nmong the members of the State Board c
Transportation :
"When Mr. Porter asserts that ho ha

false. Ho has neither discussed the matte

notice of a meeting for that purpose. H

or whatever ho was , has ever found n
wanting an opinion when the Interest of tl
people of this state was at stake ; ready i
express It and the moral courage to bac
It up.

"I have given a great deal of time to th

The State Brand and Marks commlsslc
which has been In session at tbo sccreta
of state's office in the capital building sin
January 2 , adjourned today nnd the procec
ftcro divided among the four members , ca
receiving $501 for a little les than a montl
work. The beneficiaries are Secretary
State Porter , J. H. Qulgley of Valentine ,
J. Blewett of Harrison and S. P. Delate
of Lewellen. Of the 1,670 applicants fll
with the commission , 1,425 were allowi
215 rejected and thirty were passed over u
til the next meeting , which will ho be
.March. 19.
There was some doubt In the minds
ecvcral of the commissioners as to whctl
tbo secretary of elate had a right to a
portion of the proceeds. In South Dako
where a similar law was passed by the IE
legislature , the matter was taken Into t
courts and the'secretary of state secured
decision that made ft lawful for him to i
cept his share of tlio fees on the grou
that they were ; not state money. Secrcta
of State Porter concluded that this was t
proper construction of the law and drew t
$601 without hesitation.
The Brand and Marks commission law pi

This sum coming Into the treasury at ihl

to replenish the fund. V..illo the sale o

It has been done elsewhere and Is Mrlctly i

Is considered ample , as lots In that sectlo

which stated that President Young of tt

made.
Mr. Qulnn said that such a thing would I

tend to ask favors of the National league.
League lleiKly < o Rc ln War.
The Washington dispatch was als
brought to tbe attention of Colonel John
Rogers of the Philadelphia National Least
club and from the colonel's remarks It lool
as If a war between the National league ar
the new- association is about to begin. Tt
Philadelphia magnate said :
"Oh , that matter was talked over at Clevi
land , where the circuit committee met la
week. It Is merely a war measure. I hai
all along been In favor of putting teams \
Chicago , Philadelphia nnd one or two othi
cities to play .in the absence of tbe Nation
Vcague teams- This is about all there is
it. "
The colonel's remarks are taken to mea
that the National league Is going to flgl
the now American association from tl
start. Frank C. Rltter of this city said 1
did not doubt that the National league wou
antagonize the American association.
In eplte of President Qulnn'e denial thi
any opposition association had asked fi
National league protection , there is rau <
speculation as to who the people are th
, asked President Young for membership in
j der the national agreement. It Is believe
that the National league's plan was to plai
a team under the National league in t
cities in which the new American assocli
tlon attempts to place a club , thus havlt
three teams In a number of cities. It
also believed that the new clubs will pi :
on the National league grounds when tl

The American association representatlv
now In the city are thoroughly alive to t !

2:22 : a. m. , aged 73 years , 1 month and 8 dayi
Thus has this pillar of the church trans
fnrred his membership from the church mill
tant to the church triumphant.
We who survive him have In the manne
of his departure and in his conBciousnes
of the surrounding presence of white-robe
ministering angels a practical lllustratlo
and application of the assurance that "Yez
though I walk through the valley of th
shadow of death I will fear no evil. " Doubt
less the rod- and the staff -which comforte
and sustained him In this his last Journe
and spread on bis features his blissful ami ]
wns the assurance "I have fought a goo
flght ; I have finished my course : I hav
kept the fajth. Hencr.forth there is laid u
for mo a crown of righteousness. "

: not always heeded , but might well have bee
' as was subsequently proven. For thlr
years a deacon In the church of his a0111 :

alone by the writer. In fact none kne
him but to love him. By biro , we men
his Inherent qualities which served to ai
sure us that Clod made man after His ovi
image. Until death calls us , wo shall tn
meet him , but we shall miss him. Ol
recollection of him shall not fade , and I
joy Is and shall be that wo knew his II
to be pure , hlfl heart to bo tender and kin
his mind not forcefully Intolerant , but coi
stderate and sympathetic. May wo emuln
his virtue * , succeed as he succeeded , ar
