OBITUARY.

Who reckoned by the setting sun,
Not finished days, but days begun
flushed days begun with starrei repose.
Wise it would be that mode to keep,
To say that death. like sunset brings
A sourcee and not an end to things
A new day opening with sleep.

a long and severe illness she was call
ed by Jesus, God of peace, to enter
into the joys of heaven and perfect
rest, which she had SO long desired.
During her illness she was baptized
in the Catholic Faith by Father Pow
ers. She had implicit trust in Gods
Mercy and the greatest faith in pray
er even to the last. moment of life.
She often expressed her willingness
to go when her Savior called ana lie
indeed found her prepared. Her de-
parture from this world was as one
gently falling asleep. Although it
was hard to part with her, we know
she is happy in that bright world OF
eternal day.
And you shall shortly know that length
en- ed breath
Is not the sweetest gift God sends His
friends;
And that, sometime, the sable pail of
death
Conceals the fairest boom His love can
send.

Johns Catholic Church at 10 O'Clock

officiating. Interment in Oak Grave

POST OFFICE CHANGES.

The Democratic post masters
are retiring and Republicans taking
their places. This is the American
plan of rotation in Office, the party
succeeding at the polls, responsible
for the administration of the Govern
ment, haveing properly the right to
entrust the officers to those who help
ed win the victory. We filled every
post Office in the county with dem
ocrat except at Nancy, and the gall
ant radical old republican leader in
Salt Creek, Uncle Bill Kennedy, was
allowed to remain, only because we
couldn't find democrat to take the
Office. Our post masters we're given
the officers because they were honest
capable men and Democrats. They
are retired from Office nov, for the
good and sufficient reason that they
are still democrats. The officers, as
far as we know, have been conduct
ed to the requirements of the govern
ment, and to the satisfaction of the
patrons. We hope on retiring, they
will lend every required assistance
to their successors, in helping the
new men to learn the business and
continue the service up to the high
standard it was attained in Hooking
Mr.. L. d Vickers willtake charge
of the Logan Office on the 1st. of July
the beginning of the quarter and the
fiscal year. He has selected Mr..
Will Larimer, a gallant soldier,
capable business man and popular
Republican as his deputy, and Meta
Groves, his neice, and one of the
most accomplished and popular
young ladies of our city, as assistant.
They are in the office now familariz-
ing themselves with the work, and
are giving evidence of rendering
accurate, prompt and pleasant
service TO the patrons. The good
people of the town, all who are In
terested in our public affairs, should
render ever possible help aud en-
couragement, to the new post mast
er and we bespeak for him the like
indulgence and kindness from our
Democratic friends and the public
generally as has been extended to
his predecessor.
