While capital in town is "a mighty
good thing to have, provided it is used
rightly, nevertheless push, energy and
public spiritedness will do wonders to-
ward upbuilding town even if capital

Newberg Graphic illustrates this point
quite forcibly:
"The lack of capital is not the great
est misfortune that can befall town.

Fifteen thousand, seven hundred and

trees, are being set out by the Blalock
Fruit company on the big fruit farm at
College Place. About 5000 have been
put in so far. The location is on the

ATHENA, MARCH 30, 1904

The Times Mountaineer believes Con-
gresham Williamson is conscientiously
trying to do something for his constitu-
ents, and that when he introduced and
passed through the house his bill for the
alleged relief of Sherman county settlers
he was not aware that every provision of
his bill had already been complied with,
and that the information called for had
been on file in the Office of the secretary
OF the interior since March, 1902; and
that he was not trying to "play politics"
when he incumbered the United States
statutes with house bill No. 3529. But
whether he was honestly endeavoring to
serve his constituents or playing to the
galleries matters little. What he has
done amounts to nothing whatever. 1t
is simply time wasted. Though it is not
too late for him to do something practic-
able, and we would suggest that he de-
vote his energies to practicable propo-
sition, something tangible, something
that will be OF actual benefit to the set
tiers of Sherman county, who, by a de-
cision OF the supreme court, in the cases

CECIL BROWN WILL
RUN INDEPENDENTLY

Cecil Brown announces that he will
run for the Senate as an independent
Republican. Mr.. Brown claims to have
pledge of support from independent
men in all parties. His defeat at the
district convention on Friday prompted
Mr.. Brown to run for office. He is said
to have the necessary twenty-five sig
natures attached to a petition, which
is sufficient to have the Registrar of
Elections put his name on the election
ballots.
1t was first rumored on the streets
that Mr. Brown had left the Republican
party altogether and intended annexing
himself to the Democratic party. Demo-
crats shook their heads when asked if
this were true, but during the day Mr..
Brown denied that it was his purpose
to leave the Republican party.
Mr.. Brown is likely to have large
vote at the expense of Carlos Long.

held until his death, He was a MEM

One of the most prominent of the
island captains received his last pro-
motion last night when Edward Fred
erick Cameron passed away For
eron has been a leading figure in
island shipping circles and previous to
that time he devoted the larger part of
his life to following the sea. AS mas
ter of one of the P. & o. liners running
ont of Calcutta, as master of the Will
der Steamship Company's boats for
over seventeen years and as harbor
pilot he has impressed all who have
had relations with him by his courage,
his integrity and his trustworthiness.
He loved the sea and was captain
that could be depended upon by his
superiors. Those who knew him best
as a man bear witness to his splendid
character and say that he did not have
an enemy in the world. He was of the
most courageous disposition and always
sacrificed his own comfort for that of
others. An incident is told of the time
when he took the Kinau with the Ha-
waiian Commission over to Hilo. The
boat was jammed to the rails with peo-
pie and her officers were tired out, yet
Captain Cameron insisted on giving his
berth in the cabin to a newspaper man
who was without a place to sleep.
Edward Frederick Cameron was born
in New York on the 25th day of No
vember. 1S39 being 65 years old at his
death. AT an early age he went to sea
and followed it all his life. At an
early age he became captain of one of
the P. & o. liners on the Indian Ocean
running out of Calcutta. He was cap
tain of many other vessels and voy-
aged all over the globe. About the
year 1880 Captain Cameron came to
and took a position under the
Steam Navigation Com
pany as captain of the steamer c. r.

questions of an International charac-

two such questions have been

the treatment of the wireless system

FIRST CATCH YOUR HARE.

Russia has served notice on the
world that after she has whipped the
Japanese she will make peace in her
own way without interference by
other powers; and now announce
ment comes from Toxic that after
taking Port Arthur the japanese will
hold it forever, to guarantee lasting
peace in the east.
These evidences OF the uncOnquer-
able will of the cOntending nations is
edifying, but we cannot help reflect
ing that the Russians are a long way
from having the japanese beaten.
War has so many uncertainties
that no man can tell how the pres
ent struggle will end. but simple folk
who know nothing of its workings, or
of the great game of diplomacy in
