The transportation difficult ties which gave rise to some warrant ed complaint, will be obviated by the additional boat which will assist in carrying the huge crowds back and forth.

RESOLUTIONS

Whereas, It has pleased the AL
mighty creator in the dispensation
of his divine providence, to take from
our midst, our beloved friend and
brother, P. A. Bliss.
Whereas, he has proved himself an
earnest citizen. faithful husband,
q loving father, and a brother we'll
beloved.
Resolved, That we the memb bers of
Scotland lodge No 81 of the l 0. O. F.
extend our heartfelt sympathies. to the
sorrowing and bereaved ones, in their
hour of aff1iction, and we commend
them to Him, whose great attribute &
is love. That in Him they may find
com fort and solace.

thoughtful. he would weigh carefully
the opinions of those who differed
with him and in terse and respectful
language, point cut what to him
seemed error in their reasoning.
He never sought to force his opin-
ions by the weight of dogmatic etate-
ments, but was always ready to give
convincing reasons for the faith that
was in him. He accepted no mans
views because of the position or
standing of him who held them, un
less they coincided with his own ideas
of truth and right. He was ever a
partisan Of right and an opponent of
wrong, regardless of his own personal
interest. He gave no hasty judgment
to h!s pen but his editorials were the
result of deliberate and careful study
of the eubject on which he wrote. 1t
is no detractlon from the merit of
others to say that as an editorial
writer, he had few equals and no
superior in his state The physical
being of him who made you real
newspaper, for many years, has left
US, but the influence of his charac.
ter will remain with US. The world
is better and greater because he lived.

TO THE C1TIzEN-REPUBL1CAN:

TO THE CITIZEN-REPUBLICAN:
You have lost a great editor You
readers have lost wise counselor.
The state has. lost a splendid citizen
and various movements that n AXE for
the good of mankind, have lost q
powerful champion. The history of an
editor may be read in the files of his
newspaper. No Eeulogy that can be
delivered. no biography that can be
written, will so faithfully portray his
moral and mental worth as his edito-
rial columns. In them may be found an
autobiography that was written when
he was unconscious Of the fact that
he was painting his own portrait.
There is no attempt to excuse mis-
takes, no poising for effect no
explaining or shading of motives,
no thought to soften criticism and no
desire ia create good impression.
Like photograph of his physical
persnn taken without his knowledge,
it pictures the man as he is. There
is no retouching to cover defects or
to accentuate good qualities.
No person can read the writings
of P. A. Bliss without realizing the
loss occaeioned by his death. He had
a'keen analytical mind that enabled
him to separate the good from the
bad, the true from the false and to
marshal his facts in their proper or
der. He had facility of expression
in stating his premise and drawing
his deduction. 20 clear and lucid that
the most untutored mind could readily
grasp his meaning.
But this ability. valuable and essen
tial as it is to writer, was not the
element which made him grea: man
and editor. Ability alone could not
do that. Ability, honesty, courage
and industry must combine in his per
son before man can be truthfully
called great. Mr.. Bliss possessed all
these qualities to a marked degree.
He was honest. both by nature and
training. He hated sham and fraud.
He was never guilty of compromising
with wrong even though good might
seem to follow. He loved the right
for the sake of right.
He had the courage of his convic-
tions and was absolutely fearless in
expr essing his viewe. Modest and
