OUR village and township elections for
the ensuing year will be held next Mon.
day. The officers TO be elected are, for
the township, three trustees, clerk, treas
urer, assessor and two constables; for the
village, three councilmen, marshall and
cemetery trustee, and two members of the
school board. Arrangements are being
made to build the town hall this season,
and il is therefore important that the
trustees be elected with reference 10 the
responsibilities they will assume. Our
corporation affairs have been administered
so satisfactorily that 1t is earnestly hoped
that the election may be equal TO vote Of
confidence and purpose TO give all
needed moral support. Arrest and pun.
ishment have followed close upon the
commission of disorder and crime; and
drunkenness and rowdyism have been at
a minimum. Several new and useful reg.
ulations have been enacted and changes
have been effected in our municipal
code adding much to its completeness and
efficiency. We have just reason to be
proud of the very efficient administration
our council and other corporation officers
have gwen us.
We must Of necessity bave two or more
tickets, but We hope that each faction or
party may honestly study to give us intel
ligent, upright, conscientious men for
candidates, and that no personal or indi.
vidual interests may be allowed TO govern
our selection. May our tickets be made
up after careful and general consultation
among our most judicious men, and may
we have one municipal election without
personalities, without detraction, and
without any lying, either for or against
the different candidates; and so may we
inaugurate political millennium in local
politics.

IT is generally known, though we think
no public mention has been made Of the
system Of steam heating put into the Union
School building at the beginning OF the

which had been in use since the building
was erected After careful examination
by the committee of the best systems and
apparatus, il was decided to put in steam.
heating, and the contract was let TO Shaw,
Kendall & Co., of Toledo for little less
than $4,000. The result has been more
satisfactory than was anticipated. The
heating has been nearly perfect, and the
saving in fuel over last year not less than
$500, or one halt less than the expense Of
heating by hot air furnaces. The rooms
have been kept at a uniform temperature
through the whole winter, all the while
comfortable, which was not possible by
the old method Of heating. Several times
in the coolest weather the schools were
dismissed, and often the temperature
of the rooms was below a comfortable
and healthy condition. This season
there has been no complaint, and we
may congratulate ourselves on having
as cheap aud perfect system of heating
as any school building in this section of

w. d. HoYT who lives at the corner of
Sibley and Cleave Streets, Cleveland,
Sunday evening detected a man in his
yard gazing into one of the side windows.
Ashis sick wife had been seriously shocked
within a week and other women and chill
dren in the neighborhood, repeatedly
frightened by mans face peering into
their windows, Mr.. Hoyt took a revolver
and stationed himself where the man
would have to pass him to escape. The
latter reached for his hip pocket and ran
toward Mr. Hoyt paying no attention 10
the order TO halt and throw up his hands
and when within eight or ten feet of Mr.
Hoyt, the latter, as he believed, shot in
self.defense, killing the man instantly
He proved TO be mulatto, painter by
trade, and not known to have any vicious
habits. 1t is supposed he might have had
a mania for peering in at windows, but the
natural inference would be that such O
prowler was there with criminal intent
and almost any man would feel like de
tending his premises from such an intrud
er, and would have shot under the circum
stances. Mr.. Hoyt summoned a physician
and reported himself for arrest. Bail was
given, Mr.. A. Hutchins, Of the Standard
Oil Company, for which Mr.. Hoyt is stem
ographer, signing the bond for $1,000.
