OBITU AIRY
JACOB ]. ROBBINS.

y
The Plattsburgh Sentinel of Friday
last has the following obituary on the
late ]. ]. Robbins, which will be of inter
est to many of our readers -
Jacob !. Robbins was born in 1913, in
the town of Craftsbury, VT, where he
spent his boyhood days, securing his ed.
ucation in the old Craftsbury Academy
In leaving school he was employed as
clerk in the general store of Mr.. Bundy,
at Wolcott, Vt.
At the breaking out of the War of the
Rebellion he was enthused with patriot
ism and enlisted in the service of his
country as a member of the 9th Vermont
Vols. Soon after his return from the war
he was united in marriage with Miss
Isabelle Noyes of Wolcott, VT, to whom
was born three sons, William N, Cor
rolto p. and Ned w. Removing to Barre
VT, he again took up his former vocation
as clerk in a general store. A few years
later he returned to Wolcott, Vt, to enter
into business with w. S. Moves, under the
firm name of Noyes & Robbins. He was
appointed postmaster, and served for
many years in that capacity After the
death of his wife he closed out his bust
ness and took up the work of travelling
salesman for Field & Thayer of New York,
and afterward with the Warren Boot &
Shoe Co. of Boston.
In 1887, he was united in marriages to
Miss Mary E. Cushman of Ellenburgh,
N. Y, and settled in business at Johnson,
VT, in the hotel and livery, with his
brother, A. D. Robbins.
A few years later he purchased the
hotel at Mooers, N. Y, known as the
Commercial Hotel; afterwards named
the Phoenix House, and by his genial
manner and faithful service soon gained
with the travelling public and
citizens of his new home town. On Nav
9TH, 1904, he suffered a severe shock of
paralysis, which so impaired his health
that he was compelled to retire from
active business. .ra.
Mr.. Robbins was man of many ster- |
ling qualities; he was faithful and con-
sistent friend. true to his vows and trust |
worthy in all his dealings. A few years |
ago the great love of the Savior reached |
down and touched his heart, and he be- |
came reconciled to the will of the Re-
deemer of mankind, thus in the closing
years 1of his life he walked consistently
in the sight of his Master. Wednesday,
March 31st, at midday, he was again
stricken with paralysis and remained un-
until midnight Saturday fol- I
lowing when he passed away Il
He leaves wife, three sons, many rela- J.
lives and large circle of friends, who /
eel the loss of faithful husband d kind
ather and a true friend.
A service was held at the house on
Monday forenoon, conducted by the Rev.
A.. P. Leonard of the Wesleyan Metho-
list church, after which the family with
he remains were escorted to the RAILROAD
station by members of Mount Horeb /
lodge, F. & A. M, of which he was a
and a large delegation of citi-
ems, as the remains were borne away to
VT, where further services
md interment took place on Tuesday.

Too many merchants In the smaller
town of Vermont allow themselves to be
frightened by the bugaboo of catalog
competition by the big mail order houses
Intelligent advertising, study of the
sort of stuff sent out by the outsider who
pays no taxes and steady campaign of
education on quality. would soon place
the home merchant beyond the fear of
catalog competition. He has all the argu-
ment on his side and the home paper is
the place to set it forth specifically -Rut-

High Water Causes DAMAGE

High water has caused considerable
damage in various parts of the state,
At Stowe the showers raised the
streams rapidly and Wednesday night
| the force Of the water carried out about
| 10 feet of the dam across the Waterbury
river at the lower village belonging to
| P. D. Pike 81 Son. Messrs. Pike have
about l,5O0, 600 feet of logs piled up on
| the banks of the river and were about
ready to start their butter package
factory which, with the sawmill, gives
employment to about thirty men. The
colder weather Thursday checked the
rise Of water and operations for rebuild.
| ing the dam were at once begun and it has
been temporarily repaired. $500 will pro.
badly cover the damage. The dam was
put in fourteen years ago end was Of
plank.
High water disabled the Bethel Electric
Light IL Powers Co.'s plant Wedne, day
night by carrying away the t'mbers which
supported an iron rack in the raceway.
Lights for the business section have since
been furnished by the Cushing steam
plant. The Bethel company's plant. it is
expected, will be in running order in a
few days. the same night the wind
snapped off two-foot maple tree, partly
dycdyed, and the tree, falling across
several of the Electric Company's wires,
broke them. This alone would have de-
pryed the lower part of the lage of
lights. Boarders at both l Bethel
hotels during the high wind 4e uesday
night were awakened by the windows of
their rooms being broken by slamming
shutters. The roof of w. A. Roots
wood shed was blown off.
Bolton has suffered from freshet dur
ing the past few days. Two bridges were
washed away and several houses sur
rounded by water.

up its work last week Its most import

which it excelled Vermont. This state

been for the action of the House which

had passed the Senate. The Concord

kept" sums up the work of its Legis'a-
ture as follows: - II
To its action New Hampshire is in
debted for a direct primary law, the
first of its kind in state wide scope in the !

sions than the federal law or the law of

While on his sanitary crusade on the

Smith of the Board of Health investi-
gated both food and water supplies. He
found an intolerable condition of things
IN three large poi factories in the Wal
pic Valley, two of them conducted by
Japanese and one by a Hawaiian.
In these cases the staple food of the
natives and favored pabulum OF many
others was fade in dirty shacks partly
used as stables. These factories sup
ply poi all along the Hamakua coast,
the district of Waimea and even as far
inland as the Volcano House.
President Mott-Smith ordered the
abandonment of the filthy buildings
and the erection instead of structures
apart from stables or other objection

crete floors and a pure water supply

THE LAND QUESTION

EDITOR STAR:-The Star is right
of Real Estate in this Territory" The
provisions of the Act of Congress,
approved March 3rd, 1887. should be
re-enacted, at least, so far as Hawaii
is concerned. That Act covers all
real estate, both public and private;
both corporate and individual. No
other plan would be effective in Ha-
wall, and this provision ought to be
incorporated in section 80 Of the Or
ganic Act, but not in the public land
section at all. 1t is then clear that
as soon as a homesteader obtains his
patent his land Immediately comes
under the prohibition of selling to an
alien the same as all other lands IN
the Territory. That is the kind OF
legislation proposed in the Democrats
Memorial to Secretary CARRIED, ~
though incidentally connected with a
request for a new homestead law
embodying the same principle. The
memorial could not then, and l can
not now, go into detail; but this
phase of real estate ownership is an
issue in this Territory which has
come TO stay until it is settled right.
have no idea that it will be even
intelligently handled in the special
session and it is very clear that it
was not so handled in the governors
conference with leaders of the Re-
publican party.
This is not necessarily a political
issue only as it will be made such by
the attitude of the local parties to-
ward the proper solution of the land
question in this Territory. When I
say Land Question" I do not con-
fine it TO the public land alone. There
are other land questions as serious,
If not more serious, than those relat-
ing to the public land However, the
questions relating to the public land
have the floor at present and all dis
cussions at present should be confin-
ed to that subject.
1t does nat follow that the concur
rent resolution, with proposed home
stead law attached, introduced by
Senator Mccarthy IN the last session
of the Legislature, is necessarily COM
