Edmund George Johnson died at
his home on Lynn avenue, February
26, 1914, after long but apparently
painless illness
August 20, 1911, he was taken sud
denly very sick and it was thought
that he could live only a few hours.
But the hours heightened into days
and he recuperated sufficiently to walls
out about the farm buildings and even
to do little work. Hopes were en-
tertained that he might ultimately Ie
cover. But as time slipped along in.
stead OF continuing to improve a de-
crease in vitality was noticed.
That fall he was taken to Chicago
twice and examined by eminent
specialists and again once the mex
spring. Soon after he went to Riches
ter and was examined by the Mayo
Bros. "no hope' was the report from
all. AS alast resort he was taken TO
Il
aion and possible treatment by the
famous nerve specialist, Or. Eugene
Riggs. Again "no hope" fell up)p
the ears of the anxious waiting rela
tives. The disease was diagnosed asl
"tumor at the base of the brainu but
the cause thereof will ever remain q
mystery. A trained nurse was brought
from the st. Paul sanitarium and was
a constant and capable attendent I'M
til he passed away.
Mr.. Johnson was bora in Sumpter
,nuary Is, 1870, and was the young
est child of his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Ros we'll johnson, and The grandson OF
William Johnson we'll known as one
of the earliest settlers of Sank county
He grew to manhood on the farm
upon which he was born and which he
ca ne into posse ssion of after the death
Of his parents. It can truly be sale
of him that he was well educated,
upright and God-feariug man OF w1om
it was often remarked "He is friend
to every body and verybody is friend
to him."
On Dec. IL, 1900 he was married 10
Miss Jennie May Farnum, only daugh.
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. FL. j. Farnum, u
Sumpter.
The young couple were soon estab
lished in their home the doors of
which, as of old, always stood widt
pen in hospitality to relatives anC
friends, and the good cheer dispensed
there will long be remembered.
On July 1912 removal was made to
BAraboo for various reasons but chiefly
to be near their physician.
Mr.. Johnson is survived by q hears
Lroken wife, an only and much loveo
sister, Mrs. Kate M. Tarnu!zer of Prai
RE du Sac and three brothers, William
A. of Gilby, N. d., Henry j. of Crane

From Washington comes story
of red tape. in which the old Grand
Junction Indian school was involved
that will be interesting reading to
many of the local people who remem-
ber Superintendent Record.
An Indian boy, a Navajo, having
six toes on one foot, arrived at the
school, This precluded the possibii-
ity of his wearing the regulation
government shoe. Superintendent
Record of the institute ordered spe-
cial pair of shoes made for the boy,
and sent the bill for them, together
with other vouchers, to the depart
ment at Washington for payment.
Some member of the staff OF John w.
Noble, who was then at the head OF
the department, refused to pass the
item as to the shoes, finding no pre-
oedent for SO doing. He wrote BACK
that the superintendent would nave
to pay for the shoes out OF his own
pocket. This Record did, but when
the boy needed another pair OF shoes
he brought the attention of the de-
rartment again to the fact that there
was no provision to provide SIX
toed foot with shoe.
According to the archieyes, tele'
grams began to pass back and forth
between the school at Grand Junction
and the department at Washington

End of Fight Over the Selling
Agency Will Come at Special
Session in Palisade Tomorrow

Tho long drawn out fight over the
adoption OF the selling plan for the
Grand Junction and the Western
Slope associations will come tomor-
row when a special meeting will be
held at the home of A. ~ McLennan,
one of the directors of the Grand
junction association in Palisade.
At that time the agreement as al
ready published will be adopted by
Il vote OF five to four. and the unrest
caused by the deadlock in the direc-
torate OF the Grand junction associ-
alton will be ended with the vote of
Mr.. McLennan in favor of the con-
tract.
Mr.. McLennan's sealed vote was
ready to be cast at the special meet
ing Wednesday, which had been call
ed after all of the eight directors had
agreed not to object to the casting OF
the vote in this way. However, when
a vote was taken at the special meet
ing, the Clifton director A. J. Harvey
objected to Mr.. McLennan's vote be-
ing counted and another deadlock
ensued.
The delay in the negotiations al
most caused rupture in the rela-
tions between the two associations,
and the Western Slope has been on
the point of employing its own sales
manager, a local man, and going it
