Skeeter to Run for Minister

[Daily Prophet]

OCTOBER 18TH 1887

SKEETER TO RUN FOR MINISTER ANOTHER CENTRE-LEFT CANDIDATE

Mr. Barnabas Skeeter, Dueling Commission Head of Office, will be running for Minister of Magic in this election. For those unfamiliar with him, Mr. Skeeter made waves in the community last January when he proposed that female sanctioned duels should be illegal. After some heated debate, it was brought before the Wizengamot. The decision was made that females were allowed to duel each other outright, as men's equals. Since then, Mr. Skeeter has renounced his male-centric and traditional views for something more progressive. _____________________________________________________________

Also notable is Mr. Skeeter's heroic rescue attempts during the troll attack of Padmore Park in 1885. During the attack, the lower half of his leg was bitten off. That did not stop him, however. Ever ambitious and wanting to help, Mr. Skeeter then switched from the Improper Use of Magic Office (a rather physically demanding occupation) to his current position. This reporter is eager to see how Mr. Skeeter's campaign will go. AUTHOR: IAN PENGLOSS
