THE LATE c. w. GUNNELs.
4 Tribute That Was Read at the
Recent Memorial Services.


Recent Memorial Services.
At the recent memorial services
held at the Methodist church IN
Bronwood the following was read:
Charles Wood Gunnels was born
in Terrell county Ga, May 28, 1862,
and died at the Piedmont Sanitarium.
Atlanta, Ga, November 13, 1908.
He joined the Methodist church at
BrOnWOOd in 1885, where the cause
of the Master received his support to
the day of his death. Here he was
happily married on October 18th,
1888, to Miss Rushia Geise, who,
with three children-Willie, Martha
and Ralph-are left to mourn his
death, though not as those who have
no hope, as he left glorious evidences
and happy testimony of his accept
ance with Him who has been so much
to him during his continued illness.
He was a patient sufferer, always
bright and cheerful, even when in
great pain; a devoted husband, an
father, true friend, a
loyal citizen honored among and by
his fellowmen. He held positions Of
trust and honor in his town and
county, and was elected tax collector
of Terrell county for the years 1909
1910.
In every relation of life Brother
Gunnels was an honorable and up
right citizen, and will be greatly
missed in a large circle of acquaint-
ances and friends. His remains were
laid to rest in Cedar Hill cemetery
in Dawson, Ga, surrounded by a
large concourse of relatives and

DEATH OF MRS. j. Il. JAY.
Former Highly Esteemed Lady of
Terrell County Dies in Albany.

iCitCI NOuhty DlcS Ill Albany.
Many friends here of Mr.. and Mrs.
J. E. Jay, who were for a long num-
Der of years residents of Terrell coun-
ty, were grieved to learn of the death
Of the latter in Albany last Wednes-
day.
The remains were brought from
that city to Dawson on the Seaboard
train Thursday afternoon, and in
tered in Cedar Hill cemetery, Revs.
N. b. O'Kelley and j. A. Ivey Off
ciating at the grave. The following
produced from the Albany Herald:
Mrs. j. e. Jay died suddenly at
noon Wednesday, after an illness of
only a few days The news of her
taking away will bring sorrow to
hundreds, especially in Terrell coun-
ty, her former home.
Mrs. Jay leaves a husband and
nine children. Her husband is SUI
perintendent of Mr.. B. M. Wilson s
Farmland Dairy Farm, and it was at
the residence, two miles west of the
city, that Mrs. jays death occurred.
Mrs. Jay came to Albany with her
husband from Dawson two years ago.
Before her marriage she was Miss
Williams, and came from one of the
best families of Terrell county.
Not a better woman ever lived
is the universal expression of those
who knew Mrs. Jay best She was a
devoted mother and wife, and her
death will leave a void in the hearts
and lives of the dear ones she leaves
behind that will never be filled"

PLATFORM

To THE CHAIRMAN OF THE DEMO.
CRATIC COUNTY CONVENTION
We, Your Committee on Platform and
Resolution, report as follows:
The Democracya of Elko County
! through it's representatives, assembled
at Ellio this day, declares it's allegiance
to the time-hOnored principles Of the
Democracy Of the Nation and with
pride and satisfaction endorses and
ratifies the Charter of human rights as
proclaimed by the National Democracy
at Denver and emphasized and pro-
claimed by the State Democracy at its
recent Convention held at Tonopah.
The decla1 ations of National and
State Convention deal with problems
and define the position of the Demo
cratic Party on every live question that
vitally concerns the welfare of the
entire people, Nation and State, and
that we heartily commend these declara-
tions to the attention of the Voters of
Elko County for their approval, perusal,
study and ratification.
We congratulate the Democracy of the
Nation upon it's Standard bearer, to
give force and effect to it's great and
progressive principles, WILLIAM J.
BRYAN, the most illustrious citizen,
the ablest and most aggressive Cham
pion that the cause of human Justice
has had since the days of Jefferson and
Lincoln, and in his running mate, John
Worth Kern, the Democracy has an
ideal representative of these principles.
With qualification, we point to the
complete work of the Democratic Con-
vention of Tonopah in nominating
candidates of honor, repute, service and
capacity that fit it's splendid declara-
tiOn of principles where true freedoms
cause leads and under which mans
rightful opportunity will never be
abridged.
We rejoice in the unanimous selection
by the Tonopah Convention Of HON.
FRANCIS G.. NEWLANDS for the
United States Senate, a representative
of great force, whose championship of
Democracy and soundness in constructive
legislation is not equalled or paralleled
by any other statesman in the upper
branch of the Nations Congress, whose
Reclamation and Inland waterway pro-
iects are the scope of National Applica-
tion and Legislation, through which the
sons and sons of man will until time is
no more, by thrift and enterprise and
toll secure those rewards that ever make
the good citizen, the prosperous com
munity and the nobility that is true to
the welfare or NatlOn. we earnestly
commend the career and service of
Francis e. Newlands to the thoughtful
attention of the Voters of Elko County,
and upon this high and useful service,
we earnestly invoke their united support
for this great Statesman.
For Congress, the Party has honored
the People with the selection of Hon.
Geo. A. Bartlett, a sterling son Of abil-
ity, man of integrity and whose honor
and fidelity to the interests of the State
is not surpassed by that Of any other
citizen in Nevada, and whose record in
Congress has been able, fearless, and
with an influence for salutory legisla-
tion as First Termer, never surpassed.

James HALEY. one of the trus-
tees, stated that at a meeting OF the
trustees 1t was decided that they
would act only on the condition that
all claims go into the pool on q par
and that there be no preferred
claims. Otherwise, he stated, that
the trustees agreed upon would de-
cline to serve.
Chairman Wood stated that he had
every reason to believe that the Bur-
lington, with their claim of $4,000,
and the Colorado Fuel & Iron Com
pany. with its claim OF about $4,000,
would participate in the deal and
take stock for their claims. Mr..
Wood paid tribute to Charles d.
Crouch, builder and former presi-
dent of the road, for what he did
for Rapid City in his untiring work
for the line.
Upon the call of the roll of those
present, every one agreed to assign
his claim to the trustees and then
take stock IN the new company In
return. The board Of trustees was
empowered to proceed with the legal
organization of the company and to
appoint the first board of directors.
An opportunity will be given every
receivership creditor to go into the
pool and when all have been heard
from Receiver Bailey will petition
the court for new order of sale
which will permit the creditors to
bid in the property. The fact that
majority of the claims have been
pooled assures the organization of
the company and makes it certain
that If any railroad or outside cor
poration buys the Crouch Lines at
the next offer of sale the price paid
will be more than the receivership
