SAMUEL JAM ES,


A Few Words Of Recognition Of the Merits
Of One Who Helped to Found the State. .
Samuel James, who died at Centralia
on Monday, the 23d ult., of whose death
a passing reference was made last week,
was born in Co, all, England, April
IL, 1882. He came to this country with
his parents and settled in Racine county,
Wis.,, at nine years of age. Al the age
OF ~, with his parents, he drove team
across the plains. After residence of
a year at Milwaukee, he and his brother,
William, drove their cattle to Grand
Mound Prairie, where they were soon
afterwards joined by the family. Sam.
uel James enlisted in Capt. Henness'
company during the Indian war of 1856.
The family moved to Gray's Harbor in
1858, accompanied by Nathan Goodell,
Mr.. Gates, Patterson Luark and Charles
Byles, and settled at James Rock, now
better known as Gray's Harbor city. In
1862, he married Clara Steel, at Victoria.
The wife and seven descendants survive,
six of whom are boys and one girl.
MIR. James will long be remembered
as a typical representative Of the class
of hardy pioneers who settled the coun-
try and made it possible to found the
prosperous State in which we take so
much pride. He was enterprising, hos
pitable, generous, and though foreign
born, loyal American citizen. He was
active in the discharge of public duty,
but living in the country where the
population was sparse, his field of en-
deavor was limited in extent. He was,
however, in later Territorial days, AS
SCISSOR of this county, and is noted for
having made faithful, conscientious
public officer.
His funeral was attended by nearly
the whole family and many sympathiz-
ing neighbors, including his comrades of
the times which tried mems souls"
to show the tested friendship
which recognizes true merit.

DEATH OF Historic MANI. v.
Holmes, commander of the monitor
Ericsson in her memorable battle with
the rebel ironclad Merrimac, in Hamp.
ton Roads, March 9th, 1862, died at his
home in Wheaton, ILL.,, last Monday.
This engagement was one OF the turn
ing.points in the war, for the Confed-
crate ship had, the day before, de.
stroyed the Cumberland and the Con-
gress, and was about to sink or dis.
perse the remainder of the govern
ment's wooden vessels. Anticipating
the necessity for better warships, the
government had given the contract to
Ericsson for speedy construction of q
revolving.turret iron-clad. She was
built in just 100 days and appeared at
just tho suspicious moment to stem
the tide OF battle when envious Euro
pean nations were plotting downfall of
our form of free government.

Astounding Bigotry.

The Ali-Soul's Episcopal church, at
Kansas City, ran scross an unique eX- .
pcrieuco lately when Marayan krish-
na, Brahmin missionary, was invited
to speak from their pulpit. The spirit
OF Christian liberation which inspired
the courtesy was wholly lost upon the
guest, however, who in the course of
his remarks, is reported to have said:
Were overworkcd with Christian
missionaries. Ninety per cent. OF those
we have are senseless. Furthermore,
we don't want your religion and your
holy book. We have more religion OF
our own than we know what to do with
"A surplus that we would like to export.
SO pray you Americans keep your So
called missionaries at home. II you
want to ChristianiZe us, send us men
that are qualified to teach, philosophers
that know their own scriptures. Till
then the Vedas, our four books Of phil
osophy, are good enough for us. Show
me a country where missionaries have
been that is prosperous. 1t does not
exist. There were no famnes, no plague
in India before the Flem sh invasion. |

dia, not India for England"
The mistake was made in underrat-
ing the capacity of the missionary as
well as the enthusiasm zealots always
throw into their religion, based upon
heredity and sometimes ingrained SUI
perstition. The Brahmin vedic system
is not to be despised, embracing as it
does a reliance upon natural laws that
they understand and a reverence and
respect for the mysteries OF Nature
which the wisest of our own creeds do
not pretend to explain. Their primal
tenets correspond to their Veda,
knowledge" and Scruti, "inspira-
tion." 1t is doubtless through the
same faith that smoothes the rugged
pathways of all creeds, that the Brah-
min occupies the highest caste among
the Hindus. His ssncity is supreme,

Under such conditions, it is by no
means surprising that he should have
said things that grated very harshly

LORD SHOLTO DOUGLASS is ARRESTED
FOR lord" BERESF0RD HOPE, LATE OF zion

Lord ShOlto Douglass. son of the late
marquis of Queensberry. was the victim
of mistaken identity when he was ar
rested last week at his summer cottage on
the shore of Shebago lake. Maine, for
Lord Beresford Hope, fugitive from
justice, whose personal magnetism and
taking ways still live in the memories
of several Salt Lake business men. The
description of Lord Douglass did not fit
Beresford Hope and after querying Scot
land Yard the Portland, Me-, police al
lowed their suspect to return to his wife
and son. who were living with him.
The Portland police were requested by
wire from the police of Asheville, n. c.,
to arrest a man on the shore of ShebagO
who had rented a cottage there some
time before. The Portland police went to
the lake and detained a man known at
the lake resorts as S. G. Douglass. The
-Ashevile police were notified of his ar
rest. Later a dispatch was received that
Hope. wanted in Salt Lake for forgery
lass denied being a bigamist and also a
forger.
In regard to Lord Douglass arrest a
dispatch from Portland, Me-. says:
1.-The suspect regarded the arrest hu-
morously and told the officer who called
on him that he was Lord Sholto George
Douglass With him were two persons
who, he said were Lady Douglass and
their son. So convincing was his story
that the local police notified the Ashe-
vile officers that in their opinion the
man was what he claimed to be and they
advised them to order his release. The
