This aged Indy was a native of Anderson

Obituary.

Died, at his home near Edge Hill, Mo,
the Ali day of September, 1890, EDWARD
LATHIM, aged 60 years, of typhoid fever.
He was born in Washington county, Va,
on the 4th day of October, 1921, moved with
his father to Black River, when but boy,
where has lived ever since. He has been
professor of religion about forty years; was
married to Angelina Hillen on the 18th of
June, 1853. He had many good traits of
character and a, few faults as falls to the lot
of men. He has always had host of friends.
There was no lack of attention shown toward
him during his sickness, by family and
friends. His wife was most devoted, sat by
his bedside, both day and night for II days,
for such was the length Of his sickness. He
was perfectly reconciled to die, said from the
first that his time had come. DR.. Talbot,
with the assistance of his devoted, children
and many friends with sympathizing hearts
did all that was possible for him, but could
not arrest the terrible until its work was
done, and the strong man was brought down
to the grave, but not to sleep forever. "For
the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of
God, and they that hear shall live" He
leaves a wife and seven children, all OF
wnom are grown, 10 mourn MS loss. lney
have the sympathy of all who knew him in
their sad bereavement. Let us live so "a to
meet him on the other shore on that great
day.
"None knew him but to love him,
None hamed him but to praise"
"But you may break, you may crush the
vase as you will
The scent Of the roses will cling to it STILL"
Outlook please copy. A NIECE.

From (iOOdland.

Ed. Register-The rains having ceased,
most all farmers out here are busily engaged
sowing wheat or breaking the ground pre-
paratoIy to sowing. There will be an unus-
ually large average sowed.
The camp meeting at Lesterville has closed.
There were forty seven conversions during
the series of meeting, forty five of whom
joined the Baptist church. 1t is said that
not less than 800 people attended ere it
closed. The best talent in the State was
present, and the whole thing was ''grand
success" to use the words of those who at
tended.
The United Baptist Association will con-
vene at G oodland on the 10th proX- and will
continue for four days. No pains will be
spared to make the occasion grand success.
Died-Not long ago, at Edge Hill, Mo-, Of
typhoid fever, Mr.. Edward Latham.
In the Popular Educator, it is said that
the Wisconsin Supreme Court has decided
the case of Weiss against the Edgerton Dis
trict School Board regarding the reading Of
the Bible in the public schools. "Sone Of
the public school teacher. were in the abit
of reading the Bible to their pupils, and to
this some Catholic parents objected, pariic
ularlv because the Bible used was the King
James version. The case was tried in the
Circuit Court for Rock county, which over
ruled the demurrer of the Catholics to the
answer of the School Board. The action Of
the Circuit Court is now in turn Oyer-ruled
by the State Supreme Court, thus giving a
victory to the Catholics, and declaring that
the reading of the Bible in the public schools
is unconstitutional" What do you think of
that decision: Was it not a philosopher who
said, ''This world is governed by fraudo'
"Madam Rumor" says that wedding is
nearly on taps, but as l do not wish to be
too previous, nothing defnite will be said
till later.
Miss Mary Acorn, Goodwater, visited the
Goodand school not long ago. Come again,
Miss a.

ing series of letter from my friend L. S.
Adams, Fresno City, Gala. Mr. A. yet holds

Mr.. A. from our county, we are pleased TO
learn of his success.
Mr.. Wilson Crocker has sold his farm to
Mrs. Miller, the consideration being s., 100.
He has purchased farm IN Belleyiew for
which he paid $3.50.

We cordially endorse every word of
the following, taken from Mondays
Republic There must be some meth
cd of knocking out the boodlums who
have made the trou BILE in the Eighth
District, and the State Central Com
mittee must take the matter in hand.
The Democrats of the whole State are
concerned in the outcome, and Will
heartily second any action of the State
Committee looking toward retaining
a district that should have always
been represented by Democrat. Says
the Republic:
The authorized announcement by Hon.
John J. O'Neill in yesterdays Republic Is at
once manly and Democratic. No one ac-
quainted with the situation in the Eighth
District doubts that Mr.. O'Neill had an over
whelming majority of the votes cast ut last
weeks primaries, and that he was tricked
out of the nomination by frauds that ought
to consign the perpetrators to the rockpieS.
In spite of this, he declares himself willing,
if the State Committee thinks it will promote
party harmony, to submit his claims anew to
the voters and accept their verdict, fairly
rendered. This, as we have said, is manly
and Democratic, and if any obstacle is placed
in the way of new primaries and conven-
ton, the State Committee should simply
brush it aside.

According to a statement in tn

According to statement in the
Rochester (N. " Democrat, % Re-
publican Congressman were elected
two years ago with majorities less
than 1000. The Fourth District in
Connecticut gave but 26 majority; the
Fifteenth New York District gave "A;
the Fourth Maryland, 80; the Sixth
Ohio, So, and the Tenth Michig an, lis,
and so on up to 900. A change of
800 votes will reverse the % districts.
The great uprising of the people all
over the country will not only cut
down the small margin in the stated
districts, but add many more to the
Democratic column.
