BUD M'CANDLESS. .
ne is Shot and Killed by Arch
Thurman, Town Marshal
of Edmonton.
THE OFFICER PERFECTLY UNSUITABLE.

The people of Edmonton We're thrown
INTO great excitement last Thursday
afternoon when four shots rang out and
the announcement was made that the
expected had happened that Arch
Thurman, the Town Marshall, had shot
and killed Bud McCandless.
The particulars, as we have been able
to gather them, are as follows:
McCandIess had been repeate dly
charged with violating the local option
laws, and Thurman had a warrant for
his arrest and went to the former S
store to serve it. AS soon as he enter
ed the building McCandless made a
move, but the Marshal was too
quick for him-had his pistol ready fol
action-frin four shots in rapid sue,
cession, every ball hitting its mark.
McCandless' wounds were in the heac
AMI on the body, andhe died instantly
Thurman surrendered to the Sheriff ant
will doubtless be acquitted at his ex
aiming trial.
1t is said by those who are in posi-
position to know, that the dead maj
was wholly terror to the good peopl
of Edmonton; that he was reckless ant
frequently caused trouble and that hi
business and presence was obnoxious t
the good people of Edmonton and Met
cafe county.
About eight or ten years ago he she
and killed Judge Geo. R. Price, an oil
nan. on the square at Edmonton, an
more recently he. collected a debt b
cowhiding debtor until paid.
The dead man leaves a wife and thre

A Sad Death

Mrs. Luther Brockman, who resided
with her husband and children in the
Newoy property, near the Fair Grounds,
died last Friday afternoon, victim of
typhoid fever. The ceas e d was
very excellent woman and was born and
reared in Russell county. She removed
with her husband and children to Co.
lumbia about one year ago, and being
strictly home lady, she had not made
the acquaintance of many people in Co
lumbia. Those who knew her best will
receive the intelligence of h demise
with sadness, as she had many close
friends at her former home. A son is
also down with the same disease, and
it is said that he is in a very critical
condition.
The surviving husband and children
certainly have the sympathy of this
town in this great affection.

Death of a Native Of Columbia.

The psople of Columbia and through
out Adair county will be surprised and
will regret to learn of the death OF Mr..
Thos. w. Montgomery, who passed be-
yond the veil, at his late home, in this
county, about one month ago. He lived
in the eastern portion of Adair, fifteen
miles from Columbia, and there is but
little passing from where he died to
this place, hence the intelligence of his
demise did not reach here until last
Saturday.
The deceased was born and reared in
this place, and at one time was one of
the best known men in this part of the
county. He was son of Nathan Mont
gomery, who was prominent and in
fiuential man during his life time, and
only lacked one month of being seven
ty-one years old. When about thirty
wears old he was married to Miss
Bradshaw, a sister of the late Tim
Bradshaw, and short time after mar
riage he located in the neighborhOOd
where he died. His mother was a
Winston, sister of DR.. Dudley Wins
ton, who left this town many years
ago, locating in Nashville, becoming
one of the prominent physicians OF the
South. Tom Montgom Try was man
who believed that blood would tell,
and he prided upon his birth, though
he was an unpretentious man. He wa:
honest in his dealings with his fellow
man, and those who knew him best hat
the highest regard for him. When HI
came to Columbia, he was given TIT
glad hand by all his former associates
He delighted to sit and talk with tn
friends of his early days, and he re
membered all the interesting incident
that took place about Columbia fro1
the beginning of the war to its close
He was an uncompromising Democrat
and On ardent Southern sympathizel
though he did not go to war. He wa
brought up in affluence, but the comm
of the war and the death of his fathel
swept the property from him and h
brother and sisters, and he died con
paratively poor man, leaving only
small farm, and that not very vaIuabl

With the first issue in January
we will begin a series Of articles on
Farm Topics" These articles
will be written by Karl Jones,
manager of THE Oaks" the Linn
county experiment farm, and most
of them will be devoted to work
actually done right here in our
own county. Nearly every farmer
takes from one to a dozen farm
papers and magazines, but they do
not always give information that
is of use to the farmer here as
climate and soil conditions vary so
much in different sections of the
country.
There will be a place in our
columns each week for the views of
other farmers, who may give their
own experience along any line con-
nected with farming and it's allied
industries. Any farmer who has
been especially successful in any
line of farm work, or who has tried
the suggestions made in any farm
paper and found them unsuited to
conditions here, is requested to
give his experience.
Linn county farmers are more
progressive than the average. They
take an interest in their work and
q just pride in their fine farms and
live stock. The recent farmers
institute and the; farmers associa-
tion have done much to better
farming conditions in the county.
Most of the BLADES subscribers
are more or less directly interested
in farming topics and we want to
do all IN our power 20 nelp Cne
good work along, so we ask you to
read these articles carefully-they
will all be- short-whether you have
al not. And We want your ex-
perience, too.
The first subject dealt with will
be SOIL and this will be fol-
lowed by articles on ''Crop Pro-
duction'' and Nitrogen and
Phosphorus. Other titles will be
announced soon. You cannot at
ford to miss reading any one OF
them
