Card of Thanks.

1 take this opportunity to tender
to the people of Camas Prairie and
the Court of Idaho county for the
high esteem in which they have
held my brother, and for the hear
ty expressions of sympathy and
coincidence extended to myself and
other of his relations. Never in my
life have | witnessed such love for,
and appreciation of a man in any
position as you have shown for him.
He has always been held by all his
people as family idol, and | assure
you that your kindness will ever
be held in sacred memory as one OF
the most hallowed recollections Of
a grateful relation.

left RhOdds' Funeral.

The funeral of Jeff Rhoads took !
place at Mt. Idaho last Saturday
forenoon in the presence of even a
larger concourse of people than had
assembled the previous day. The
scene at the grave was affecting
beyond description. Strong men
wept like children. and the frames
OF others shook with convulsive
sobs in the vain endeayor to repress
their grief. Little children sobbed
piteOusly as the coffin was lowered
to its last resting place, and even
strangers became affected by the
contagion of grief and turned away
their heads to hide their tears. It
is only in frontier community that
such funeral with such an uni
versal and undisguised sorrow can
lie witnessed. And it is only in a
frontier country that such men at
jeff Rhoads are developed. Scores
OF us could die tomorrow without
eliciting any public expression o
sorrow or regret; yet here was /;
man whose decease plunged an en-
tire community in grief and tears
We could for hours dwell lovingl
upon his memory and traits c
character, but 1t must suffice to sa
that with clean hands he faithful
administered all public trusts, an
that the Golden Rule" was hi
guide through life. If it is the lC
of humanity to live beyond tn
grave then we may rest assure
that our dead friend is alread
clothed in the garments of immo
tality, and that his good deeds @
earth are now bearing him the ha
vest of rich reward of happine
in the life eternal Farewell, o.
friend. Farewell, and farewell.

The COUnfU Seat Election.

1t is mistake to suppose that
Grangeville has lost the county
seat. Grangeville has not "lost"
anything. The people of Grange
vile had less at stake in the matter
than the citizens of any other pre-
cinct. The business men of Grange
vile, with their customary public
spirit, offered the taxpayers new
county buildings for old ones, if
they wanted their county seat here.
A very handsome majority of the
Taxpayers voted to accept the pro-
position, but owing to the harsh
requirments of an unjust and UNI
American law, the majority was
not majority and the will of the
people is temporarily defeated. The
citizens of Grangeville are not wor-
rying over the result. They put up
their money in good faith as a sim
pie, straightforward business en-
terprise calculated to help their
town. But they have not "lost'
any VhiiS. Iic toWu, tllc DuSllicSS
the people, the public spirit which
has built up the town without the
mid of syndicates, court houses OF
town boomers are still here, anG
will be found here doing business
at the same old stand for years after
envious and scheming detractor,
have shaken the soil of this prairie
from their feet forever. Where, il
all the United States, can you fine
another town the size of Grange
vile where $4,000 could be raised
by voluntary subscription on ;
similar proposition? We extent
our hearty appreciation and thank
to those citizens of the county who
in spite of the torrent ofanonymou
abuse, mystifcation, villification
and lying Misrepresentation, frau'
and deception let loose on election
day to maliciously mislead the pee
pie, advocated our cause and di
noble service at the polls. The vot
cast for Grangevillc in Mt, Idah
itself is the most complete vindi
cation we could ask of our endeavo
to remove the county seat.
