In Memory Of ]. N. Sutton.

MI. j. M. Sutton was born Dec.
10Th, 1927, married to Martha
Jordan, January the I4th, 1847.
and they lived a devoted life until
November 25th, 1894, when the
death angel separated them. He
joined the Baptist church at MT.
Moriah, July 18th, 1855, and re-
NAMED there until the organiza-
ton of Mt. Vernon church, near
his home. He moved his member
ship to Mt. Vernon and remained
there one of the leaders in that
church, until 1896, when the
church saw fit to discontinue. He
then moved bis membership to
Mt. Pleasant church, where he re-
manned until his death, May the
10th, 1904.
Uncle Joe," as be was ia
miliarly called, was good man,
a good citizen, loved his country
and served her at a time when
men we're tried; but he is gone
now, and those Of us left behind
are sad. When our loved ones are
called away, why should we
mourn? This old world of sin
and sorrow is not our home; it is
but short abiding place, where
we linger for awhile, preparatory
to taking our journey to that fur
Their and better shore, where the
wicked cease from troubling and
the way-worn pilgrims rest; when
tolls are all over. and tears are
never shed; when some one dies
of whom we know but little, we
give it nothing more than pass
ing thought. Not so with those
we have known and been intimate
with for. so many long years.
With such there are ties Of friend
ship, love and affection, binding
us together, and growing as we
journey on in the pilgrimage of
life, and nothing but death can
sever them and even then, with
those of us left behind, they linger
still in memory's golden shrine as
fond and blissful recollections Of
days gone by. In the death of
Brother Sutton the church has
lost a devoted member. His pres
ence in our meetings, his bright
face uplifted toward the preacher
ever helping the man of God by
his prayers and sympathy; yes,
he had fought the good fight, be
had finished his course, he had
kept the faith, and he went home
to receive his crown and hear the
Well done, thou good and faith
full servant, enter thou into the
Joy of thy Lord"
Dear Brother Sutton was quiet
ly laid away to rest by the side of
his companion On May the 18th,
1904, under the auspices of the
Masonic Fraternity, in the pres
enc of large crowd of sorrowing
friends and relatives, where Eds
johnson and Scarborough spoke
words of commentator Of his life
and work.
Sorrow not, dear children. as
those who have no hope. Father
and mother are now in Heaven.
By faith we look fol ward and
realize time, when the voice Of
the archangeI and the trump Of
God shall be heard in the Valley
Of Death, when our dear Brother
shall be raised in glorious beauty
and immortal youth, and again
united with US in the praises of
God, when we shall see truth,
love and mercy in triumph de-
scending, and nature all glowing
in Eden's first bloom on the cold
cheek of Death, smiles and roses
are blending, and beauty immor
tai, aWakes from the tomb.

SUMMER TRADE
NORMALLY DULL
FLOOD DAMAGE TO WINTER
WHEAT OVEREsTIMATED.
Better in South and Southwest

New York. July 22.-Reports received
this week from special agents Of the In
ternational Mercantile Agency at the lead
ing ceuters of accumulation and distribu-
ton in the country show very little change
in conditions from those previously stated.
Actual trade is dull, a normal situation
for this season Of the year. The outlook
for fall and winter business is better in
some sections, notably the south and
southwest than it has been for a long
5 time Calmer judgment has reduced the
estimates Of loss by floods to 10000, 900
bushels of winter wheat for the four states
most affected. One reliable trade journal
has Issued bulletin which points to a
total yield of wheat Of 610, 0000 900 bushels,
and an exportable surplus Of nearly 49,
900, 900 bushels. These are facts which
have helped to dislodge some Of the dis
couraging sentiments of the recent past.

BRYAN SEEKS TO
REFORM HIS PARTY
Issues a Plea for It's Advocacy of
State Ownership of Rail
roads.

Lincoln, Neb., July 22.-W. J. Bryan
has begun crusade for reforms in the
democratic party by proposing that
the party stand for state ownership Of
railroads, government control of tele-
graph lines, an income tax and the
election Of federal judges by the peo-
pie, and that further that the party
oppose private monopoly. In plea
for these reforms issued yesterday, he
said in part.
I have heretofore refused to take a
position upon the question Of government
ownership Of railroads. first, because had
not until recently studied the subject and,
second, because the question had not been
reached. Recent events have convinced me
, that the time is now ripe for the presen-
tation Of this question.
The plan usually suggested is for the
purchase of these roads by the federal
government. This plan, it seems to me,
is more Objectionable than a plan which
involves the ownership and operation Of
these roads by the several states To
put the railroads in the hands of the
+! federal government would mean an enor-
nous Capitalization of power. 1t would
| give to the federal government largely
increased influence over the citizen and
| the citizens affairs and such centraliza-
ton Is not at all necessary.
| The several states can own and oper-
ate the railroads within their borders Just
as effectively as 1t can be done by the
federal government, and II 1t be done
by the states, the objection based upon
the fear Of Capitalization is entirely an
swered.
If the federal government had the
railroads to build there would be con
slant warning between different sections to
secure fair share Of the new buildine
and development, but where this is left
to the state, the people in each state car
decide what railroads they desire to build
or to buy.
We have ALSO reached a time when the
postoffice department should embrace g
telegraph system as well as a mail system
The private monopoly must be destroy ed
The democratic party has in two cam
paigns stood for an income tax. The plank
was omitted this year because the men II

Ijeopardize success In the eastern states
This objection may have weight when the
appeal is made to a. particular section anc
to the wealthy men of that section, but
it cannot have weight when the party
GOES forth, as it must ultimately do, t,
appeal to the masses.

FEAR OF FAILURE
FOR WORLDS FAIR
National Commission Points to
the Lack Of Proper Adver-
Using.

st. Louis, Mo-, July 22.-Because
they believe the fair is not being prop
erly exploited by the press In this
and other countries. the national COM
mission has caused the following LETT
ter to be addressed to President Fran
els of the exposition:
BY direction OF. the national commission,
respectfully, call your attention to the
apparent need for an extension and en-
largement Of the publicity feature Of the
exposition. The zeal and efficiency Of
the press Of the city of st. Louis has
demonstrated what may be- done in the
creation of active interest by enlightened
exploitation thru the public press. With
in the range of the general circulation Of
the papers published in this city all fea-
lures Of the fair have been made known;
but, unhappily, the Journals Of this city,
like those of all other cities, enjoy gem
eral circulation only in a limited area.
Beyond the line of the special influence
of the local press the extensive proper
tons and interesting details Of the fair
do not appear to the commission to have
been made known to the general public
to the extent or in the manner calculated
to inspire the interest and secure the
attendance warranted by the extraordi-
narymerits Of the great educational force
herein stated. In the opinion of the COM
mission, this delinquency does not arise
from any lack of devotion to the public
welfare by the press Of the country at
large.
After stating the munificent recognf-
ton given the project by the national
and state governments, the later con-
tinues:
The buildings are completed, the ex-
hibits are Installed and the exposition has
been in progress for substantially three
sevenths Of its allotted period. The faith
of the management has been justified by
the approving judgment Of all who have
entered the gates, but the daily attend
ance has been far short of what it should
be from any point of view. Unhappily.
the magnificent proportions of the expo
sition do not seem to be fully understood
by the masses Of the people turnout the
United States, whence attendance must
be chiefly expected. The results obtained
from the territory commanded by the
press Of St. Louis warrants the belief that
the unsatisfactory conditions prevailing
would be overcome if the country at large
could be adequately advised of what is
to be seen, learned and enjoyed within
| these grounds.

not be disappointed as far as the cable is

concerned.
The line lies out in the ocean and on
the way down avoids Canadian waters
The ship reels it out at about six miles
an hour, and thus covers almost $50 miles
a day. On the way down communication
was kept up on the vessel with Sitka and
by the Canadian line thru Dawson with
the United States.
The Burnside buoyed the line at the
southern end of Vancouver island and just
inside the straits of Juan de Fuca and
went to Tacoma for another supply Of
wire to bridge the gap to Seattle. Cable
offices have been opened here and a line
run out into Puget sound to meet the
