AN OLD SETTLER
GONE TO REST
Albert Riley Talcott Passes Away at
His Home in Arion Thursday
Was a Pioneer Of County
BEEN FAILING FOR SOME TIME
Born in Madison, O., on Sept. 6, 1852,
and Came to Iowa With Parents
When Thirteen Years Old

Arion, June 22-(Special to the Re-
view Riley Talcott, one of the ear
ly settlers of Crawford county, died
at his home in Arion on Thursday,
June 18th, after a short illness, due to
acute rheumatism Of the heart. Mr..
Talcott had been in failing health for
some time although no one realized
that the end would come SO soon.
Albert Riley Talcott was born in
Madison, O., on Sept. +, 1852. At
the age of three years he moved with
his parents to Whitend, ILL.,, and when
thirteen years of age the family re-
moved to Crawford county, Iowa. On
Oct. 2, 1873, he was united in mar
riage of Miss Mary Ellen Adams,
who survives her husband. TO this
union were born eleven children, six
of whom are yet living, namely; Dean,
Mrs. J. Allen, Chas. Riley, Van Mart
in, Mrs. Earl Chambers and Gladys.
In the death of Mr. .Talcott the be-
reaved family mourn the loss of a
most devoted husband and kind faith
err and the members of tile COM
munity will miss one of its best
citizens whose kindly disposition and
genial manner won fast friends. The
loss will also be deeply felt in the
Methodist church, with which he unit
ed with his wife in July, 1886, at Dow
City, Rev. Barton being the pastor,
and in the Woodman lodge of Dow
City, in which he has been most 10y
al and helpful member since March
Is, 1892.
The funeral services were held at
the Congregational church on Friday
afternoon, June 18th, at which time
every business house was closed. The
church was crowded with relatives
and friends, large number of whom
had been friends for many years. A
quartet sang Lead Kindly Light,
"Abide With Me" and Safe in the
Arms of Jesus" very beautifully, and
Rev. ]. H. Priestley preached SER
mon of consolation and hope to the
sorrowing family. The pail bearers
were members of the Modern Wood
men lodge, namely: VIM. Fishel, Dav-
i'd Bremser, St. Clair Butterworth, A.
NJ. Randall, Albert Cooper and Jacob
Reeser. The services were conclud-
ed at the grove in the Dow City Gene
tery.

Postmaster General Burleson says
that the postal deficit would have
been much greater but for the parcel
post. And it was republican, senate
that forced the parcel post provision
into the post Office appropriation bill
after the democratic house had re.
fused to take such action. A repub.
.lican president signed the law. 1t
isn't the only instance in which re.
publican. legislation avoided part O.
the democratic disaster, Retention of
part of the republican tariff on sugar
was another big factor in preventing
q much larger treasury deficit.

LARGE IMPORTS PREVENTED

New York importing firms have $780,
100000 worth Of merchandise tied up
in ports abroad because of the British
commerce restrictions on goods made
in Germany and Austria. These i'm
porters have appointed committee to
take up the matter with President
Wilson and to demand that, these
goods be released.
Many of the men appearing on this
committee are known to the members
Of the ways and means committee of
congress as advocates of near free
trade on goods competing with our
own manufactures. They spent time
and money when the Underwood law
was being framed in lobbying for tar
if reductions. But as the democrats
were framing an importers tariff law,
these men were "called in as advis-
Ors," and were not known as lobby
lists. The od-Simmons-Wil-
son tariff law gave them about what
they wanted, but a higher power is,
delaying their enjoyment Of the fruits
of their iniquity. 1t looks like a
judgment on them.

Weekly Weather Bulletin

For the week ending June q, 1915.
Continued showery weather has still
further delayed planting, replanting
and cultivation of corn in many sec.
tions of the state, and the prevailing
cool weather retarded it's growth. But
the conditions are more favorable
than for several weeks previous.
Small grain is generally in good con.
dition, but in some localities both
wheat and oats have lodged. Rye and
fall wheat are ripening and oats are
heading nicely. Glover hay harvest
has begun and the yield will be heavy.
Grass, truck crops, especially pota'
toes, and fruits are doing well.-Geo.
