Montgomery, nominated to the Supreme Bench of Indiana at the recent Republican state convention, was born on a farm near Seymour, Ind., April 27, 1859. He completed the Course of study then provided in the common schools, and at the ago of seventeen entered Hanover College, from which institution he was graduated with the second classical honor in 1881. During his college course he spent a part of one year, the winter of 1878-9, in teaching a public school in Hancock county, and later served as tutor in the college, was editor and business manager of the college paper, and president of the Inter-State Oratorical Association. He is now and has been for ten years a member of OSCAR H. MONTGOMERY. the board of trustees of his alma mater. After graduation he began tn .-tudy of law in the office of Hon. Albert Charles of Seymour, where he remained, spending the winters in 'teaching, until April 22. 1884, when he was Admitted to the bar of Jackson county. Immediately thereafter he formed a partnership with his cousin, L. H. Reynolds of Greenfield, and entered upon the practice of law in Hancock county. This partnership continued until February 1, 1885, when he returned to Seymour and opened an office alone, where he has ever since practiced without a partner. From the time of his return to Seymour he has been fortunate in having a large and constantly increasing business, extending over much of southern" Indiana and embracing litigation of every character. He has never held an elective office, but was for ten years the city attorney of Seymour, and has devoted himself with great diligence to his chosen profession. At the same time he has taken a reasonably active interest in politics and received such recognition of an honorary character as his party locally had power to confer. He has served as chairman of the county committee, and of the Fourth congressional district, and as a delegate to the Republican national convention in 1896. He is vice president of the Indiana State Bar association, a member of the American Bar association, and a member of the commission on uniformity of laws among the states, having been appointed by the late Governor Mount about six years ago.

EULOCY OF HANNA Indiana's Distinguished Senators Pay Eloquent Tribute. DEAD LEADER OF REPUBLICANISM Senator Beveridge Said cf Him That He Was a Doer of Real Things Whose Work Will Long Linger After Him Senator Fairbanks Pays the Tribute of Affectionate Personal Friendship. Two of the strongest speeches made during the memorial exercises recently held in the senate in honor of the late Senator Hanna were those delivered by Senators Fairbanks and Beveridge, of this state. Of Senator Beveridge's effort on this occasion a Washington correspondent says: "Senator Beveridge's eulogy on Senator Hanna was the finest oration of the kind heard in the senate chamber for many years. Senator Teller complimented Senator Beveridge in person, and said that during twenty-seven years' observation in the senate he had never known anything so well delivered. The junior Indiana Senator spoke without manuscript, in a well modulated voice, and in a way that thoroughly impressed and thrilled his auditors. He was the recipient of many congratulations from correspondents and men in public life." Senator Beveridge said: "Mr. President, since to all earthly work an end must come, our words of farewell to a fellow-workman should not alone be those of grief that man's common lot has come to him; but of pride and joy that his task has been done worthily. Powerful men so weave themselves Into their hour that, for the moment, it all but seems the world will stop when they depart. Yet, it does not stop or even pause. Undisturbed Time etill wings his endless and unwearied flight; and the progress of the race goes on and up toward the light realizing at every step, more and more of the true, the beautiful and the good. "So it is not important that any of us should long remain; the Master Builder lacks not craftsmen to take our place. But it is important to the uttermost that while we are here, we should do our duty to the full perfection of our powers, fearlessly and faithfully, with clean hands, and hearts ever full of kindness, forbearance and charity. "These are the outline thoughts that the absence of out friend compels. With his whole strength he did his work from boyhood to the place of rest. ' He was no miser of his life he poured it into discharge of duty", keeping with nature no account of heart beats. A Doer of Real Things. "The things he did were real things. He was the very spirit of the practical. Yet the practical did not kill or even Impair the human in him. He never lost the gift of lovableness. His sense of human touch and fellowship was not dulled, but made more delicate by time and the world. The years made him wiser, but they made him mellower, too. "And so he won "the people's affection as well as their applause. And affection is worth more than applause. There is no greater glory than this to make a cation your friend. Senator Hanna did ihat. For, when the angel of peace, which men call Death, took our brother to his well-earned rest, the people knew that a friend had left them. And the peopie were sad that he had gone away. "This human quality in him made all he did a living thing, all he said a living word. He was the, man of affairs in statesmanship; yet his personality gave to propositions of mere national business something of the warmth and vitality of principles. He was the personification of our commercial age the age of building, planting, reaping; of ships on ocean and on land steel highways and the rolling wheels of trade; of that movement of the times which knits together with something more thin Verbal ties all the Children of. nep. weäves tan&blecivi-

Hzation around the globe and will. In time, make of all peoples neighbors, brothers, friends. "Thus he was, unwittingly, no doubt, one of the agents of God's great purpose of the unification of the race. We are all such agents, small or great. If this is not so if we are not, ignorantly perhaps and blindly but still surely, spinning our lives into the Master's design, whose pattern He alone can comprehend if we and all things are not working together for good if life is but a breath exhaled and then forever lost, our work means less and is worth less than that of coral insects, which, from the depths, build ever toward the light until islands stand above the waves, permanent monuments of an intelligent architecture. What His Conservatism Meant "Work with real things real earth, real ocean, real mountains, real men made him conservative. And his conservatism was real. Much that is accepted as conservatism is spurious, mere make-believe. Conservatism does not mean doubt or indecision. It does not mean wise looks, masking" vacuity nor pompous phrase, as meaningless as it is solemn. Conservatism means clear common sense, which equally rejects the fanaticism of precedent and the fanaticism of change. It would not have midnight last just because k exists; and yet it knows that dawn comes net In a flash, but gradually comes with a grand and beautiful moderation. So the conservative is the real statesman. He brings things to pass in a way that lasts and does good. Senator Hanna was a conservative "Workiicg with real things among real men also kept fresh his faith and hope. No sailor of the seas, no delver in the earth, no builder of rooftrees can be a pessimist. He who plants dcubts not our common mother's generosity, or fails to see In the brown furrow the certainty of coming harvests. He who sinks a well and witnesses tne waters rise understands that the eternal fountains will never cease to flow. Only the man whose hands never touch the realities of life despairs of human progress or doubts the providence of God. The fable of Anteus is literal truth for body, mind and soul. And so Senator Hanna, dealing with living men and the actualities of existence, had all the virile hope of youth, all the unquestioning: faith of prophecy. These are the qualities of the effective leadership of men. His Influence Lives. "He Is gone from us gone before us. Strength and frailty, kindness and wrath, wisdom and folly, laughter and frown, all the elements of life and his living of it have ceased their visible play and action. 'Where,' said despairing Villon, 'where are the snows of yesteryear?' Vanished, he would have us believe. Yes, but vanished only in form. 'The snows of yesteryear' are in the stream, in cloud and rain, in sap of tree and bloom of flower, in heart and brain of talent and of beauty. Nothing is lost even here on our ancient and kindly earth. So the energies of our friend, and those of all men, have touched Into activity forces that, influencing still others, will move on forever. "As to the other life, we know not fully what it is; but that it is, we know. Knowing this, we who are left behind go on about our daily tasks, assured that in another and truer existence our friend is now established, weakness cast aside as a cloak when winter has passed, vision clear as when at dawn we wake from dreams, heart happy as when, the victory won, we cease from effort and from care. For him the night is done, and it is ritten that 'joy cometh in the morning " - t Notice. Claims against the estate of D. K Harris deceased will be paid by me if presented.
