man, a loyal church man, a leader
in the cause of righteousness,
one of Gods noblemen-such was
l. Jay Cummings. He passed
away as he lived, triumphantly.
His eyes closed peacefully in
their last sleep. He met death
with a heavenly smile upon his
face, and thus DER death was
cOnqueror. His influence is an
abiding one, in memory he still
lives.
Life, we've been long together,
Through pleasant and through cloudy
weather;
lis hard to part when friends are dear,
Perhaps twill cost a sigh, tear;
Then steal away, give little warning,
Choose thine own time;

brighter cline
Bid me Good Morning"

Haskelrs association with the

by democratic candidates and

created in Michigan by republi-
can administrations, why is re-
ference not also made TO the re-
ceipts and income of our state

ment of state affairs the receipts
have been enlarged MANIFOLD.
There is hardly county in
Michigan which does not at this
time receive more money from
the state treasury than the state
treasury receives from the coun-
ty. This result was brought
about by republican legislation,
but there is not the slightest
reference made to it in demo
cratic speeches or democratic
newspaper statements. 1t will
not be claimed, of course, that
mistakes have not been made in
state affairs or that criticisms in
some directions cannot justly
apply, but it will be claimed that
no other state in our entire coun-
try can compare with Michigan
in its accomplishments for the
people and in the increase of its
income as compared with it's ex-
penditures.

1. Jay Cummings.

Whole in himself"
Lord Lytton wrote this detini
ton for such a man as | Jay
Cummings Mr.. Cummings was the
great man of Paw Paw. He
loved Paw Paw and Paw Paw
loved him. 1t is hard to see him
who "fought thousand glorious
wars and more than half the
world was his, conquered at
last by Death, he, who never
knew defeat. He was a warrior
in the time of peace. No martial
music stirred his blood; no cheer

Cummings fought well when there

He was a great man because
she served a greatness not his
own, for neither praise nor pelf;

was unconscious greatness. He
cared not for his own greatness;
he fought for the greatness of
others. He thought more of the
interests and welfare of Paw
Paw than he did for his own in
terests. He fought neither for
praise nor pelf. What cared he
for praise? The question with
him was not What do men
say?" "What do others Think"
SIS this the popular side?" but
rather, "Is this right" "Is this
for the best interest of all?"
And because he stood for the
right as be saw the right, men
admired his courage and called
him great. Pelf, sordid gain
never influenced him; never did
Mr.. Cummings weigh affairs with
an eye to dollars and cents, with
him righteousness came before
trade, humanity before custom
ers.
He was whole in HIMSELF" a
complete man, a full-orbed man.
He was like the oak, strong in
his independence. His character
was Of the granite kind. He
early learned the lessons of self
reliance, industry, faithfulness,
honesty, economy, perseverance;
he was thinker, an independ-
ent thinker; he had convictions
and strong ones; he formed his
own opinions and worked out his
own conclusions. Born among
the stone quarries of Vermont. he
seemingly imbibed the granite in
his thinking, in his living, in his
being. If "the great man is he
who chooses right with the most
invincible resolution; who resists
the sorest temptation from with

heaviest burdens cheerfully; who
is calmest in storms and most
fearless under menaces and
frowns; whose reliance on truth,

THE FRONT PORCH
VS.. THE PULLMAN PLATFORM

1t is estimated that. during his
campaign for the presidency, Mr..
Taft travelled something like $4,000
miles. visiting. most of the states of
the Union. Mr. Bryan travelled even
more. and the candidates of the
minor parties we're by no means idle.
Mr.. Debs' red special visited many
states. and Mr.. Hearst and Mr. His
gen travelled thousands of miles
spreading their message, while Mr.
Chafin's railroad mileage was not in
considerable.
1t is evident that the old fashioned
front porch" campaign has given
way to this newer and more spec
tacular form of campaigning, which
Mr.. Bryan started in 1886. plea
is made for the front porch on the
ground of dignity, but, after all, the
Pullman car platform is not without
its value. 1t brings the candidate in
close touch with the people in all
parts of the country, and, with all
the candidates swinging round the
circle it precludes the possibility of
electing president who has not

FUNERAL
DR.. WELLES

Hundreds of friends gathered
yesterday afternoon to pay
last tribute of love and respect
to the memory of DIR. Frederick
ii. Welles, the well known ply
sician who died in Denver. The
funeral was one of the largest
attended in the history of the
city.
Private services were held at
the home and then the remains
were escorted to the Presbyter-
ian church which was filled to
Overlooking with friends of the
deceased.
The services at the church were
very beautiful and impressive. Rev.
ID. Luther Edwards, pastor of the
church, conducted the services. His
tiful tribute to the character and
worth of the departed. Will A.
House. general secretary of the
Young Mems Christian Association
of this city, spoke briefly with ref
erence to DR.. Welles' work as presi-
dent of the Y. NJ. c. A and his loyalty
to that organization. There were
several lovely musical numbers of a
most sacred nature.
Members of the Mesa County Med
ical Society and members of the
board of directors of the Y. NJ. C. A.
attended the services in body.
The pail bearers were chosen from
the medical society, the Y. NJ. c. A.
directorate and the official board of
the Presbyterian church. They were
DR.. G. r. Warner. DR.. j. II. Smith,
DR.. A. G. Taylor, II. f. Vorbeck. b. J..
Neff and j. II. Rankin.
The floral offerings were magni-
ficent and many in number An
automobile, filled with lovely flow
ers, preceded the cortege to the ceme-
terry and the floral pieces were ar
ranged in simple but elegant beauty
around the grave.
The funeral cortege was made up
of more than three score of vehicles
as it moved from the church to the
cemetery.
Undertaken Krohn had charge of
the funeral and interment.
The large attendance at the fun
eral and the many tributes paid to
the deceased, indicated plainly the
high esteem in which DIR. Welles was
held by those who knew him.
