Mr.. Jarman was engaged In mer-

Is years, and has an enviabie reputa-

upright citizen. Hc was successful in
both towns, and the recent closing OF

fortunate outside land investments

that, he was not compelled to close
his store, but did so voluntarily In or
der that all of his creditors might be
protected and their claims fully salts
fled. He turned over all Of his prop

Weston with clear record.
From two to three months each
year, In the fall. Mr.. Jarman will take
vacation from the Schmidt store and
go on the road for an eastern rubber
house, making his headquarters at
Denver. He is well qualified as a

that capacity. Prior to coming to Ore

Much regret Is expressed at Weston

is indeed fortunate in adding to its

FARMER GARsUs "sEEs TIE LIGEr." /"

The further farm is away from &
live town the less the land is worth
Population as well as productiveness
makes for higher values. These facts
are so obvious as to need no supporting
argument.
When the farmer helps his nearest
town he indirectly helps himself. En-.
lightened self-interest should therefore
prompt him to buy at home what he
can get at home, and to send away for
such articles only as his home town
merchant is unable to supply. He ia

schools, his local opportunities for
pleasant community life, when he
helps a big mail order house to cut

Iy done by Sears & Roebuck. Never q
slice comes his way, although he has
contributed to the profits. The mail
order house contributes nothing to the
support of his community institutions.
When too late Hans Garbus, an Iowa
farmer, 'saw the light" This is what
he says in letter to an agricultural
journal:

GREAT ORGANIZER
and F|NANC|ER
Success Of Rev. Or. A. |.
Murray as a Minister.
MAN OF BROAD EXPERIENCE

Belief That the African Methodist Epis-
oopaI Church Will Further Recognize
9srvIoss Of DR.. Murray by Promotion
70 Higher Official Rank-tias Labored
In Many Fields.
Jersey City, N. J.-From farmer and
cheesemaker to one of the most ag-
gresstvs and successful pastors In the
African Methodist Episcopal church
n the record Of the Rev. DR.. A. L.
Murray, pastor Of Bethel A. M. e.
church, Jersey City, N. ]. He has done
q great work, and his worth and
ability win yet be recognized by the
church by promotion. to higher off,
cdal rank.
He was born at Ypsilanti, Mich, In
1853, Of Kentucky parents. His moth
er died when he was but lad, and he
was placed under the care Of an aunt
who took the part Of a mother, and
she saw to 1t that he got his educa-
ton. His early education was receiv-
Cd IN the public schools at Charles
town and Greencastle, Ind.
He had desire to obtain thorough
education; hence he did not stop with
what he received In the public schools.
He entered De Pauw university, from
which he graduated with honors after
four years hard work. While stu
dent he made many friends and at the
same time a reputation as scholar.

A. a minister Of the gospel he has
made his own way to the front.
During the year 1888 this promising
young minister was appointed by the
presiding elder to supply at Brazil,
Ind. When he took charge Of the
church at Brazil he found three full
members and two probationers. He
realized that work had to be done, and
he rolled up his sleeves and went at 1t.
He got into the confidence Of the peo-
pie and erected a church costing $500
and increased the membership to sixty
four.
From each charge which he held
splendid reports were made. He had
not been making much noise, but was
doing a substantial work. This caused
him to be sought from time to time. 1t
was In 1891, having completed his stud
les, that Bishop Brown ordained him
an elder and transferred him to the
Michigan conference, sending him to
Jackson, Mich. The foundation had
been laid in Jackson for a new church,
and this young minister took hold, and
Il was not long before the building
was completed at cost Of $4,000.
1t was not long before he was re-
turned to Indiana to do some special
work there. This was done at Lafa-
yette and Vincennes under Bishop Way
man. Churches were built, parsonages
and In some cases churches were re-
modelled and many new members were
received at each charge. The bishop
decided that he was wanted In Indian
apolis, 80 he was assigned to Allen
chapel His real work was done here,
because he remodeled the church at
cost Of $1,000 and paid for It before he
was assigned to another field. His
work attracted the attention of Cover
nor James A. Mount. who was loud in
his praises Of the young minister.
Five years were spent In this charge.
then Bishop Grant transferred him to
the Iowa conference and stationed him
at Bethel A. NJ. e. church. Chicago.

RECALLS LINCOLN'S TRIBUTE
TO THE COLORED SOLDIERS
valor Of Our Fighters Gave Race Title
to American Citizenship.

Jose Clarana writing to the New York
World April 10 has the following to
say Of Abraham Lincoln and the great
emancipator's tribute t. the daring and
valor Of the colOred soldiers who fought
In the civil war while Lincoln was COM
mander In chief:
Now that all America, at home and
abroad Is mourning Abraham Lincoln
1t Is OppOrtune to recall to IL very for
getful nation the words of Lincoln him
self with regard to one branch of he
army whose victory led to the assas-
sinatiOn Of the commander In chief
Drive back to the support Of the re-
bellion the physical force which the
colored people now give and promise
us and neither the present nor any COM
ing administration can save the Un-
lon. Take from us and give to the
enemy the one hundred and thirty,
forty or fifty thousand colored soldiers,
seameh and 'ahorcrs and we cannot
longer maintain the contest"
This defense Of the much debated
enlistment Of cOl0red troops for the
maintenance Of the Union and the Sc
curing Of their own freedom only shows
the value Of their services to the ma
ton.
What Lincoln would have done for
the freedmen must always remain
largely matter of conjecture, as were
his own remarks on the subject for he
always waited to come to his bridges
before attempting to cross them
But the wisdom and patience and
justice which always characterized the
noble life which was ended by the bull
let Of Booth would hardly have per-
mitted Lincoln to consider seriously
the surmounting Of the physical diff
culties Of removing from this country
the millions Of the freedmen whose
sacrifices had given them title to a
place In the destinies Of the United
States.
