In Memoriam.

WHEREAs-lt has pleased the Infinite,
Divine Power to remove from this life
our friend, Edwin j. Ogilvie, and where
as, the people of this community de-
sire to show somewhat of the love and
esteem they held for him in life and
yet hold for him dead, therefore. be it
RESoLVED-That the ability with
which he did all his work, his nobility
of character and the conscientiousness
with which he performed all his duties
bs held in grateful remembrance.
REsoLvED-That the sudden removal
of such life from our midst leaves
vacancy and shadow deeply realized
by all who once called him friend, and
is serious loss to the living who have
need of integrity and true worth.
REsoLvED-That in deep sympathy
with those near aud dear friends who
mourn their great loss, we mingle our
regret and our tears, and hope with
them to one day find that all things
have been done for the best, even
though we travel the dark, thorny path
and lose those to whom our hearts
cling with love that can never die.
REsOLvED--That we forward copy
of these resolutions to our local paper
for printing and another to the be-
reaved family. only asking that they
shall remember that far away on the
desert their brother met firm friends
and true, who regret they now have
nothing but empty words to cast over
the ocean of death to their friend who
has crossed to the other side.

Secretary Wilson's visit TO the Pacific
coast WIN be Of great benefit II II stin-
uiates 10 more rapid progress the pres
ent tendencies toward more scientific
and diversified farming. and IL It ac-
quaints the secretary with the vast ex-
tent Of Western resources and the pecu-
10 their development.
Little complaint has ever been enter
ed from the West Of neglect or mis-
treatment by the agricultural depart
ment, nor has the department ever man
Hestsd any lack OF appreciation Of
Western possibilities and Western prob
lens. but there has never been . very
close afssiiation between the department
and the farmers. The hortfcuiturists
and agricniturists OF this section OF the
world appear to have had their own
salvation TO work out ana to have been
entirely willing TO do %. The depart
ment has not bean much called upon
Judging from the interviews which he
has accorded to the press. Secretary
Wilson now proposes to make himself
acquainted personally as well as pro-
fessionaiiy with the farmers, ascertain
the spirit that animates them In their
daily work and progress. and thus put
himself In position to respond to their
preferences and to care for their reeds
Such a course evidences a most excel
ieat liberaiity and sincerity. and ought
to be met BY the farmers In a cordial
and practical manner Possibly the
secretary will allow himself to be In
duced to examine with some degree OF
care the actual physical conditions d
the various sections Of the several
Of the communities. and to extssd his
visit over a considerable period of time
To this end the agricultural districts
should be alert to receive and entertain
him.
The several leading points which Sec
reta-y Wilson emphasized In his inter-
view at Spokane on Friday are indis-
putably among the most important that
could be brought before the attention OF
Western people. Dairying. sugar beet
grow ing. scientific and diversified farm
ing. breeding of horses. cultivation of
grazing grasses and irrigation, are al
ready we'll In the mind Of the average
farmer. but the wide range % familiar
ity with the subjects which the secre-
tary enjoys must OF necessity be OF
great advantage In directing farmers 90
news methods and new aims.
The West Is particularly lacking In
diversified farming Circumstances Of
pioneer days have rendered specializing
upon a large scale the more profitable.
but as communities grow older special
ixing becomes more impractical. II the
secretary can impart new impetus IN
this direction he will do the Coast
states much good.
Fer some reason or other the agricul-
tural department has never fallen IN
der the censure OF criticism of general
partisan politics. II appears TO be the
one strictly business and scientific
branch OF the Federal administration
For these reasons the visit Of Secretary
Wilson appeals 10 all classes and as
ss,res the DISTINGUISHED nssfefat a ,nast
cordial reception.
