Lewis Hunter died at the family
rooms in the Schmidt building at 1880
this afternoon following a lingering
illness with appendicitis. Ever since
last Saturday his condition had been
very critical, but on Tuesday he rail-
lied somewhat. Yesterday, however,
he was taken worse again and this
forenoon he was reported to be in a
dying condition. Consequently there
was but little surprise at the an
nouncement of his death this after
noon.
The deceased was native of Can
ada and had lived in Idaho for many
years before coming to this city. At
Kendrick, Idaho, he was engaged in
the cold storage and warehouse bus
iness for many years. Three years
ago he came to Pendleton and bought
the furniture business of Joseph Bas-
Ter. His immediate family here con-
sists of his wife and one child. lit
tie boy He was one of eight broth
ers and of them three have been a:
his bedside during the latter part o.
his illness. One of the brothers, DR.
| Hunter. of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, ma!
been assisting in the medical care o
the afflicted man.
As a business man and citizen Mr.
Hunter was highly regarded by al
who knew him, for he was honorable
and conscientious in all of his deal
ings. He is said to have left hos
of friends in Idaho and during tn
time he lived in this city he was gen
orally esteemed. He was a membe
of the Masonic order and also of tn
knights of Pythias, in both of whicl
he took an earnest interest. The 10
cal lodges of the two orders name'
will assist in the arrangements for tn
funeral.
Exact funeral arrangements hav
not yet been made, but 1t Is the In
tention to ship the remains to Lewis
ton, Idaho, or to Charleston, Wash
for interment.

The former plan is often most unjust,
while the latter would be just to all
because Just to each taxpayer.
Lastly, 1t may be said that as the
levies are already laid, the amount Of
tax produced would be too great. But
too great for what? Certainly not
too great to reduce the old debt, and,
II possible, wipe It out. If the poor
man, who has been deprived of his
5000 exemption. pays his share toward
the extinction of the debt, he will
certainly not complain II the wealthy
man pays his. and makes the debt
that much less. And the wealthy man
surely has no right to kick, for even
in his own heart he must recognize
the justice and wisdom of It. The
latter has doubtless complained in the
past mostly because he had reason to
fear that his wealthy neighbor,. his
competitor in business. would escape.
So he felt justified In trying to do so

GOVERNMENT PULLS OUT.
Reclamation VIII be Managed by the
State OF Montana.

DETERMINATIONS Will De MdnaSeu Dy the
State OF Montana.
Helena, Mont, Aug. 22.-The gov
ernment will no longer interfere with
the reclamation Of land on the Dear
born river. in the northern part OF
this county, under the Carey act. No
tfication OF the abandonment of pro-
ceedings to cancel patent has been
received by Governor Toole from the
commissioner of the general land Of
flee. In the letter the commissioner
states that the government is sat
isfied of the good faith of the state
In the matter; that the secretary of
the interior took the matter up with
the reclamation officials and they in
terposed no objection to allowing the
state to proceed with the work.
A number of years ago the Ames
Realty company of st. Louis con-
tracted with the state to reclaim land
on the Dearborn under the terms of
the Carey act. The work was started
and several miles of the main canal
completed, when it was found that
the irrigated land could not be sold
for enough to pay the cost of con-
structing the works, and so the work
was abandoned. The government
had already issued patent to the state
for several thousand acres when work
was stopped, and then proceedings
were brought to again vest title in the
government on the ground that patent
had been obtained by fraud.
F. Now that the work has been start
ed again and 1t Is the intention of the
state to have the work finished, the
government has dropped the matter
and will no longer hinder the work.

number dwindled in consequence Of the

Young Millionaire Cruik-

only 10, has been cutting a wide swath
in Pittsburg, and when he went to
New York every month or so he gave
the frequenters of the Great White
Way something to talk about.
All this angered his father and he
decided that the best place for young
Zach was the farm, where he would be
away from the designing feminine in
f1uence.
Three weeks ago Zach was sent to
one of his fathers farms near Mill
wood Mich, where pickles and cab
bages are raised. and the young man
was made manager of the farm. This
morning zach'sp father received a tele-
gram which merely read:
Am married. Zach
1t was a couple of hours before the
young man could be reached by long
distance telephone. Then it was as
certained that all that Zach had said
was true Last Saturday he became
the husband of Miss Laura Childs, a
very estimable young woman of Mill
wood, and the daughter of a prosperous
merchant there They had been ac-
quainted just two weeks.
There was a long talk over the phone
in which the young man was forgiven.

CATARRH IS DURABLE.
Experiments in Abating and
Curing This Disease.

Catarrh is an entirely unnecessary
disease and should not be tolerated for
d single day now that Hyomei is so
generally known and has made so many
cures in Hammond and other towns.
Until comparatively recent times ca
tarrh was thought to be a blood disease
and stomach dosing the only treatment.
Modern science finally disproved this
Idea Of the cause of catarrh, and found
that it was a germ disease and, after
many experiments, the remedy was de-
cided to be Hyomei
Hyomei medicates the air you
breathe; it kills the catarrhal germs; it
heals the smarting and raw mem
branes of the passages in the nose and
throat; it cures all catarrhal troubles.
As there is life and health in the air
in the mountainous where the pine
forests give off their fragrant and heal
ing balsams, so there is life and health
in breathing Hyomei. There is no need
Of suffering from catarrh if the simple
and natural treatment of Hyomei is
used.
Sc sure is this prescription to cure
even the worst cases of catarrh, that
