OBITUARY
OF the Late William Gowan.

William Gowan was born in county
Down, Ireland. January %, 1925.
At the age of Ii he came to Louis
vile, Kentucky, where, under the care
his mothers people he continued his
studies, took up the study of Medicine,
graduating from the Louisville Medi-
cal College in 1851. After visit of
some months with relatives in Canada
he came to Brockway where he located
and began the practice of Medicine
which he followed until 1883. In this
year he moved to Yale, gradually Civ
ing up the practice of medicine, took
up law, was admitted to the st. Clair
County Bar, and has successfully con-
tinued in that profession until his
death which occurred June 60 1896.
In 1853 he married Miss Hannah f.
Leonard native of Canada. Seven
children were the result of this union
DR.. Will H., Mrs. Isabelle Moore,
Mrs. Ella Herbert, of Yale, Alice Cow
an, of Bay City, Lillian May, who died
at the age of years and q months and
the second child born which died in
infancy.
The history of his illness dated back
a number of years since, receiving in
juries from fall which was not at the
time considered serious but which
slowly and surely undermined very
robust and vigorous constitution until
few weeks before his death alarming
symptoms led his friends to think the
end was near. The best medical skill
was summoned to his bedside, consul
tations of local physicians were held
but all to no purpose. All that skill
and loving hands could do was done to
make his last hours as comfortable as
possible. He passed peacefully away
surrounded by those he loved best.
The funeral services were conducted
at his late home Oh Thursday after
noon, July 2, and short sermon was
preached by Rev. Paul Desjardines
after which Brockway Lodge No. BIG,
+. Il a. NJ of which deceased was
charter member, took charge of the
body and inferred it with Masonic
hOnOrs in ElmwoOd cemetery. A very
large number of Masons, relatives and
friends were present to pay their last
sad respects to the departed.

BIKERS.
A Few Items That May Be of
Interest to Those Who
Ride Wheels.


Levi White is the happy possessor of
u new bicycle.
Nina Waring will soon join our corps
OF lady riders, having this week order
ed new Crown Queen.
May Drummond is visiting her rel
atiyes in Lynn and Brown City this
week, making the trip on her wheel.
Alex Mills and Mr.. Beach wheeled
over from Pontiac and spent the 4th
with their young friends in the village.
They also went to Port Sanilac on q
visit to Alec's parents before returning
home.
So far in our earthly pilgrimage we
have been able, through our natural
keenness of eye and quickness of foot,
to escape injury and mutillation from
collision with the bicycle scorcher and
equally dangerous new beginner. We
have, in the last few years, learned to
step, jump, skip, move laterally, back
wardly and upwardly the instant our
eagle eye gave notice of the deadly
proximity of the omnipresent bike.
While others have gone down and up
and had their anatomy scattered to the
four winds, we never have been touch
ed, so to speak. Now having demon
strated our ability to look out for the
bike, we haye concluded to take q
hand ourselves in training the public
in this great and glorious pastime of
lodging. We have consequently TAX
EN- unto ourself bicycle. We are
going into active training at ence and
hereby give notice to the public to
look out for a long, lean, plainly
dressed, benevolent looking man
astride brand new Heating bicycle.

Dated at Yale, Mich, July s, 1896.

At a meeting of the st. Clair County
Bar Association held at the Law Libra
rv in the City of Port Huron on July
lst, 1896, called for the purpose of
taking into consideration the death of
William GOwan, Esq, who was a men,
ber of such association, and after re-
marks made by several members q
resolution was adopted appointing
William Il. Mitchell, Herman w. Ste
vens, Charles S. Warn, Harvey Tappan
and Eugene f. Law as committee to
draft resolutions expressive of the
sense of this association.
The committee reported as follows,
which report was unanimously adopted:
The members Of the Bar Association
of st. Clair county learn with deep re-
gret of the death of William Gowan, of
Yale, who has for many years been q
resident of this county, practicing
attorney and Il member of this bar.
They mourn his loss as member of
the legal profession, and also as a wor-
thy citizen, who, through his own
efforts has won commendable repu-
tation. He came to Michigan when a
young man and located in the north
ern part of st. Clair county, and no
man was of wider acquaintance or
better known in that locality than Mr..
Gowan. He numbered among his ac-
qualntances n great many intimate and
sincere friends.
The members of this association ex-
tend to his family their sincere sympa-
thy in their bereavement, and
1t is Resolved, That a copy of this
of our sentiments be spread
at large upon the Journal of the Court
when in session; that u copy be trans
mitted to his family; and that the
secretary procure the publication of
the same in the Port Huron and Yale
papers. William Il. Mitchell.

Hanson and Levi B. CANTERBURY.
The platform is brief: 1t pledges sup
port to Bryan and Watson, congratu-
lates the country on the union of reform
forces, demands the strict enforcement of
laws already on the statute books, that
all public Offices be placed on a salary
basis, the election of railway and ware
house commissioners by the vote of the
people, endorses the Anderson bill and
demands the taxation of railway and
mineral lands, favors the principle of the
initiative and referendum, denounces the
Struck jury law, demands retrenchment in
public affairs, demands laws to secure
the prompt payment of wages of labor
ers, the establishment of state employ
ment agencies, the same protection for
miners and others in hazardous employ
ments now given to railway employees,
and the abolition of contract labor. 1t
denounces the gold standard and the in
tinidation of employees and pledges pro-
lection to all citizens in the free exercise
of the election franchise.

A. R. u. lien.

S. w. WEIGH and w. H. Clark, the
two train dispatchers who were dis
charged from the employ of the
Great Northern road because of
their implication in the Pullman
strike, were in town this week on
their way from the range to St. Paul.
These are the men for whom the
employees went out on a strike on
the Great Northern the second time
because Jim Hill would not rein
state them.
Although theirs was lost cause,
as MANY would have us believe,
these two gentlemen feel differ
emily. Their skies have not been
all sunshine by any means, since
their discharge, yet they feel no re-
gret and say they would do it again.
they feel hopeful for the future
and have all the courage of an A.
r. u. striker, the courage of man,
and not sneaks and towards. The
courage of one who knows he has
done his duty.

the capitalist code of law, and are
herita ge of all the people. The work.
ing class is growing rapidly in
numbers and it must become con-
ci0us of it's strength and solidarity.
The producers of wealth must be-
come the administrators of the ma
ton, and when once clothed with
political power their emancipation
follows The history of nations
iustifies them in their demands for
a higher civilization. The voice of;
labor begins to be heard. Let the
politicians take warning The:
w0rkingmen cannot much longer
be fooled by the soft words of the
hirelings Of the parasite class,
whether they be the lackeys of the
large capital, shouting for gold, or
the spokesman of the millionaire
silver-mine owners and the in
fatuated small middle class, shout
ing for silver. They will not much
longer take the chestnuts out Of
the fire for their exploiters.
This is the position of the Social
ist Labor Party. Going straight
forward to the goal, making no
trades or compromises, secure in
the consciousness that history is
our teacher and that we are only
the instrument through which the
historical mission of the working
class to free all mankind shall be
accomplished, we can afford to
laugh at the flimsy attacks, slurs
and misrepresentation, from what
ever source they come. Socialism
is invincible. Its growth and final
triumph inevitable.

Help the Garment Workers.

The garment workers OF st. Paul
are endeavoring to get the label
used by the factories in that city.
Union men and women throughout
the country should insist upon the
union label being on all goods pur-
chased. Buy nothing else. This
is the only way to compel the mer-
chant to keep in stock labelled
goods. The trades assemblies of
Duluth and Superior should take
up this matter and agitate for the
garment workers label. 1t means
much to. the working girls of St.
Paul, where factories are crowded
with OverwOrked women and child
rem. The sweat shops of the cities
are a terrible menace. The St. Paul
garment workers are making
noble effort to keep their organiza-
ton in existence, but international
President Miller of the BARRIERS
union, when here last week inform
ed us that unless some moral assis-
lance from outside cities was not
speedily given the girls who have
worked INCREASINGLY would have to
surrender their organization.
It is hoped immediate steps will
be taken by organized labor at the
head of the lakes to have commit
tee visit the merchants and see that
labelled goods in all lines are kept
in stock, and more important, that
none but union made goods. are
purchased by Union men and wo-
men and all sympathizers.
The trades assembly of St. Paul
has taken hold of the matter and
every factory visited and it is
thought some of them will be
unionized in very short time.

PopuIist State Convention.

Harmony characterized every action of
the Populist State Convention at Mime;
apolis Wednesday. The mischiefmakers
had been sat upon in the caucuses and
the county conventions, and the clashes
of opinion that occurred were contests of
friends who respected each other and
were characterized by no ebullitions of
jealousy and hate. The all dominating
sentiment was determination to bind
together all conflicting interests and fac
tons in determined struggle for the re-
establishment of just and popular princi-
pies of government.
In calling the convention to order,
Chairman Meighen declared that the
band of reformers before him was des-
tined to control the state. Nor was the
prospect one to frighten the business in
terests of the state. The only genuine
anarchists were to be found close to Wall
street.
For temporary officers the convention
accepted the recommendations of the
state central committee by e1ecting the
following: Senator P. NJ Ringdahl of
Polk county, temporary chairman; Spur
geon Ode1l of Lyon county, temporary
v,
assistant secretary; T. w. Murphy, St.
Louis county, reading clerk, and A. c.
Welsh, of Mcleod county, sergeant at
arms.
Able addresses were made by Chairman
Ringdah1, Jud Allen of Kansas, and
Francis Clark of St. Paul.
The proceedings of the convention were
marked by the utmost enthusiasm. The
Ames boomers had got it in the neck at
the primaries and Jared as badly as the
Sargent strikers in the populist primaries
last week in Duluth, and in the conven-
ton they were even 111eeker than their
brother conspirators at the head of the
lakes Likewise the long expected con-
test between Donnel1y and Owen failed
to materalize. The American citizen,
when he congregates in vast numbers,
always booms one of the component
parts of a bowling mob, but then, in
these days, he is good natured and de-
void of malice, and though the hall was
crowded to it's utmost capacity good
feeling and patriotic enthusiasm were al
ways the dominant sentiment:
The ticket nominated is as follows:
Governor, John Lind, of New Ul1n.
Lieutenant Governor, Major J. M.
Bowler, Renville.
Secretary of State, julius J. Henrichs.
State Treasurer, Alexander McKinnon.
Attorney General, John Arnold Reyes,
Duluth.
The electoral ticket was completed by
endorsing the nominees of the democrat
and free silver republicans and the addl-
ton of the following: Thomas: j. Neigh
en-, first district; Sylvester Keliher, fifth
district; H. P. Bjorge, seventh district;
James Dillon, at large.
The state central committee was made
up of the following gentlemen:
First District-T. J. Meighen, H. {.
Nelson and M. R. Dresbach.
Second District-E. Hoidale, w. 6.

Political Notes.

The Rear Lake county convention
endorsed equal suffrage.
The Gilmore Republican says
that Bob Noble, the sheep king OF
Idaho, is shouting for Bryan and
free silver.
At conference in Moscow on
Sunday last, at which were present
Senator Dubois, Judge Morgan, ex-
Congressman Sweet and several
Populists and Democrats, union
of forces was agreed upon to down
the Republicans.
1t has been ad United at Republican
headquarters in Washington that
all efforts of Mark Hanna to split
the Populists and prevent party
fusion on the lines Of free coinage
have failed. The forces in favor of
reconciliation Of silver are united
and differences will not count on
election day. The silver men are
increasingly confident of the result.
Senator Stewart sends word from
Yves. Virginia That tina! State will
give $4,000 ma ority for Bryan.

Deaths and Prostrations From Heat.

The people of the east have suf.
fered spell of the hottest weather
known in years. In many of the
large cities work had to be suspend
ed on account Of the intense heat,
and an APPALLING number Of fatalities
are reported to have occurred the
first part of the week from sun
stroke. Even horses had to sue
cumb to the intense heat, dropping
dead while in harness on the streets.
There were eighteen deaths and
thirty prostrations in Philadelphia
Sunday. In Baltimore there were
nineteen fatalities and over thirty
prostrations. Thirty cases of SUM-
stroke we're reported at Chicago the
same day, many Of them fatal. At
Brooklyn, N. Y, there we're nine
deaths from the heat and many
prostrations.
More persons died of heat in New
York, Philadelphia, Chicago and
other eastern cities on Monday than
the previous day. Hospitals we're
crowded. Forty-six deaths were
reported in New York city, over
twenty in Brooklyn and over forty
in nearby New Jersey towns.

The Beau Monde Wear Jewels On
Their Toes.


The latest fad among fashionable
women who possess more money
than brains is jeweled stockings.
Lily Langtry, who outrivals the
Queen Of Sheba in royal extrava-
gance, is the originator of. the new
device for spending money. When
the news came over the water that
the Jersey Lily was wearing dia-
monds on her toes, New York
women were seized with the vagary
of the English beauty and clam ore !
for ieweled insteps. Artisans and
and artists. whose wives wear stock
ings at a bit pair, are laboring
away, day after day, working pat
terms Of rich jewels in dainty fab
RIGS of silk, to ease the fair feet OF
the wives of money kings. A New
York jeweler says in the Dispatch:
1--WE have customer who is the
possessor of six gorgeous pairs OF
jeweled stockings. One pair Of
them are Of white silk studded with
emeralds and diamonds. They are
worth $4OO. Another pair is Of a
beautiful shade Of delicate pink,
with open work on the instep, ex-
tending some distance up the front,
and one embroidered with tiny seed
pearls. Another pair of these start
ling hose are Of an exquisite shade
of canary, embroidered with tur-
quoise and tiny diamonds

No More Whisky.

All but 6 of Kentucky's 800 dis.
tilleries closed their doors August
1st for the period of Is months,
and for that time not drop OF
whisky will be manufactured. AT
the expiration of the period of sus-
pension limited production will be
begun, but it will be at least 81
years thereafter before a drink OF
new Kentucky whisky will be put
on the market. The suspension of
the distilleries was brought about
by over-production, and the deter.
mined effort of the distillers to
create market for good whisky
and to reduce the amount in bond.

Texas Populists Won't Bolt Bryan.

A late special to the st. Louis Re-
public from Dallas, Texas, says /:
w. D. Gordon, Populist nominee
for Congress in the Fifth district,
in an interview vas asked: ;.
"What do you think of the plan
of the gold standard Democrats and
Republicans to support the Popu-
lists for State Offices in return for
Popelist electoral support for Nc
Kinley'?'
'It might be more interesting to
you to know what the rank and file
of the Populists think of it," he
replied. Friday l addressed a
crowd of 1900 at the Saddler en-
campment, and 1 put this question
TO vote. / said: Those of you
who are in favor of securing Re-
publican support for Kearby and
The State ticket by refusing to sup
port Bryan, or voting for Mckinley
electors, whether the Democrats
make any concessions on the vice
presidency or not, stand up. Not
q man in the crowd responded.
Then said: Those opposed stand
up, and every man in the crowd
rose to his feet and eheered Bryan.
After the speaking I talked with
a great many Populist Middle-of,
,he-Road men, and they declared
that if the Texas leaders bolted
Bryan they would bolt the leaders,
AT Farmersville on Saturday Mr..
Bailey and l met in joint debate.
The crowd was estimated at from
1000 to 5000. / made the same
test, and the Populists to q man
are for Bryan. They bitterly de-
nounce certain Populist delegates
10 the St. Louis convention, who
openly encourage a bolt of the
Bryan ticket for Mckinley. They
al! like Watson and dislike Sewall,
but they say the issue shall not be
aac fiiced on Sewall or Watson.
