Suddenly Called.

How true, In the midst of life we
are in death. Lafayette Preston, one
of johnson County's best citizens, died
at his home near Ward city on the 10th
inst His death came as a surprise, as
he had only been complaining a short
time Mr., Preston was well known
among the river men. He was man of
most excellent character and was high
ly respected among all who knew him.
His word was equal to his bond He
was converted when a youth, and his
first wife, Miss Ellen wheeler, was con-
verified and they We're both baptized
about the same time. They were de
voted members of the United Baptist
Church, She was seized with that
dread disease consumption, and passed
on to her reward several years ago.
Mr.. Preston was remarked o Miss
Vanhoose To each wife were born sew
eral children, all Of whom, together
with the widow, are left to mourn for
the departed father and husband; but
they mourn not as one without hope.
The last time We had the pleasure to be
associated with him he talked of his
future state and assured us that he had
virtually given up the hustle of life,
and that the future life had become his
constant study Doubtless he felt him
self ripening for eternity and realized
that his sun of life would soon set. In
some way itseems that Gods servants
often are allowed to behold the coming
shadow, while the day and hour of
their departure is hidden yet they feel
that the time of their departure is near.
we feel that the widow has lost kind
husband and the children a most excel
lent father They all have our heart
felt sympathy in their hour of bereaye-
ment. j. F. HATTEN.

President Roosevelt, in his mes
sage to the second session OF the
Fifty-seventh Congress, treats a
large number of subjects. The
most important topics, the tariff
and the trusts, are not reviewed
with the emphasis which charac-
torized his first message. He in
vites Congress to enact further
statutes for the regulation OF trusts
and also to appropriate fund for
the enforcement OF existing stat
utes dealing with the combina-
tions. His own remedy of constI-
tutiOnal amendment he retires to
the position OF last report. After
enunciating his faith in protec-
tive tariff, he suggests two meth
DDS OF partial revision where any
particular case seems to demand ii
reciprocity treaties aud revision
by Congress acting on the finding
OF its own com mittees or a special
committee of economic experts. A
cautious REIMBURSEMENT OF financial
legislation, with view to produc-
ing a more elastic currency system
is advised, but no particular plan
is suggested, The administration
OF our colonial possessions is com
mended; likewise the work OF the
American army in the Philippines.
A reorganization of the army and
militia establishments is recon-
mended. A further increase in
the naval establishment, especial
ly in the matter of officers is asked.
