In Defense Of Illinois.

Nilwood ILL.,, April IA, 1904.
Editors Index. I noticed an item in
your paper In regard to w. G. Afford,
saying that if you did not hear from
him soon you would send q bench
warrant after him, that you thought he
was mud bound in Illinois. Such is
not the case. He left just in time to
avoid such catastrophe in our beauti.
full state Of Illinois. You could not ex e.
pect real estate agent from Kansas to
speak in very glowing terms of Illinois
and come here the time Of year he
did. l have lived here longer than he
has and could give better account of
our part of the world. You can Judge
from the following: We have not
got any oats sown yet; they should
have been sown the last half of March
or the first of the present month in
order to insure us good crop. Some
are making an effort to SOW this week
if we don't happen to have a slight
shower wv. G. would call it rain if he
was here Now TO prove to you that
this IS beautiful country, we have
had an ideal day today. Now the
reason did not write this. this morn
ing was because did not know it was
going to be such fine day. Well old
Macaupln Is still largely democratic
and everything moving very nicely our
way at present. If the editor and
patrons do not lind too much fault with
this manuscript may write again IN
the future. Yours from Illinois.

IN MEMORIAM.

At the meridian of a useful and
honored career, in the prime of lite:
when all things seemed so bright and
hopeful for him, our late lamented
friend, Hon Joseph S. Wilson, has
passed to the realm of immortals. His
passing away has left void in the
community that will not soon be filled
He had won his way to position OF
worth and distinction by intrinsic
merit and undaunted will; be had sur
rounded himself with the sweet endear-
ments of home; be had cemented the
friendships of his youth by his fidelity,
he had won esteem aud admiration 10y
his public service, so that it seemed
but fitting that he should garner the
rich fruits of his labors in the enjoy
ment of earthly pleasures and in the
realization of bis highest aspirations.
But a wise and loving Providence de
creed otherwise; and in his seeming
" untimely death those of US WHO
met him in the daily walks Of life, and
enjoyed the sunshine of his happy,
genial disposition, are reminded OF
what shadows we are and what
shadows we pursue"
The life of such en one, as Was ou'
deceased friend, adds to the sum OF
human joy. He performed the task
allotted to him by his Maker in a
spirit of brotherly love that was beau
tiful in it's perfection. His kindly con
slderation of others. his r; " defer
ence to the opinion Of his associates,
his sympathy for the unfortunate
stamped him as gentleman, and Sc
cured for him popularity based upon
something MGR. enduring tlan the Eope
of worldly gain.
His brothers at the bar realized
even in the early years Of his practice
that he possessed qualities which made
him formidable adversary; and the
tact and good judgment with which
he managed his cases won for him
many victory over older and mor.
experienced opponents.
His grave in the quiet cemetery is
covered with floral tributes. Every
howeret there may be considered EN-.
blematic Of a generous deed o: kindly
thought He loved am! he was below.
