A Letter from the West.
The following letter from Rev. J. P.
Hughes, who is visiting his brother in South
Dakota, will be of interest to our readers, as
every eastern traveler to the great north-
west sees that country from a slightly differ-
ent standpoint.
DEAR WATCHMAN :—
A few lines from one of your citizens from
this centre might be of some interest to your
readers. I left Chicago Aug. 23rd at 8 p. m.
reaching Castlewood, South Dakota, Aug 24,
at 9:30p. m. The C. & N. M. is a smoothly
running train with excellent service. For 24
hours, gait 30 miles, we were passing
through the wide and extended plains of
Minnesota and South Dakota, diversified
with growing corn acres and tens of thou-
sands of shocks of wheat and stacks of hay,
the returns of the laborer’s toil. Now and
then the eyes were relieved by the dark-loam
soil of the furrowed fields, the large herds
of cattle grazing by beautiful lakes.
The panorama was like a vast tent with
the heaven for a roof, the ground for a lake
and the horizon, as far as the vision reached,
for its limitations everywhere dotted with
the hives of industry. Here you can see the
real sunrise and sunset, the day seems long-
er thar in the mountains. The morning
dawn and the evening twilight are truly in-
spiring. The sir is clear and cool. The
buildings are low, mostly two stories high,
but commodious,conveniently arranged and
cosy. The people are strictly intelligent,
courteous and energetic. Religion has a
strong hold upon their hearts and con-
sciences. Their weekly prayer meetings are
conducted like the christian endeavor of the
East. The leader announces the subject for
thought, makes his remark, and then the
meeting iz open to men and women, old and
young, for hymn, prayer or remark. A
social christ-like spirit pervades the wor-
shipers. The crops will not yield a fair aver-
age. Wheat, rated by acreage, will lose
about 30 per cent; rated by weight will lose
10 per cent. Both rust and hail have injur-
ed the returns. The corn crop is also much
below the average. The farmers, however,
are cheerful and hopeful under all the cir.
cumstances.
Tribute of Respect.
CENTRE HALL, Pa., August 26th, 1904.
Worthy Master :
Death has invaded our ranks and taken
from us one of our dearest and most valued
members, Col. James F. Weaver, a charter
member of the Centre county Pomona
grange, was called home on the morning of
the 13th of August. Just as the day was
ushered in iu all its glory, Col. Weaver's
spirit took flight in response to his Master
for the resurrection morning, whither he
stands beckoning us to come and join in the
song of triumph of the redeemed, who have
fought the fight and kept the faith.
At the formation of the Centre county
Pomona grange in September, 1875, he was
elected secretary and served until 1881, when
he was elected Master and served until 1888,
after which he was elected lecturer and
served until January, 1904.
He rendered eminent service on many of
the most important committees of the State
and county granges, and was instrumental
in inaugurating many of the most important
movements of the order. He was a versatile
writer and speaker and had complete com-
mand of the English language, using the
words that would most forcibly express his
opinions.
His services were most valuable in the
lecture field, being frequently called upon to
represent the State Grange at important pub-
lic gatherings. While his arguments were
forcible and incisive, in his attacks upon
wrong, he abhored personal reflections in
his controversies. ;
Col. Weaver, however, endeared himself
most by his kindhearted treatment and sym-
pathy for his fellowman, holding that pre-
cepts of fraternity in our order should over-
shadow all its’ other advantages. His dear-
est mission in the order was to use his influ-
ence and his means to make the conditions of
the farmer better, more influential and more
honorable.
The influence of his labors are indelibly
impressed upon the community, as well as
upon the institution of the grange. But
notwithstanding the most important serv-
ices that man can render, God has appoint-
ed of man once to die and it is said in Holy
Writ that the day of death is better than the
day of one’s birth.
Patrons, again we are called to separate
from a worthy brother, but let us remember
there is healing in the bitter cup. God takes
away from us those we love as hostages of
our faith; and to those who look forward to
a reunion in another world, where there
will be no separation, the evening of life be-
comes more delightful than the morning,
and the sunset offers brighter and lovelier
visions than those which we build up in the
morning clouds, and which disappear before
the strength of day; but we must be made
perfect through suffering, the struggle
through night will bring the calmness of the
morning. Through them we are brought in-
to more tender relationship to all other
forms of being, obtain a deeper insight into
the mystery of eternal life, and feel more
distinctly the breathings of the Infinite.
Our Father saw that disappointment and
separation tvere necessary and He has made
them holy and everlasting.
The sorrow which God appoints is puri-
fying and enobling and contains within it a
serious joy.
Heaven and God are best discerned
through tears. The Prager of faith calls
down the power of endurance, and while to
the relugfant their cross is too heavy to be
born, it grows light in the heart of willing
trust. :
THEREFORE, Be it resolved, Thit we
hereby extend to sister Weaver and family
our sincere and heartfelt sympathy in their
great bereavement, with prayer to God for
the divine consolation and protection, and
we pledge to them our ready and willing as-
sistance.
Resolved, That this, our memorial to the
memory of our deceased brother, Col. James
F. Weaver, be recorded on a special page,
set apart in the journal of the County Grange
and an engrossed copy be sent to the family.
Respectfully submitted,
