VIM. CantWell.

From the Candy lrrigator of June
18th, we take the following account
of the death of former we'll known
resident of Morrow county:
VIM. Cantwell, who after an i'll
ness of 10 weeks, passed away at the
home of his daughter, Mrs Cassie
Evans last Friday evening, was born
in Madison Co, Arkansas in Feb. Is,
1850. He leaves a widow and three
daughters. Mrs. Cassie Evans, Mrs.
Adam H. Knight of Candy and Mrs.
w. X. Chetwood, of Portland.
His parents were sturdy, indust-
rious and respectable citizens of the
commonwealth. He was mere boy
when the war of the COS broke out
in awful fury. He grew up on a
farm, in the midst Of disturbed con
ditions while the Union and Confed-
crate passed through the recon-
struction period. He possessed
more than ordinary gifts, nature
graciously endowed him, and had not
circumstances prevented his place,
career and work in the world might
have been different and he would
have come to distinction for service
in his day and generation. He mar
ried early in life as was the general
custom in that day and country, and
on Feb. 16, 1869 he assumed the oh
legations of husband, taking as his
wife, Mary Emily Buckley, they lived
happily together, sharing the joys
and sorrows Of their companionship
s children born unto them, of
whom passed away in early life.
In the early eightys he removed
with his family to Heppner, Oregon
Here the wife and mother was taken
away by the hand of death. In Nov
| 1889 he came to Portland with hi:
three daughters. In Dec. 1893 he
came with his family to Clackamas
county where he has since resided
| His second marriage was to Annie
Lawrie, Jan. IA, 1908, who survives
him, and shares with his children the
sorrows of bereavement The funera
services We're held in the Methodist
Episcopal church of Candy Sunday

large and representative audience

charge. DR.. T. b. Ford delivered the
address. Mr.. Cantwell was a pastor
of the church before coming to Ore
gon and Dr. Ford was one of his
elders. Peace to the memory O
William Cantwell.
VIM. Cantwell resided in HeppneI
for a number of years and leaves
number of relatives here. Two sis
ters, Mrs. S. A. Wright and Mrs. Lot
tie Brown, reside here as we'll as

CITY COUNCIL MEETS IN
M|D.MONTH SESSION
Selection of Fair Grounds Brings
Forth Unusual Amount of IN
terest. City Will Act
At Once.

The agitation over the matter of
getting grounds for the Morrow
County Fair Association was doubt
less the reason for more interest than
common in the mid-monthly meeting
of the city council. There had been
appointed a committee representing
both the Fair Board and the CONNER
cial Club to take up this matter with
the City Council, and had it not been
for the pernicious activity of this
committee perhaps there would have
been no meeting at all. Through
their hustling, the Council was
brought together and Mayor Smead
was conveyed to the council cham
bers, though he was not in the best
of condition, physically, to preside.
Members present were Mayor Smead,
Councilmen Barratt, Hager, Minor,
Kirk and Cornett. There was con-
sideration of some bills covering a
tank of oil just received and the
freight on same, making a total of
$3S7.92. After this the considera-
tion of petitions, memorials, resolu-
tions, etc., was taken up among
these being the petition of the COM
mittee representing the Commercial
| Club and asking for the removal of
unsightly billboards from the streets
of Heppner. To carry out in meas
ure this request, the Mayor appointed
Councilmen Barratt, Hager and Mi
nor to look into this matter and
make report at next meeting of the
council. This committee will also
make recommendations as to old
shacks and unused buildings about
town that are fire traps and unsani-
tary. The consideration of the pc
tition of the joint committee of the
Morrow County Fair Board and Com
mercial Club was then taken up, and
after hearing the reading of the pc
tition by member of the committee,
a motion was passed that the PROPOSE
tion made be accepted by the city,
contingent upon the guarantee of the
committee being carried out. To get
at a fuller and complete understand
ing between the committee and the
council, an executive session was
called following the transaction Of
some other business. The conclus-
ions reached at this executive session
have not yet been made public.
Upon motion the Recorder was in
structed to notify the owners of the
Club building. to comply with the
terms of their contract with the city.
The action of certain members of
the council with reference to the
bridge across Willow creek at the
head of Court street was approved
In reference to certain property
of the city appearing on the delin-
quent tax rolls of Morrow county for
the year of 1907, against which there
is tax charge of $3.50: the recorder
was instructed to draw a warrant in
favor of Morrow county to pay this
amount. This tax had become de-
linquent on the property before be-
ing purchased by the city but to clean
the matter up and save further eX-
pense this action was taken.
Thereupon the council went into
executive session to consider the pro-
posals of the aforementioned joint
committee.

this end in view we ask that the Club
ask and insist that the City Council
donate the above mentioned lot for
park purposes.
We also feel that If our citizens
would take more active interest in
public affairs and attend the meetings
of the school board and city council,
1t would not only show that we are
taxing an interest in their delibera-
tions, but have a tendency to get
better measures through.
We also feel that the establishment
of a Ladies Club is almost imperative
to get the best results.
Respectfully submitted,
Mrs. w. W. Smead,
Mrs. V. Crawford,
Mrs. w. T. Goulder,
S. E. Notson,
