the heavy taxation? l would suggest
that each township, town or city, look
after their own poor. You know MIR.
Editor, that the good Book says that,
ut is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive;;" then why not let us all have a
share in the blessing, in place of lavish
ing it on few. Another item, $3.50 for
Keely institute, making $40 within the
last year to cure men i'll a prohibition
state. Fellow citizens, is it not ridicul-
Gus? Is it not as much as to say, Boys
go ahead; take all you want Of the damn
able stuff, and when you think of reform-
ing, we, the county commissioners, will
give you $3.50 and you will lust have a
grand time, regular picnic.
Yours Truly, Pratttord.

A GRAND SUCCESS.

The home talent entertainment
at Crockett's Opera House on
Wednesday evening, for the ben
eft of the Virginia Public Ii
brary, was most decided sue
cess from any point of view, aud
much credit is due the interested
workers for the compliments
achieved.
The program, opening with a
song by the Virginia GIee Club
and closing with the farce come
dy, The Haunted Inn," was so
rendered as to receive merited
rounds of applause and repeated
eacores, many responses being
given. AS one of the numbers
the Peak Sisters, trained under
the efficient direction of Mrs. M.
G. Palmer, is deserving of spec
ial note, the Sisters acquitting
themselves with great credit.
The musical and literary portion
of the program elected the ap-
probation Of the audience, while
the closing act of the Queen City
Minstrel Troupe in their presen-
tation of the light comedy drama
"We'll Meet Him at the Reading
Rooms brought down the house.
The gross receipts of the en-
tertainment so near as we learn
were $87 80, the total expenses
being 1923. 80, Leaving a net bal
ance of 5000.
The Association contemplates
presenting the entertainment in
our neighboring cities, and will
discuss such proposition at the
meeting of the executive com.
m1ttee this evening. Should they
decide upon short tour of the
range cities, we can assure our
neighbors of an entertainment
we'll worthy of their patronage.

the time Of her death. On the
18th day Of February, 1870, she
was married to William B. Pratt,
then a progressive young man of
Stanton, Mich, where they re-
sided for nearly twelve years,
since which time they have re-.
sided in Duluth and this city. OF
this happy union three children
were born, Hattie, Burt and Su.
san, aged II, Is and II 'years re-
spectively, all of whom together
with the loving husband, survive
to mourn the loss of a tender
mother and loving wife.
Short funeral services were
held at the house on Monday,
the Rev. T. G. McGonigle pre-.
siding, and the remains were
taken to the happy scenes of
childhood at Batavia for inter-
ment.
An inscrutable providence has
removed from our midst a noble
woman; but the memory of the
sweet, true life of the departed
will bring to the bereaved ones
relics of Joy; the imperishable
memories on the page of recol-
lection will be read IN the night
time of sorrow and lead on to
that bright hope of an eternal
reunion of souls, where there
is neither death, sorrow nor sep.
aration.
In this their hour of sad attic
ton the bereaved husband AND
motherless children have the
heartfelt sympathy of the entire
community.
