A Victim of Heart Disease.

J. q. Zachary, formerly Of Fossil, but
for the last two years Of Oakland, Doug
las county, died suddenly Of heart dis
ease, Friday evening. 1t seems that he
had gone out into his pasture to catch
horse, and when he did not return,
search resulted in the finding OF his dead
body. He was subject to heart disease
and 1t is presumed that the exertion Of
running after the horse brought on a
fatal attack Mr.. Zachary was an old
resident Of Oregon, and leaves widow
and grown up family to mourn his death.
The deceased was born in Hemster
county, Arkansas, March %, 1925. He
moved with his parents to Washington
county, Or, in 1S4S where his mother
is still living, at the age OF 81 years. Mr..
Zachary has been constant resident of
this state since his arrival in lS43. In
1851 he was married to Miss Theresa +.
Brown, who crossed the plains in 1s45
| The result OF this union was u children,
| four girls and eight bows. nine of whom
are still living. In 1857 Mr.. Zachary
| united himself with the Methodist
church, of which he has been an active
member up to the time OF his death.
| He passed through two Indian wars.

II Governor Lord will call an extra
session of the legislation his action will
be approved and applauded by all the
taxpayers of the state. 1t will cost
something, say $1,000 per day, and as the
constitutional limit Of special session is
20 days, the total expense will not be
more than $4,000. This is a large sum,
bnt it is not material when it is COM
pared with the immense saving that can
be effected If the legislators are sincere
/ in their desire to repeal laws that call
for needless appropriations, and reduc-
tion OF salaries, which are outrageously
exorbitant. The state can be run for

So much ice was running in the riysr
last week that the ferry boat could not
cross for several days.

Charles Shurte went to Portland on
business the first of the week. His
cousin, Miss Ethel Shurte, lately from
Michigan, accompanied him that far on
her way to California, where she will
visit friends until spring.
1t makes the taxpayers shudder to
think Of the high tax levy for this year,
aggregating 2l mills, besides the never
failing special school taxes. We had
hoped the levy would not be higher than
that of last year, when the state levy
was only 8 mills. county mills, and
school 4 mills. But the county levy this
year is placed at 1920 mills and the
state at as mills, all Of which makes
ms wonder why in thunder the county
can not be run more economically.

Where the Money Goes.

Eds. Record Union: My attention

the money goes. I see you have writ
ten various articles on the same or like
subject. regret much I have not had
an opportunity Of reading each of them.

years ago, and my taxes was $40
greater last year than the year before
Just one of the four who last repre-
sented this county was on the assess
ment roll. At that rate one in four who
voted away our taxes was on the roll
and I presume those employees who re-
ceived it paid less. l am informed that
Lyon and Ryan are the only parties
elected to office in this county at the
last election on the assessment roll
when elected At the same and all
other times a bowling mob blat day
and night that the rights of the few
are disregarded. Of all the school teach
ers who draw down large sums of taxes
few pay any in return. If you have not
come to this city and county yet, I
hope you will in due time. The Mayor
who is furnished with a clerk and at
torney, draws down $1,000, as much as
the Attorney General of the State. Stay

Fer. Fair PLAY.

Eds Record Union: Tt having
been given out that the Mayor will nom
mate Road Engineer H. z. Fairman to
be Street superintendent, several as
saults have been made upon that gen
tleman to which his friends have fmpor-
tuned him to reply, but which he de-
clines TO do on grounds that commend
Kim We have, therefore deemed it a
duty to truth and fair play to ask you
to give US space in the Record Union"
TO say. some words in Mr. Fairman's and
Sacramento's interests in reply to the
charges that he is a stranger, that he is
unknown, that he is not a taxpayer,
that he is only" a road engineer and
that something else is needed, and that
he was lobbyist in the last Legislature
for the rock crushing bill. These are
ali the charges of which we can learn.
The facts are as follows, and you have
our names as guarantee for cur good
faith and the truth of the following
words. H E. Fairman has been nearly
nine years citizen of California. He
was drawn hither by the call of his pro-
fession. He is a native of Michigan and
unmarried. He is q poor man just now
in dollars, because he has no worldly
goods but is rich in information, knowl-
edge and practice of his profession. He
would not be more fit if he had thou
sands of dollars. He has been resi-
dent of Sacramento some two years and
more, and has studied our street cOndi-
tions and needs more thoroughly than
any resident, and knows more of them
to-day than the Oldest resident He
was not a lobbyist in the last Legisla-
ture, but being the author of the idea of
crushing rock with idle labor at Fol-
som, and prior to that of citizens or
The record-union., 1896-01-13

ganization to crush trap-rock for
streets and roads to which he procured
$S,0 900 to be subscribed, he was by lead
ing citizens solicited to accept the offer
of the joint Road Commission of the
last Legislature to serve as it's consult
ing engineer, which he did, and he
served most faithfully and steadily
without receiving one dollar of reward
from the Legislature. We understand
his purpose in all this has been to con-
serve the good-road agitation, that he
and other road engineers may have en-
ployment of the most lucrative order
His success in convincing the last Leg
islature of the wisdom of the rock and
highway bureau schemes ought to be
sufficient evidence of his ability as a
reasoning man.
A road engineer must know the prin-
ciples of surface and underground
drainage. 1t is a part of his business.
No man trained as a road engineer can
be ignorant of sewerage science, nor of
embankment and levee work. the re-
sistant powers of earth, strength of ma
terials, the matter of grades, flow of
water, etc., etc.
He is not an old resident That is
true. But is that cry never to cease F?
Are we forever to remain in the back
ground under such pleading? Did
Southern California progress by such a
system? Are we never to invite new
blood into the community? We have
elected a gentleman a Trustee who was
not an old resident, not longer a resi-
dent than Mr.. Fairman possibly; but is
he less fit or able by reason of that fact
to serve as Trustee?
AS to Mr.. Fairman's ability and fit
ness we refer to men who have had
such communion with him as to know,
such as c. A. Luhrs, D. A. Lindley, H J..
Norton, A. A. Van voorhies, Frank Mil
Ter, J. L. Maude, r. c. Irvine, W. D.
Lawton, H. Weinstock and many
| others. In conclusion, let US say that
Mr.. Fairman was nominated to the Ma
yor by a committee of the Sacramento
cyclists elected for the purpose. consist
ing of Frank Miller, J. A. Woodson, H.
Weinstock, H. Bennett, with ]. L.
Maude of the State Bureau of High
ways by invitation. We submit that in
this matter Mr.. Fairman's candidacy is
entitled to fair treatment, and that the
arguments advanced against him are
not decent or creditable.

THE SEARSEss OF PASTOR TO PEOPLE.

One Of the most healthful and heartening
features OF the new adjustment OF theology
to life is the closer approach. in many ways
of the modern pastor to his people. That
there is new and refreshing freedom and
cordiality of relation between pastor and
parish, none, we think, can deny. That,
old superhuman sacredness. and consequent
aloofness, of the minister, typifled and
increased by his very dress and
bearing. has become pretty much
a thing Of the past in Protestant churches.
Today the miuisSar is more man among
men. He has ."pped the .priestly garb and
manner, and moves and mingles with the
world at the level Of its own best and truest
life. Without resighng any moral fibre or
essential dignity he comes closer to h:man-
ity than ever before. because he no longer
stands upon his little ecclesiastical platform,
but walks side by side with men, touches
them at elbow and shoulder, and faces them
with level eyes.
1t is not so easy as it used to 'be to pick
out minister. in crowd. by his garb and
manner. Even when you draw him into
conversation he is not likely to disclose his
profession unless pressed to the point. And
all this is not because he has grown more
worldly. but because his mind and his heart
have broadened since the days of Dominic
Dryasdust and the Rev. Mr.. SANITY. He
has had his higher education In the human
tiles rs well as in the divinities. He can
sympathize with you, he can instruct you,
he can influence you at more points than
his purely ecclesiastical predecessor. And
so it comes about that he gets closer to you
as pastor; you feel less restraint in his
presence; your heart goes out to him as a
man, after all. Of common feelings, tastes,
desires. temptations. with yourself. Only,if
be be true man and true pastor, you
must always feel that his consecretion stands
him in adequate stead of the old priestly
dignity and moral and spiritual sequestra-
tion.
We believe that the church is bound to
benefit greatly by the radical change in its
type of ministers. The days Of the virtue Of
the long, black coat and the long. sancti To-
nious face are, happily. past. Nowadays the
minister who looks like a business manor
a bicycler. for that matter. in his knicker-
bockers and soft cap-and who talks and
acts as if he loved nature and humanity as
we'll rs God, is not at discount. Maybe is at
a premium in the exchange of soul with
soul. He can win sympathy. trust, allie
glance, where the old-style minister would
get no nearer to the people than the pulpit
i5 to the street.
