Proceeding Of Preble County Lodge,
70. G. r

According to previous notice, Pre-
BILE County Lodgr, L. o. G. T. met in
Temple Hall, at Eaton, Feb. IL, 1872.
The meeting was opened by singing
and reading of Scriptures.
. On motion the next meeting was
appointed at Winchester, on the Sd
Saturday of March, 1872.
The Executive Committee reported
progress.
The Lecture committee reported
two meetings held since last report.
One at Ell Dorado and at School
House No. 8, Washington township.
According to programme the fol-
lowing resolution wa presented for
consideration:
Resolved, That the cause of Tenn
perance would advance more rapidly
if its friends would direct their efforts
toward State and National, rather
than local prohibition.
The resolution gave rise to a spirit
ed discussion, participated in by
Messrs. Risinger, Larsh, Matlock.
Blackboard, Miss Cakes. and others
All agreed that we should not relax
our efforts in local work, and all like
wise strongly favored the idea of State
and National prohibition. The prin'
cipal difference of opinion seemed tc
be whether both should be worked
for together, or whether the latter
should be the result and outgrowtl
of the former.
1t being evident that the time allot
ted was not sufficient for a full con
sideration of the question, on motion
the resolution was laid upon the ia
BILE, and made the special order for tn,
next meeting to be held at Winches
ter. The public are cordially invited
to attend and participate in the dis
cussion
On motion the Lodge adjourned.

County Treasurer.

What is the matter with the Trea-
surer's office? Where, o, where, is
the Treasurer the Republicans elected
10 fill that position? Who runs it ?
Will the Commissioners let the tax
payers know about this matter? If
the Republican party can't elect men
who will s'stick,Y or are Competent to
discharge the duties of the County
Offices, we would advise it to turn. the
business over to the Democrats. From
appearances our County affairs are in
q muddle. Whose fault is it?

Malfaasance.

, The Town Council have unearthed
some matters against the Corporation
Clerk which looks very ugly for a
strictly honest and conscientious man.
He has resigned hroughthe invitation
of that body, and MI. WM. ORTT was
appointed to fill his place until the
Spring election. It is not very pleas
AM for us to make publication of such
charges against a public servant, but
itisa duty we cannot avoid. Mr..
Brown says verything can be salts
factory explained, which we will be
glad to hear of being done. .
