took place on Monday afternoon. AL
though it was not expected. when the
news was sent out by the bereaved
family that fatherssis gone" it cast a
sadness throughout the entire COM
munity, where this respected citizen
and pioneer was SO we'll known. Mr..
Bloom had been sufferer with the
ailment that terminated in his death
for some time, and this conquered
all medical skill and care. The de-
ceased was born in Sw eden June 10,
1853, and with parents came to Amer
lea in 1871 locating at DeKalb, ILL,
from where he moved into this neigh
borhood in 1881. locating on the home
stead north of town where he died.
In 1876 he united in marriage with his
surviving wife and their union was
blessed with the now mourning and
fatherless children: Esther and
Alice, Claus, Axel and ALVEY. all
being at his bedside during his last
moments with the exception Of Claus,
who is located in Dakota, and who
was unable to get home. The funeral
was held on Wednesday afternoon. A
short service was held from the home
after which the remains were taken
to the Bethel Lutheran church, when
the funera! service was held conducted
by Rev. j. A. Christianson. Inter-
ment was made at the Lutheran ceme-
terry. Mr.. Bloom leaves q vacant
place in the home that can never
be filled and also in the community,
as he was splendid neighbor and
citizen and had the confidence and
respect Of all.
The Sunday School at the Free
Mission church gathered at the church
and parsonage Saturday afternoon
together with parents and a few
friends. A short program at the
church was attentively listened to
which consisted Of singing. bible
reading and an interesting short SER
mon by Rev. Alfred Weberg of Ceres
co Refreshments were served at the
parsonage. A luncheon and cone Of
ice cream was treated to every person
present and for every child an orange
was added. A very enjoyable and
most social afternoon was spent and
every thing was carried out in an or
derby and quiet manner, The Sunday
School feels indebted to those who so
interestingly assisted in the affair.

Sioux City arrived last week to enjoy

YOUNG MUSICALE
4 GREAT SUCCESS

| The musicale given at the Young Ho-
tel last evening in the lounging room
was the first of series which is prom
ised for the winter and spring season.
The entertainment was of a high or.
der and was attended by the guests of
the Young, Moana and Hawaiian Ho-
tells, and many townsfolk. The pro-
gram, while long as to numbers, was
| happily brief in time, and each mum.
Der was not only received with ap.
plause, but eneores We're called for.
Many of the local amateur favorites
were on the program which included
vocal and piano selections and some
fancy dancing. Mr. Henry Clark. one
of Hugo Herzer' s most promising pu-
| pills sang the opening solo and re-
sponded to an encore. His tenor voice
was heard to the best advantage in the
pieces he selected, and he also sang the
concluding number. His voice has a
pleasing quality. Miss Helen Center,
| in Scotch costume. danced prettily in
| the always picturesque sword dance.
Her little sister gave a dainty exhibit
ton of buck and wing dancing to the
tune of Dixie, the Accompaniment being
| played by Mrs. Frank Vlerra. Mr..
| Caceres gave a piano selection, playing
the Pilgrim S Chorus in a mastery
manner Miss Jean Center was sur
prise not only to the strangers, but to
townsfolk as well, because of her beau
tiful voice, which was heard to advant-
| age in a selection just suited to her.
| Clarence Waterman sang solo in a
| pleasing manner and Miss Helen
Sprinks gave recitation and mono
| logue that were catchy. Mr.. Ernest
Kaai and a pupil gave a ukulele duet.
| The entertainment was followed by
dance in the makai pavilion.

Baldwin won the American Derby
four times with Emperor of Norfolk,

nexed fifteen stakes out of twenty five

East had new idea of the worth OF

He was at times a sensational bettor
and big one, his biggest harvest be

also for having in his employ Isaac
Murphy, considered one of the best
jockeys in the country.
He bought the Santa Anita ranel

years ago took up the project of open

Forester Hosmer stated that one OF
the questions of the hour was that OF
preserving the Hawaiian forests, nee
essary for covering for the watersheds
and eatchment basins. There were
two classes of forests here, the one
most valuable for watershed covering,
che other for commercial uses as tim-
Der. Now the forest reserves contain
ed 440.i16 acres, but the reserves
must be extended to take in eventual
ly three quarters of million acres.
s.The relation of forest to stream IS
the essential feature of Hawaiian for
estry,,' said Mr. Hosmer, who con-
eluded by stating that ''there is no
way to more intelligently develop the
country than by applying conserva-
ton principles to our forests.
Jared G. Smith gave figures to show
the enormous waste in the rain falling
in some districts. in Kona the amount
being last year some four hundred
thousand million gallons, of which only
an,A-t tenth of one per cent. was storet
and utilized. "The Territory has
hole in its money pocket, the vital re
sources of the Territory are pein'
lost. The Legislature must find tn
hole and mend it and stop the loss,
he said.
Judge Dole spoke briefly, Stain
that he recession of the forest lin
from the sea coast was most notleeani

ing of money on reforestation and tn
preservation of the existing forests

alton among the producers, the small
men becoming big men if they unite1.
Senator Smith was the last speaker,
stating that this Territory would have
to develop some industry with a

sugar, should the time ever come when
sugar could not be depended upon to
bring prosperity to the country.

Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1909-12-23

Sheriff Marion Nolen spent Sat-
urday night in Shelbina. The Mon
roe county sheriff was not here on
business nor yet was he making a
social call in the metropolis of
Shelby county. The fact is, Mr..
Nolen got turned around and drove
due north instead of south, landing
in Shelbina when he expected to
get to Paris to spend the night. It's
a case of irresistible attraction.
When a man gets within five or six
miles of Shelbina he is drawn to-
ward this live town as if by a mag
net. We hope Mr. Nolen found his
accidental visit so pleasant that he
will repeat it with malice afore-
thought - Democrat.

New York, Dec. 16.-Arbuckle |
Brothers, the largest independent
rivals of the American Sugar Re-
filming Co., have acknowledged that
from 1898 to 1907 they, too, failed
to pay to the government all the
money due as customs charges on
imported sugar. In settlement of
all civil claims against them the
Arbuckles have offered and the
treasury department, with the con-
Currence of the attorney general has
accepted payment of $695,573. But
criminal prosecution of these re-
sponsible will in no wise be ham,
pered or conditioned by this ac-
Ceptance.

La Toilette Talks.

1t is refreshing for a real United
States senator "a Republican sena-
tor from the Republican state OF
Wisconsin to tell the people in
plain English the real condition OF
things in Washington under Repub-
lican rule. Here is what Senator
LaFollette, in his own newspaper
in leading editorial, says:
"As this is written congress is
about to meet again in regular seS-
sion. Once more the national capt.
tol will become the chief battle
ground of the great political contest
now being waged throughout the
nation for control of the Republi-
can party. And seldom has there
been a contest with so much at
stake. Not only will its outcome
determine the fate of the progress
i've legislation the people are de-
manding so insistently, but it may
even change for years to come the
character of our political institu-
tons. 1t means progress or reac-
ton; advance or stagnation; the
rule of privileged interests OF the
reign of the people.
Many measures of great import
ance will be presented to congress
for enactment into law. But over
shadowine all these in immediate
Importance is the issue: Shall the
will of Special Interests continue to
prevail in national legislation, or
shall it be the will of the people?
This is the pressing question, for I'M
til it is answered it is useless to
look for any fulfillment of party
promises. Aldrich is still Boss OF
the Senate" Cannon is still Gear
of the House" And with these
men in control of the Republican
organization in congress, with the
committees packed with their faith
full henchmen, with the business OF
legislation engineered to suit their
purposes, there can be no measures
enacted into law without the sane
ton of these two men. And we
need only look back as far as the
tariff session to determine what
kind of legislation will receive the
approval of the Middle West to tell
where he will stand. Any bill that
threatens Privilege, that is not
framed on the theory of the divine
..idht nfthe Dollar to rule that is
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1909-12-23

that is meant to keep the faith with
the voters-any such bill will find
quiet but speedy interment in the
burial ground that already holds so
many of its kind.
1T is the presidents duty to rec
ommend. But Aldrich and Can
non are there to command. If the
senators and representatives who
have in the past Surrended their
voices and votes to these two men
should refuse to obey the command
the machine would be broken. But
will they do it?"
