DEATHS.
To Make Times Easier.

The surplus wheat crop of this
county will be worth at least million
dollars. 1t is now bringing a good
price, and is being rapidly disposed of.
There is bare possibility that the
present price is as high as it will get
perhaps it may be lower. In view of
the possibilities, it would he wisdom to
sell while the price is good. Then let
every farmer who owes anything on
his farm pay off his debt and stop the
interest. This will put a large amount
of money circulating through other
channels, and other parties will like
wise be able to pay off debts and stop
the interest they are now paying.
This, again, will supply other chan
nels, and relieve others, give encour-
agement to labor and revive business
generally. Remember that when A
pays B, he is enabled to pay c, and SO
on thr ough the whole minutia of bus
mess relation. Often a very little
money started in the right direction
will pay a large amount of debt, and
relieve a great amount of distress.
There is plenty of money whenever
you have anything to sell that ths
market needs. 1t now needs wheat
You have it to spare. Sell it for mon
ey, and start the money on its rounds

Girl Shot and Badly Wounded.

On Sunday night last, between eight
and nine o'clock, a disturbance oe
CURED at the house of Mrs. Dubbs, on
Main street, North Findlay, during
which a young girl named Anna Dubbs
aged thirteen, was shot through the
left arm and side. 1t appears that
James Chain had called at the house
several times during the day, to see a
daughter of Mrs. Dubbs', but had each
time been refused. The evidence goe:
to show that he made threats of what
he would do if he was not permitted to
see her, which so alarmed Mrs. d. fol
her safety that she sent over for Mar.
shall Wilson, but not finding him, sent
for Constable Markle. Markle went
over and remained till after the shoot.

claim, in hopes if Chain came again.
finding the house qhet. he would 60
away.
Shortly after eight o'clock he made
his appearance, and knocked on the
different doors, demanding admittance
and making threats of what he would
do if he was not permitted to enter.-
Efie Dubbs at last opened an upstair
window, spoke with him. ana agreed
to go down, which she did. and going
into the front room spoke to him but
did not open the door. He demanded
admittance. and on being refused tried
to force the door open. All this time
the constable was in the house, aud, 1t
appears, had q revolver In his hand
ready to shoot. All at once. the door
was swung open, a pistol shot or shots

West Independence Letter.

WEST INDEPENDENCE, July %, n.
ED JEFF: hand you some items
for your highly priced paper.
Our village continues to hold its own
and is making as much improvement
as any other similarly situated. The
Debating Club has concluded to sus-
pend meetings till the first Friday in
September, when its meetings will be
held as before.
Our Brass Band is making progress.
MIR. Markell, of Findlay, is giving them
instructions and will continue to do so
for some time. The boys expect to be
uniformed this fall They have al
ready a fair sum raised by subscription,
and expect to swell it to proper pro-
portions this fall. Our people should
be liberal with the boys.
This is a busy time with farmers,
and the threshing machine is going its
busy rounds.
LAHGE NlELD OF WHEAT.
John A. Miller's steam thresher was
at work on the farm of Andrew Mar
tin, farmed by Lewis Ruch, with the
following result, from a two acre field,
by land survey, ninety bushels we're
threshed. Six dozen from a six acre
field yielded ten bushels. The six
acres contained 300 shocks, which all
being good would make the average
forty-tive bushels 10 tlr. mcrr WI
some one please and beat that. Ills
statement will lie verified by Messrs.
Martin, Ruch, and the threshers. Mr..
Martins farnl is a richly productive
one.
l have not yet seen in the jeff. any
call for County Convention of the
Republicans, to appoint delegates to
the State Convention, and it is high
time that matter was attended to.
INCREASE.
lOur correspondent has evidently
overlooked the notice of the Commit
tee, published twice before, and also
this week, to the effect that any Re-
publican from the county can go as a
delegate and all present will have an
equal voice in deciding how the vote
of the county shall be cast.-ED.

what the Bilious Require.

Since torpidity OF the liver is the chief
cause of its disorder, 1t is evident that what
the bilious require is an Alternative st:mulant
which will arouse it to activity, an effect
that is followed by the disappearance of the
various symptoms indicative of its derange-
ment. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters invaria-
bly, achieve the primary result mentioned,
besides removing the constipation, ,fiatulenee
heart burn, yeliowness of the skin and
whiteness of the eyes, pain in the right side
and under the right shoulder, nausea, verti-
90 and sick headache, TO which bilious in
valids are peculiarly subject. AS remedy
for chronic indigestion, mental dependency
and nervousness the Bitters are equally
efficaciouS, and as {. renovant oflOst vigor, a
means of arresting premature decay, and a
source of relief from the infirmities to which
the gentler sex is peculiarly subject, they
may be thoroughly ielied upon.

for court house purposes, but for no
other purposes whatever. There IS no
antagonism between the village and the
county upon this subject The Square
was first fenced and ornamented with
trees at the expense Of the Village.
The presen. fence around, and the
we'll and sidewalk in front of said prem
ises we're paid for by the county. The
county has been liberal and generous to
our village in all its dealings, and no
complaint in this matter has been made,
and none can be made with any show
of reason. The people of our village are
Justly proud of our county-one of the
best in the State-and feel well assured
that the people of the entire county Ell
tertain similar feeling toward our vii
lage. Between those living within, and
those living without the village, there
should be and can be no antagonism.
The county claims nothing more than
the use of the premises for court house
purposes. For every other purpose the
premises belong to the village and are in,
every sense subject to Its municipal con-
troll. The county has an easement in
the premises and nothing more. The
article in the COu, Ter says: "lf the coun
ty has no other title the fact of its hav-
ing had forty years peaceable possession
is pretty good title" A good title to
the easement, we admit, but nothing
more.
The Courier further says: The vii
lage has heretofore always recognized it
as county property" etc. This is a seri-
GUS mistake. The village has recognized
in the county an easement in the premi-
ses, but nothing more.
The resolutions to which exception is
taken in the Courier, although not as
carefully worded as it should have been,
simply affirms the authority of the vii
lage over the premises in question for
general purposes. The country heving
no control over the premisis, except for
the purpose above named, it follows that
it can confer no other authority upon
the Sheriff or any other of its agents.
The contract of the Sheriff to rent, lease,
or in any way incumber the premises,
except for court house purposes, is equal
ly void, as if made by the Marshal or any
constable. For all municipal, sanitary or
police purpose, the Public Square is as
much part of the village as any other
foot of territory in it. The county, by
its agents, or otherwise, has no right to
erect bulletin board on the Public Square
in Findlay, for the reason that said
Square belongs to the village of Findlay,
subject only to the easement of the
county court house purposes. The vii
lage NAV prohibit all managerie and cir
Gus shows withinits limits, and it would
be very strange if it could not regulate
and control the display Of show bills on
its own ground.
The object of the resolution of the
Council was to notify the Sheriff, and all
whom it might concern, that the Coun-
ell claimed the right to regulate and con-
troll ali matters clearly and unquestion-
ably within the purview of its municipal
powers.
Respectfully submitted,
ANTHONY BROWN. Committee.

The City VS.. The County.

Recently the Council passed a reso.
luton directing the Mayor to notify
the County Sheriff that the public
square belonged to the city, and he had
no right to let it out for the erection oi
bulletin boards, &c. The Courier hav
ing maintained to the contrary, and
the question having been raised, Coun
Gil appointed a special committee to
enquire into the matter. At the meet.
ing on Friday night of last week, Mr..
Anthony Brown, chairman, submitted
the following report:
To the Mayor and Council Of the Valag,
Of Findldy:
In the Courier of the 5th inst, is an
editorial under the caption of 'Consum
mate Impudence,' In which the Mayor,
and by Implication the Council of said
village, are arraigned for a resolution
passed by the Council, asserting the
right of the village to control, for gen
eral purposes, the public square upon
which the Court House is erected. Your
committee, appointed for the purpose
of investigating this matter, and refer.
ring the result of their investigation to
the Council. report as follows:
The proprietors of said village dona.
ted all the streets and alleys, together
with the Public Square, to thu Village
of Findlay. Lot Mol. is that onwhich
Squire Carlin now resides. No. is
now owned by Frank Karst. No. 9 is
south of the Court House and now oc-
eupied by Mr.. Snyder. The lots of The
public square are not numbered. The
streets and alleys and also the public
square, became the property of the
village. The proprietors, believing that
FindIay would become county seat,
donated for county purposes about for
ty lots by them designated, for the pur
poses of Court House, Jail, etc. BY
public consent, and nothing more, the
public square was selected as the ioca-
ton for a Court House. which was
erected in 1889 and 1840. Seventeen
years after the erection of the Court
House, the village caused the square
to be cleaned of, graded, planted in
trees and fenced, at an expense of i've
or siI hundred dollaIs. The ocoups-
ticn of lots by q Court House and Jail
is not inconsistent with the use of the
property, being in the town. See 9th
Ohio Reports, page 80;
No doubt exists a. to the right of the
county to use and occupy said premises

witnesses claimed two) were sflnulta-
neously heard, and the little girl. who
had followed her sister into the room,
received a ball in her left forearm,
which passed through the arm into the
side striking a rib which it followed
and lodged in the right side, where it
was extracted by DR.. Barnhill- Whose
pistol the ball came from is matter of
question. Chain, who was arrested
near the house soon after the shooting,
denied having had a pistol, and no
weapon of any kind was found upon
him, but there was time enough be-
tween the shooting and the arrest for
him to have got rid of everything, and
Effie Dubbs swore that he thrust a pis-
tol into her face when he entered the
house after the shooting. As soon as
the shooting was done, the constable
hurried to summon a physician, and
meeting a Mr. Horn on the street gave
his revolver to him as he passed, and
told him of the shooting. One cham
Der of the revolver was empty. There
are, however, SO many conflicting sto-
ries as to the firing and the statements
of parties Immediately after, that we
hazard nothing in saying that it would
require close legal investigation to de-
termine whose pistol did the injury,
and whether the wounding was the re-
suit of accident or design. Chain was
arraigned on a chaLge of disorderly
conduct, on Tuesday morning, but de-
manding jury trial the case was con-
tinued till Wednesday at 9 o'clock.
The result was a verdict of guilty, and
a sentence of $40 fine and costs, i'm
prisonment for sixty hours, and in case
of non payment of fine and costs, work
on the streets, under charge of the
Marshal, till the same is paid. The
wounded girl is reported recovering.
