Los lectores del BOLETIN sabran
ahora, 81 no 10 sablan, que para ell dia de
hoy, Is de Febrero, tenia preparado
nuestro Concejo Municipal una reunion
de contribuyentes de la municipalidad
con el proposito de conocer por medic
de votaci6n, 81 la mayoria de los contri-
buyentes era 8 no partidaria del En-
prestito.
Como este asunto del Emprestito Sc
ha hecho puramente politico, no hay nj
que decir que las huestes de uno otro
lado, estaban como fieras, cada cual en-
su puesto de combate los repubicanos,
en- pro del Emprestito, los unionistas,
en- contra. A las de la manana va ell
contingente llenaba los bajos de la ca

dias electorales a copar los mejores pun

TELLSOF
LIFE OF MRS. JUDSON

An article telling of the useful
life of Mrs. Phoebe Judson appeared
in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer
Sunday.
The following Is the P-I story
about Mrs. Judson:
1.-The home is the cornerstone
of good citizenship" has always
been the motto of Mrs. Phoebe Jud-
son, who has come to be known as
the Mother of Lynden." She is
SO and her mind is as clear and
alert as it was fifty years ago. She
was reared in a pioneer home
in the western reserve, on the shore
of Lake Erie. She crossed the
plains by the Oregon trail on her
honeymoon when she was scarcely
twenty, and with her husband loca-
ted in Olympia.
Here in Whatcom County she
reared four children and won the
cognomen of Mother of Lynden
because she has taken into her
home ten other children and given
them the same motherly care and
devotion that she gave to those of
her own brood. She has been the
nurse in many a home during crit
ical illness and is accredited with
having saved the lives of many chill
dren.
In the early days of the Puget
sound country she was wont to go
about in a canoe with an indian
crew or along the forest trails ON
errands of mercy to the bedside OF
some sufferer. Through it all her
health was spared. and she has lived
to see her Observation-Disclosures
born and to gather with five gener-
ations of her kin.
A daughter, Anna, is the widow
of Eason B. Ebey. of WILDLY Island,
whose father, Col. Isaac N. Ebey,
was slain in the pioneer days by In
dians while a customs officer. The
third generation is represented by
Mrs. Victor A. Roeder, who is a
past regent of Chief Whatcom Chap
ter of the d. A. X. Mr.. Roeder is
president of the Bellingham Nation
al Bank. He is the son of Captain
H. Roeder, the first white settler OF
Bellingham. The fourth generation
in this remarkable family Is Mrs.
James Russell Boalster. She is
Capt. Roeder's grandchild as well as
Mrs. Judson's great-grandchild, and
she has christened her daughter,
Mrs. Judson's great-great-grand-
child, Phoebe Elizabeth for her
great grandmother and for Capt.
Roeder's wife, Elizabeth Austin Roe
der, a pioneer
Here in these five generations we
find the blending of the blood If
the pioneer families of Puget Sound.
An added interest is given TO This
combination OF these good old
names by the fact that these two
grandmothers. though on different
branches in the family line, were
dear friends and playmates in their
