THE REASON FOR 1T.

Sometime ago we saw in the
NEWS that the church at Cheese
quake, a few miles from South Am
boy, was closed for the first time in
one hundred and fifteen years. Yes
terday we learned that there were
reasons for it being closed and the
reason we learned was this. The
preacher was so popular among the
people that at the last service at
tempted to be held the congregation
consisted of one lady and a small
girl and whether the old fable OF the
dog and COW came to his mind or not
we are unable to say, but we learned
that he acted the same perfectly. He
closed up the church, taking the key
with him, thereby virtually saying
il he could not preach no one else
could.

gates are elected by districts, instead
of by wards, as they were last year.
In order to elect the entire delega-
ton from any ward to Il nominating
convention, it is necessary to have a
plurality of the Republican or Dem
ocratic votes cast in every election
district in that ward. If a plu-
rality of votes is not obtained in any
election district, it means that the
delegates from that election district
are lost, no matter how big the ma
jority may be in the total vote of the
ward.
How to Vote.
On September %, each Republican
or Democratic voter requests his par
ty ticket of the board of election and
registry. He hen receives the Off
cial party ballot, which he takes with
him to the voting booth. The candi-
dates of both factions of the party
/, for delegates to the various con-
ventions, and 2, for ward and town
ship officers, will appear on this bal
lot.
The voter must erase every name
of a candidate for delegate to a con-
v~ention and of a candidate for a ward
or township Office for whom he does
not wish to vote by drawing a line
through the lame with the lead pen
Gil provided in the booth. All names
that he desires to vote for are left
unscratched. If a ticket is voted with
ont scratching off the names of the
faction that you are opposing, your
ticket will not count.

General Laws of Minnesota for 1895,
and I will not do so.
But to the suggestions that may be
found in this report, in its analysis
permit me to add this: that more
careful supervision than has seeming
ly been hitherto exercised over the
various departments or offices of the
city would not be detrimental to the
service, not alone with respect to the
offices and business of the clerk and
the treasurer-as to them by unan-
nounced audits by a board of audit,
as I believe is by law prescribed
but with respect also to other Off
GERS and their accounts, as for ex-
ample, the justices of the peace, the
police officers, the street commission
(iy, ic
city, of city physician.
Also, that, under the letter of the
law above referred to- contracts for
work, materials, supplies, property,
ETC., involving the expenditure OF more
than $4,000 may be lawfully made
only upon advertised invitations tor
bids-to the lowest bidder-for that
judicious and strict economy seems to
be demanded by the present condi-
tie saving, without detriment to the
service, might be effected by some
reduction Of salary, at the proper
time. e. g. the treasurers, but
greater saving Will doubtless HOW
from the pending Strengthening Of
certain water mains, the proposed dis
continuation of bringing of water
pipes to street curbs gratuitously, the
proposed use of lead water pipes in
lieu of iron pipes, the increased use
of water meters now insisted on, ETC.,
tho | rather believe that to make
the water works plant self sustaining,
including payment of the $175O.OO an

you will early need to increase the
