EARLr-DAY UNION COUNTY
' MINER DEAD AT FRISGH
Word has been received of the death
at his home in San Francisco of Sam
uel Williamson. The deceased was a
cousin of Samuel B. and John T. Will
iamson and Mrs. Hannah Rogers of
this city. He was an early resident
of Union county and.. was for a con-
sulerab.e period encaged in mining at
Sparta when that part of the country
belonged to Union county.
After leaving Sparta, "Sam. as he
was known by everyone, went to San
r rancisco where he has been living
the past twenty-five or thirty years.
Kis death was indirectly a result of
the big earthquake and fire in San
Francisco. The house which he oc
cupied at the time of the shock was
totally demolished and Mr. William
son was thrown into the street where
he remained in an unconscious- state
for several hours. The ordeal pro
duced a serious effect on his nervous
system. A short time ago he was con
siderably jarred in a hotel elevator
and he relapsed into the condition in
which he was found the morning af
ter the big quajce. He was removed
to a hospital and did not (recover.
Since his removal to San Francisco
Mr. Williamson made frequent visits
to La Grande 'the last of which was
but two or three years ago. The news
of his death will be received with deep
regret by his many, old friends and
acquaintances and especially among
the old-time miners of the Sparta dis
trict. . .
Miners' Reunion at Sparta
There was held at Sparta last Wed
nesday a reunion of the old miners of
that camp, or of those who survive as
well as those who have come later.
Most of the present residents of -the
Sparta district arrived from fifteen
to twenty-five years after those who
first worked the dirt around the old
town. Among the very early ones
there remains now only Capt. Chas.
Craig, who is marshal of Richland;
Jim Holcomb, a rancher, Dan Moore,
Dr. J. H. Fake, who are still resi
dents of Baker county. To tbis list
of survivors should be added John T.
Williamson of La Grande and Uncle
Billy Packwood, of Baker.
But what a list there is of those
whose pursuit of earthly treasure has
ended: Rufus Perkins was for many
years the proprietor of the old stone
store where the reunion was held,
Dixie Lang, one time"county commis
sioner; Wash Moody, Bill Arble, about
the onty democrat in the camp and
who regularly was sent to the demo
cratic county convention as delegate
from Sparta precinct; W. W. Ross,
store-keeper and ex-representative;
Ed. Whitney, Jim Sommers, Dad Hen
'derson, Jim Westerdale, violinist; Win.
Ellis. Sc'ottv McKinnell, Win. Ains-
worth, Ed. and Wm. Wilkinson, Job
Curies, Steve Pindlar, Aaron Weller,
and many others prominent in affairs
when Sparta belonged to Union coun-
ty, are included in the list of absent
ones.

GOODRICH
THRIFT does net mean Penurious
ness! '
Its first principle consists in
getting FULL VALUE for each Dollar of
Income expended.
Getting less is not complimentary to the
intelligence of even a Millionaire.
I Being liberal and generous, in affairs
where it is proper and deliberate to be so,
differs widely from being thriftless, thought
less and careless in buying things, on a busi
ness basis.
A habit of "Jumping at Conclusions,"
instead of Thinking oxit these Conclusions,
costs many a man a lifetime Un-success.
TOO many Americans indolently
act upon the shallow theory that
an article "must be" WORTH
more, merely because it Costs more.
They are thus taxed a heavy price, all
through life, for such an indolent habit of.
Thought.
They work hard, industriously and in
telligently, to acquire money.
Then (for their personal needs) they
"Spend it with a Spade."
Is this complimentary to the judgment
of even the Wealthiest?
Do people become Wealthy who acquire
the careless HABIT of "Spending Money,"
instead of intelligent, thoughtful BUYING
with it?
MONEY cannot make BETTER
Fabric Tires, at ANY price,
than Goodrich 47-Year Exper
ience, -300, 000, 000 lbs. Purchasing-Power,
and Deliberate Intention, are now producing.
No Rubber Concern in the world could
afford to offer the low Fair-List Prices here
quoted, on Fabric Tires (for such HIGH
quality) without the enormous Goodrich
VOLUME, which so reduces Cost as to make
these lowest prices possible.
When, therefore, you pay MORE than
these Goodrich Fair-List prices for ANY
Fabric Tire, you are NOT getting "better"
Tires.
