MRS. vILLETIE |. WRIGHT.

Seldom has our community been so
surprised and shocked as hast Saturday
on hearing of the sudden and unex-
pected death OF Mrs. A. s. Wright,
wife of the senior member of the
Wright Grocery Co. of this city.
vflleittie l.. Woods was born In
the state of West Virginia Oct. IL,
1856 and at am early age removed to
villisca Iowa, where she identified
herself with the Methodist Episco-
pal church and ever remained true
loyal adherent of that faith, always
keeping inviolate her sacred obligat-
ions to live a pure and exemplary
Christian life.
On January, 26th, 1882, she was
united in marriage to Asa Samuel
Wright to whom she was ever a
most loving and helpful companion
untn taken from her dear ones by
death.
To this union was born two child
rem, Edith, who is the wife of Geo.
Wlley, and Pearl, who Us well
and favorably known dn this commun
ity as a young man of character and
honor.
Mrs. Wright came to Grangeville
in 1900 with her husband and family
and for five years resided on the
prairie. coming to this city in 1905
to make her home.
On the Sabbath, Jan. 1st, she felt
some what indisposed and the true
nature of her sickness was not suS-
pected TIM pneumonia had fastened 1t.
deadly grip on her and on Saturday
at 1880 she was promoted from the
Church Militant to the Church Trt
umphant, leaving a host of friends
to mourn her departure.
The funeral services were conducted
by her pastor Rev. Ira l.. Crooks al
the M. e. Church, her home church
which was filled to overflowing, at
testing the high place she occupied
in the community where she was bee
known.
Mrs. Wright viii be sadly misses
, i'm her home and family and also II
the church and community, and trul.
can we say, she was beloved of al
for her rare tact and consideration
for all in distress.
The community joins in express
ing its sorrow over the loss OF dut

ASSESSORS TO
MEET in BOISE
Great Things Expected from
Meeting for Tax Regula-
ton and Adjustment.

County assessors from all parts of
Idaho will meet in convention in Bois
on Tuesday, january "a. The cen
vention may extend over three days.
The official call for this convention
has Just been issued by Gov. Hawley,
II Is certain that a large majority
of the county assessors If not all
OF them, will be present at the con-
vention. Their expenses will be paid
for by their respective counties. AS
SCISSOR ]. v. Mash of Idaho county
says he will most assuredly be ON
hand, as he sees the crying need of
such action.
This movement is i'm direct line with
the governors message and may be
looked upon as the first definite move
of the new state administration to
bring about reform i'm the revenue
laws OF the state. The convention is
called at this time in order that the
members of the legislature may have
the benefit of the experience and wis
dom of the assessors, the men best
informed ON the subject of taxation.
To Adjust Tax Burdens.
There is a strong sentiment In the
state for better revenue laws and fol-
more equitable assessments. There is
a widespread feeling that many Cd
the Largest property owners, including
corporations, are not bearing theiI
just proportion of the tax burden AN
that the hand of the assessor falls
too heavily on the smaller property
owners. There rs also a sentiment
that too much of hhe revenue raised
goes to some of the counties In thu
form Of state appropriations and no
enough to other counties.
Strong and advanced grounds wer'
taken by both parties in regard t'
improved taxation laws in their cam
paign declarations last fall, 3he sent
fment seeming to be for genera
oyerhauldng of the entire revenue sy
tenn of the state, and this has beel
reiterated in the governors message
On account of this unanimity of SEN
tment big things are expected fror
this convention of assessors, espe'
tally as 1t comes at this time whe
the Legislature is IN session and whe
so much interest is crystalizing !
favor of radical changes.

svaRIDeE ON COUNTY DIVISION.

suRRIpoE ON COUNTY DIVISION.
Lewiston Evening Teller: There
isn't the least necessity for the di-
vision OF Idaho county at this time,
and ann certain that there rs more
than majority of the citizens OF the
county who are opposed to disturb
ing the present county lines" said
James Surridge, OF HaGpster, the pio-
neer resident of that portion of Idaho
county, who dis the city with Mrs.
Surridge for couple OF days visit.
Mr.. Snrridge ds hopeful that the NOV
ment tnaugurated at Cottonwood in
proposing to cut off and create Ran
dali" county from a portion of Ida
no county will fail and he be-
lieves that the remonstrance will be
80 strong that the legislature wiz not
fail to recognize the injustice of the
request for division.
Mr.. SurIddge is one of the earliest
pioneers Of Idaho county and has
been prominent I'm aAl public move
ments affecting the county. He as
opposed to the division Of Idaho coun
ty because of the injustice of the
proposed boumdry hines and for the
further reason that he characterizes
It as a movement designed only to
secure a county seat for Cottonwood
and q means Of creating few Off
ces for politicians. Mr.. Surridge has
represented his county in the Idaho
legislature and ait the last general
election was the democratic NOMINEES
for state senator, being defeated BY
small margin by the republican
candidate, Senator ]. L. Eckert.

were taken to canvass the sentiment
of the voters Of the county the grea'
majority would be opposed to divis
ion. he said. "The lines as pro
posed are not suitable In the firs

his body. Yet the man with the shell about his life is relatively as low a type of man as the cam is a low tyne of animal
 The abundance of life consists in its affiliations. Some men grow a shell about their mind; they cannot entertain a new idea or see the point of view of their neighDoT. TheE condition Is not so deplorable as that of the men who grow a shell about their hearts.
 Our modern civilization would not require so many hospitals, jails and courts if it were not for hard-shsned hearts. for every man leeds sym pathy and intelligent appreciation more than medicine or punishment Quite aside, however, from the loss to the world, each man is immeasur- ably poorer who has grown such a shell about his life that it cannot overflow in sympathy and love to his neighbOr, the man at the desk next to him, and the customer to whom he sells goods.
 One day Jesus stood up before a

crowd of his countrymen and look ing into their faces plainly saw that their hearts were cramped and dwarfed. They win not overflow. The farmers were not the best possible farmers, the soldiers were serving because they were paid for 1t, the would gratify their vanity.
 Each man had hard shell about his life which hindered it's growth into overflowing abundance. His words. T am come that they may have life and have it abundantly, did not make as much impression oL his audience as they would had they been spoken by some modern phil anthropist who would endow the statement with s50.000,OO0.. Only the passing of centuries proved that it does not take money to make an oy. erflowing life.
 Most men live below their great. est capacity. So far are they from oyerfowing their place in life, they dc not even fill it up. Most parents could do far more for their children If they only would be content with little less income and less bridge whist. Most tradesmen could give d little peter service if hey tried to Most citizens could do a litle more for he pubic wefare if it were not 9or that shell of indifference. lux ury or plain piggishness O the com. mon garden variety.
 The overflowing life is not merely an ideal. It became a fact in Jesus It is realized today in every heart that has admitted Jesus win rev erence and devotion.
 The man who possesses the com panionship of Jesus does not serve his fellow men because he is paid to nor vote only that his taxes may not be increased.
 A man who admits Jesus into his heart withdraws his shell, makes il into backbone, and then goes out to serve the world because he cannot help 1t. His heart is overflowing with love and sympathy. Like Jesus be can pass from a wedding to a fu- neral, and in each place become so much a part of the life he meets that his very presence Is a coisola- tion, an inspiration and a purifying power.
