cal efforts Of Mr.. Ambrose, but
since politics make strange bed
fellows, it began to look as though
he and Mr.. Ambrose would, for
once, be together in the coming
political issue, therefore, he too
has reasons to regret the death
Of the gentleman, though those
reasons may appear selfish.
No class Of men in the COM
munity will have more reasons to
regret the death Of brother than
the Fraternal Order Of Eagles in
the death Of A. T. Ambrose, one OF
the few charter members of the
organization. He has been con-
spicuous in their ranks ever since
it has been in existence, not only
as worker, but as an officer and
an organizer as we'll. The second
annual conclave Of that order is
being held in Vancouver at this
time and the many regrets for the
death of so distinguished brother
has been repeatedly heard.
Rev. Llwyd's funeral grafton
over Mr.. Ambrose at the First
Methodist Episcopal church last
Saturday afternoon in the pres
ence Of the K. of p, the Eagles
and the many friends of the
deceased. was very impressive
one and many there were present
that dropped a tear of regret that
young life had been SO suddenly
blown out by Him who doeth all
things we'll, and added, it was He
that gave it and it was He that
had taken it, and, so promote it be.
Hon. Edward B. Palmer and
wife mourn the death of their
little son, who SO recently came to
make their home doubly happy.
For the first born Of new home
to be taken but a few days after it
has come, especially when such
high hopes has been planned upon
by the fond parents for the young
one, is a sorrow that no one, save
those parents who have gone
through with such an ordeal, can
fully realize and understand.
Though with them but a few days
its memory will linger about and
cling to them for months, years
aad years, even until, old age. To
them it will always seem that
there is one missing link. "Those
whom the Lord loveth he chas-
teneth,'' and in the cup of the
bitterest and most intent sorrow
there is always a drop Of sweetness
at the bottom.
The Pie-maker is unable to say
where d. x. Larimer is getting the
political stuff he is turning into
the Times, but it begins to look as
though he was drawing heavily on
his vivid imaginations for it. One
line of truth and whole column
of untrnth seems to be abont the
proportion of the political signif-
canoe the articles bear. Political
Editor Larimer sees that his own
party is split all to smithereens
and he is working with might and
main to have the Republicans get
in a similar fix, but he will not
succeed and you can bet your last
dollar on that, Dave.

Ex-Governor John ELI. McGraw
will soon sail for Nome. He will
be badly missed among the politi
clans. 81 am for Frink for COVER
nor" said he one day this week.
Lee Harris star has set and J.
W. Godwin's has risen. This was
the work of the Democratic state
convention last Saturday at Spo-
kane. 1t was crushing defeat to
Lee Hart and his followers and
one that they did not expect for a
single minute until it came.
Governor Rogers shared in Harris
defeat in this instance, for it
clearly shows that the ambitions
of the governor to succeed himself
as governor of this state will not
