Mrs. Kate WCod was born Apfll
0, 1857, at Union Furnace, where
her father, Capt. VIM. M. Bowen,
was manager of the furnace at
that time. Her mother, Mary +.
Bowen, died many years ago. In
October, 1878, she was married to
Charles Wood, at Lancaster, and
they went to Chicago, Detroit and
Escanaba. AT the latter place Mr..
Wood died, four months after the
birth of their daughter, Margaret,
now fourteen years of age. Their
son, Charles Wood, is now in the
south, engaged in the lumber bust
ness. Mrs. Wood died at the
home of her brother-in-law, George
Work, on Glenview Heights, Sun
day morning at five o'clock, of q
stroke of apoplexy, following ner-
vous prostration. Funeral services
were conducted by Rey. Chas,
Wilson, Tuesday afternoon, at two
o'clock, at the Work home.
Messrs. Verne Bowen and William
F. Bowen, ex-Auditor of Hooking
county, are surviving brothers OF
Mrs. Wood.

That Holy Moses Open Letter.

That letter in the Huls organ
last week signed by Larimer,
Chairman, and Holy Moses Strawn,
Secretary, of republican committee
(defunked, was joke that peeled
the old hide loose from their
shoulders meath the yoke, and re-
vealed old sores that they had
pulled against long time, and
they hurt.
The letter said in part: "Our
county (republican) ticket was de-
feated by the most corrupt politi-
cal deal in the history of Hooking
county. A faction of the party
made deal with the Democratic
candidates, by which in considera-
tion of the Democratic members of
the board of Deputy Election
Supervisors appointing certain
set of judges and clerks, this fac
tion agreed to support the Demo
cratic county and municipal tick
cts, and defeat our splendid ticket
fairly nominated at primary
election by the Republican party"
Well, what do you think of that,

Mose-(say Bill, people think

tion. Yes, the two democratic
members of the board of election,
Mr.. Mauk and Mr.. Morrison, vot.
ed for the so-called "square deal''
judges and clerks of elections
They were taught by their fathers
who knew nothing but pure demo
cracy, that the recognition of the
rights of the people as against
bosses, is Cody and right, and il
took no bribe or hope of reward to
instill such principles into thei,
consciences.
The idea of such men as Boss

congruous.
The board of election is COM
posed of two republicans and two
democrats. Then how in the Sam
Hill could the democratic members
agree to do this or that when they
haye no majority. oh, yes, we
heard that Isaiah Frazure, a re-
publican member of the board and
an honest farmer of Marion town
ship, also voted for the "square
deal" judges and clerks. Mr..
Larimer and Hymn Books did not
say anything in their letter about
Mr.. Frazure. Mr.. Alonzo Naile
was the one member of the board,
out of the four, to vote against
the "square deal" election officers,
and Lon was factional, and we
know he was voting against his
conscience, for he is an honest
man. We just laughed aloud at
Lon playing mad and walking out
of the meeting because "they
wouldn't play his way" Lon
Naile is one of Logan's shrewdest
thinkers, and we'll balanced men,
and when he played the baby act
on the board, we laughed, just
like he did when the "Mayor
headed the mob"
TO assume that any Corrupt
deal' on the part Of republican
faction and the democrats defeat
ed the republican ticket in Hook
ing county is simply absurd and
untrue. The one thing that helped
defeat it most certain, was the act
of the Corrupt deal'' of John
White holdirg a meeting of the
old committee and voting them.
selves as new committee for an
other year, without the vote o1
their party. That, and the boss
ism of George Cox and the rotten
ness of Myron Herrick, is what
did the business. The rank anC
file Of their party would not stand
for such baseness. When Judge
Parker last year undertook to
"boss" the democratic party, the
rank and file gave him the glaG
toe -of-the-b boot, and one of Teddy't
sample majorities was Hockings

The Chinese Miniser at Washington
makes the following sensible remarks
on the plea that nations must have
big navies and armies for the purpose
of securing peace:
Strange as /. may seem, the enlight-
ened opinion of the world is steadily
coming around to the position taken
by China with respect to militarism.
War could never be anything else but
he'll, as General Sherman described it.
The Chinese found that out 1000 years
ago. Now, the greatest powers of the
world seem to come to the same con-
cluSiOn. With the view of reducing the
possibility Of war as much as possible,
arbitration is the methods now best
recommended for the settlement of in
ternational disputes. This is step in
the right direction. But as long as
nations are armed to the teeth there is
always strong temptation to test the
effectiveness of the weapons they pos
sess.
