The Mirrow-Gazette, of Kelbourn, Wis.,; in announcing the demise of an old citizeft of that town, George Knox, father of our fellow townsman L. F, Knox, pays the deceased a glowing tribute. The Mirrow-Gazette says: In a letter from Mrs. Knowlton to the Mirrow-Gazette the death of her father, George Knox, is an- nounced. He died at the home of -his daughter in Grangeville, Cal,, | Nov. 4. About two years ago Mr. and Mrs. Knox went from Kilbourn to California to make their home ton, who had been caring for her parents in their declining years at the old home in Kilbourn. But Mr. Knox, though living in that wonder- ful climate of perpetual flowers and love for his old home in Kilbourn, He was continually saying: “There’s no friends like old friends and no place like Kilbourn.” Mr. Knox was a native of New York, and was 91 years and 3 months old when he died. He had two sisters aged 95 and 93 years, the eldest having died a few months ago. farm a few rods north of Dell Prairie corners, towards Little Lake, where he settled with his family in® 1852. About 1870 they moved to Kilbourn. Of his family there re- mains the widow, two sons and one daughter—L. F. Knox, of Grand Rapids, Minn.; George W. Knox,’ of Aitkin, Minn., and Mrs. S. J. Knowlton, of Grangeville, Cal. Mr. Knox’s life in Kilbourn was a model ofe. He never aspired to public prominence, or had the least disposition to be conspicuous. Le was never for a day anything but an upright, industrious, 1deal man. He never had an enemy because he attended strictly to his own affairs and meddled with no other man’s. Genial, obliging, courteous and strictly honest he was always on hand when needed and never in anyone’s way, when not needed. Owing to en affliction which impair- ed his hearing during most of the time he lived here, he could not take the part in public affairs that otherwise would have come to him, and in which his life would have been more conspicuous. He was for almost a generation a deacon in the Baptist church in Kilbourn and one of the founders of the brick church that used to stand on Broad- way. In his daily intercourse with Kilbourn people he walked upright- ly before all men at all times, and was honored for a true Christian spirit—he lived up to his profession without affectation or ostentation. The family of sons and daughters grew up in Kilbourn, influential, useful and estimable factors in the community. ‘Ihe home was a cen- tre of refined, uplifting and helpful influence, one of the most. promi- nent of Kilbourn’e early days, Thanksgiving Proclamation.

Before that any old amendment could get through, and now no sort of an amendment can be made, beciuse it is impossible to get ; enough people to vote on the amend ments, either one way or another. During the late campaign most of the speakers talked about the amend- 'ments, said they were good things and ought to go through. Both parties favored them, and advocated | beir passage. Yet, nob more than half of the. people took interest enough in them to vote at all. “The constitution was cut to fit an infant state, and while many of its provisions are still good, the state has outgrown many others. ‘The need of more liberal tax laws is im- perative, yet it is im»ossible to pass them under the present constitution and impossible to change the consti- tution.”—DuJuth Evening Herald.
