yesterday was attending to his official',,,-. but t0 .ddreM them also to tho
duties and conversing witn nis irienas

With his passing tbe county has lost
one of Its most loyal and upright
cltlietu. His acts of kindness and
generosity will stand out long In the
memory of his friends and neighbors.
Following a short Illness from the
Grippe, Judge Gowen had so faiTe
covered aa to again be out. He was
taken ill again late last evening, pass

Massachusetts, seventy years ago last
March?- He 'was the-"-ybungeev-ot
twelve children and with his mother
widowed at an early age, be was ob
liged to undertake life responsibili
ties at a much earlier age than most
persons.
He came to Madison when a young
man and epent .several yearn there
employed by the American Express
Company and tho Western Union
Telegraph Company. Testimonies
from representatives of both these
companies, still preserved show the
efficiency of his service.
He came to Oregon in 1884 and to
Klamath County In tho Fall'of 1887
Shortly after this arrival, he located
on what Is now the Doak ranch on the
west side of the Upper Klamath Lake.
He. was elected Sheriff In 1890,
winning tbe Republican nomination
over 3. T. Henley and defeating H. 8.
Webb, the democratic aspirant. He
was re-elected to the same office In
1893. Those were the days when the
dollars were scarce in Klamath Coun
ty and pioneers tell how Justice Oow.
en, who was tax. collector spent, a
part of his Salary In assisting his
hard put friends to make their tax
payments.
During the last few years he has
held the position as. Justice of the'
Peace in this city and hss also spent
some trme in buying and snipping
out live, stock.
Mr. Gowen Is survived by his wife
and one son E. W. Gowen, Jr. now
in the service of his country in
France.
The funeral services will be held

The Woman Rellof Corps have a

which they would like to rench tho
Klamath boys In Franco rig well as
here In the States, for Xmas. Mothers
or wives of "our boys" may uipn ap

The announcement made yester
day that tbe requirements to pur
chase substitutes, with wheat flour
had been discontinued was nnexpect
ed, because In addition to our' own
people In Europe there' are millions
In the war-devastated regions that
will have to be fed, and mainly from
tho United States, '.The release of
shipping consequent on the end oi
hostilities has, no doubt, caused the!
modification as to substitutes, but. the
brake will necessarily be held on In a
general, way for several .months.
It is estimated that there will be
somo change In tbe sugar regulations
by December 1st, but whether up or
down doj4 not yet appear. The cards
Issued n October are 'good for No-

provide for three pounds per porson,
and are not returnable until callod In

again to compliment the people on

that has been required of them in tho
