native of tn, Doe Hill community,
a son of the tie Allen Botkin. He
came to Montrey from the stock

of very malignant orm, and he
lived but few days.
John was of humbN parentage
and was called from tie humble
walks of life, yet he CAV dignity
to the sphere in which he wed. He
was a man of toil--hard. honest
toil-but belonged to the cass that
gives dignity to labor. 1t ras his
aim always to give an honest lays
work and see to it that every pm.
ny bargained for was fully-earnel
and the work well-done. \
His word was as good as his
bond and his services we're always
in demand. In spite of many adj
verse conditions and manifold
handicaps, he had managed to
provide well for his little family
and leave them a modest legacy.
He was man of integrity and
scrupulously honest, If opportun-
ity be the measure of responsibility
there was no more worthy man in
Highland.
He leaves a wife and four small
children, and is also survived by
several brothers and sisters.
Interment took place in the
Monterey cemetery, Rev. c. L.
Potter conducting an appropriate
funeral service at the house.

1910.

The noblest purpose and highest
aspirations that any of us could
have is that our lives may be more
useful during the year upon which
we have entered. To be of real
service to our neighbor, our COM
munity, state and nation, is an
ideal aspiration, and appeals to the
best of manhood that is in us. If
we are really helpful in our day,
we are necessarily working and
thinking along line calculated to
make us good: Helpfulness does
not always consist of financial aid;
many apoor fellow is hungry for a
word of encouragement, cordial
greeting, the CHEEKY good morn
ing" that we withhold, and kind
ly "God speed" or friendly bearing
may prove to be the "food'' for
which his nature is furnishing and
his soul shriveling.
There is so much of good that we
can do which costs US nothing from
a monetary standpoint, and yet is
of inestimable value and import
ance because of it's two-fold char
acter or reflex action In the CO.
ing of it, we do good and get coed.
It calls for the elimination Of sell
fishness; conformity to the Golden
Rule; the adornment of Christian
virtues that may be lacking, the
quitting on" of which makes us
happier and better and prompts us
to be good and helpful to Others.
But enough of this. Sermon1-
ing does not always make us BET
ter. Nevertheless, this is the APP
propriate season for sober thought
- reflection, and these often lead
Aendment ond greater useful
Warmer, closer friendships,
\ighbors, more useful, helps
I(e IN and women in every
-, go tNes Ie are possible, within
3 l saon ~ go well worth our striv-
&c re@'A rpe mobility of such an
" ss,t ~ y the thought we have in
raXpo' what the year may have in
AsJr each of us, no one can
stcnd it is best so. In spite OF
curiosity to be found in our
ke-up, no prudent, thoughtful
l3rson would want the veil lifted.
some of the things that await us
fare fixed and inevitable, but many
I others will be what we makeathem.
AS to health, social standing, ma
terial prosperity and moral stami-
all are, in large measure,
ours to determine. While we have
no assurance that we will escape
the ills and trials common to hu-
manity, we may feel assured that
the good things will not be lacking
In order to get and do all the good
we can during the year, let us all
get busy right at the beginning.

POWERFUL BODY URGES PHYSICAL
 R. R. VALUATION
Especial from United Press.) )

Topeka, Kas., Sept. 23.-With the permanent organization of the Mid Western Traffic Association, embrac- ing the majority of the commercial organizations in middle western states, the freight rate conference which closed here late last night, is believed today to have yielded results more important than the organizers of the conference had expected.
 The conference closed after the adoption of resolutions demanding the rigid enforcement of the Sherman antitrust law as applied to bureaus for the fixing of freight rates and urging the physical valuation of rail-. roads as the only positive means of determining whether an increase in rates would be reasonable.
 President Taft will be presented with a copy of the resolutions re- garding the antitrust law by a rnittee of seven appointed by Chair man Mckenzie of Kansas.
 The adoption of the resolutions came only after heated debate. At one time the conference was threat ened with disruption but this ended with the withdrawal of J. H. John son, of Oklahoma City. who had of fered substitute resolutions asking only a protest against the proposed in rates by the western roads and insisting that the anti Trust law should not be invoked against the roads. He declared that the physical valuation of railroads is unnecessary.
