The Opera House should haye

Said stairway should be not less

Wants Wages, not Wind.

The DAY is at hand when the
workingman can no longer be de-
luded by the cry of protection.
OF what possible interest can it be
to a workingman out of Job and
out of money to tell him that the
country is growing greater, gran
der and richer under tie Republi-
can policy of protection? What
he wants is work, steady work,
with enough money in his envelope
on payday to settle the necessary
bills for the support and educa-
tion of his family, and at the
same time have something left to
lay away to provide against old
age and sickness. Look around
you and see what very small
percentage of working people are
enabled to do more than plod
along, with little hope and no
provision for the future.

track and soon we, too, must fall,
and like our sister and friend

Elizabeth j. Sanner was born
June %, 1917, and died Feb "a,
1908. Aged 60 years, s months
and 1 day.
She was joined in marriage with
B. A. Woodland January %, 1874,
To this union were born chill,
dren-Sarissa H, Albert W.,
Rilla j., and Edward F., all OF
whom are living except Rilla J,
who died in early childhood.
AT the age of IS she gave her
heart to the Lord, and her hand
to the church. Through all these
years she remained loyal to the
church and faithful to her Savior.
AS long as health would permit
she attended public worship and
was ever ready to discharge her
duty and bear testimony of Him
who had so abundantly pardon ed
her transgressions.
In 1881 she became an invalid,
and for over II years was unable
to walk. Yet all this was bourne
with patience, her faith in God
ever becoming stronger, until in
1894 she began to believe that God
would heal her if called upon.
They accordingly arranged for a
meeting at the home, and their
united prayers assembled to the
throne of God, the result of which
was-Sister Woodland arose and
walked. She suffered more than
her friends knew, yet, through it
all, in her earliest desire to live
and do her full part, she battled
successfully for life until last
Monday afternoon when she fought
a losing battle as to physical re-
suits, but victorious one as to
her immortal crowning. She gave
every assurance that her cause
was safely anchored in the Savior's
care, and that Heaven to her was
certainty. She leaves husband,
three children, four grandchildren,
one brother and numerous rela-
tives and friends to mourn their
loss.

the Republican ticket nominated
by crookedness under the political
reign of George B. Cox.
Congressman Douglas two years
ago denounced the convention that
nominated him, saying he did not
approve of the methods by which
he had received the honor at their
hands. How much better was the
methods used for his nomination
Thursday of last week. The self
same perpetuated committees of
two years ago, named the dele
gates. The members of the party,
outside of the few bosses, had no
voice in the matter. The bosses
expect to name the candidates,
and the rank and file must get on
the wagon and elect them.
Editor Bush very carefully re-
views the figures, that in this dis
trict where the normal republican
majority was round the 10000
mark that two years ago Douglas
was elected over his Democratic
opponent by pa!try 1000. Editor
Bush says that Judge Wright, the
opponent of Douglas was not as
strong as he might have been.
That is true in one sense; Judge
Wright is poor man. If he had
half the finances back of him that
Albert Douglas has, he would
have been the congressman from
this district today. Couple with
the vast popularity of Judge
Wright among the rank and file of
the mass of the people regardless
of party, his oratory and ability.
and then place to his use to de-
fray the expense of literary bur.
eaus, half the "barre" opened by
Douglas, and Judge Wright will
skin him alive.
In all the history of this dis |
trict, Judge Wright came the /
nearest OF any Democrat to being
elected to congress.
Judge Wright this year is not
seeking any nominations. He ia
practicing law, and making
lying, but ii the Democratic con-
gressional convention should name
lim as their candidate again, and
ne could be induced to accept the
nomination, there will be but one
'esult and that is that the political
'areer of Congressman Douglas
will be a matter of history after
he November election.

happiness and joy, and be clothed
anew with the beautiful life of
Immortality" On Feb. 8, he was
stricken down with a mortal ILL.,
ness, and after nearly six long
weeks of suffering suffering
which was at times agOnizing-
God took compassion on him and
called him home. During all his
sickness, the long days and weary
nights, when his body was racked
with pain, no one heard him mur-
mur or complain. He was patience
perspicuous. He had learned the
great lesson of being patient
through suffering. He continually
wanted some one to read the Bible
and pray for and with him. A
couple of weeks or so before his
death it was thought one night
that he was dying, and it seemed
as though for awhile the spirit
had indeed taken its flight. But
gradually life returned, and when
he had reused up sufficiently to
speak, he called friend to his
bedside and told him he had been
to heaven. "And Oh, - he said,
while his eyes shone with a radi-
ance which was not of this world,
cit was so beautiful, | wanted to
stay" We have no comments to
make on such heavenly expert
ence; it speaks for itself.
Only the day before the final
call came, he raised himself up in
bed and looking out of the window
exclaimed, "What beautiful day
out!" And today, we who knew
him best, are confident that he is
safe at rest in the land that is
falrer than day. A short time be-
fore he had passed from death un-
TO life, friend ask him if all was
we'll between him and the Master,
eyes, yes" came the answer, It'll
was all we'll with him,
In writing this last honorary
tribu'e to the memory of my dear
friend, | would that / could tell
you how good and kind he was,
how he loved and honored his
father and mother, but words fail
me. His was a beautiful life, but
being of modest, reserved nat
ure, it was only those who were
intimately acquainted with him,
who knew and appreciated the
sterling qualities which he pos
sessed.
How his mother will miss her
boy, for he was her eldest son, her
darling boy. How often | heard |
her tell him, that If it were only !
possible, how gladly she would
bear all his pain and suffering.
But how much nearer heaven
seems to her now that she knows
her dear boy is waiting for her
over there.
Bitter and heart breaking in
deed would be the parting from
our dear ones if it were not for
the blessed hope of the eternal re-
union on the beautiful Evergreen
Shore.
