The funeral services of Mrs.

dayP. NJ by her pastor assisted b,
Rev. Geo. L Thomas. Another
good woman gone 70 rest. she
had reached the allotted time of

human judgement can discern
that time from her early life had
been spent in serving her gene
ration according to the will of
Gcd. She is survived by hus-
band and seven children all mar
red except the youngest, all of
whom are consistent christians.
All how sweet it will be in that
beautiful land,
SO free from all sorrow and

Court Day at GIouces-
ter G. Fl.

Probably the extreme heat was
responsible for the small crowd
at Gloucester. on Monday. In
spite of this fact, however, bust
ness was brisk and the usual bus
tie, of hucksters, horse traders.
etc, was heard on all sides.
There was also a number of news
paper men on hand who naturally
made things lively. The docket
was full of cases both criminal
and civil but on account of the
speaking little work was done in
that line.
Immediately after dinner a
crowd assembled in the Court
House and were addressed by
Mayor Stubs, who discussed at
some length the constitutional
amendments to be voted on this
fall and and their Importance. He
then introduced Hon. w. A.
Jones, who was enthusiastically
greeted by his audience. Me.
Jones expressed himself as very
grateful to the people for their
support during his tenure of office
and proceeded TO make a rousing
campaign speech in which he
scored the Republican Party for
its shortcomings and prophesied a
great Democratic victory this fall.
At the conclusion of his speech
the business of the Court was re-
slmed and most of the crowd
made tracks for home.
The Mathews journal. (Mathews C.H. [Court House]) 1903-1937, 1910-09-08

The four constitutional
amendments to be voted on at
the election this fall are impOr-
;tant and should receive the care
full attention and study OF each
voter. Between now and the ell
ection the gentlemen who aspire
to political prominence should en-
deavOr to aid the voters by dis
cussing the amendments, pro and
con, in public addresses. The
Editor Of the Journal will discuss
them fully in next weeks issue
and try to the best Of his ability
TO point out the good points an d
the week points of each. Our
columns are open to the discus
zion of this or any other impor-
tant subject, at any time.

We are glad to see that the
people of the Second District
have at last been aroused TO in
hgnation by the rOttenness Of the
political machine which apparent
ly has charge there. That this
feeling is now prevalentNis evil
.denced by the mass meetings re-
Gently held and by the storm Of
protest that has arisen over the
result Of the late congressional
primary, For the long existence
of these evils the people are
themselves responsible, because
they had it III their power to
eliminate them at any time.
There are enough good people in
the Second District to vote out
these political bosses and while
they are about it we trust they
will make a clean sweep. The
present primary system is also
largely responsible for these con-
dltians. The people all over the
State should fight for a legalized
primary, SO that all possibility of
fraud may be eliminated.

On August 18TH. 1910, Mrs.
May Snow, babe farewell to all
things earthly and took her flight
for her home beyond the skies
All that loving hearts and willing
hands could do, was done to stay
the grim messenger of death, but
nay, she had indeed fought a
good fight, had finished her course
and was ready for her departure.
Mrs. Snow for many wears had
been consistent and noble mem
Der of the Methodist church, and,
not only was she a member Of
the church but knew what it
meant to die to the world and be
born of the spirit. She loved her
church. she loved Gods people
and nothing gave her more
pleasure than to entertain Gods
servants in her home. But now
that home is oh, so lonely. because
vile and mother is not there. her
kind and gentle voice is stilled
forever, her sweet and smiling
face has gone from our view.
But dear loved ones, weep not as
those without hope, look not up
on the silent tomb as her resting
place. She IS net there, but has
gone to that beautiful home OF
the souls, where NO farewell tears
are shed. She is wearing the
crown of righteousness that she
SO nObly won, Dear husband
cheer up, she has only gone Oh
before, to await your coming
Chi dren initiate her beautiful
example. follow her footsteps a,
she followed those Of Jesus. and
and one glad day there will be a
grand reunion around God
throne. when loved ones meet to
part no more.
Mother is gone but not forgotten,
Never Will her memory fade.
Sweetest thoughts shall ever
linger,
Around the gave where she is laid.
1t was hard indeed to give you up
We loved YOU all to well.
While we are drinking sorrows
cup,
Happy with the saints you dwell.
The earthly home You made so
bright,
Is now so drear and lonely.
All seems still as stillest night.
Since you from it have gone.

California City will throw open it's
hospitable portals on the fourth floor
of Hale Bros building next Thursday
when Governor Gillett and Mayor P
H. Mccarthy will give opening ad-

liant knights of the court will be given
the keys and freedom of the miniature
city.
Arrangements are rapidly taking

Many demonstrations of the making of

ter known.
Many of the exhibitors are preparing
to give out samples of their goods to
the throngs that visit California City.
The city is to represent this state in
it's manufacturing capacity. 1t is the
first organized effort of the California
manufacturers to get back their mar
ket, which, since the 1906 fire, has fall
len off more than 70 per cent, with a
corresponding decrease in the number
of factories and men employed.
