In Memoriam,

Mary Shinar, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. l.. Shinar, was born in Portland,
Oregon, on August 81, 1898, and died in
Toledo, Oregon, on January II, 1904,
aged years, months and 20 days.
Little Mary was the youngest of n
family of five children and was bright,
lovable child. Her illness extended
over about ten days during which time
her sutferings were bravely born, and
when in her last hours it came to her
childish mind that she was to be called
from this earth she told her sorrowing
mother that she was "going to see
Cod" After night of severe suffering
her little spirit took it's flight from its
prison of clay, aud surrounded by her
sorrowing loved ones, passed on to that
better land, where she now dwells with
God.
Suffer little children to come unto
me, and forbid them not, for of such is
the Kingdom of Heaven
A FRIEND.

The Five Rivers Bridges.
EDITOR LEADER:

EDITOR LEADER:
l'was surprised to see in a recent is.
sue of The LEADER an advertisement
for bids to build bridge across Five
Rivers, above the ranch of Frank Sets.
In behalf of our honorable board OF
Commissioners and the taxpaying citi-
zens of the county, both of whom we
wish to thoroughly understand the case
permit me to say few words about the
Five Rivers bridges.
There is bridge badly needed OH
Five Rivers, and bid for bridge in
the right place would strike the ap-
proval of all our citizens: but as it is.
our county is asked to appropriate
money to build bridge, not where it
will be most needed, but where few
families will receive the main benefit,
trusting, that if they get this, the least
needed bridge, we can take chances ON
getting the most needed one.
To prove to you who are not familiar
with the country that the bridge asked
for is not the most needed one, | will
state the case as plainly as l can, and
any one who is familiar with the case
will tell you. that what | say is true:
There are the two fords crossing said
river, which the settlers use in doing
their hauling to and from the outer
valley; but the upper ford, or place
designated in the Did for the bridge can
be forded when the lower one cannot;
so, if there was bridge across the up
per ford, the travel could then only 90
to the lower one, and consequently that
bridge would be of no real benefit to the
teamsters until the other bridge was
built.
This shows plainly that the most
needed bridge is at the lower ford. It
is true that the upper bridge could be
used to advantage by all the settlers,
but it will benefit those principally who
own land on either side of the bridge as
stock bridge, and also in going to and
from the postoffice.
But the point is this: Our county
cannot afford to build every bridge that
would be handy, and we as consci-
entious citizens have no right to stip-
ulate for any bridge but the most
needed ones. If we prove to our Com
missioners that we are the right kind
OF citizens, and will ask only for such
local improvements as are necessary.
we will come far nearer getting them
than if they find us unreasonable in our
demands. a FIVE RIVERS CITIZEN.

Georgia's Flag.

| A flag which forms a part of the
decoration of the office of r. E. Allen
will be an object of interest to every
visitor and every citizen of Augusta.
| The flag is a plain white one with a
red star in the center, emblematic of
Georgia, which at the time the banner
was first unfurled to the breezes was
an independent state, having by act of
| legislature broken the bonds uniting
her to the United States government,
| and not having at that time become
| an integral part of the Confederate
| states of America.
The flag is no other than the one
which was run up on the flagstaff at
the arsenal when that post was cap
tured by the state militia, and the Stars
and Stripes pulled down from the place
of honor. This flag was the first one
placed by an independent government
in the South, and takes precedence over
the claims made by other states and
cities.
Those We're stirring times. South
Carolina had seeded in December, Mis-
sissippi and Alabama had followed, and
on January 10, 1861, the Legislature of
Georgia, in session at Milledgeville, sew
cred its connection with the Union and
II pSNNt'HS d sovereign ana independent
state, On the 21st the official hand and
seal of Governor Joe Brown was affixed
to the proclamation, and on the 22d
the chief executive reached Augusta.
There was a hurrying to and fro of
the military officers of the city and a
gathering of the forces. Waynesboro
was also communicated with, and up
from Burke came two companies to take
part in the first victory against the
federal troops, which, however, was
without conflict, and the first flag was
not born with a baptism of blood.
On the 23d Governor Brown made a
formal demand on Captain Arnold Ell
zey, of the Second United States Artil-
lery in command of the arsenal that
the post be turned over to him. In his
demand he stated that Georgia was no
longer part of the general govern
ment, and, while she desired to be on
good terms with the United States. that
the arsenal was needed by this state
and an armed force of an alien nation
would not be tolerated within her Dor
bers.
After communication with Washing
ton Captain Elzey held a parIey and
agreed to evacuate, his troops being
allowed to march out with the honors
of war and to leave the state without
molestation. This was agreed to. and
on January "a, 1861, nearly three months
before the guns We're trained on Fort
Sumter, the surrender of the arsenal
was made and a new flag supplanted
the one of the epublic.-Augusta Ga.

GOTO MUST NOW
SERVE HIS TIME

Goto, a transition period convict who
gained his liberty through a decision
of Judge Gear nearly three years ago
was captured by officer Tanaka yester-
day and is again in prison. He will be
treated as an escaped prisoner and must
now serve out the life sentence given
him on conviction of having committed
rape.
Goto was the first of the men con-
victed during the transition period to
be brought before Judge Gear on
habeas corpus proceedings and Judge
Gear ordered his release. Since that
time he has been at liberty although
all of the other transition period pris-
oners We're rearrested by the police as
fast as Gear set them free and held un-
til the United States Supreme Court,
in the Mankichi case decision, held that
the men were legally convicted and
that they must serve their sentences
Had Goto returned to Japan he would
have escaped serving. Since his release
he has been employed on various plan
tations about the islands.

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. It is feeling common
to the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make us more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed % biliousness. No doubt
a crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause OF
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate Of pain, loss and fear "a
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like vast cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
ly be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence of the
people by bald assertions and
Boosting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves it's
reputation is conceded. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritiye and curative prop
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry.
Nothing has such record of
success in Scrofula, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
emaciating complaints and dis
orders that tend to undermine
the foundations of strength and
vigour. It's use helps to show
life's brighter side. Professor
Reddy, of Canada, says 81 have
much pleasure in stating that ]

and found it to be a very valu-
able remedy as well as pleasing
to take" You cannot be disep,

WANT WOODS
TO REFEREE
Genial Athletic Instruc-
tor Nay Give
Decision.

With two island championships TO be
? contested for by contestants who have
come to the front after established
victories over no despicable opponents
the coming contest at the orpheum on
Saturday is bringing out the greatest
interest perhaps ever exhibited in an
affair of this kind.
The program is certainly an enticing
one, Barry versus Murphy for fifteen
rounds is the prime event of course,
but the six round contest between Hui
hui and Mcdonald creates a great deal
of interest In the main event two
evenly matched men at catch weights,
both capable OF receiving unusually Sc
we're punishment, will meet in the
neighborhood of 1853 pounds with Bar
ry perhaps a pound or two the heavier.
Barry's work is known here and he
has many admirers. Murphy is clev-
er, very clever and game. He will
certainly land on Barry and the lat
ter even should he win will know he
has been in a contest.
Plucky Huihui has many hackers
won by sheer dint of game exhibitions.
Mcdonald is said to to have won from
Kennard who is well remembered here
and as both men agree to the winner
taking all the contest should be lively.
Both men are to weigh in at 134 lbs.

opponents worthy of their nettle from

bilities
The question of a referee for the
main bouts is vexed one. Good ref
erees, who are welcome to boxers and
public alike, are hard to find A close
knowledge of the game, gained by
actual ringside experience, is abso-
lutely necessary and most of these men
are tinged too closely with profession
alism to satisfy the public. Jess
Woods, with a newly started business
on his hands. is entirely unavailable
but his brother Bert Woods of the
Woods Institute, possesses in an emil
nent degree the requisite of a first
class referee and pressure is being
brought to bear upon him to officiate
on Saturday.
He has intimate knowledge of the
game, has an unsullied reputation for
fairness that extends back from the
time he first made his bow to the pub
lie, is cordially liked by all communi-
ties and is perfectly acceptable to the
boxers themselves. Himself an emf
nent athlete, Woods is calculated to
handle the men with ease, his knowl-
edge of rules and of actual boxing is
based on experience and his verdict in
any contest would unquestionably be
accepted at once by everybody. Mr.
Cohen will be lucky if he can persuade
Professor Woods to act and as every
body seems to want him it is probable
that he will be brought to accept
