The Republicans of Garfield county
held their county assembly, at the Rex
theater in Rifle last Saturday, and the
session was most interesting and har-
monious throughout, and splendid
ticket was placed before the voters of
the county for their support at the
general election in November.
About 1890 a. m. Ollie Thorson,
chairman of the county central COM
mittee, called the assembly to order
and made brief address, in which he
referred to the splendid administra-
tions of the party, both national and
state, during the past two years. He
complimented the party in this county,
and especially the committeeman and
cOmnlitteewomen of the different pre-
ciucts upon the interest they had TAX
Ell in the precinct elections, as reflect
ed i'll .he splendid attendance at the
assembly.
Due to the thoughtfulness Of Mr..
Thorson, u large portrait of the late
w. $. Iarkison, Mr.. Thorson's imms-
diate predecessor as chairman of tho
county central committee occupied
prominent place on the rostrum. The
chairman referred feelingly to the
loss which the party had sustained
since the last county meeting Of the
party, by the death of several OF its
prominent members, and called on
Judge Nconan, chairman of the memo.
rial committee named some time ag'
wnaa the central c.n mite met Al
Glcnwood, and Judge Noonan present
ed the following memorial resolutions
when on notion were adopted unaniin-
ously by rising vote, the audience
standing with bowed heads for one
minute, as a token of respect to those
who have passed on:

ditions of the county in every way
that it was possible for him to do,
with an unselfishness that left him
with but little Of this worlds goods
at the time of his death.
He presided as chairman of our Re-
publican county central assembly two
years ago with that fairness and abil-
ity that always comes from honest
motives, and whose actions in support
Of the party that he loved were above
reproach.
WILLIAM R. LEE
was one of the best known of the old
er settlers of the county, and whose
activity and honesty in its develop
ment will always be a monument to
one Of our best citizens, one of the
Oldest and truest workers in the coun-
ty for its development, always a Re-
publican to whom the principles of the
party came and were held sacred as
the tenets Of religion, who never wa
vered or faltered in its support, who
never took dishonest advantage of
! anyone or threw a friend. Always a
delegate, helping us in our assemblies
and with whom it was pleasure to as
sociate in our election campaigns, &C.
cepting success or defeat with that
geniality and dignity born of true
gentleman, we shall miss him.
DAVID JAMES
an earnest, industrious, honest man,
one of our earliest pioneers, who be-
lieved that the way to build up
country was by hard work and atten-
tion in the reclamation of the unim-
proved public domain to which he gave
his almost undivided attention, and by
his work in reclaiming the beautiful
ranch left to his family demonstrated
that his theory was right. Modest, re-
/ firing and unassuming, he only de-
sired to be known as worker in the
ranks, Republican of the old school,
void Of partisanship, he believed that
to be Republican was equivalent to
being right and always contributed
his assistance cheerfully in carrying
out its principles.
JOHN A. MacRAE
one Of the best known Of the early
business men of the county, loved and
respected in the city in which he
lived for many years, and by all who
knew him.
Foreign-born, he came to this country
in his early manhood and throughout
his life gave to it his best efforts and
most patriotic devotion; man Of more
than ordinary intelligence, educated
and refined, he early affiliated with
the Republican party and gave to it
his continued allegiance and support,
representing our people in official ca
pacity for many years and always with
universal satisfaction, regardless of
party.
An active, intelligent worker in our
assemblies and campaigns, his absence
leaves vacancy that cannot well be
filled.
Regardless of politics, the county
can little afford the loss of such men.
Their presence was an inspiration and
with the deepest feelings Of regret at
their absence and demise, we offer
this our last tribute Of respect to their
memory.

LOCAL HISTORY vTsUALTZED
(By Isabel Bozmanl

What would you think Of a
pageant for the impressing of his
tory of our county upon the minds
or our children. some anniversary
of church or village in which all the
community would take part? Let
me tell you of this lake pageant I
have seen.
Chautauqua county is rich in
legend and story, with manv Incl
dents of early Indian and French
history. and then the scenes of
camp meeting at the beginning OF
the assembly. Think now of a great
platform on the lake with the nat
ural advantages Of the shores, for
large audience. So attracted by
the prospect were the people. that
two hours before the performance
all had places on chairs, boxes. logs,
and newspapers for protection, on
the beach
The prelude is of pre- historic
times. Father Time and Memory
hold converse Voices are heard:
"Join o Friends in Memory
Song" Soon the Spirit of the Hills
and the Spirit of the Sky arrive.
When the Spirit of the Lake ap-
pears, she dances on the platform
with all the gliding steps that the
suggestive present day gives Epi-
sode I: The Indian and French
Era. An Indian Encampment is
seen with hunters returning from
the chase and presenting the chief
with part of the spoil Music of the
proper tone can be heard When
two braves leave canoe. they

kellunge, Father Time" then
says: at was thus the name Chau-
tau-qua was derived, because these

When they crossed the Erie's por-
tage
Found the captured fish still living,
Threw it into Erie's waters
Where no Muskellunge existed,
And thereafter in their language
Gave the name Jah-dah gwah-

Old French music is now heard
and canoes appear bearing La Sale

while the Indians watch.

August Sale OF Savings Certificates

AS an indication that the govern
ment savings plan has taken a very
strong hold on the people Of Nc
Connelsville, Postmistress Birch
has announced that during the
month of August the sale of Treas
ury Savings Certificates amounted
to s2,100.
"More and more people are be-
coming regular investors in Treas
ury Savings Certificates, due to the
fact that they are absolutely safe,
pay liberal rate of interest, have
certain value at all times and can
be redeemed at any time prior to
maturity" Postmistress Birch stat
ed She also called attention to the
fact that these certificates, if held
five years, increase 25 per cent in
value over their cost price They
can be secured through the local
post office in denominations of
$1,000. 800 and $25 at cost prices
of $500, $50 and $40 each, re-
spectiyely.

ly woman educationally fitted in the
u. S. for the office. The names Of
