Death of Uncle johnny Powell.

Death has again claimed one of Crook
countys best and most honored citizens.
John Powell died at his home, half a
mile west of Prineville. Sunday night,
after an illness of only few days with
heart disease.
Mr. Powell was the eldest son of Rev.
Joab Powell, well known to all early
Oregonians, and was born in Clayborn
county, Tenn, July %, 1918. At the
age of eight years he moved to jackson
county, Mo-, where he resided until 1852,
when he immigrated to Oregon, settling
in Linn county. In the fall of 1870 he
moved to this county, locating upon the
place west of town which has been his
home until the present time. On March
Is, 1928 he was married to Miss Emily
York and the fruits of this union were
eight sons and three daughters, of whom
three sons and two daughters survive.
The funeral took place Tuesday fore
noon from the Union church, conducted
by Elder Holman assisted by Rev.
Deweese.
During all his life of nearly 73 years
Mr.. Powell had conducted himself SO as
to command the respect and love of all
who knew him, and we doubt if there is
one living today who can say that John
Powell ever did him wrong, or who
holds feeling of enmity towards the
dead. He had lived long and useful
life, but has gone hence to receive the
reward of the just and righteous.

Pertinent Inquiries from Wami
Philosopher.


WAMIC, Oregon, Morch 10, 1891.
EDITOR DALLEs CHRONICLE What is
the cause for taxes being twenty five
mill on the dollar in Wasco county this
last year, as there is a great deal of in
quiry throughout the farming COM
munity to know? What is the reason of
the people of Wasco county being taxed
so high these last few years? We cannot
see that the county court has been ex-
pending money on public improvements
in Wasco county, that would justify a
tax levy of twenty-five mills on the dollar
and at the same time juryman cannot,
without some trouble, dispose of his
county script at discount to get money
to pay for his board while attending
court as juryman.
Mr.. Editor, a great portion of the
farmers of this part of the county have
come to the conclusion that there should
be little more economy used in the ad-
ministration of county affairs and less
extravaganza amongst county officers
and fewer pets around the court house.
The old leaders may feel secure in their
position now in this county.
But if the signs of the times portend
anything the next election in Wasco
county there will be a political killing
among the old political parties, as it is
the only show to get relief.
Now Mr.. Editor do not belong to the
alliance, but you know that do belong
to an organization that is non-partisan
in politics but believes in political econ
omy in all branches of our government.

III a letter written us recently Mr..
John G. Williams, one Of the oldest
and most esteemed and frequently
honored citizens Of Sampson county,
says:
II hope to hear soon that my good
friends in and around Clinton are
putting up a cotton factory. They
are able to do so. The can get the
cotton at the door and it will build
up the town in trade and population.
Where the cotton planters sell their
cotton they will trade. The little
county Of Alamance has seventeen
factories and has to go to other
towns and counties for their cotton
and pay spectators prices and
freight before they can make any
thing Off Of their labors.'
