FATHER AND DAUGHTER.
Died on the Same day-Buried Togeth-
er at Independence-A Tragedy
Recalled.

Robert L. Feag1es we'll known
Benton County, died in Indepen
ence on Saturday of heart failu
A strange and sad coincidence
connected with his death.
daughter Clara who a few We
ago married a Mr., White and w
resided in Portland died the sa
day; the daughter dying at 7 o'clo
in the morning and the father at 1
o'clock in the afternoon. The age
of Mr.. Feagleswasos and hat of his
daughter 26. Her body was brou-
ght to independence and double
funeral was held there conducted
by DR.. Thompson The burial oc.
Cured Monday afternoon at the
Odd Fellows cemetery of that
place.
Mr.. Feag1es came to Benton
County from California in 1868.
and for long time resided in the
Big Elk country. There he was
married to Miss Lil1ard daughter
of the late Morgan Lillard. The
wife died many years ago, leaving
three children, Clara, Florence and
John. Florence is now the wife of
a man named Weatherford and re-
sides in Portland. John Feagles is
employed on. the farm of Joseph
Smith in the north end of Benton.
Mr.. Feagles spent last winter in
Corvallis, and during the summer
was out prospecting. Many years
ago he discovered cinnabar ledge
in the Cascades. and since the me.
tai became more valuable Mr. Fea-
giles has spent much time in a
search for the lost ledge. The hope
of finding it and the wealth that he
expected to result was the fond
dream of his declining years.
During the hop season he was a
picker at the Independence yards,
and after that was at the home of
Joseph Smith. Two or three weeks
ago he went to Independence, where
death overlook him. He was born
in Ohio, in 1885, and emigrated
from that state to California in 1857
His death recalls Benton county
tragedy. in which Morgan Lillard.
the father-in law met death at the
hands of Mr. Feag1es, The trouble
occurred in the Big Elk country,
and was over the question of where
a certain county road should pass.
Both principals resorted to firearms
and jury found that Mr.. Feagles
acted in self defense.

The question. of the purity Of the
water in the Santa Clara creek is
every day becoming more generally
agitated. The unprecedented list
of deaths and the widespread con-
ditions of sickness at the Clara dur
ing the last summer, make the situa.
ton one Of serious mien. Last week
a couple of practical chemists from
New York City passing through
this district stopped over in St.
George. They had visited the Clara
creek and Shem and had noted how
the Stag from the smelter is carried
into the stream, AS they passed
down the creek Ct is related) they
refused to taste the water and would
not even permit their animals to
drink. The specialists affirm the
water is impregnated with sulphur
ic acid gas held in suspension. The
poisonous properties OF the sulphuric
acid are well recognized, and it is
claimed that the symptoms of the
disease purported to be typhoid at
the Clara are those Of acid poisoning.
A quantity ofthe water has been
shipped to Logan to be tested, and
the result of the analysis will be
awaited with interest, both by the
Utah & Eastern Copper Co., who
we are sure would so to any expense
rather than jeopardize the lives and
health Of a community, and by the
public in general

could name men who pride them
selves on their piety, who are elo-
puent preachers Of righteousness, who
canpray long and loud and who seem
to think that they at least are in 1.-THE
straight and narrow way, who make
it point to never pay there debts
if they can get beyond the reach Of
the law. 1t is bad enough in all
consc ience to be swindled out of
your just dnes by men from whom,
judging by their general course, you
would hardly expect anything better,
but when you fall into the hands of
one of the csc sheep clad wolves it
is much more disagreable, for you
not only lose your money, but also
your confidence in your fellow man
man. 1t seems that the laws for
the collection of debts need to be
changed some to enable men to CO.
llect their dues more effectually
than can be done under present con-
ditions. The old English law for
the collection of debts would be
none too severe for some of the
chaps that make it a point to get
all they can on credit with the evil
dent intention of beating their credi-
tors. We well remember one re-
preventative of this class who after
obtaining credit to a considerable
amount from Cooperative institution
informed the manager that his first
duty was to his family, and that if
after he had provided comfortably
for them If he had anything left he
would pay it on his debts, and until
then he did not want to hear any
more about it. Such fellows as that
would be fit candidates for the debt
or's prison and onght to be there.
A person who contracts debt with
out knowing or caring how he is
going to pay it is risking, not his
own money, but the money Of
the creditor, and when he holds
such sentiments as those referred
to, he is dishonest. The diff
ficulty is to so arrange the law as to
protect the honest debtor from the
dishonest creditor. and at the same
time compel the dishonest debtor to
pay his debts. Public opinion is an
important lever in this connection,
and when it sets in the right diIec-
ton helps very materially in the COZ
lection of debt. But it is not often
that it takes the creditors side of
the case, there is always more or
less-sympathy for the poor debtor,
although he may really be better able
to pay than the creditor is to lose.

FLOUR is an extremely scarce ar
ticle to get in Cedar at the present
time. y good crop of wheat has
been raised, and there is no doubt
plenty of grain in the settlement, but
it is in the hands Of the producer,
who is holding it in hopes Of raise
in price, with III result that the
dealers haze r6iY nofn9wtASf TO
obtain -four for tie trade. 'fhe pro
Queer is but little better off as far
as -four is concerned, for the one
mill which has stood still all summer
for want of grain to grind, is now
so crowded that owners of grists re
fortunate if they can get it ground
as fast as they can eat it; in fact if
they have large families 1t is rot at
all unlikely that lhey may have to
skip a meal or two now and again.
The lncky chap appears to be the
man from a distance, who is accom-.
modated on that account while the
Cedarite looks on with hungry eyes
as the non resident carts his flour
away. 1t is of no apparent advan-
tage TO live in the town where the
mill is located. Flour was selling
at the Cedar Coop two weeks since
for S.. per hundred. now you cannot
buy it at any price, and it they had
any it would cost at least $s.5o'

The date for the execution of
Peter Mortenson for the murder or
James r. Hay at Salt Lake CITY
in December OF 1901, has again been
set, this time for the goth of next
November The crime of which
Mortenson stands convicted is one
OF the most revolving, cold blooded
deeds that has ever been committed
and Notwithstanding the evidence
Of his guilt is most conclusive he
has been able to avoid punishment
for nearly two years, and there IS
nothing certain about his execution
