OBITUARY.

Montgomery Cole was buried at st, GabriePs,
Sugaroaf, on Tuesday June s, 1877. He was
aged 81 years and months,
Mr.. Cole was well known in the County of
Columbia. He had been for some years an
acting Justice Of the Peace, and for a term Of
three years one of the Board of Commissioners
of Columbia county,
He had been long suffering from consump-
ton, which during the last winter rapidly de.
veloped itself, though bearing the daily wasting
of life with full fortitude and resignation. 1t
was the happy fortune of Mr.. Cole to have taken
great interest in the re-erection of ST. Gabrieps
Church, to which he contributed liberaly both
in labors and means. His desire to witness its
completion was most intense, and not only was
that pleasure youchsafed him, but he lived tc
be an eye witness of its conservation, and alsc
to receive himself, upon the same occasion, the
Apostolic rite of confirmation, and to be par
taker of the broken body and shed blood, in com
nemoration of the last supper To him tn,
first and the last And thus he passed away il
the comm union Of the church and in the com
fort Of a reasonable, religious and holy hope

At the spring election the voters of this town
saw fit to continue in office majority of the
last Town Council who voted for the ordinance
requiring cattle to be shut up There was a
hard fight made by the opposition, but they
suffered defeat. The only issue in the elec-
ton was the COW question, and that was decided
by the people in favor of the ordinance.
Last Wednesday night number of petitions
were presented to the council asking for the re-
peal Of the cattle ordinance, and notwthsald-
ing the same question had been already voted
on three times and decided negatively by ma
jority, vote was again insisted on and resulted
in the usual way. All the members who
voted to shut the cows up Immediately offered
to give five dollars each towards pasturng the
cattle of needy persons, but the poor mans
friend' failed to respond. 1t is to be hoped
that the COW business will not be heard from
again, before the next election.

Columbia county has been agitated upon the
Jail question for some weeks past. 1t appear,
that the Commissioners had awarded the CON
tract for building new Jail to parties living in
Schuylkili county when lower bidders were
asking for the work in the county of Columbia
Remonstrances were circulated among the peo-
pie, and numerousy signed. objecting to this
proceeding of building jail on so expensive a
plan as contemplated and the Courts were in-
duced to interfere, Judge Elwel granting an in
junction against the Commissioners, stopping
them from proceeding with the building Of the
Jail as intended by the contract awarded
Wyoming Democrat.
The above would be all right fit did not
happen to be ali wrong, The contract was not
awarded to Schuylkill county parties, although
they were the lowest bidders, but to Columbia
county men who were among the highest in
price. The Courts were not "induced to inter
fere" but acted on formal injunction properly
presented praying that the Commissioners
might be restrained from carrying out the con-
tract. If the Democrat thinks the affairs of this
county worth printing it would be as well for it
editor to read his exchanges before writing hi

When you want to get the news you read the
COLUMBIAN. When you want an office you ex-
pect the paper to announce your name and tell
the people what an excellent man you are.
The large papers have to print your tickets and
posters and all convention papers because the
small ones can't afford it,all of which you think
is right but when you have little printing of
your own to do, you single out some obscure
one horse establishment and patronize that, and
call this business.

season for bass fishing does not commence until
the 1st of July, and those who desire to have
our streams thoroughly ly stocked with these fine
gamy fish should feel it a 3uty 10 compel a rig
id observance of the laws fran I'd for their pro-
lection. The bass are now spawning and every
female captured nterferes largely with the de-
sired increase. Magistrates who reside in the
vicinity of streams, that have been stocked
should not hesitate to exercise the functions o
their Office without regard to persons, and fine
all who are detected in fishing out of the law
ful season. 1t is only by such a course that the
object contemplated by the fishing laws can be
accomplished"
