He was born in this town May 4, 1884,
the son Of Stillman and Larina Ford
Mouiton.
In 1850 he married Miss Ann Chadwick,
who survives him, with one daughter,
Mrs. BENZ min c. Briggs OF Hartford, and
a son, William, who has been at home
about two weeks from his duties as Pull
man car conductor between Boston and
binghampton, n. Y.
Sept. IL, 1862, Mr.. Moulton enlisted as
corporal In Co. Q, is regiment, Vermont
volunteers, which was a part of Gen.
STANDARDS famous brigade. He was
mustered out Aug. IL, 1858, at the expira-
ton OF bis term OF service. He was
loyal member OF U. 8. Grant post OF this
place for years, being one OF the charter
members.
With the exception OF a few years spent
in Brookheld Mr.. Moulton was always a
resident OF this town and had lived for
years on the large farm about two miles
from this village which he sold last week
to III. Y. Wemple OF New York.
He was very genial and popular citizen
and remarkably capable and successful
farmer. He kept large herd OF the best

flesh rendered 1t impossible for him to
perform manual labor he proved himself
an excellent manager.

forced to give up active labor over % years
ago.
Some time since be had attained the

to reduce his avoirdupois.
Although rendered nearly helpless by
the burdensome surplus OF flesh. he was
ever good -natured and jolly and joined in
many hearty laughs over badinage di-
rected at his own clumsiness.

PROSPEROUS TOWNS.

The late census returns gives Bedford,
the county seat of Taylor county, pop
ulation of ], ,977. In 1890 the place had
l ,643, and in 1895 900. OF course Bed.
ford people are disappointed, having
claimed greater population. There
is perhaps general disappointment in
the reported populations of Creston,
Clarinda, Shenandoah, Leon, Osceola,
Mt. Ayr and almost all the Iowa towns.
There need not be. These towns have
but few manufacturing interests, which
induce people to move to them, and
fol any town or city to have more peo.
pie than work, is great injury to all
concerned. If they desire to grow they
must provide work for the people. If
not, they will 60 elsewhere. 1t is
question of work and wages and living
and starving. Many Of the people Of
all these towns are sympathetically
helping to kill them. by sending away
for goods and spending money abroad.
Let such method of doing business be-
come common among the people of q
town and surrounding country and
soon it will decline and eventually per.
ish. 1t does not patronize itself, but
strangers, and soon '..a dead town" tells
the story. "You tickle me and I will
tickle you" is a good business motto,
and those who do not observe it deserve
to fail. Mutual reciprocity is the secret
Of successful country and town prosperi-
ty. Those therefore, who are sending
to Chicago, Des Moines. st. Joseph and
other places for goods, are efectually
laboring to kill their towns. Sap the
business life Of your towns and you
destroy them. In conclusion, these
towns have as many people as they de-
serve to have. Let them become more
Independent and self productive and
they will have more people and better
towns. We have an instance in mind
now. A manufacturing plant went to
. certain town and took to it six fami.
lies. all Of them good people. The town
withheld encouragement and patronage.
The riant became q usted and picked
lup and moved to another place where
bit enjoys great prosperity. The trouble
is not Id our stars, butlin ourselves. A
little close tisted town will never have
good business, good residences, good
churches and good schools. 1t does
not appreciate them and really does not
want them. There is nothing which
pays community better than, in every
way possible, to encourage all its en-.
terprises, both secular and religious

Trusts have been heretofore strong
enough to fasten themselves on the peo-
pie without aid from the government,
says the New Orleans Picayune. Allthey
haye asked was to be let alone. Now
the ship trusts wants to be supported
out Of the taxpayers pockets. That is
that most audacious scheme of all. This
subsidy grab has been on hand for three
years, and has heretofore been defeated
in all it's attempts to fasten itself on the
people. Now however, it seems to have
prospects of success and its powerful
promoters will doubtless use pressure
enough to defeat other appropriations,
unless they can get what they want.
