He was first chosen commissioner

He was first chosen commissioner
from this district of Bingham county
before Bonneville county was created
in 1904, serving the years 1866.
In 1906 he was reelected for the
years 1907-8, and he retired from the
office known as one of the best COM
missioners the county ever had. In
April last he was elected councilman
from the Third ward. He has been
on the council six months, lacking
few days, but he made it point to
get familiar with the city's business,
and was one of the best pushers on
the work of the hydro-electric plant.
He believed in doing what he was
elected to do-complete the hydro
electric plant-and he was devoting
the greater portion of his time to eff
forts looking toward that end.
The whole community mourns his
loss, and he was a sterling citizen
from every point of view-a man who
did things. 1t will be hard matter
to find man to replace him, value
of service to the people considered.
