OBITUARY

Captain Isaiah Smith, the well
known pioneer steamboat captain on
Grays Harbor and tributary rivers,
died at local hospital at $50 yes
terday morning, after an illness of
eight months, aged 70 years, one
month and five days. The funeral
will take place at one o'clock Sunday
afternoon, services at the Fissel &
Pinnick chapel. Interment will be in
the Montesano cemetery, where he
will be laid beside the body of his
wife, who died IL years ago.
Captain Smith was born in Nova
Scotia December Is, 1S43. He came
to the Pacific Coast in 1866, locating
at Portland, Ore, where he engaged
in steamboating, pursuit he follow
ed continuously until compelled to re-
tire about eight months ago. Death
was due to general debility, or the
wearing out of remarkably strong
constitution. He came to Grays Har-
Dor in 1888 to assume command of
the old steamer Aberdeen, and later
went into the employ of the C. E.
Burrows company, a concern then
operating fleet of boats on the har-
Dor and its rivers Since, with the
advent of the railroad, this company
retired from the general transporta-
ton business, Captain Smith had op-
Grated their towing steamers for
many years, and has frequently COM
manded the steamers of the Wilson
Navigation company.
Captain Smith was more familiar
with the waters of Grays Harbor and
its tributary streams than any other
man, and his successful risky ven.
lures and immunity from accident are
bywords among the shipping men on
the Harbor, while his genial, kindly
nature and accommodating spirit
gained him host of friends, who will
keenly regret his loss.
He is survived by eight children:
three daughters, Mrs. Hattie French.
Portland; Mrs. J. D. Ruffner, Mack
intosh, Wash. and Mrs. w. E. Gid
dley, Bisbee, Arizona; and five sons,
Captain Edward c., Aberdeen Isaiah,

and Fred A., of the firm of Smith
& Tannahill, South Aberdeen.

down the width of roadway later if
deemed more expedient. Mayor Phil

The True Northerner is advertising

vicinity. 1t is to be at the home of

GIVE PRAISE TO
WHOM II IS DUE
Master Mind Who Plans the
Work is Often Overlooked
nnd Forgotten.

How often is it that in the distri-
button of "Boquets" or compliments
the person most entitled to them is
entirely overlooked or forgotten.
We look at magnificent building and
admire the structure, and give great
credit to the workmen who are erect
ing such a magnificent structure, but
forget all about the real master mind
who is entitled to the most credit of
all. So it is with smaller things.
Take for instance the paving of the
Paw Paw streets, and the erection of
the new bridge on South Kalamazoo
street. The True Northerner has in
recent issues commented on the ex-
cellence of the work and given much
praise to the contractor and village
council, forgetting entirely to bestow
a little credit and praise upon the man
who really planned the work to the
minutest detail. This oversight was
not intentional but was simply one of
those errors that is so common in
every day life. The fact of the mat
ter is, our competent and efficient
civil engineer, Dana p. Smith, PLAN
ned and built on paper to the minutest
detail, both of the aforesaid Paw Paw
improvements before the jobs were
submitted to "a bid, and in both cases
the contractor worked under the super
vision of the man who planned the
work. All the contractor had to do
was to follow the plans and specifica-
tions made by the engineer.
The Paw Paw pavement has al
ready attracted wide attention. 1t has
been inspected by engineers and
others from various parts of the
country and has been noticed in at
least half a dozen Of the leading en-
gineering papers of the country.
Many requests have been made for
information, pictures and descriptive
articles of this pavement. Let us not
forget then the man who planned it
all, and is responsible more than all
the rest for the splendid piece of
work. The engineer, Dana p. Smith
is at the head of his profession. He
is quiet and unassuming, and never
advertises himself with a blare of
trumpets or much loud talk. But he
knows his business, and keeps right
on Saving Wood" The True North
ener then takes this occasion to cor
rect in a measure the oversight, and
endeavor to give credit for these
splendid Paw Paw improvements to
whom credit is due. We do not de-
sire to detract one particle Of the cred
it due to contractors, electrician and
village council. Simply bestow what
is due to the competent engineer who
planned it all and who supervised the
work.

The Country Preacher.

The country preacher deserves
more praise and consideration than
he gets from the people, There is no
vocation or profession that is so
grossly underpaid, and no man is sub
ject to as much carping criticism.
The people may find fault with his
sermons, and say that his logic is
bad, or that his delivery is poor,
but the country preacher keeps right
on saving souls and cheering the sick,
unmindful Of the criticism of which
he is the target. The country
preacher is human being, the same
as all the rest of us. He may err
occasionally, but it is only occasion
ally. while with the rest of us it may
be chroic. He puts in long hours
working up sermons; he goes out of
his way to make calls on his congre-
cation members: he is ever-ready
with smile and word of encourage
ment for the sick. for the needy and
for the down-and- and all this
for a "salarv" that is but little less
than mockery in most instances.
The country preacher, like the coun-
try doctor, is worthy Of more praise,
more credit and more honors than US
ually comes his Winnebago
City Enterprise.

If you have pain in the back, urin-

Doan's Kidney Pills are a good
remedy to use. It has acted effective

catch me across my loins and make
it hard for me to straighten up.
Mornings, my back was very painful
and knew well enough that the
trouble was all due to disordered
kidneys, as the kidney secretions
were Unnatural. I think it was the
strain Of heavy lifting that affected
my kidneys. I got Doan's Kidney
