In the jury room the market price Of meats
was advancing on the strength Of what the

It was beftting the occasion that Edwin
Tilden, head of the Beef Trust should take
the jury in tow, ride them around in hand
some automobiles, and wind up the celebra-

In speaking of the case to the jury, it was

ence to the government officials who had
prosecuted the case.
Ten years to bring about an acquittal of the
Beef Trust, followd by the fragrant boast of
the Beef Trust official that eve have put up
ten year fight and have given them more than
they wanted," doesn't make the people feel
encouraged over the Trust situation

The Trust officials throughout the country
are jubilant, and they have right to be, for
they have things about as they want them.
The Supreme Court gave them what they
wanted in the Standard Oil and Tobacco
Trust cases, and the prosecution of the Beef
Trust officials has proved that it is next to
impossible to convict the individuals for the
criminal actions of the Trusts.
The Harvester Trust officials are iubilant
over the acquittal of the Beef Trust officials,
as the acquittal Of the Beef Trust officials
makes it almost certain that the Harvester
Trust officials will be acquitted on similar
prosecution that has already begun.
1t took ten years to bring the Beef Trust
prosecution to termination resulting in no
punishment for the criminals, and all during
that time the criminals were not losing any
thing because they were carrying on their
business just as they pleased during all of
that time they were robbing the people.
1t is enough to breed anarchy to see what
the Beef Trust has done and escaped punish
ment, and then have it's head official brag
that eve have put up ten year fight and we

ment more than it wants-it shows too plainly

An Obituary
lin Loving Remembrance of Our
Dear Wife and Mother.)


God, in His infinite wisdom, has
seen fit to remove from our midst,
our dear wife and mother, Marian
M, Pipes, who departed this life
February 9Th, 1912, and was laid to
rest in the Union cemetery. She
was a consistent member of the
Methodist church, and gave her
heart to Christ when IA years old.
She lived a devoted Christian life.
Although she had been in feeble
health for many years, and had
many trials and difficulties to over
come; she bore them all as only
Christian can. She was a true and
faithful wife and mother, and leaves
a husband and seven children, all
married, to mourn the loss of a wife
and mother. We stand in silent
awe as we see one so noble and true
as she lay down her cross and take
up her crown, yet why should we
weep, God was good to her, and took
her home to rest. The church has
lost a faithful member, the family,
faithful wife and mother, and the
community, a good neighbor.
We bow in humble submission to
His will, Who doeth all things we'll,
and can only say, "Thy will be DONE"
and not ours. We miss our dear
wife and mother when we gather
around the freside; we miss her
sweet voice, so soft and low, and her
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1912-04-04

sweet face we shall see no more on
this earth. She cannot come back
to us, but we can go to her. We
often look back to the time and the
JOY we have had here together, but
that was only temporal and but a
foretaste of that joy that is to come
to those that are faithful to Him
who said, "come unto Me all We that
labor, and are heavy laden, and I
will give you rest, take My yoke
upon you and learn of Me, for My
yoke is easy and My burden is light
and you shall find rest unto your
soul"
We believe she has gone to rest
and by the grace of God, we hope to
meet her where parting will be no
more. If it were not for this hope,
we could not stand our trouble, but
thank God for His presence, it will
not be long until we shall see her
blessed face. She was so true to us,
oh how hard to give her up; no lips
can speak, no tongue can tell the
anguish of this sad farewell. The
last words she spoke were these, the
water is cold, oh SO cold. 1t was
then that she stepped into the river
of death, and we fancy we can see
the dear Savior as He came with out
stretched arms to carry her over the
tide into that haven of rest.
Just short time ago.
Since one we loved passed away,
Sad was our home that fatal day;
When one we loved and dearly
priced,

JOSEPH BROWN.

Born March 1, 1922, was at the
date of his death, March II, 1912,
the Oldest native citizen Of Boone
County, Missouri
He was man of ability and integ-

ardently desirious of his country's
return to what he believed was the
purer and better government of his
earlier days. answering in his con-
victions, he had for years contended
for the once despised, but now popu-
lar political principles-the Initia-
tive, the Referendum and the Recall.
A few weeks ago, the Hon. Thos
e. Watson, who so ably advocates
reform in government, and whom
Mr.. Brown regarded as the greatest
of men-living or dead-congratu
lated him on his living to see the
dawning triumph of these great
principles. The reception of the
letter was one of the happiest and
proudest moments of the old
Romans life He shed tears of 1oy
at this recognition from his great
leader.
Mr.. Brown, like many of the
plOue0iS was 0nQOWoQ With great
physical, mental and moral strength.
His long and useful life was one
with nature. His death as natural
as the falling of an autumn leaf. He
has but joined the Choir invisible,
"Of those immortal dead who live
again.
"In minds made better by their
presence"
In religion as in politics, Mr..
Brown was a member of the cold
Guard having affiliated with the
Regular Baptist denomination for
over half century. Like the
Apostle Paul, he was firm believer
in salvation by grace through
faith" unmixed with the works of
man, and died in the triumphs of
that faith.
He was twice married and was
the father of eight children, five Of
whom are living. Both wives died
long ago. His long life was spent in
the county Of his birth. Only a few
times was he ever beyond it's bounda-
ries for short periods. His passing
