generality and were delighted with
their stop. When leaving they stat
ed that it was with reluctance, since
during all their travels both in tor-
eign countries and in America, they
had never found a more delightful
place for recuperation and enjoy
ment. The pure cold water, the in
vigorating atmosphere, properly tern-
pered for comfort, the beautiful park
and scenery did it all.

The visitors have traveled a very
great deal over the United States
visiting comfort and scenic resorts
and were unanimous in saying that
this trip would be remembered as one
of the most interesting and pleasant
ever enjoyed by them.
They expect
to go again and take other friends
with them.
In Memorial»
Miss Caroline Frances Carpenter,
oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. C.
Carpenter, Liberty street, died Sun
day morning at 3:30 after a long ill
ness of tuberculosis.
Miss Carpenter was born February
22nd, 1888, at Forest River, North
Dakota, where she grew to woman
hood and was universally loved for
her sweet disposition and helpful
life. At the age of 9 she united with
the First Presbyterian Church of
Forest River and ever since has been
an active worker especially in the
Christian Endeavoj Society, and a
consistent Christian.
As soon as they discovered the
presence
of the dread
‘White
Plague,” her parents brought her
West, hoping a change of climate
might benefit her and they were in
Eastern A^ashingtcp a short time,
coming to Ashland last January. In
all her suffering she was very pa
tient and uncomplaining and fell
sweetly asleep, awaking, we are sure,
tn the presence of him whom she
served so faithfully acre. Saturday
she received a box from her old C. E.
friends in North Dakota, containing
many beautiful remembrances and
expressions of the love and apprecia
tion of her life-long companions.
The funeral service was held from
her late home on Liberty street,
Monday, August 2nd, 2:30 p. m.,
conducted by Rev. Ward W. Mac-
Henry,

church and the interment was In
Mountain View Cemetery. A quartet

SPANISH REBELS
DECLARE REPUBLIC
Don Jaime ’de Ilourbon to Lead the
Revolution.
Washington, D. C.—The House
Satuduy adopted the conference re
port on the tariff bill, 195 to 183
Tweúy. Republicans voted against
the eport and two Democrats for it.
The entire Pacific Northwest delega
tion, except Poindexter, of Washing
ton, voted for the bill.
Minn of Illinois, in a sensational
spee'h said he would vote against
the report unless the rates on pulp
and print paper as reduced by the
hous, were retained.
He declared
that Canada would take such action
regarding pulp wood and print paper
as tn plact} an almost prohibitory
price upon paper in this country
Payne appealed to his Republican
colleagues to stand by the bill, say
ing that if they wanted to drive their
party into chaos they could vote
against it. But he said it would be
a delusion to vote against the bill
upon I he idea that the Dingley rates
would be continued.
Payne estimates that the increase
of revenue that would result from
the enactment of the bill will be
$4 0.000.000 annually.
Average Rate Higher.
Champ Clark, the Democratic
leader, said President Taft had been
imposed on by being made to believe
that the conference report was really
a revision downward.
Clark sub
mitted a table showing that th? av
erage rate of the report is 1.73 per
cent higher than the average rate
of the Dingley law. If scores of new
items In the report, but not in the
Dingley law. were added, Clark said,
the average increase would be at
least 2 per cent.
