FOR PRIMARY REFORM.
Alono j. Stroud Republican Nominee for Representative
in State Legislature, Outspoken in Regard
to This Measure.

Alonzo j. Stroud, republican nomi-
nee for representative in the state legis-
lature from this county, is one OF nat
ure's noblemen. To know him Is TO
love him, and all of the old settlers
know him, and know this to be true.
For the purpose OF introducing him to
the more resent settlers OF The county,
we print this biographical sketch.
Mr.. Stroud was born in Cuyahogo
county, Ohio, May 9Th, lS43. He put
kin his boyhood days on farms in that
! vicinity, and as he grew older worked
in saw mills. When the war came on,
he enlisted in the l4th Ohio Vol. Inft.,
and served six months, when he was
discharged, but soon re-enlisted in the
quarter-master's department, Army
OF the Cumberland, and was with that
branch of the service nine months
When the supply train was burned 10y
rebel raiders near Chattanooga, he was
placed in charge OF the government
buildings at Bridgeport, until he was

was with his regiment until the war
ended.
He came 70 Northern Michigan in
1875, taking up homestead at HOr-
tons Bay, and also built small saw
mill at that place. He operated the
mill aud cleared up his farm, during
the years when, as he expressed it
"bagas and cornstalks were legal ten
der" He soon built larger mill, and
was interested In numbering until the
timber IN that vicinity was wiped out
about twelve years ago. During this
time he kept improving his farm. and
now has l20 acres of the original home
stead under cultivation. and lately has
cYSUted his time entirely 60 the farm,
living ina cosy home at Horizons Bay,
overlooking the sparkling watsrs Of
Pine Lake. He was married in 1886 to
Miss Celia A. Norton, and among the
ladies Mrs. Strobe has as many friends
as has her husband among the men
They have no children
MIR Stroud was elected supervisor
in the early days, when Bay township
was part of Evelne. aud was later
supervisor Of Bay when that TOWNSHIP p
was organized, serving twelve years
in such capacity. He was electe | sher-
if in the early eighties and served one
term, declining a re nomination for
business reasons. He was Judge Of
probate two terms, being first elected
twelve years ago. He filled all his
public trusts conscientiously and well.
giving the people his best efforts, and
While he occupied various public offices
he was not then, and 10 not now, an
office-seeker, the friends who knew aud
appreciated his many good qualities
pushing him Tor preferment. 1t was
in this same manner that he received
the nomination for representative at
the last republican convention. He
was not seeker for Office-the nomin-
alton came TO him because his friends
felt that he was a good man for the
position, and would fill the office to
the satisfaction of the people. and
would do his very best to truly repre-
sent his constituents.

Relative to his position on "Prim-

"Faust," Next Friday.

The name OF "Faust" conjures Ia
the mi nds OF theater.goers the name OF
Porter J. White. He has given his own
production OF the play after his own
manner. Last night when Porter j.
White gave his semi-spectacula pro
duction there was very little standing
room in'the house. Many had doubt
less Seen the play, and Mr.. Whites
expect. The play was beautifully and
elabOratey staged so far as scenery
and electrical effects were concerned
and was also well costumed. But the
production did not depend entirely up
on the beauty Of the stage settiug nor
the bril!iance OF the electrical display;
but the acting was excellent and much
Of it above the ordinary. The Mep-
nisto of Mr.. White was well conceived
and in harmony with the prOduction.
The Marguerite of Miss Olga Verne
was sweet, beautiful and strong. The
delineation Of Faust was also excellent.
The audience always discriminating
did not allow strong lines, finely spok-
en- by Mr.. White, to pass unnoticed.
1t was good deal of a surprise last
night and altogether unexpected. Mr..
White has made unparalleled strides
toward the pinnacle OF success and is
today one of the most promising young
stars upon the American stage.-Gra-

fore. He had the unpleasant feeling
that he was being Swallowed.
Bancroft stepped up to his COM
patriot.
Il beg your pardon" he said, ex-
tending a penciled card from Banson,
but believe you have my hat, and
yours is in my luggage"
If the detective had been astonished,
Stroud was dumfounded. Through
out his years of toll a trip to Europe
had been his ambition. And here was
a man who had taken the trip merely
to recover a hat picked UP by some
one else by mistake.
When he had recovered sufficiently
to act, he reached for the hat above
his head and handed it silently to
Bancroft. Harry turned down the
band with hands that almost trem-
bled. There on the silk the name was
still legible, alicia Bronson"
Stroud accepted his own hat from
the hands of Bancroft's man with SUI
preme indifference, but he seemed
loath to part with the young Ameri-
can.
II am glad there is some one here
to vouch for me- he explained, for
/ may have to send for you. Some
fool detective has been watching me
ever since / landed. 1 didn't know
what they want me for, but l didn't
do it, no matter what it is. He Is sit
ting over there now"
And Stroud pointed to the unfor-
tunate shadow" who was still trying
to look as If he enjoyed a lemon
squash when his thirst cried aloud for
Scotch and soda. Bancroft looked
inquiringly at Swinton, who nodded.
Swinton in turn looked inquiringly at
Bancroft, who also nodded A mo-
ment later the detective was free to in
dulge his thirst, Bancrofts man was
standing at attention with his masters
luggage In hand, ready for the next
move, and the bewildered Swinton. at
a word from Bancroft, was threading
his way among the tables.
Stroud put on his hat. then jerked
It off again, and spoke with a GENTLE
ness and hesitation which would have
astonished the men who had worked
with him and for him in Montana.
London may be all right when
you've been here before and know
folks, but it's darned lonesome when
you haven't. II you wouldn't mind
meeting my daughter and having din
ner with US, ibid be id glad"
Bancroft murmured something
about the pleasure OF meeting Amer p
can girls 80 far from home Every
thing seemed Joyous. now that he had
that name and address under his
thumb. He sent his man down 10
register and followed Stroud 20 the
M. They paused before the latters
