that he does not put bis light under n Bush

Then we have the two Members Haluaer

District If Dr.. kalmer's state of health al
lows It, he will be put up as a candidate for
the same District no doubt together with
his friend 0. H. Schmiegelow. Now, there
can be no doubt of it, DR.. Knlmer is Il very
highly talented gentleman, and if those
gifts mean anything nowadays, he is the
man to be leader of the Legislative Body
he has several times had a seat in the Couu-
Gil, and each time performed his duties with
so much zeal and interest, and per

partially that his b%itterest political enemies
could not but admit and admire his talents
and abilities; trpe it is that he oftentimes
came by ri8idity of purpose aud individual
efforts to do what IS right and uphold the
dignity Of the Council. in all respects to
maintain order even if giving offence still,
he never shrinked. and in the Council, par

raised because he held on to Order and to-
Law, it was DR.. Kalmer who said If you
think me wrong, | am not willing to bow to
your wrong conceptions, but am ready to give
up as your Chairman. DR.. Kalmer is a man
OF integrity, and could not please all

that IT is a very difficult thing, and arbitrary
a chairman must be it is not pleasant to, any
man, Lor is it agreeable to those who
are near and around him. Oftentimes he
has durlng the last term been placed in very
tedious, difficult and perplexing positions
and relations, but he has with tact and
earnestness of purpose overcome them all.
Where would it be possible to find another
person who could have afforded such assis-
lance and worked 50 assiduousIv, even under
prosecutions here as elsewhere, in that case
about the Leper Asylum and in the framing
and carrying out OF the Laws in connection
Herewith.
