John not the ex-Governor delivered a course of temperance lectures in Alma this week There was a considerable number in attendance at each I nf thai? meetinira. Both were fair sneakers but Mrs. St. John's speech was of the two l.o l.Atlpr. She spoke many wholesome truths and of them were not altogether pleasing to the tastes of her auditors.

She said we ask the German to throw away his beer and while preaching moral reform to him we forget to discard the use of tobacco ourselves. Even the ladles with their pnie in for a share of mild cen- iu cro Wa would comnel the foreigner to obey one law and by precept and example in duce hiia to breaK other laws, until we can be consistent we cannot expect all the laws to be obeyed. When the bartender receives the foreign immigrant with a heart ier welcome than does the representative of the church we need not wonder that the uvihle example is the sooner recip rocated. In too maay cases he entertains the more friendly feeling for the one wlo a foremost in extending the hand of friend ship on his landing on our shores. Mrs.

St, John's speech abounded in many good thniiehts and if temperance lecturers would auccecd in bringing about needed reforms they would do well to follow along the lines laid down by this eloquent advocate of tem peranca At bl home near Tcuiplln on Wednesday.

EDITOR SIGNAL: Dear Sir: I will try and give vou a short sketch of the terrible cyclone we had here on Tuesday, April 2.rth. It commenced in the Nation south of the Canadian River swept houses, barns, and every thing before it. Two men were killed on the Johnson farm south of the Canadian. Then it crossed the river into Oklahoma, and then mowing a swath about two miles wide killed every one that was not in cellar or dugout. Hogs, cattle and horses are piled in hea in the track of the storm.

The haryest of death was terrible. Of the O'Connor family of twelye but two are left aliye, I'p to this time 28 dead bodies haye been found, and others cannot recover. I saw chickens with the feathers all off and pine boards driven through fence posts sights I never saw or read of before. Families escaped with their lives, but their claims are stripped of everything. I was one mile north of the storm when it swept by with the fury of ten thousand demons, and I could see it whirling and tumbling things in the air.

One house is said to have been taken up and carried seven miles and not broken, but that is hard to believe for I haven't seen anything but that is twisted into hundreds of pieces. I have been along the path of destruct ion for twelve miles and everything is a complete ruin birds, rabbits, and wild game of all kinds are found along the track of the storm, even the river was Bwept dry where the cyclone crossed, People are sending in provisions and clothing, and the distressed are being cared for. Yours Respectfully, Cha-. Clothier. Mr.

Clothier iB an uncle of our county perintendent, and moved to Oklahoma soon after the opening. A Damaflna; Chart. Referring to the statement made about riotous conduct In Alma on election day the News says: "We have heard much worse things said. For Instence, the statement made by the chairman of the caucus which nominated the successful city ticket, that the credit of the city was not good for a barrel of oil. Tnis implied a most damaging charge against the management of city Yes, that was a damaging charge, and considering the fact that the News so considered it we are surprised that our friend took a stand favor able to the parties who made the mak ing of such a charge possible.

We be lieve the editor of the News to be con scientious and Inclined to do right, but like the pilgrim who went down to Jericho and fell among thieves, he somehow 1n our city affairs got on the wrong side of the fence. The damaging charge in plying a bad state of affairs goes back three years when the rule of corruption was broken, Atthc last election members of the same old ring, knowing the rottenness of their past record, tried to get another foothold by raising a false issue and by enlisting under the banner of the law and order league attempted to gain what they by their dishonest methods had lost. The people of Alma respect an honest foemanand are willing to excuse those who were innocently drawn into the late maelstrom because they were in strange waters and ignorant of the current. An occasional shipwreck will make them more cautious and they will follow none but trustworthy pilots. No damaging charges can be made against the present mayor and council, and on this question no one is so well nuali fled to render a decision as the people.

Their Tolce was heard at th last election and there was no uncertainly about the sound of that voice. L. PRIES, DEALER IN GENERAL MERCHANDISE, A Full Line of Clothing, Dry Goods and Groceries. All of which will ho told CHEAP FOR CASH. Country Products Wanted.
