HE CITIZEN, with unfeigned
sorrow, chronicles the death of Mr.
Roscoe f. Dunaway, of White Stone
lie was man of good heart and nc
desire to lnjure his neighbor. AS is
said In many cases, he was his own
worst enemy. But for his most uu.
fortunate malady he would have
risen to positions of prominence and
trust in the county, but failing,
which many are addicted to, not only
deprived him of these prizes but at
last brought death in its saddest
form. For some years he had been
secretary of the school board of this
District and justice of the peace,
both Of which offices shared IN the
misfortune that his allment always
brings to the proper discharge of
duty. To his estimable but heart
broken mother, brother and sister the
deepest sympathy of the community
goes out.
The county school board-compos-
ed of Judge Ewell, Superintendent
Lewis and Attorney Downing, will,
have to elect a successor TO Mr..
Dunaway on the board for this
District, and they now have an oppor-
tunity to show that they have more
than political interest in the we'll
fare of our public schools by elect
ing worthy and capable man from
some portion of the district not at
present represented on the board.

The death last week of Arthur
Sewall removed great and good
man and sterling Democrat, whose
chief misfortune lay in the fact
that he came from state where
Democracy is at discount, and con-
sequently, her shining lights are
simply permitted to flicker, and then
die out. Four years ago the
National Democratic party did two
very unusual things-nominated for
first place on the Presidential ticket
man who had never been mentioned
up to the hour of his nomination; the
other was in naming as his running
mate man from the most hopeless
of hopeless states. Arthur SewalI
was the second man on the Demo
cratic ticket, and, though above re-
proach, he sank with the ticket and
has hardly been remembered since.

ENGLAND AND THE BOEss.

President Kruger has escaped to
Lorenzo Marquee, the Portuguese city
on the east coast of Africa. He will
probably sail for a foreign country if
the Portuguese government does not
surrender him 10 the British.
DeWet SAID, when the adyisabiity
OF his surrender and the ending of
the war, was under discussion: "My
farm has been destroyed, my home
burned, any my property looted. My
sons have been killed in battle, and
my wife died of a broken heart, but
| shall not surrender. | shall resist
to the end. The war shall not
cease"

MR.. STUBBs, the Republican can
didate for Congress, though ac-
counted good and honest man, will
find that candidate of his party in
this District will have "hard row
to hoe." The people have lost con-
tidence in his party, which is most
unfortunate in this particular section
in having dearth of able exponen is
of its tenets. On the other hand the
Democratic pasture is full to over
flowing with thoroughbreds.
