The Ticket and the President it Will Help to Elect.
The Reporter presents this week the presidential ticket as it will appear in this county at the comiujy elec­
tion. Twenty-four thousand of them are now in course of printing at this office, and will be completed this week.
The form is already marked as a majority of the Reporter's readers and the people of the state of Oregon will
mark it. They want Wm. McKinley to remain president Gaze on that honest and earnest face. See reflected
in those lineaments that patriotic solicitude for the welfare of tne great nation over which he presides which has
guided his course during the past four years of critical and unexpected emergencies. Train your mental vision
on the undignified and evasive campaign of his chief competitor, Wm. J. Bryan, the imperial dictator of the
amalgamated everything-else. Note the confusion of doctrines in a vain attempt to cater to the different parties
he represents. Remember the ragged clothes you were forced to wear in the early nineties, and the prosperous
condition of the country today. This done, you will not belong in making up your mind, if you are an honest
seeker after truth, to cast your vote with the majority, be you democrat, populist, prohibitionist, or what not.

WITH A HKtlAHKABI.F.
CAREER.
Mrs. Margaret Watson Burton, who
died at the home of her son, Heury He­
ber, in Portland, October 18th, was an
Oregon pioneer of 1844, and a woman
with a remarkable career. She and her
husband, with three little children ar­
rived at the mouth of the Columbia on
the 17th day of March in that year, from
New Zealand, via Honolulu, in the
American brig Heber. The vessel was
nine days sailing up the Columbia, and
cast anchor opjxjsite what is now the
city of Portland, on March 26. So far as
is known, Mrs. Burton was the last sur­
vivor of that expedition. The family
made their headquarters in Captain Sil­
vester's cabin on the east side of the riv­
er for several weeks and finally moved
up the river near Oregon City. The fol­
lowing August they moved to the Burton
donation claim, on a part of which now
s ands the town of North Yamhill. She
resided on the farm 34 years and after­
wards moved to Portland, where she
lived ten years.
Mrs. Burton was the mother of 15 chil­
dren, 12 of whom are still living. Henry
Heber Burton, a resident of Portland;
Doc Beu L., Leunoir and Miss G. Burton,
Mrs. Kate B. Lake and Mrs. Lois An­
thony, of San Francisco, Mrs. Lizzie
Rogers, of Santa Rosa, Cal,, Charles W.
Burton and Mrs. Alma E. Hawley, of
Oakland, Cal., John J. Burton, of Daw­
son City, E. R. Burton, of North Yam­
hill, C. Burton, sheriff of Wahkiakum
county, Wash., live to revere her mem­
ory. The three who preceded her to the
tomb were Misses Amy and Jemima Bur­
ton and Mrs. Eliza T. Moore.
Thirty grandchildren, eight great­
grandchildren, and a host of relatives in
various portions of the world mourn her
loss.
Margaret Watson was born in Lan­
cashire, England, June 21, 1822, and was
therefore in her 79th year when she died.
She was the youngest child of Charles
and Bridget Watson, and with her par­
ents leit the old country to become a pio­
neer of Australia, in 1831. Charles Wat­
son, her father, was su|)erintendent of
government works in Australia and in
I834 was sent to Tasmania, where she
agaiu became a pioneer at the age of 12.
In 1836 she moved with her parents to
New Zealand, for the third time becom­
ing the pioneer of a new country.
When she was 14 years old she went
with her sister and brother-in law (Cap­
tain Carew, father of General Carew of
the British army) and his wife to the
Philippine islands, stopping at Manila.
At 15 she was shipwrecked while going
from Tasmania to New Zealand and
drifted to the East Indies, where they
stayed several weeks while the vessel
was being repuired.
I11 New Zealand she married John
Janies Burton, August 14, 1839. In the
lull of the following year Mrs. Burton,
with her husband, and two baby girls,
started for the Sandwich islands on the
sailing vessel Heber. Near the Marque­
sas islands her son, Henry Heber, now
of Portland, was born. The family
stayed six weeks in Honolulu and then
started for the Columbia river, which
was reputed to be a land of milk and
honey. Her husband died in Portland
21 years ago. Her remains were laid to
rest by his side in the old burial ground
near the farm at North Yamhill, Mon­
day morning at half past ten o’clock.
Tne funeral services were held in the M.
E. church at North Yamhill, the services
being conducted by Rev. Joseph Hoberg,
who has officiated at the marriage and
burial of members of her family for 40
years
Mrs. Burton was a member of
the Methodist church, an earnest Chris­
tian, always gentle and forgiving.

There is not much grain sown so far

seeding their farms down to grass and
clover, thinking that stock raising wiU
pay better than raising grain.
