railroad" to be ade from Centralia
to Vesper and renee to AuburndaIe

wood lands whic would be of great
value to this pttion of the county

I'd ED !:


DIED.-Mrs. Della Farlinger, wife of Oliver
Farlinger, in this city, Feby LIST, 1888, aged
IS years.
The particulars of Mrs. Farlinger's
death is reported by those who attend
ed her as the saddest sight they ever
witnessed. 1t seems that they were
living in very cold house on the hill
near Runyans residence where she was
taken sick after her confinement. For
some time she had no medical assist
ance, medicine was not procured
on account Of their poverty. In this
manner she was neglected until Mrs.
Runyan and Mrs. Nc Cam learned of
her condition. Through Mrs. Run
vans kindness she was brought to her
residence, medical aid summoned and
the best attention given her; but she
had been neglected too long and it was
too late to do any good. She suffered
excruciating pain for three weeks when
death came to her relief. Puss was
taken from her in large quantities up
to the last day of her sickness, but
everything done was of no avail.
Mrs. Runyan and Mrs. Mccain are
entitled to great credit for their kind
ness to this poor unfortunate woman.
AT REST.
We have left thee now dear Della,
In that last eternal sleep;
And we know that thou art peaceful
From that smile upon thy cheek,
When on earth you shared its troubles,
Lying dear ones to tn cir rest;
AS they meet you on your journey,
You can clasp them to your breast.
As we journey on life's pathway,
Though its rough and cloudy too
1t will always make it brighter,
When we think it leads to you.
Rest on, ye friend departed,
Without mUrmur or sigh:
And we will strive to meet you,
In that heavenly home on high.
When we took the last look at thee,
We saw no sign of care;
And it never seemed so near US,
"0nly over there
And though we know you have left us,
And we'll miss thee evermere,
We think we hear you murmur.
''Only gone before"

The WRECKED TAcoMA.-Under this
heading the Portland Journal OF
Commerce published the following
truthful ideas on the subject: "The
investigation about this affair closed
at San Francisco a few days since,
finding Captain Korts guilty of nau-
tical delinquencies enough to dis
grace him for life; but with farci-
cal sympathy, the board merely sus-
pended his license for only two years,
when he is put on liberty to re-enact
his propensity for such wrecking as
he seems to be addicted to. But the
sublimity of his cheek is ghastly
amusing-to hear that Korts thinks
himself i'll treated by the sentence,
and has appealed. That third officer
who was in command of the deck
when the vessel struck the sand, who
could neither hear nor see the break
ers on that clear night, has so far es
capped further notoriety; and it is
apparent that the quasi-murderer
Desmond, the life-station keeper, is
to be kalsomined by the influences
that placed him in the position. His
sentence, one way or the other, would
not restore the nine or ten lives lost
through his brutality, but it is due to
public sentiment for our officials to
exhibit that such a crime against
humanity is not held secondary to
political influences, as seems immi
nent in this case"

As the democrats will be largely in
the majority in the House of Repre-
sentatives of the next congress, the
speakership is a coveted prize, for
which there are number of candi-
dates among the democratic members
elect. Mr. Samuel Randall, OF Penn
sylvania, former speaker, has been
considered Il prominent candidate,
with his election almost assured, un-
til recently, AT least half dozen of
aspirants have come to the front to
dispute his claims. Mr. Randall has
magnanimously asserted that if his
name was in any manner obstructive
to the democratic party that it should
be withdrawn. This alternative will
probably not be forced upon him as
the different candidates seem to be
entering the race upon an equal foot
ing. The latest gossip on this head
indicates that Mr.. Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, is coming to the front as prob
ably the most conspicuous rival with
which Mr.. Randall will be confronted.
The tariff question will have great
deal to do with the choice of the
next speaker, and if these two gentle
men should prove to be the foremost
in the speakership contest, the issue
as between them will be decided on
the merits OF tariff for protection, and
tariff for revenue only.

From Congressman Horr's Speech at Marble

I was amused at Governor Buffers try
ing to make out that had in some way
insulted Lieut.. GOV. Ames at the Middle
sex club dinner, which I attended the
other day. For teacher of manners l
should not 60 to His ExcelleDcy the gov

If he had cOOfined himself to saying
cutting things about me | shOnld not
have minded it, hut he went further and
said that men from Michigan did not
know a ship from hole in the ground.
When he attacks Michigan he attacks
me. The difference IL that / stand by
nv state, while ne seeks only to detract
from his and tarnish her good name and
fame. Prolonged applause.l In Michi-
gan last year there were built almost
twice az many vessels as were built In
Massachusetts. The tonnage of the ves-
sells built in Massachusetts, last year was
5,6O3 tons, while the tonnage of those
built in Michigan was 1898. The
steamships owned in Massachusetts, mt
the present time number 189, while
there are 480 owned in Michigan. The
tonnage Of these steamships In Michigan
is $1,000 tons against $4,000. the tonnage
Of those owned in Massachusetts. Why,
in Michigan we build the largest and
finest iron steam vessels Of any state In
the United States with the exception of
New York and Pennsylvania. His excel
lency fOrgets that Michigan has more

fOrgets that the shipping Industry Of our
