THE NEXT SHERIFF, PRoBABLD.

In accordance with the wishes of a
number of prominent republicans, the
republican county central committee
was called together last Monday to
confer with regard to recommending a
suitable person for appointment to the
Office of Sheriff, made vacant by the
death of John L. Brown. The COM
mittee together with a large number of
interested citizens, met in the Office of
E. NJ. Eckley and after being called to
order decided, on motion, that any one
present whether q member of the COM
mittee or not, desiring to present the
name of any candidate, be permitted
to do so. In accordance with this &C.
ton the following names we're presen-
ted: L. Hobart, Cottage Grove; T. F.
Strickland, lola; Alex. Brown, lola;
D. d. Britton, Usage; and Phillip Moss,
Marmaton. The Committee, being
left to themselves took an informal bal
lot, which resulted as follows: Brit
ton, Ii; Hobart, 5; Moss, 4: Brown. 2;
Strickland, 2. A formal ballot by
townships was then taken resulting as
follows: Britt0n, SIS; Hobart, 2; Moss,
IL. On motion, Mr.. d. d. Brltton
was declared the unanimous choice of
the Committee, and the resolution rec
him for appointment was
signed by each individual member of
the Committee.

the Governor will act 10 accordance

FRIDAY. DECEMBER "a, 1885.
CHRISTMAS.

Tomorrow is Christmas; the day of
all the weary year when, if ever, the
work and worry and strife and sorrow
and bitterness and care of common days
are put aside and forgotten; the day
when one sees more of gladness and
less of grief than on any other; when
old friends that have been long out of
mind, are remembered; when parents
give good gifts unto their children;
when Peace and Good Will come down
from heaven for q season and dwell
among men. Every body is glad it
has come, but the children are the
gladest. For it is the anniversary of
the birth of child and is therefore
peculiarly and fittingly the children's
day. And it il this feature of it for
which the REGISTER would especially
plead. The children have been look
ing forward to it for months. These
past few days they have thought and
talked and dreamed of little else than
its gifts and good cheer. Do not let
them be disappointed. 1t is 80 easy to
satisfy them. 1t takes 80 little now to
make them happy. We know the
times are hard. But don't remind the
children of it on Christmas day. 1t is
no fault of theirs. And they are not
90 hard but you can devise some little
extra that will separate this day from
others and ward off the sickening dis
appointment that tugs 80 long at the
heart of q child. And finally but first
of all let there be no ill-natured words,
no harshness because the children are
q little noiser than usual. They have
. right to be noisy on Christmas.
Thus endeth our brief sermon adding
only thereto the very best wishes of
the REGISTER to all its readers, old and
young, for merry, merry Christmas.

with this recommendation or not, but
as we understand that all aspirants
except Mr.. Britton have withdrawn
their claims. it is entirely probable that
he will receive the appointment.
Should he be 50 fortunate, we are sure
that the action of the Governor will
meet with very general approval in all
parts of the county. At the meeting of
the Committee every township except
Geneva was represented, and while
other townships than Usage had can
didates whom they would have been
glad to have seen chosen. yet they
yielded willingly to the wishes Of the
majority, and the motion to unite in
recommending Mr.. Britton was hearth
ly concurred in by all present. Mr..
Britton is widely known throughout
the county and has a most enviable
reputation. He is a successful farmer,
a good business man, is clear headed,
decisive and firm, q man Of unim.
peachable private charachter, and Is
regarded by those who know him best
as in every way well qualified to fiji
the Office. We hope next week to be
able to announce his appointment.

z. PATTERSON.

After an illness of about three weeks,
Mr.. f. A. Patterson died at his resi-
dence in lola at o'clock p. m. on
Wednesday Dec. %, 1885.
At the time of going to press we are
unable to obtain any biographical data,
and can only say now that the deceas-
ed has lived in Allen county long
enough to have gathered about him
scores of friends who are stricken with
the deepest grief by his untimely death.
We have known him for four years,
and in all that time we have heard no
word concerning him except of admir-
alton and respect. He was q fine bust
ness man. He was scrupulously hon.
est and honorable. In all the relations
of life, business, social and political, he
was governed less perhaps by motives
of policy than any man we ever knew.
Concerning all these matters he had
but one question to ask, "What is
right?," and when that was answered
he would listen to no other arguments,
The thing that was right. in his sight.
was the thing that he did regardless of
the effect OF his action on himself. He
was true to his friends and stood by
them through Ill as through good re-
port. He was warm-hearted and gen.
erous. willing always to relieve dis
tress. And it was because he was all
these that his death has brought such
genuine regret to our entire commu-
nifty.
The deceased was member of lola
Lodge No. IS, A. o. L. w., and the
funeral services will be held under the
auspices of the Order at o'clock this
morning in the NJ. E. church, Rev.
LongdoD, of Colony, assisted by Rev.
Scott officiating. Immediately after
the services here the remains will be
taken to Geneva for intermant.

ANEW COAL VEIN.

SO started q shaft Sx6 feet. He carried
this down about twenty feet then re-
duced it to Axe and went on down. At
q depth of thirty feet from the surface
he struck q vein of soft coal six inches
thick. Four feet deeper he passed
through a vein of fine, hard coal 10
inches thick. This was reached the
first of the week, and Mr.. Marion is
confident that he has bed of coal that
will richly repay working and be-
gan at once enlargiug the shaft to its
original dimensions. 1t IL the inten-
ton to sink q prospect hole Is or 20

what Might Haye Reen.

Chicago, Aug. 2a-Police officials are
confident that that the convicted anarchists
had some deeply laid plot on hand in
connection with their friends outside at
the time the verdict was rendered. The
fact that Parsons appeared in court with
red ani white handkerchiefs seems to
confirm suspicious. 1t is asserted that
had the conditions been favorable he
would have used these handkerchiefs
for signals. The actions of Mrs. Parsons
were also triHe peculiar, as she oontin-
ually went to the window of tie court
room and surveyed the crowd, until for
hidden to do so by the police
Had not the provisions of the police
department. been adequate serious
trouble might have occurred. II is said
by officers at the Hinman street station
that Frank Zeeman, who murdered his
wife and then shot himself, Saturday
afternoon, was an avowed anarchist,
and that because of his violent utteran.
ces Officer West and Donegan were sent
to gain what information they could
against the man Tor the purpose of
arrestipg him. 1t Is said the officers
met Zeeman Friday afternoon, and we're
asked by him to take a glass of beer.
The invitation, it is said, was accepted
The officers drank the beer, and shortly
afterwards were taken deathly SICK The
doctor pronounced the symptoms those
of poisoning. When stomach pump
was used it is SAID the con-
tents of the stomach showed that
poison had been administered,
and as both officers were in the same
condition it is thought Zeeman dropped

at the bar. The officers are said to be
