FR ID AY, DECEMBER n , 1903-
Sometime along in the summer
Uncle Koehler announced that an
appropriation had been set aside
for building a new depot at New­
berg but it seems that it has
gone glimmering.
A crowd o f forty or fifty people
huddled on the outside o f the
little coop at the railway station
in a drizzling rain a few days
ago waiting for a delayed train,
while Uncle Koehler sat in a
warm office in Portland, prob­
ably figuring the interest on that
appropriation which he said had
been set aside for a new depot at
Newberg.
Voters should bear in mind
th at the city election will take
place the first o f the. year. In
municipal affairs, as well as in
state and national, the best men
available are none to o good to
place in power, and since it re­
mains with the people to make
the selection, they have them­
selves to blame if poorly qualified
men hold the offices. With the
present outlook for a very , sub­
stantial grow th in population
during the next year many mat­
ters o f interest will come before
the city council for adjustment
and men o f good judgement
should be selected to fill the
offices.
True to His Convictions.
meaning o f the resignation and
the reasons set forth therein
were understood. A member re­
marked yesterday that it Vvas
probably the only instance on
record where a colored man had
been so highly honored as Rev.
M r. Drew, and that the very
things he disapproved of in his
resignation he had commended
in his addresses before the posts
or wherever he had spoken. It
is supposed that Rev. Drew has
also forwarded his resignation
to
Department

Turner, o f Newberg.”
Whatever Daniel Drew is, he is
conscientious, and when he once
concludes that a course is right
for him, he will pursue it a t all
costs. Though his action w as
unpopular, his friends give him
credit for having the courage of
his convictions.
Died—Florence Brown Rowe.
Last Friday the wires brought
the sad news o f the death at St.
Johns, Washington, o f Mrs.
Florence Rowe, daughter o f
John Brown and sister o f Mrs.
Dr. Harry B. Clough o f this
place.
The bereaved husband
started as soon as possible for
Newberg with the remains, it
being the desire o f the relatives
that the deceased be laid at rest
in the family burying ground be­
side her mother w ho died twenty
years ago.
--------
Very impressive funeral serv­
ices were held in the Friends
church Tuesday morning at ten
o ’clock. < After the singing o f the
hymn, “ Sometime We’ll Under­
stand,” Rev. Stanard read the
eighth chapter o f Romans, it be­
ing announced as the chapter
read in the last family devotions
held by Mr. and Mrs. Rowe. An
appropriate solo was very effec­
tively sung by Mrs. W. L.
Robertson.
A short sermon, full o f hope
and inspiration, was delivered
by Prof. C. E. Lewis w ho was
the favorite instructor o f the
deceased when she was in college
here. It was with much feeling
that he spoke of the sweet,
strong Christian character o f
her w ho was once his pupil and
schoolmate o f many present, and
o f her life o f faithful service.
And as he talked o f her abun­
dant entrance into the “ king­
dom ,” the beautiful sunlight
streamed in, lighting the cross in
the east window, and flooding
the room with the glad promise
o f hope as voiced by Prof. Lewis.
Florence Brown Rowe was
born November 6, 1876, in
Champaign County, Illinois, and
was the third daughter o f her
parents. She came to Newberg
with her parents when four
years old where she grew to
womanhood. She was united in
marriage "to Newton V. Rowe
September 4, 1902, at Endicott,
Washington,
removing later
with her husband to St.Johns
where he engaged in business.
She was an earnest Christian,
having been converted when a
young girl and always lived a
consistent1 Christian life. She
had a birthright membership in
the Friends church to which she
belonged, until since her mar­
riage, when living where there
was no Friends church, she
joined the Baptist church to
which her husband belonged.
She was possessed o f a peculiarly
sweet and gentle disposition, be­
ing always very thoughtful o f
others about her and anxious to
serve her loved ones and was
one w ho was best loved and ap­
preciated by those in her own
home or who knew her most
intimately,___ _ _________ ^

I should tell you wbat a wonderful
effect Chamberlain’s Cough Reme­
dy has produced. The day before
Easter I was so distressed with a
cold and cough that I did not think
to be able to take any duties the
next day, as my voice was almost
choked by the cough. The same
day I received an order from you
for a bottle of your Cough Remedy.
I at once procured a sample bottle
and took about three doses of the
medicine. To my great relief the
cough and cold had completely dis­
appeared and I was able to preach
three times on Easter Day. I
know that this rapid and effective
cure was due to your Cough Reme­

Owing to the many and re­
peated requests o f many w ho
did not get good seats for the
night o f December 18th and o f
several w ho could get no seats
at all, the Knox-Kantner Co.
will appear in Newberg a second
time on the night o f Tuesday
Dec. 22. They will present an
entire change o f program on this
night. The plats for the second
night will be opened at the drug
stores next Saturday morning,
Dec. 12, and those w ho secured
poor seats or noyie at all for the
first engagement are invited to
be the early birds next Saturday.
Someone started the report a
few days ago that the plats were
taken to the college last time be­
fore .being opened to the general
public. No such thing was done,
nor will it be. done this time.
When the plats are opened next
Saturday morning every seat
will be for safp except a small
number reserved by the manage­
ment for those w ho are assisting
in selling tickets, ushering, etc.
