Election day was usbered In with
an old fashioned blizzard and it was
predicted that the attendance at the
polls would be small On the con-
trary there was to the surprise of
many a goodly gathering due, per-
haps, to the interest taken in the
contest and, perhaps, as one OF our
sages remarked, because there was
nothing else they could do Those
who came from a distance did so
with much labor and pains, chilled
and blinded by the flying sleet, and
all pronounced it a terrible day
While the contest of the elements
continued out of doors. indoors the
contest between opposing political
forces prevailed, broken, we are iu-
forued, by occasional visits to the
storm a-door, t. e. to inspect the
weather with the aid of an Opaque
glass of considerable power. Mag
nus, the democrat, and Magnus, the
lesser representative of both parties,
formed a coalition and by furnish
ing transportation aud by appealing
to the wants of the inner man &C
complished theh ends, much to their
satisfaction and certainly edifying
TO the WITNESSES.
It is to be regretted that the re-
publicans of this district do not pull
together for should they do so it
would be possible to again make
this republican township. But
animosity and selfishness are bad
traits in any family and generally
result in the loss of the object striv
en- for Let us abandon strife and
self ACKNOWLEDGMENT, consider the
welfare of our community and tax
payers and propose for Office the
best and most competent men we
can obtain and without regard to
party, and we will be doing not
only our duty but furthering our
own welfare. We would have pre-
terred that some of the defeated
Candidates had been elected, yet
there are good ones among the new
officials and it will be an object les
son for us to watch their method Of
doing business for others.

Holy Week, and the casualties in the
trenches were very numerous. But
on Good Friday only one man was
killed, ard as this single victim OF
the Holy Day was being laid to rest
at night soldier pointed out to the
chaplain the wonderful markings on
the dead mans breast. There was
tattooed a really beautiful picture of
the Crucifixion, and the bullet that
had reached the heart of the soldier
had pierced the heart of the figure of

AN OVERFLOW OF RICHES.
Discovery Of Great Oil Well Some
thinq of Misfortune

That it is possible to have too much
Of a good thing was discovered by the
owners of an Oil well in the Russian
petroleum district recently. They
bored down 800 feet before oil was
reached. Then the well began to
spout and "gushed" at the rate of $780,
600 barrels a day. 1t continued to
send out Oil at a diminishing rate
until it had spouted 100000. But
the flow was so great that it could
not be controlled and large part of
the Oil escaped and overspread the
adjacent land, doing great injury. The
owners of the well had to pay such
heavy damages to the people whose
land had been over1lowed that the
money they got for the oil they man
aged to save did not amount to
enough to bring them whole out of
the transaction, and thus, though they
struck the greatest "gusher' ever seen
in the Baku district, they lost money
by finding it.
