Both speakere did full justice to the t mat.
Mr Rats wished his friend, Kibler, every
suceees in his new home. What puzzled
Mr. Bata moat was what Mr Kibler would
do in the matter of polities. In Dakota
there are no Grits or Tories, and he would
certainly be at a loss, but expeoted to henr
in a short time of his being Governor of
North Dakota. The treasurer, Mr. Brown,
spoke highly of Mr. hibler as a neighbor
and a man, and wished him nothing but
happitiees in his new homf,, with prosperity
for hitnself and faintly. The next toast
was to the medical profession, and ample

The dootor was aorry that his friend Mr.
Ribler was leaving, and the opinion of the
public was that Mr. Kibler was a loes to

words of praise could be heard. He was
pleased to know that be was going to a
good country, and wished him eyery sutt-
ee in his new field. He would be pleased
to hear the report come back in a short
time that Mr. Kibler wan Governor of the
State. The next toast was to our Educa-
tional System, and was eloquently replied
to by our head teacher, Mr. WiS0014/3; be
was setisfied that Mr. Kibler could not be
leaving this country for any fault in our
Educational System, as he believed it was
one of the best in inerioa; unleae it was
that Mr. Kibler had beoome so well posted
in the edueetion of the; country that he
inlended to be elected Miuister of Education
of Dakota; he hoped and Srusted that Mr
Kibler would emceed in his new home.
