The State BoJ: of Equalization
did not change the assessment for
Alexander county as made by the local
authorities. Only six corporations Ia
the county have been assessed upon
their capital stocks by the state board.
1t seems that the board acted upon the
theory that the law which went into
effect July /, 1905. provided that ordii
nary mercantile corporations should
be exempt from capital stock assess
ment applied to the assessments for
the year 1905. The companies asses.
sed in this county are as follows:
Cairo CITY Ferry Co. ...,..$ 10000
Cairo City Gas Co. 100000
Cairo Elec. and Trac. Co.. II. 100000
Cairo Water Co, 100000

All of these assessments of CAPT
tai stock are in addition to the assess
ments made upon the tangible prop
erty of the respective companies. The
Hardwood Export company had an
office here number of years ago but

The taxes to be paid this spring

Good Resolutions.

The following resolutions were
drawn up by a committee, and
will be presented to the Mutual

Stake Board recommend them
to the consideration of all I'm

"Be it known unto all men by
there presents that we the under
signed, members of the Mutual
Improvement Association of the
Ward of Oakley, deplore the
fact that some of our boys are
departing from the principles and
teachings of the Gospel, and are
engaging in practices that are
detrimental to both health and
morals. We specify particularly,
at this time, theluse of spirituous
liquors and tobacco.
In view of the alarming increase
of these sbaneful practices, we
desire to put ourselves upon re-
cord as unequivocally opposed to
the use of liquor and tobocco
and we mutually pledge to each
other. to our association and to
our Father in Heaven.
~ That we. ourselves, shall
refrain from the use of these
things.
(2) That we shall use all our
powers and influence to induce
others to refrain form using
them, and,
(3) That we shall endeavor by
all laudable means to make there
practices unpopular among our
friends and acquaintance.

The Recitals.

Owing to delay of trains and
bad road. Prof Maud May Bah
cock was not able to reach Oak
ley on Friday evening in time to
give the recital as advertised but
gave the same on Saturday and
Monday evenings to large and
appreciative audiences. Accord
ing to the testimony of many
they were the best entertainments
of their kind that have ever been
gwen in Oakley Prof Babcock
also gave reading on Monday
afternoon for the entertainment
and instruction of the children.
Fully five hundred, ranging
from two years to fourteen were
present and were held in almost
breathless suspense for more than
an hour. 1t is safe to say the
little tots win never forget the
delights of the afternoon.
We congratulate our Stake
Academy on having secured such
a talented artist as Miss Babcock.
1t is to be hoped that other en-
tertainments of .like character
will be given from time to time
by the school They will not
only give character and strength
to the school, but they will
have an uplifting effect upon the
community.

Youths Roseate View of the
Future.
BY Justic d. J, Brewer of the u. S.
Supreme Court.

BY Justice d. j, Brewer of the u. S
Supreme Court.
1t is one of the weaknesses and
yet one of the'comforts of youth
that it does not wholly realize
the responsibilities of living.
The young look on life as
something reaching far into the
distance, rich in beautiful exper-
fences, crowned with JOY and sue
cesses. Life has itsv ast.range from
highest JOY to deepest sorrow,
and the responsibilities of living
reach IN the one direction as
much as the other.
Life is not a mere collection of
trivOlities, nor a long routine OF
moaning and sorrow but a mass
of varied experiences, each teach
ing its own lesson and together
tashion1ng the character we take
with us into the great hereafter.
Therefore, take it neither flip
PANTY nor sadly, but earnestly,
as something given to us to be
made use of both for self and
other.
1t is one of the pleasures OF
youth that its pictures of the
future are visions of beauty.
Every young man and boy
has day dreams, as we say, builds
air castles and thinks of all that
is coming as filled with joy.
He would be reluctant to disclose
there visions to others; he would
be afraid of being laughed at.
So called practical men would
smile at the folly of many of
them.

Another Pioneer Gone.

OH SATURDAY evening idSt,
March 3. Mrs. Margaret Thomas
the honored mother of Bp. d. p.
Thomas, passed peacefully into
che Great Beyond. She had
kept her usual good health all
winter, and it was not until
Saturday morning that she had
any occasion to take to her bed.
Her ripe years, and well spent
life of motherhood. pioneering
and useful service, were excuse
enough for the dear old lady to
enter into the rest which she so
richly deserved,
Mrs. Margaret Thomas was
born to Benjamin and Sarah
Phillips in Conwil Carmarthen-
shire, South Wales, June 6, 1917.
She spent her youth in her native
land where she married Richard
Morris to whom she bore four
children. Her.husband dying she
remained a widow until 1850
when she married w. c. Thomas.
AS she and her husband had
previously received the Gospel
they einigrated Immediately to
America reaching Salt Lake City
October 9th, 1850. The hard
ships and trials attending the
immigration deprived Mrs.
Thomas of four of her precious
jewels, three Morris children and
an infant, the issue of the second
marriage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas were
fairly well to do in Wales, but
they parted freely with their
means 70 the needy and to those
that were immigra ting, and vol
UNFAIRLY suffered the hardships
of the plains. They remained
but short time in Salt Lake
City, whence they moved to
Brigham City where Mr.. Thomas
built the second abode house OF
the city. In 1876 they moved
to Park Valley, Utah where they
remained for a short time, then
moving to Grouse creek where
Mrs. Thomas resided until three
years ago, when she came to
Oakley. Her husband having
died in 1884, she has made her
home with her son Bp. D. P.
Thomas. She leaves also
two daughters, Mrs. Margaret
Dunn and Mrs. Mary A Brown
of Salt Lake City.
Funeral services were held in the
stake tabernacle on Tuesday
morning at 10 O'Clock where time
ly praise worthy, the comphmen
tary remarks were made by Bp.
Toyn Of Grouse creek Bp. H. C.
Haight Pres. w. 7. Harper and
Bp. NJ 0. Funk. The stake choir
rendered the music and Prof.
Henry Otte rendered Nearer Ny
God to Thee" on the violin.
Mrs Thomas was a true and
faithful woman, and a consist
ent Latter Day Saint. She was
kindhearted and generous to a
fault. We have no fears con
cerning the future of such as she.
We extend to the good Bishop
and his family our condolences
in the loss of kind and loving
mother, faithful wife, and wo-
man Of God.

Well, one thing is sure; In all
these visions there is purity.
No young man or young woman
in his or her day dreams, in his
or her picture of the future, be-
holds life of crime or shame.
1t is to them something and
true and pure, 1t is unfortunate,
it is sad that as they grow up
into manhood and woman and
mingle in business and society,
in the tolls of the world, so many
of these bright visions pass a.
way.
In appealing to an audience of
the young in this country one
cannot but realize that he is talk :

monarchy, where there is some
hereditary ruler who manages
all the affairs ofstate, determines
the policy OF the nation, the
great masses have comparatively
little influence. But here we are
all rulers, and we who find the
silver hair coming onto our heads
know that we soon shall pass
away and the young men come
forward to work out the destiny
of the nation. There is no one

Gilbert Stuart, though celebrated
artist, was likewise n great braggart
On one occasion n great public dinner
was given to Isaac Hull by the town
Of Boston, and he was asked to SIT for
his picture to the artist
When Hull visited the studio Stuart
took great delight in entertaining him
with anecdotes of his English success,
stories Of the marquis of this and the
baroness OF that, which showed how
elegant was the society to which he
had been accustomed.
Unfortunately, in the midst OF this
grandeur, Mrs. Stuart. who did not
know that there was a sitter, came in
with apron on and her head tied up
with some handkcrchiefs, from the
kitchen. and cried out: "Do you mean

PARTY LEADERSHIP.

General Edward s. Bragg recently
said some hopeless things about the
Democratic party and some ugly
things about Wisconsin Democratic
leaders. The general was an able and
brave mana good Union soldier and
a sound Democratic statesman with
the courage OF his convictions, and
as such, and especially in his decling
years, he Is entitled to great respect
But In justice IL must be said that
much injury has come TO the party
through unreasonable jealousy dis
play by him toward the greatest Dem
ocratic leader which Wisconsin ever
produced General Bragg, himself
a brave leader, WAS too proud to fol-
low when the real leader appeared.
Democracy Is still alive and well yet
be wisely led.
