A Tribute to the Memory of the Late
Rev. Thomas Douuan.

In the course of the service on last
Sunday evening Rev. D. Stratford
Scadeng. the pastor of the local Metho-
dist Episcopal church saids
IL am reminded at this time of the
words used by David on the occasion of
the death of Abner know ye not that
prince and great man hath fallen
today in Israel" We are closely united
with our sister church to-day in the
sense of bereavement that has over
taken US by the removal from earthly
scenes and translation to heavenly rest
anu glory,of Rev. Thos. Dougan. Brother
Dougan was man whom to know was
to respect. There was that in his bear
ing and personality which marked him
plainly as one of the anointed of the
Lord. For many years he bore with Joy
and satisfaction the burden and heat of
the day of strenuous service in the battle
OF the Lord against the mighty. His
sword never rusted in its scabbard, but
| methinks in the thickest of the fray his
hand oft clave unto it. He has been
borne home from the good fight prone
upon the shield which he never disgrac-
ed by any Tavering, but with which
he had SO consistently quenched the
fiery darts OF the wicked. He bore his
three.score years and ten with manly
vigor and his strength was labor and
song. We shall miss him from the ranks
The ways Of God are nscrutable and
while there are many about us whom
a ;cording to our faulty human judg
ment we could far better spare, we bow
before Him who knoweth all things
and worketh out the counsel of His owr
will. BLESSED are the dead which die
in the Lord; Yea saith the Spirit, that
they may rest from their iabors, ano
their works do follow them.

DEATH OF GEO. W. GRAVES
A Pioneer of Cavalier County for Thrt,
Years died at His Home in Langdon
on Monday Morning

After an illness which first presented
serious aspect early last summer Geo.
w. Graves passed away quite suddenly
on Monday morning at about half past
eight o'clock at his home in this city
The ravages of of Bright's disease, the
presence of which was not discovered
until too late for medical science tc
overcome, made such inroads on his
physical condition that his friends and
the immediate family have for some
time past noted with feelings of real sad
ness the gradual encroachments made
by the malady. Mr.. Graves who first
came to Cavalier county from Ontario
in 1883 was born at Glencoe, Ont, in
1852 on September 9th that year. For
upwards of quarter of century Mr..
Graves and his family have been resi-
dents of Loan township, the deceased
| being honored and held in high respect
by wide circle of friends and neighbors
for miles around. He was one of Cava-
lier county's pioneers and had borne the
hardships incident to life in those early
days with q fortitude and thrift that
made his declining years such that
could be enjoyed without anxiety and
the approach of the end faced without a
fear for those left to mourn. Mr.. Graves
was true christian gentleman and for
upwards of twenty years had been an
active member of the Methodist church,
IL addition to which it can be said with
every sense of truthfulness that be at
all times took great interest in every
movement that had for its object the
upbuildlng and improvement of his
| fellow man, His death IS incurred,
not in Langdon alone or the neigh
hood OF his farm home at Mona, but by
the people of the entire eastern part of
the county, and to the bereaved widow
and sorrow stricken family goes out the
heart felt sympathy of all.
! Yesterday afternoon the funeral seryi.
ces we're conducted at the Methodist
church by the pastor Rev. d. Stratford
Scadeng, the sermon being preached
from Psalm CXXvIl,verse 2: $50 he giveth
his beloved sleep. The remains were
taken to the cemetery of the Harvey
Center M. e. church for interment.
Sleep, what a wealth of meaning in the word
Not death but sleep not loss but gain. God 8 gf,
Not his impoverishment enrichment rather.
Not cloud, nor even in the cloud rift
But gift divine, from God to His beloved"
a gift of light in which no shadow creeps,
o dry your tears and cease your sad repiaing.
Listen, He giveth His beloved sleep"

CURRENCY BILL
UNDER DEBATE
Chairman Glass Explains

NO POLITICS, HE SAYS

Would Be Subject to Political In

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE admin
istratioo currency bill started on it.
devious way to- the statute books
when Chairman Glass of the house
banking committee and one of the
fathers of the measure opened de-
bate on the bill In the house. Mr.
Glass expounded the principles un
derlying the bill and replied to va,
rious criticisms of the measure. The
Democrats hope to conclude the gen.
eral debate on tho bill this week and
begin its detailed consideration on
Monday. -. .....
Mr.. Glass replied at length to the
criticism that the federal reserve
board. placed by the bill in control OF
the proposed financial system, would
with its wide powers, be subject Ia
political influences.
There is no politics In this mat,
ter; there can. be none," he said. 1T
is my earnest conviction, based upon
long and serious reflection, that no
man can conceive, as none has yet
pointed out, how any part of this sys.
TEN can be perverted to political uses.
Igshall not soon forget the emphasis
with which the president of the
United States declared that no man
would ever be found who would
be willing to imperil his repu-
tation or tarnish his fame by Sc
fragrant prostitution of his Office"
Mr.. Glass declared that opposition
to the bill by bankers was caused by
the fact that the bill would sever the
relations between banks and stock
gambling.
