Death of Mr.. J. II. Kibler.

1t seems as if one sadness follows
another. We hardly have time from
taking up our pen in noting the death
Of enc Of our good old friends, until
news comes that another one is dead.
This entire community was struck
with sadness when the news came
last Saturday evening that Mr.. J. ii.
kibler was dead. He died at his
home near Beth Eden Church on
Saturday last at l o'clock.
Mr.. !. II. Kibler was sixty-seven
years, four months and nineteen days
of age. This bids farewell to another
one of our good old veterans. Mr..
KibIer was born and raised in this
community. He lived as my near
nci2hbcr I'll my life with the cxcep-
tion of four years, which he spent
in the cruel war until five years ago,
he moved to the Long Lane commun-
ity where he has since lived until his
death. Mr. Kibler was not only Al
good and true soldier Of The war, but
Nv "t'S "ic' a. SS'oNt liz vas
always jovial and endowed with such
qualities as caused all those who knew
him to love him. In his death the
home in left vacancy that can't be
filled. The wife and children, IL
friend above all other friends. While
we mourn with the bereaved family,
we commend them to the mercies or
God, whose ways are not our ways,
and who doeth all things we'll. We
must remember this world is not om
home. John says this corruptible
must put on interruption and this
mortal must put on Immortality. All
these living things on earth, which
know us now, will soon know us no
more forever
The deceased has been member Of
st. Pauls Lutheran church since his
boyhood and his body was laid to
rest on Sunday following his death
in the burying ground of his old
mother church in the presence Of IL
large congregation. Rev. J. A. Sigh

Springfield. H.. May S.--Attorney
General Stead yesterday rendered an
opinion interpreting the law In rela-
ton TO the taxation of the Illinois Cen
trail Railroad Company's property. in
which he holds that the company must
pay taxes on some $S0.000,O00 In stock
and $4,000. 900 of bonds on which the
railway company claimed exemption
on the grounds that the stocks are deb
It's and should be deducted from tho
credits of the road
He also holds that the taxes of the
company should be extended against
the equaliZcd valuation OF the com
pany's property instead of against the
full value and says the company is en-
titled to credits on all bona fde debts.
altho not to all the credits that are
claimed by the company.
Under the attorney generals ruling
the I per cent of It's gross income
which the railroad has been paying In
to the state treasury is all that should
be paid into the state The new inter-
probation OF the charter under which
the road exists provides for payment
of S percent of the gross earnings OF
the road, together with the proper
taxes. into the state treasury, with the
stipulation that If these two sums do
not aggregate Z per cent of the revenue
of the road then the company shall pay
over to the state an additional amount
so that the aggregate shall equal per
cent of its earnings.

A BAD DEAL IN LYON.
McMillan's Attempt at Snap Caucuses
is Frustrated.

Rock Rapids, May S.-The story has
Just leaked out here how Ill. c. Nc
MILAN, standpat owner of the Cedar
Rapids Republican, attempted to carry
a snap caucus in Garfield township
last Tuesday preceding the county con-
vention. The caucus was set for Tues
day evening and Tuesday morning Mr..
Mcmillan arrived in Lyon county to
visit his farms. Joe Klespees, chair
man of the Garfield township commit
tee. anticipated the move and went to
the school house where the meeting
was called to prepare. He nailed all
the windows firmly down on the in
side, locked and bolted the door and
took UP his watch in a house across
the road. All day he held guard and
his antlclpations proved right when
about an hour before the time set for
the caucus, III. G.. Mcmillan with seven
teen farmers appeared and demanded
that he call the caucus to order. He
refused. His position was impregna-
bile and he persisted in waiting until
the exact hour when the caucus was
called. BY that time representative
gathering of farmers had assembled.
and Mr.. McMillans following proved so
much in the minority that a delegation
instructed for Cumlnns was selected
to the county convention here next day

Linn county will probably instruct
