silent, cold and still, where loving
hands and bleeding hearts so
tenderly laid it in the home of
the beautiful dead in Galloway
Cemetery. But rest assured sor-
rowing ones, the spirit has taken
its flight and now rests in the
Sweet Eden of love in the Pari-
disc of God, and will wait and
watch the coming of loved ones
as they cross the river one by
one. The deceased leaves an
aged companion, ten children, 20
grand children to mourn their
great loss. They have the sym
pathy of large circle of friends
in their sad bereavement.
How sweet the love that bind the hearts.
To Ii m whose presence here we miss;
When loving ones are called to part,
And give the farewell parting kiss:
Where home is made so lonely sad,
And hearts left bleeding by the way;
No Fathers voice to make us glad,
When evening comes at close of day,
But this we know Dear Fathers gone,
Aud is with us on earth no more;
His rest is sweet in that beyond,
Where suffering comes not on that shore:
Bnt we are saddened as we look,
Within that home and finding there;
No father reading that Precious Book,
But only see that vacant chair.
He suffered much; He suffered long,
With patience did his suffering bear;
While listening for the evening song.
To watt his spirit over there
And hearing then that voice so sweet,
| My faithful one come home, Oh come;
| That spirit took its flight to greet,
Earth's loved ones gone to that Sweet Home
| We miss thee father in the home.
We miss thee since thou went away:
We miss thee when the evening comes,
We miss thee in the twilight gray;
We look within that sacred room,
| Where last we heard thy loving voice;
| And tears uubdden to each doth come,
With hearts of grief come sorrow gloom.
| Farewell companion and father dear,
We know twill not be very long;
| When some sweet day we each will hear,
| LIES welcome, happy evening song;
IT'S then we'll cross that river too,
| And meet thee in that better land;
| Where life is sweet and hearts are true,
| And clasp no more the parting hand.

County conventions that have
not yet been held should with
hold their endorsement of the
present state officials until the
state board has passed upon the
valuation of railroad property for
assessment purposes. If all 9th
er property is to be listed at its
cash value it is but justice that
property of corporations should
he assessed on the same basis.
The republican party can not
afford to renominate any state

There can be but little doubt
of the result of the election in
this city on the license question.
We have to elect but one council

larger the majority is against

State Veterinarian Thomas has
recommended lime and sulphur
dip for cattle infected with lice,
mango and other troubles of that
nature and insists that the same
shall be applied the moment the
allment is known to exist in a
herd. The statutes gives the
veterinarian authority to pre-
scribe treatment and fixes a $50
penalty for refusing or neglect
ing to follow his suggestions.
A short time after the promulga.

of firms engaged in the manu-.

appealed to DR.. Thomas and
Governor Mickey asking that
the order be recinded or modified

Broken Bow has built up a
favorable reputation for its
sobriety and annually it is add
ing TO its population men of tenn
perance views who come here to
educate their children. We can
not afford to drive this class of

paltry dollars that a saloon may
bring into the treasury.

principal topic of the day. The same
old fight of saloon or no saloon is the
issue at stake. The interests of the town
seem to be entirely forgotten in an at
tempt to decide whether we shall drink
whiskey over the bar or continue to get
our supply from the bootlegger In
other words the town is of a secondary
consideration, so long as we get whiskey.

In his Sundays scolding of Folk
Governor Dockery refers to what
the ring or machine" has done
for the State in the last forty years.
The trouble with the Governor is
that he confounds the party organ

and local committees or active or.
ganization of the party is generally
all right; it is the ring or ma.
chine" manipulation inside the &C.
tive organization to which the rank

ration society that uses its position
for selfish ends and resorts to all
sorts of methods, whether corpora.

itself and pets in place. We have
