DEATH OF
K. ". WHITE
Obituary by Aaron F. Parker in
in the GrangeyilIe
Free Press

The death of Keith w White OF
Tuesday evening last marks the pass
ing of another of the old pioneers o.
Idaho county whose labors have re-
suited in transforming a virgin will
derness into highly developed ant
thickly settled community. He was
one of the notable men of the country
and has long held leading place
among our people, filling various offices
of trust and ever retaining the conf
dence respect and good will of his fe-
low citizens. He was a man of quick
intelligence. unusual force of charac
ter. large individuality and originality
and a true type of those representative
Americans who laid the foundations
of empire in the west. In the annals
of Idaho county his name will hold a
prominent and honored place.
Born at East Hartford, Connecti-
cut, May Is. 1888. he removed with his
parents to Ohio at an early age, when
that state was still on the remote
frontier. At the age of IS years, after
the death Of his parents. he removed to
st. Louis. came to Colorado in 1859,
removed to Montana in 1863. finally
settling in Idaho county in 1865, where
he mined for a while at the Moose
creek placers. and in 1871 took up the
land northeast Of town which he
owned to the last. For some years he
had resigned the active affairs of life
and spent his time in this city, taking
occasional trips to California and else
where in pursuit of health as he suf-
fered severely with Bright's disease Of
the kidneys. which was the direct cause
OF death.
1t is not known that he had a rela-
tive in the world. but all his acquaint-
ances ware his friends. With the
writer he was nominated on the DEM
ocratic legislative ticket in the disas-
trous campaign of 1894 to represent
Idaho and Nez Perce counties and to-
gether canvassed all the precincts Of
Nee Perez for several weeks. during
which time we were brought into inti-
mate and confidential relations. and I
thus had opportunities Of knowing him
thoroughly and well. and it gives me
great pleasure In this hour of sadness
to bear testimony to his many and
manly, virtues. I have never known
4 better man. He was charitable to
ALL never knew him to say an UNI
kind word Of anyone. The character
that can stand the test Of daily and
hourly association. when the inner life
70 laid bare. IL pure indeed. and I haz-
ard nothing In saying that those who
knew o1r friend Y'Paddy,' loved him
most sshs%,skkI4tsSs
The funeral took place yesterday at
Fairyiew. cemetery under. the auspices
Of Mt. Idaho lodge No. .. A. F. 4 A. M.
Of which he was An old and highly hon
Ord member. Peace to his ashes.

While a sure cure for consumption has
never been discovered. it is the opinion OF
Or. S. w. Abbott. secretary of the Massa-
chusetts state board of health, that the
disease will eventually almost entirely
disappear. In a paper prepared for the
American Statistical asspciation, he states
that the death rate from the disease in
New England at the present time is less
than 30 per 10000 inhabitants. This rate
has diminished largely in all the New
England states, in some as much as so
per cent. in a half century. and the de-
crease appears to be going on now more
rapidly than in earlier years. The death
rate of women has decreased more rap
idly than that of men; and is now less
it was greater. The rate has also de-
creased at every age of life, but more at
older than at younger ages. DR.. Abbott
finds that consumption is more prevalent
in the densely settled than in the sparsely
settled districts, and he believes that, be-
life of the present day has led in part to
the changed conditions In taking up the
ten years statistics for the New England
states we find that Vermont makes the
best showing, having a death rate per
10 900 from consumption of only 1893,
while the showing of the other states is
as follows: Connecticut, 1876; New
Hampshire, 1886; Maine, 1885, Rhode
Island, 1882; Massachusetts,, 20.77.

One weakness of labor unions is in rec
ognizing men as automatic machines, cast
in the same mould, and capable of so
much work. at a given price, in a day,
and not taking into account the difference
in individual capacity. Incompetent
workmen may be given a chance to hold
their jobs and shield themselves behind
the union label. Some of the best ad-
vice ever given on the quality Of MEM
bership in labor organizations was spoken
by Charles Melen, president of the New
York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad
company, in his address to the locomotive
firemen at New Haven when he greeted
them as fellow employees and said: 1T
would seem to me that there are some
minor respects in which you might i'm
prove. Are not your minds too closely
fixed upon what you can get from the
company? Are you not occupying your
time with considering grievances against
the company? Is not too much mental
tissue wasted upon these things? If you
ton of your members If you would only
discipline and handle your own men, so
that when one of them comes to the Of
ficals of the company with the stamp of
your organization, that shall be known as
the badge of efficiency, II seems to me
that would be a better accomplishment
than mere claims for increase OF wages.
And have you not spent too much time
in getting together mere numbers in your

Kin Chow Captured by the Japanese.

The only apparent change in the sit
uation in the Far East is the reported
capture of Kin Chow by the Japanese.
They are said to have taken it by storm.
This will mark an important step in the
movement toward Port Arthur. Kin Chow
commands the narrow isthmus north OF
Port Arthur and its loss would be an
important breach in the outer line of the
Russian defences Rumors of lombard

active, sending out columns in several
directions.

Randolph Woman Found Demented In
the Woods.

Miss Maud Hatch, 80, daughter of Town
Clerk David Hatch of Randolph, who
mysteriously disappeared from home Sun
day noon, was found about daylight We'd
nesday by Willis Howard of Randolph in
some woods at Rochester hollow The
woman was very much deranged men
tally. Her clothing was very wet. pre-
sumably from rain, and she had had
nothing to eat since Sunday. About $50
men searched all Tuesday night. This
great interest was shown because of her
fathers prominence and not because any
reward was offered, The young woman's
special mania is in the line of spiritual
ism She left a l00-page letter on that
subject when she disappeared. 1t is not
expected that there will be any serious
results from her exposure.

The cold blooded murder of Policeman
McGrath OF Burlington has aroused dis

listing facts that, while there is a law on

murderer. public sentiment is against it's
execution. The law would stand in high
er respect II we did away with the death
penalty and provided for sentences at
hard labor for life with no opportunity
