Townsend Memorial
To Jacob MaiiheWson

To the Widow and Family and
Friends of Jacob J.. Mathewson, and
to the Members of Townsend Club
No. l, of the City of Butte:
We, the undersigned Committee
on Resolutions, present:
Jacob J.. Mathewson was born in
the state of Illinois, 81 years ago.
A miner by occupation he, with his
wife and family, came to Butte 10
years ago. The early hours of the
morning of February l, 1888, found
him prepared to take that journey
which sooner or later we must all
take.
Our brother was a Christian
gentleman. He was a member OF
the Four Square Gospel Church OF
our city. He was one of the earliest
members of Townsend Club No. l,
a strong believer in the brotherhood
of humanity. Death did not come
upon him as an enemy. Our brother
was sustained and soothed by an
unfaltering trust. He approached
the end like one that wraps the
drapery of his bed about him and
lies down to pleasant dreams. To
our brother death was but an adj
venture.
We, his brothers, friends, and as
sociates, will miss his physical
presence, but we realize that his
death did not bring extinction to us,
merely a change of place.
Our brother had almost reached
the allotted span. His life was well
spent. First in the raising of his
family and second in service
amongst his fellow men. When oft
times our services and gatherings
would become sour and l~istless, per-
haps at times heated by argument
his voice, accompanied by that OF
his wife, would sing US again into
that state of harmoniousness where
he liked to walk.
Whereas, by the passing from this
life Of our brother we have lost 6
sincere friend, a hard worker in oul
ranks. And while we know his
physical place will be hard to fill
yet we comfort ourselves with the
hope expressed in the words Of the
poet Longfellow:
There is no DEATH What seems SC
is transition;
This life of mortal breath
Is but a suburb of the life elysian,
Whose portal we call Death"
And so to our brother we say:
Let death between US be as naught
A dried and vanished stream,
Your JOY be the reality,
Our suffering like the dream"
Resolved, that we, the members
of Townsend Club No. l, in regular
meeting assembled, express the re
gard we had for our brother anc

gress who passed this legislation,
should be barred forever from pub
lie service. They should be defeated
by the people.
The Silver Bow Trades and Labor
Council is sending its secretary to
Helena on February oath to try and
secure a release of some of the
money that was appropriated by the
last session of the Montana legisla-
ture. There is still $4,000 in this
fund. Under the Montana law the
counties must have exhausted all OF
their funds before they car receive
any contributions from the state. AT
the present time the state of Mon
tana is carrying all the cost of di-
rect relief of the county of Silver
Bow. This includes food, clothing,
etc, and amounted to about $4,000
in January. The county of Silver
Bow needs more money from the
state to carry on its relief activities.
Reports also indicate that the same
condition exists in other counties
Under these conditions, the unions
are wondering why the $4,000 sur
plus should be placed into the gen
eral fund as contemplated March 2,
and buried. If it is placed there, il
cannot be taken out again for relief
purpose, and it will make it that
much more difficult at the next leg
islature to get further appropria-
tons.
Mr. James Combo, zone super
visor of the Works Progress Admin
istration, has asked for an additional
quota of 1900 in order that people
may not be destitute.
1t is estimated in reliable quarters
that there is more industrial I'M
employment here now than at any
time since the WPA was inaug-
urated. The WPA requirements are
greater than at any time since il
began.

Continued from Page y

the bigger merchandise establish
ments formerly owned by the Nor
mons or the Mormon church, namely
Auerbachs and O'Brien-Keef or
some such a name, probably started
by a couple of Irishmen. 1t is a
good guess that they weren't Nor
mon at the time the store was start
ed. All of this took place, according
to the rumor, during the days of the
depression. The story is told in Salt
Lake City that the Jews got hold of
some Of the building and loan asso-
Citations through the same tactics, by
forcing the value of the stock down
and forcing the Mormons out. The
whole intrigue, if such a thing there
was, makes an interesting story.
A rather peculiar incident hap
pened while l was there in n of
the commercial establishments. I
don't know if it was run by Nor
mons, Jews or gentiles, as non-Mor-
mons are called. Some people had
purchased a set of silverware in the
Paris store or one of the department
stores and asked the attendant how
much it would cost to have initials
engraved on each piece. The pur-
chaser was informed that it would
cost about 5 cents for each unit.
The lady left with her purchase and
went to Anderson's Jewelry Store
where she inquired of the clerk how
much it would cost. This clerk re-
piled, IS or 6 cents for each article"
Just at that moment a pompous in
dividual came forward and took
charge of the situation and remarked
that the engraving of each piece of
silverware would cost at least Is
cents. He suggested that the lady
buy another piece of silverWare for
the money which she anticipated
spending for the engraving and dis
regard that part of the present, The
moral of the story is this: The jewel
ry store apparently was irritated
because the woman had purchased
the silverware at another store and
it was a polite rebuke to the Gus
toner not to resort to such unethical
conduct again. Of course it is doubt
full if this lady will ever go back to
Anderson's for anything. It is re-
markable how many merchants stay
in business with their uncouth, I'M
gentlemanly and ungenerous atti-
tude toward customers.
All in all, however, the situation
in Salt Lake City is far better APP
parently than it is in Montana or
at least in Silver Bow County. The
Mormons are a thrifty people and
do believe in the preservation Of the
health of the body. They taboo cof-
fee, tea, and other stimulants, in
Guiding tobacco and alcohol. At the
present time members of the church
are being taken care of by the
church organization. At any rate
that is what they told me. Utah has
experienced one of the most delight
full winters in its history and some
of the bushes and shrubs facing the
south are just about ready to bloom.
Many half-formed buds can be seen
on the rose bushes.
