OBITUARY

On the 23rd day of May 1915,
the angel of death called at the
home of Mr.. H. l. Trapp and
took from them one OF their
precious sons, Homer l..
Homer was born June 13,
1901, being only IA years. II

seemed SO very hard to give up
our loved one. He was carried
to Newton sanitarium, but moth
ing could be done for him, not
even encouragement given
Every aid that physicians,
father, mother. brothers, sisters,
relatives and friends could give,
was given him, but without
avail. Our Father whispered.
"Suffer little children to come
unto me, for of such is the king
dom of heaven We thank God
He does not always call the sim
ner, but calls those who are
ready to meet him. We know
Homer is resting in that heaven
ly home for this assurance was
given when his eldest brother
made inquiry of him only few
days before he departed. He
answered and said he was
ready and that he was not afraid
to die. With this blessed as
surance be should not be mourn,
ed after, but we should all try
and live nearer to God each day
and when the summons comes
for us to be ready to meet our
loved one.

Homer was sad beyond expires

our loss is heavens gaim. |
want to say to the broken
hearted mother, who nursed the
deceased SO patiently and WHO
shed SO many tears for him.
weep not for Homer, for he is
surely in heaven where there is
no sadness, tears, heartaches or
pain. Dear father, mourn not,
for Homer stands at the pearly
gates awaiting the times when
he clasp your hand and say.
"All is we'll, come in" To your
sisters and brothers, do not weep
but resolve to live closer to Jes-
us Christ and by and by you
shall meet Homer face to face
where death and sorrow are un-
known.
After funeral services, conduct

remains were laid to rest in Good

Dublin, Sir Roger and the Germans.

Three separate expeditions launched by Ger.
many against England in the space of few
days have been repulsed with nothing accom-
plished and the British are not in panic, though
doubtless they are little more on guard and
preparing for the next visitation in whatever form
1t may come German auxiliary cruiser, dis
guised neutral merchantmen, with a cargo
of arms, destined for ireland, and crazy Sir
Roger Easement on board, conveyed by sub
marine, sunk and mad Sir Roger and his
German companions were made prisoners Then
feet of Zeppelins were driven off, and finally
German cruiser squadron, which attempted a
bombardment the east coast was sent sour
rying home. As reminder of these few DAYS
OF excitement at home England has an uprising
in Dublin on her hands, which is doubtless easily
traceable to Sir Rogers activities in Germany.
How serious the revolt is the outside world will
not at once be permitted to know, though il is
not impossible that it will cost Sir Roger Case
ment his life, if it is proved that he and his
German friends were the chief nstigators For
while it may have been the intention of the
British authorities to deal with him as a mad
man. developments that will make sterner meas
ures imperative can readily be imagined
That the men of Dublin should permit them
selves to be made the tools of the foes of
civilization against whom regiments of their fell
low countrymen heroically battling in France
is the sad part of the story. Without hope of
anything to be gained they are committing a
crime against their race. In this country
the chief concern should be in the evidence of
very thorough knowledge which certain per-
sons IN New York appear to have of events
transpiring in Dublin. We have learned enough
OF the work of German conspirators on our own |
soil to justify the suspicion that Sir Roger Case
ment and his German allies have been enIistine
support in the United States. There are no Ameri-
cans more loyal than the many thousands who
came here from ireland those of Irish descent:
but there are some who yet cherish an undying |
animosity against England and there would be
no occasion for surprise should it be learned !
that few-who would be repudiated by the
great majority of men of their own blood-have
been misled into aiding the conspirators, who
have not hesitated either violate the neutrality
OF the United States or attempt to DESTROY its
industries that were furnishing aid to the allies.
In this greatest of all wars events are moving
swiftly, and in neutral America, far removed from
the scenes of conflict, we are being constantly
warned that we must not for a moment relax
our vigilance.
The Washington herald., 1916-04-26

The Democratic convention, which
met in Baltimore early in July. ac-
cepted both the platform and the can
didates of the Cincinnati convention,
though the Democratic leaders liked
neither.
The platform spoke no recognizable
Democratic doctrine, except indeed.
in its advocacy OF the maintenance of
the public credit by speedy return
to specie payments. and the candidates
were men whom no experienced poll
tician could hope to see elected.
But the split in the Republican
ranks evidenced by the Cincinnati con-
vention was the only sign anywhere
visible to the Democratic leaders of
a change in public sentiment likely TO
weaken the party in power. Without
the coalition they knew themselves
helpless; with it they hoped TO make
at least a show of strength. Such
allies might be worth the weak can
didates and the inconcIusive decIara-
tion of principles that went with
them.
The Liberal Republicans" had given
form to the whole campaign, as they
had expected.
The result was what every one who
had the least sagacity in reading the
signs of political weather perceived
from the first 1t must be.
The Democrats added but one hun
dred and thirty thousand to their pop
ular vote Of four years before, though
the number of voters in the country
had greatly increased and for the first
time in the history of the government
every State chose its electors by the
direct suffrage of the people
The Republicans added six hundred
thousand to their vote. and General
Grant was elected for a second term
by an overwhelming majority in the
electoral college (2s6-63).
The congressional elections which
the choice OF President
gave the Republicans again, moreover,
their accustomed two-thirds majority
In both houses.

And yet though the coalition had
failed, the Democrats were nearer

Within two years the Republican
majority Of nearly one hundred in the
House of Representatives had been
supplanted by a Democratic majority
almost as large, and the men who had
LED the party of reconstruction found
their season of mastery gone by.
