error was in sending Mis Liszie Early

Old man B. B. Park anally "passed in
bis checks" on tbe morning of the
16th. He had been ailing for about a
year. Aloug in May or June of last
year the doctor suggested that be take a
course of fencing. This seemed to send
the cold shivers op and down uu spmai
column, and be has been weak and
trembly ever since, but managed to keep
op a pretty good front during the sum
mer and fall, and did business at tbe
old stand, Bridge and iirnt streets.
During tbe winter mouths, however, he
baa kept pretty quiet- Along toward

prepared, whd tne promise oi a new

and so the end came as above stated.
During bia life be waa quite of a social
nature, frequently giving entertainments,
with clubs aud balls, often with crowds
of hooters and rooters from a distance.
He was not very religiously inclined, for
quite often, these entertainments were
given on the first day of tbe week, but
after all he waa not such an awfully bad
fellow. It waa just bis way of having a
little recreation after a week of toil. His
friends met at midnight on the day of
his departure to prepare the last sad
rites and to erect a monument suitable
to bis memory. It waa a very quiet and
solemn meeting. The Hon. Jim Ems
delivered the funeral oration, while
Prof. Bert Host read an original poem
suitable to tbe occaaioa. Meanwhile
"Teck," "Chip," Cleve and Ray, Billy,
Ed and othera wept profusely. The
monument waa wrought out oi cedar.

Plan to Halve Immediate Oaen for
Public Highways.
Up in Benton county, where, from all
ranorts. the roads are as bad or worse
than they are in Columbia county, there
is much agitation in regard to raising
funds lor tuew improvement, ana one oi
the policies proposed is the bonding of
the county, in regaru ki which . ' .
Morgan, candidate for state senator,
writing to the local paper, says i "
"In the matter of the county roads,
which seems to be attracting particular
attention at thla time I beg to endorse
the sentiment so far expressed as to the,
necessity for good roads and tbe benefits
to be derived therefrom.
"There is no one thing that speaks
more for the enterprise of the cltltens of
a community, nor that makes a better
impression on the new comer, and is
more attractive than nice, neat pub
lic buildings, good roads and nicely
kept bomes and farms. I take it that it
ia generally agreed that we must have a
betterment In our public thoroughfares.
But the question is bow best to obtain
them. This is a matter that may re
quire some legislative consideration. It
will not do to depend upon private con
tributions either in work or money to
supplement our present road tax, be
cause all men will not agree as to the
amount they should contribute, nor
wfeen and bow it should be bestowed.
The only just and equitable way is by
taxation, which will reach and fall on
all alike, both resident and nonresident,
according to wealth and ability to pay-
It has been suggested that tbe couotyJ
be bonded.
"As a rule I am opposed to bonding
fnture generations. But ia this case, aa
