JUBILANT MINERS.

They Are Now Sanguine OF Desired Con-
ssional Action.
There was a general feeling Of satisfac-
ton among mining men on the street and
around the hotels yesterday regarding the
favorable reception in Washington of the
suggestion TO impose tax upon hydraulic
mining
r. McMnrray said that he considered the
proposed tax of per cent upon the gross
output just The mining men could afford
10 pay it, and he thought they would be
perfectly willing that it should be imposed
The tax is something in The nature of q
license. and he considered II very fair az
raDgement.
Major Frank Mclaughlin expressed his
approval Of the proposed tax, the imposi-
ton of which would, he thought, be geneT-
ally approved. The arrangement was a
business one, ana, being based upon a per-
centage of the output, was perfectly
equitable.
Henry Martin thought this voluntary
proposition on the part of the miners would
lind layOr in the eyes Of the national legis-
lators, aud would settle the question regard
ing hydraulic mining by inducing favorable
Congressional action.
=. c. Carter believed that The proposed
tax was eminenty fair aud just, and that it
would give perfect satisfaction 10 farmers
aud miners alike. a percentage license
should satisfy all parties, and he believed it
would have this effect.
a number OF other well-known mining
men echoed these opinions, predicting that
desired legislative enaetments would
promptly result from the recommendation
that the tax imposition be made part of
Congressman CamiEetti's bill now before
the House

numerous calls on the police magistrate, tie

Death OF "uncse Joe" Erbsr..
Bowling, o., Nov. 1st, 1892.


ED. JOURNAL Joseph Egbert, who
died at his home near Bowling, Oct.
%, 1892, at T:30 a. M, notice of which
appeared In the JOURNAL. last week.
was born In Northumberland county,
Pa, July %, 1907, and was therefore
at the time OF his death IS years, 8
months and 3 days old. He with his
parents moved to Hancock county in
an early day, where they lived for
many years. In 1854 deceased came to
Wood county and purchased what was
then known as the Capels farm, where
he resided till the day OF his death,
having been resident OF Wood county
for the past 30 years. Uncle Joe as he
WAS familiarly known, was sick
but very little during his long life and
his last illness was OF short duration
and to all appearances void Of pain.
The funeral services were held Mt
the M. L. church or the 9th, Rev. ].
G. Shaw of Perrysburg officiating after
which large concourse Of people fol-
lowed the remains to old Bellville
Ridge cemetery whore they were de
posted by the side OF his beloved wife
who preceded him to the grave some
three years.
Uncle Joe Egbert will be greatly
missed from this neighborhood rs he
had made hosts OF friends during his
long residence here. AS had occasion
to say in II former communication to
the JOURNAL after Mr.. Egbert's birth
day anniversary last July, he was a
remarkable man as 1t is certainly a
very remarkable thing for man to
live in this world for moro than IS
years without having had at
least one quarrel with one or more Of
his neighbors, but let it be said OF
uncle Joe Egbert that he steered clear
of all conflicts with his neighbors. All
men were the same to him-the beggar
on the street was recognized by him
the same as the man with his theus-
ands. Your correspondent has been
intimately acquainted with deceased
for forty years, and during all that
time have never known him to turn
any one away from his door. What
was his was his neighbors and all mau-
kind were his neighbors. In religion
he was orthodox. For many years
prior to his coming to Wood county, he
belonged to the NJ. E. church but did
not identify himself with any branch Of
the Christian church after coming here
until about three years ago he again
united with the NJ. church and was
a consistent member Of said church at
the time of his demise. In politics
he was Democrat OF the jackson
type, having voted for every Demo-
cratic President from jackson TO Cleve-
land with one exception. he said he
could not consistently support Greedy,
so he voted for Grant.
Mr.. Egbert was the father OF eight
children, six OF whom are living, all
being present at the funeral except the
eldest, Henry, who resides at Nelson's
Point. Plumas county, California, hav-
ing went there in 1890 during the gold
excitement. And thus ends a long and
useful life and the end was calm, and
sweet and peaceful. ~
We the undersigned take this method
TO return our heartfelt thanks to all
who so kindly assisted in the last sick
ness and death of our beloved father,
Joseph Egbert.
