THE following tribute to the MEM
DRY Of an excellent young lady is
given place at this late date in recog-
milton OF her rare worth, and in re-
spoIlse TO the request VI her many
frisuds at Llndeu.-EDToR.
Lima Vivian was born at Linden
May 22d, 1871, and died in the same
village ut sunset of Friday, Dec. 18th,
1896. Her sickness had covered a
period OF more than two years, dur
ing which time the best medical aid
was summoned and all that loving
hands could do was done. But des-
pte these and her brave struggle
for life, cruel death has conquered.
The writer has personally known
her since early childhood. We have
played together on the old school
ground; recited together the same
lessons; together shared the joys
and trials of school life. She was al
ways of a Kind and gentle disposition,
especially remarkable when shown
prominently in school life. 1t seems
too true that death seeks first those
whom we love best. For many weary
weeks "the boatman pale has been
in waiting to row her DER the dark
stream, while she fingered on this
nearer shore, until she finally EN-
barked, saying mot my will, Q Lord,
but thine be done"
Deceased graduated from the Lin
den high school with the class of 80.
Her essay, "Cheerfulness,n plainly
showed that the writer was imbued
with that trait. The loss is of course
most keenly felt by her father, Mr..
John Vivian, her brothers, George
and James, and her sisters, Mrs. Mer-
rifleld and Miss Ada.
The funeral was on Tuesday, Dec.
22d, at o'clock, with services con-
Quoted by Rev. Cook, in the III. +
church which was beautifully draped
with white muslin, ivey and rose
buds. The fair form was laid TO rest
in the family lot in the Linden GEM
etery, her somber grave made redo
lent with beautiful flowers by loving
relatives and friends. Pail bearers
were chosen from among her school,
mates and intimate friends, and con-
sisted or: Henry Hicks, Levi Pollard,
While Smith, Eddie Jones, Harley
Mills aad Eddie Brewer.

Miss Lima Vivian died at the home
OF her father Friday evening, Dec.
18th, aged % years. She has been
failing gradually for two years, from
consumption, and yet her death
comes as crushing blow upon the
community, il which she was a
special favorite, darkening the holt
day Joys with shadow of mourning.
The funeral on Tuesday was largely
attended, and impressively sad.

as he had not injured il in any way.
Charley Short has been having an
other severe spell OF illness. He has
a chronic liver trouble, and every
few weeks there seems to come "A
crisis. He is relatively much better
than he was three or four days ego.

AN APOLOGY.

The Aberdeen HERALD is ten years

OF its young life It has labored Tor the
best interests OF its constituency. We
presume the HERALD reconciles this state.

interests OF its constituents are regulated

William Stewart and w J. Bryan. Else
how could the interests ofits constituents

Tor several wears. and an extreme popu.
list newspaper al the present time? We
have some curiosity TO know what the
interests OF the HEEALD's constituents
will be when the editor is again free TO
express his honest opinions, and what il
will work for after the people Of this en-.
li:htened country have ground free silver.

their views but fools never. We make
no pretensions to more OF wisdom than

the extent OF our sin. May God forgive
Us for the doubt. From acqu. intance
with the editor OF the Nugse, We believe
this is his stumbling block, and he, too.

IGNORANCE or PREvARICATION?

The statements made by the Mckinley
newspapers in this campaign are aston
ishing for the amount OF ignorance, OF the
wiliul lying, they display. The Hoquam
Washingtonian. in an attempt 10 de.
molish a straw man oi It's own making,
SAYS:
Under the Wilson bill this govern
ment pays nearly sl20 900, go to foreign
laborers. more than under the Mckinley
bill. This means that our American
iaborers were cheated out OF 1920, 900 600
which rightly belonged to them. We are
firmly of the opinion that free trade will
hur. the laborers and business OF this
country more than free silver and il the
Chicago platform had demanded high
protective tariff the election OF Bryan
would have been very probable.
Ii this statement means anything il
means tina. our imports are greater under
the Wilson bill than under the Mckinley
bill. We have heretofore had occasion
TO reiute this statement, but like the
father OF lies il will not down. The
statistics ci the United states treasury
give the imports for the four years OF The
