A RECORD TO
BE PROUD OF
R.i H. Knox, a merchant of tins
city, last week made complaint to
Salem, that on June 14th' he received
notice of a consignment of potatoes
that had been shipped to him from
Gaston and up to the date of writ
ing, Friday; June 18th the shipment
had not been received. The ship
ment is of last year's stock and as
the new stock is coming into the
market every day he wanted to
know what recourse if any he could
have against the railroad .company
if obliged to receive the goods when
delivered, under the circumstances.
In reply he has been advised that It
is the opinion of the -railroad com
mission that the only remedy at hand
in the evint of a failure to reach
an amicable settlement with the com
pany.in an action at law to recover
the amount of damages.
From Gaston, situated in the north
ern part of Yamhill county, to Inde
pendence, Polk county, is a distance
of about forty miles, or an average
of about ten miles a day is the re
cord for rapid transit by the South
ner Pacific on the West Side.

HAS RELATED
TO J.S.COOPER
Among the dauntless and hardy pi
oneers that came with Iaulel IUk.u
on hia return to Kentucky were Fred-
lick and Dorothy Cooper and family,
seeking a home In tha "dark and
bloody bunting ground." They choae
a placa to build a home and settled
on Beaver crrek In Wayne county.
Kentucky, where tha Cooper family
hava since realded. They were of
German parentage. Among the chil
dren born to thla pair wii Henry
Cooper who married Patience Mark.
To thetn wa born May 14. 1SU, Wil
liam Armtrong Cooper, than whom
no atronger nor greater man ever
lived in Wayne county. And moat
truly one whose life and -character
ha meant so much for the general
good of the people of hi native coun
ty. Hla life for the greater part wa
pent near the place of hi birth,
about twelve miles south west of Mon
ticello, In Wayne county.
In hla 22d year he professed faith
In Christ, a .having found peace and
forgiveness of sin through faith in
Jesus Christ.
Shortly afterwards he united with
Heaver Creek Baptist church, being
baptised by Mathew Floyd. He re
mained a member of this church until
hla death ou the 31 day of March.

Ht was licensed to preach In the
year 1S3.", and was ordained to the
full work of the gospel ministry in

senger were abundantly fruitful. He
haut.sed about 3000 persons during
his ministry, and performed th car
riage ceremony for about 1300 couples
He served his home church at Beav

served other churches from one to!
fourteen years. He rendered faith

benvllle. lie also served one year as
missionary to Texas. He labored
Irmif. well and wisely. There is no
standard by which hij work can be
fully estimated. The books of the
last day will lovcai the abundance of
his labors. Wayne county can nev
er adequately meet her obligations
to this servant of God. He was a
strong, true, clean and manly char
acter. His intellect was of a very
high order, and as a thinker,, clear
and analytic, and even to the last
years of his life he had a clear con
ception of the great current questions
.of civic and religious thoughts and
I niv. iiinva with strong and clear
convictions on all moral issues he
was faithful to the utmost in the de
fense of what he believed to be the
"truth as it is in Jesus". Few men
of his time new the word or imu
more fully than he. He was truly a
mighty man in the scriptures. Like
wise it was a rare privilege to hear
him tell his experience of grace in
the forgiveness of sin, the conscious,
peaceful and joyous presence of the
Spirit of the Lord with him from the
riav of his conviction to the end

abidine hone in Jesus as a blessed
personal Savior. For almost three
quarters of a century he was the
champion of truth against every at
tack of Satan's hosts.
About the year 183 he was united
in marriage to Miss Sally Cooper,
daughter of Daniel Cooper. Through
many years of his ministry she was
indded his co-laborer in the( work of
the Lord and is now wearing a crown
of rejoicing for a large share of the
good accompli'shed by her husband,
