combined. And they come from all fac

eject comes out in the Erie Republican
Record endorsing Hoch. and now Gov
ernor Riddle prints the following about
him in the Minneapolis Messenger.
Without particle of doubt the peo-
pie of Ottawa county favor the election
of Ed HOch as state printer. His de-
serving rises above the claims of local
ing. The best speeches of the cam
Daien were made by Mr.. HOch, and for
many years he has been a counselor of
the party, with honesty and good judg-
ment to back him. There are candidates
we know of who never made speech
for the party in their lives, and couldn.
if they tried. who never were capable
of counsel worth considering, but why
should they stand in the way of men OF
such splendid capability as Mr.. Hoch ?''

he isn't. All the men we have heard
of in public life heretofore have the
reputation of having been made success
full by the wise counsel and general all

here | was told II would be no use
for me 10 stop here as | would be
killed. But ! was not afraid, for
knew was directed by the Lord and
would be preserved by His power. At
first l was impressed TO go slowly at
my work. delivered few tracts and
conversed with those / came In con-
tact with. In this way / became ac-
qualnted with the people. For some
reason | was led TO bring my message
to the highest authorities In the town.
A Methodist preacher here commenced
TO warn the people against me and my
tracts, but as general rule the effect
OF that was TO awaken the people 10
investigate "Mormonlsm." Then | COM
menced to canvass from house TO house
and now have delivered my message
10 almost every family In the town and
my tracts have been thankfully re-
celyed, Some time ago | had the priv
ilege TO preach In a public hall before
about 400 people Of all classes was
led TO invoke the blessing Of the Al
mighty upon the country and It's in
habltants, and since that time every
thing seems 10 have changed for the
better. The whole community seems
to be friendly towards me, and many
have told me that they had been great

pie as a rule are courteous kind, in
