Veteran Editor
Buried Today
John M. Bowen Passed Away
Monday
Conducted The Delaware
Ledger for Thirty-five~
Years

John M. Bowen, for nearly 80
years editor of the Delaware Ledg-
er, died last Monday morning,
after an illness extending over
period of several years.
Mr.. Bowen was born in Cecil
Co.. Nd. June %, 1855 and was
the son of the late Mr.. and Mrs.
William Bowen. He learned the
printing trade at the plant Of the
Cecil County Democrat at Elkton
and npon the completion of his
apprenticeship accepted a position
in Savannah, Ga. on the Savannah
News. At this time, he married
Miss Annabel Falls Of Elkton who
accompanied him to Savannah
where they lived for several years.
About 1885 he and his brother,
Levi X, Bowen purchased the Del
aware Ledger which they conduct
ed continuously until last Novem-
ber when rapidly failing health
made it impossible for Mr.. Bowen
to continue the business longer.
Mr.. Bowen's illness dates back
for several years when a skin di-
sease developed, which rapidly un-
dernrined his health. Eearly in the
fall he suffered stroke of para
lysis as a result of which he has
since been be-ridden. Subsequent
strokes followed, finally causing
his death.
Several weeks ago, he was re-
moved to the hospital in the hope
that he might receive skilled,
scientific treatment. He grew
steadily weaker, however, and ar
rangenents were made on Satur-
day to bring him home on Mon
day morning. Early that morning
he passed away and the body was
brought to the residence of his
brother, Postmaster Levi K. Bow
Ell with whom he lived since the
death of his wife 26 years ago.
Funeral services were held this
afternoon at his late home on West
Main Street, at 2 o'clock and in
terment made at Head of Christi
ana cemetery.
Mr.. Bowen was a genial, kindly
man, beloved by a large circle of
friends young and old. A rarely
sympathetic nature, a gentle, char
table outlook on life, drew to him
the affections of all with whom he
was associated. An unusually
close attachment, broken only by
the few years spent in Georgia,
existed between himself and his
brother Levi. The brothers were
inseparable, a fact which was al
ways the subject of comment for
those who witnessed this instance
of unusual fraternal affection.
One sister Mrs. Richard Foard
who makes her home with her
daughter, Mrs. George Carter; and
two brothers, Edward, who resides
in Elkton, and Postmaster l.. K
Bowen, survive.

ST. THOMAS CHURCH
PLANS CARNIVAL
Committees Named for Af-
fair to be Held After
Easter

Members of st. Thomas church
are rapidly perfecting plans for a
big indoor carnival which they
purpose holding sometime after
Easter. The place and date have
not yet been decided upon but they
hope to be able to secure the "Y"
rooms for the week after Easter.
The proceeds of the affair will
be applied to the bell fund. The
church has long desired to secure
bell and the Guild and the
church members raised a consid-
cradle sum for that purpose and
for general church improvement.
A bell was purchased last year
and after long delay in transit,
was hung with appropriate cere-
mony. The tone, however, was not
pleasing to the pastor and the con-
gregation, whereupon the bell was
returned. Numerous efforts have
since been made to secure one
whose tone would compare with
that at St. Johns. With the ad-
ditional funds raised through the
proposed carnival, the congrega-
tion hopes to purchase such bell.
The Carnival Committees re-
Gently appointed are as follows:

Carter, chairman, DR.. George A.

VOTERS FAVOR

SPECIAL DISTRICT

Draft Resolution of
Thanks to P. S.
dupont

At the second public meeting
called by the local Board of Edu-
cation, the citizens present by a
vote OF Sc to 6, determined to dis
solve the special district and be-
come a part of the county system.
A number Of those present did
not vote and the school board
members, all of whom favored re-
tention of the special district, also
refrained from voting.
Edward L. Richards, president
of the board, called upon Francis
A. Cooch to preside. He stated
briefly the purpose of the meeting
and asked for free discussion. R.
S. Gallaher explained that the
tentative budget for the year as
presented at the previous meet
ing when it was thought the vote
for next year would reach $1.5O,
had been carefully revised and the
rate would notexceed S1.01.
Considering the proposed bond
issue to be $140,00O, the limit of
the districts bonding capacity, the
budget, which had been put on the
blackboard previous to the meet
ing read as follows:

Moscow is fortunate in having a
gasoline and oil station here, which is
able to supply not only the local de-
mand but the demand from 4 wide
territory surrounding the city. Auto
tourists visiting Spokane and other
Washington points say it is difficult to
get enough gasoline to return to Mos

Idaho cars. In Moscow cars from
Washington or any other state are
welcomed and are supplied with gas

pie. Moscow leads in many ways. J

There was but a light attendance at
the chamber of m luncheon on
Wednesday, for the eason that many
persons forgot that it was Wednesday,
mistaking Monday, July 5, for Sunday
and consequently closing a day. But
there should be a big attendance at
next Wednesdays meeting. President
Oversmith says he has a suggestion
that will insure $50, 900 added to the
volume Of business done in Moscow
next September, and that every bus
house in town may share in this
increased business. This ought to
bring out a good attendance at the
luncheon next Wednesday,, for if there
is anything thai will draw a Moscow
crowd it is the prospect of added prof

DENTISTS.

While it is not our practice to re-
ply to communications in the "Contri-
button Box which is open to the pub
lie for discussion of public matters,
we cannot refrain from replying to
the communication of DR.. l.. r. Boyd,
of the state dental board, on the re-
cent decision of the court in the mat
ter of revocation of licenses of dent
lists, who had advertised in the news
papers.
Either DR.. Boyd or the judges who
heard the evidence, tried the case and
rendered the decision is in error, and
we take it that the court probably un-
derstood the points at issue better than
DR.. Boyd. That the court understood
that the right of dentists to advertise
was an issue in the trial is evident
from this quotation from the decision.
Regarding the right of dentists to
advertise in newspapers the court
holds that a person may freely speak
and write upon any subject he chooses
81 jOllE do hC uoCo III say Ill l.
which tends to corrupt the pubic
morals, welfare or safety, or to in
jure any person in his character or
reputation"
We cannot conceive of the court
making such a decision if, as DR.. Boyd
contends, the right to advertise in
the newspapers were not in question.
The courts decision is certainly plain
on that point.
That the dental act, which was "fa-
thered and fostered and put through
the legislature by the dental board"
is unjust, arbitrary and u%nconstitu-
tional is the finding of the court,
which says:
1.-THE court finds that the procedure
provided for by the dental act is
arbitrary, unreasonable and unfair, in
that the same committee hat insti-
tutes the proceedings shall heal the
same and recommend the order to be
entered"

In regard to DR.. Boyd's contention

WEBB BROTHERS ARE INDICTED ON FIRST
 DEGREE CHARGES
S. Mack Adams, 76, Is Exon erated in Killing
 Case

w. D. and Nick Webb, farmers and brothers of Plum Bayou, were indict- ed on charges of first degree murder yesterday by the grand jury. They had not been arrested late last night, but are expected to surrender themselves today. They are charged with the killing of King Waters, farmer, also of the Plum Bayou enighborhood. Waters was killed by the Webbs while in his field, he being share cropper on their place. The killing followed la difficulty between Waters and the Webbs the day previous in which one of the Webbs was shot. The killing occurred June II. The Webbs were out on bond on charges of manslaugh- ter, bail having been granted after a habeas corpus hearing before Judge R. H. Williams.
 The grand jurors exonerated S. Mack Adams, 76 years old, who killed John Bruce, 56 years old, his father in-law, near Wabbaseka, on June 14. Self defense was proven to the satis- faction of the jurors. Twenty true bills were found. The jurors ad- journed to meet again on September I25.
