Wilson, the subject ol this sketch, was born in the state ol .Missouri on May 3, 183:!, and died at lilt home near tbe town of Kiddle, Doug las cannty, Oregon, on Saturday August 21, lli'Ji, having lived to the ripe old age ol 0j years, 3 months and IS days. He croMwd tbe plains to the Taciflc coast in 1845, settling first in the Will arnette valley. He was then a yoang man. hearty, brave and ventureaom". Iu IHol he remotod to D iuglaa county and one me a roaident ol Cow Creek valley, securing as a home tbe beautiful farm upon which ba ba. since lived. Ia lH,Vlie was married to Miss Holda Mynatt, a sister ol Watson R. Mynatt, now deceased, who was ao old time set tler ol this valley. Mrs. Wilson lived only a few year, dying lo 1800. Ia 1861 Mr. Wilaon waa married tbe second time to Mias Ilattie Haskioa wbo survives him. The issue ol tbie marriage was seven children, six of whom are living. Mr. Wilson was an earnest Christian, having been a member of tbe Baptist church lor many years, i'revioos to bis denth ha requested tbat tbe Odd Fellows, ol w hich ba waa a member, should borv him, and tbat Itev. W. ti. Miller preach bis funeral, which will be done at Kid dle on tbo first fianday in September. He was elected county commissioner in June, 1S9J, lor tbe term of four years. Mr. Wilson was a man highly es teemed by his neighbors as a mao of s erling wvirtb, honest, Industrious, and a good neigh nor. He waa a firm believer in the principles of Odd Felloasbip and bis life was an exemplification of tbe dociriue of that order. When the final call came, it waa tbat order wbich stood at bia bedsine; it was tbeir bands tbt laid out tbe inanimate form and laid the I hi lv in the ail- nt tomb. S.owly but surely tbe old pioneers are passing away. The President on the Situation. i'mident McKinly stated to a New York Journal representative tbat it honld be a source ol pleasure to every American citizen to know tbat there waa a return of prosperity to the country. "The caue of the present boom in tbe Wer," be said, "is undoubtedly due in a irreat measure to the large crops and htgli prices caused by the failure of crops iu cllier countries. But the fact tbat prosperity bus set in iu tbe East cannot oe accounted lor iu any other way than ry the wise policy ol tbe republican paaty iu restoring a protective tariff. "llio preaeut boom ia not spasmodic; it will continue to increase, and uot only the manufacturers, but dealers generally w ill eoon recognize tbat with a protective t.inlTand sound principles tbe country will be proetierous and remain in that conaition. w itn the restoration ot con- ujence win come a restoration ol pros perity. ' What does Senator Teller mean in say ing tbat tbe McKinley administration w nts to retire the greenbacks and make an dthts payable in gold J'oea be not know that all debts have been virtually payable in gold ever tince 187'J?
