Much Mush.

BY hard work, because of bad
print, we have deciphered page
of mush or slush or something like
that in the Sentinel of today, that
eminates from the befogged brain
of that famous "hero of many
bottles" The effusion of that ir-
responsible cripple is pitiable.
He calls City Clerk Montgomery a
puke, j. B. Dollison skunk, and
Judge Bright "hired lawyer of
varied opinions" Green is none
of these. He cannot puke for
nothing turns his stomach; he
cannot be a skunk for they retreat
from his odor, and he cannot have
''varied opinions" for it takes
brains to have opinions, and his
has been absorbed years ago in his
"battle with the bottles" AS to
the substance of his belch, we will
hold our nose and slip it into brine
until next week.

Obituary.

Walter Edward Brown, eldest
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Edward M
Brown was born in Hooking Co.
Ohio, April 18th, 1888.
He passed from the land of th'
dying to the land of the living
April 2nd, 1904, when he lacked
only Is days of being 81 years o.
age.
A member of the Sunday schoo
for number of years, he became
a member of the Logan Presbyter
ian church, when he was about IL
years old, and he remained faith
full member of this church, unit
the day of his death.
He attended the Logan public
schools, leaving the High Schoo
about three years ago, when h'
went TO Columbus to accept a us'
full and responsible position; ant
he came home to die-!eaving il
Columbus nothing but appreciat
ion and love among both his EN-
ployers and fellow employees
While he found many pleasan
friends in Columbus, yet his let
ters and visits showed that hi
heart was often in Logan, and i
was sweetly sad both to him ant
to the family that he could spent
his last hours amid the sympathy
and loving ministrations of tn,
loved ones at home.
But God has called Waite
Brown to himself, and while tn,
natural eye sees in his death moth
ing but loss, the spiritual eye see
that Gods way is "far better,
to be "absent from the body ant
to be present with the Lord"
The funeral was held at tn,
Presbyterian church on Monday
afternoon at 2 o'clock, DR.. H. j
Steward conducting the services
Many friends from Columbus al
we'll as from Logan attended
showing that he had won place
in the esteem of those with whom
he had associated away from home
as well as having many friends il
his native town.

Washington, March 15.--The con-
tention CT the government that the
merger was illegal was fully sus-
tained by the United States supreme
court In the opinion delivered in the
merger case of the Northern Securi-
ties company. The court was not,
however, unit in the decision.
The majority opinion Of the court
was handed down by Justice Harlan.
and It upheld the decree of the circuit
court for the district of Minnesota in
every particular. Four Of the justices
dissented from the five constituting
the majority. The division In the
court was due to difference of opin-
lon as to the right of federal control
Of state corpofatj ons. The majority
opinion proceeded on the theory that
congress has right under the consti-
tuition to control interstate commerce.
no matter by whom conducted, while
the minority or dissenting opinion
was based on the theory that In tho
present case the effort is to regulate
the ownership of stocks by state cor.
porations and that such ownership IL
not interstate traffic.
When, therefore, the members of
the tribunal filed into the chamber.
they were met by an expectant
crowd which filled every seat both in
side and outside tho bar. Seated
among the attorneys was Attorney
General Knox and Secretary Taft,
and an unusual number Of senators
and members of the house. There
was no surprise manifested when,
promptly on the assembling of the
court Justice Harlan began the deliv.
cry OF the opinion. The fact that he
had been selected for the preparation
of the document at once led most peo-
pie &c think that the decision would
uphold the Sherman antitrust law
and uphold the contentious of the
government. The justice read his
opinion from a printed copy which
covered 80 pages, and consumed about
an hour and quarter in its delivery.
Very soon after Justice Harlan ha6
concluded his presentation of the case
1t became evident that the court had
divided on the questions at issue, and
as other opinions were announced II
developed that there not only had
been very close shave for the gov
ernmept, but that one of the members
of the court who cast his vote with
the majority entertained opinions OF
his own, which fact rendered the de-
cision all the more marked and inter
esting. This was Justice Brewer,
who, while he concurred in the result
announced in an independent opinion
Of his own that he held the view that
previous antitrust decisions had
been more sweeping than was justi'
fed.

Death Of George DeishIey, Jr.


caster for the last several years,
and declining in health he return
ed to his home here, about two
months ago. Against all the
medical skill that could be procur-
ed, he rapidly grew worse and
passed away.
The funeral services were held
at the home on Wednesday after
noon, the Lodge of Eagles of Ian
caster and Red Men of Logan of
which he was a member, attended
the funeral in body. A special
train bearing nearly 200 with the
Mechanics Band, came from Lam
caster. The Eagles used their
impressive ritualistic service at the
home and the Red Men at the
grave, releasing the white dove to
represent the flight of the soul.
Rev. 7. b. White preached the
funeral and male quartette furn-
ished the music.
George Deishley was born and
raised in Logan. Was a school
boy among us, and was of such a
happy and jolly disposition that he
could truthfully count every per-
son in the community, his friend.
The friends he made in his few
years in Lancaster, is attested by
the great crowd of prominent busi-
ness men with their wives that
came to the funeral. The vast
banks of floral tributes were by far
the most elaborate and beautiful
we have ever seen.
The following obituary which
tells the story of the life of the
deceased was read by Rev. White ::
George w. Deishley was born in
Logan, Aug. 2, 1877, and died
Sunday morning, April 3rd, 1904,
aged 26 years, 8 months and day.
He was the second son of George
and Sarah Deishley, and leaves
with these sorrowing parents, a
sister and two brothers, who grieve
for the first broken link in the
chain of home companionship.
The greater part of his life was
spent in Logan, where, as school
boy and young man, he made many
friends, who rememb bered him kind
y during his illness. For the last
four years he had been living in
Lancaster and the host of sympa-
thetic friends in that city, who
helped to Tighten his long days of
pain by their thoughtful courtesies,
shows that his genial and happy
disposition was appreciated and
loved.
He belonged to the Red Men of
Logan and the Eagles of Lancas-
ter, and greatly enjoyed these
affiliations with good and loyal
companions.
He came home about ten weeks
ago, and for a short time, his ill
ness not being so acute, he could
leave the house; but the last weeks
which brought great suffering and
pain, were spent in the quiet sick
room. Here he was the same
cheerful boy of the strong, well
days, his heart little lonely for
absent friends, but never COM
planning, never discouraged, al
ways trying to make the hearts of
his dear ones brighter and more
hopeful.
Death came to him on the Res
direction morning and found him
fearlessly smiling, on his lips
message of hope and peace to his
loved ones, happy and satisfied in
knowing that the Easter sun would
shine for him in fairer climes.
