The Best Mayor.

Newport has phenomenal mayor,
whose characteristics are set down by q
correspondent as follows:
This Mayor Powell is probably unique
among the mayors of American cities.
An aristocrat by birth and life. a man
of wealth and almost secluded habits,
he is held in equal esteem by swells and
common people. When he was in
duced to run for mayor only twenty-five
men out of LOO voters could be found
to vote against him, and these votes
were all scattering. The local politi-
clans knew that his choice was their
temporary death, but not one ventured
to stand for the office. His conduct
since he was elected has been without
example. If he wants thing done
and there is no appropriation handy to
take care of it, he draws his own check
bursed. There was an old man on the
police whose efficiency was gone.
Mayor Powell could not conscicntiously
reappoint him. and so he dropped him
from the force with generous gift
from his own pocket TO compensate him
for the loss of his position. There was
no money with which tn bring the burg
lar Ingle back from the west, and
Mayor Powell drew his own check for
the entire amount needed. He is spend
ing II considerable share of his income,
by all accounts. on the city of Newport.
1t is easy To sre how invaluable such II
mayor must bc to city where there is
not only Il slrong objection to spending
the public money. but also mastery
pred sposition against energetic action
of any sort. Probably if John Hare
Powell were willing to bc mayor of New
port for the remainder of his life. the
people would he glad lo have him.
But the chances are that he will not &C
cept another term.
The Portland OrcgOaian relates a
story of a porily and jolly government
official who went out of his Office one
day last week without his cane. '.Ohr'
said he, IL must go back That is bad
luck" So To avert the threatened evil
he marched back into the Office. sat
down, took half dollar from his
pocket, laid il upon his desk. turned it
over, and then replaced it in his pocket.
He then took his cane and marched
out with cheerful heart OF course,
he did not believe i'm this hocus-pOcus
business. but then he had heard the
omen all his life. and it could do no
harm to go through the rigmarOle. so
he went through it.

Pay Your Small Debts.

The Cincinnati Enquirer makes the
following sensible remarks on the hard
times question. "Now, it is short but
absolutely unanswerable effort at busi-

questionably able to pay their debts
would do so, and that without delay,
there would be put into circulation in
the direct channels of trade such vol
ume of the circulating medium as
would almost magically act to relax and
relieve the pressure of the hard times.
We may look till our eyes are strained
toward the great many depositors in
banks and sub-treasuries as the source
of the needed relief, but the relief will
only come when the individual small

DECLARED swINDLERs.
Important Verdict Against Bohemian
Oats Agents I'm Seneca County.

TuFrS, o., Feb. 19.-The Bohemian oats
swindle got black eye in Common Pleas
Court here Wednesday. As this county is the
biith-pli- i-e of the swindle, the decision was
looked upon with great interest, and the
Courtroom was crowded with members Of
the gang, many of whom are beginning to
feel i'll at ease.
The case was as follows:
John Heydinger first bought oats of the
association, and received bond that they
would sell double the amount for him. The
following year the agent of the association
fulfilled the boud, and Soda certain number
of bushels for Heydinger, receiving from
him cash commission of 81 80 per bushel.
Ten bushels of these oats were sold to w. z.
Marquis, of Venice township, this county, he
giving his note for 800 in favor of Heyding-
er, and receiving the usual bond from the
association. The bond was not fulfilled, and
Marquis refused to pay the note. Heydinger
who still held the note, brought suit for the
same with interest. -........
Heydlueer was represented by Lester SUIT
tOuy VI ALtiOu3 obo 3hAoiHuao W os Os AsA>ASAA
baugh, of this city, and L. @. Feighner, of
Bucyrus, who made an able fight against the
swindle. Judge Dodge, in charging the jury
said that "if they found that Heydinger or
his agent knew, at the time of the sale, that
there was any swindle in the matter, or would
be at any future time, or had any reasonable
ground to suppose there was or would be (and
it is hard to see how any man, taking into
consideration the eyhorbitant price of the
grain, could fail to see that it would run out
some time) swindle, then the note was void
and the Court would leave the matter where
it was. Owing to the number and promi-
nence of the men engaged in the business he
did not like to call it swindle from the face
of the transaction, but would leave that for
the jury to decide. But if the jury decided
that Heydinger was swindler, Marquis,
having accepted bond to do the same thing,
was also one to all intent and purpose"
The jury, after being out several hours, last
evening returned verdict that the oats bus
mess was swindle and the note was void.
The jury was composed of good substantial,
business men and farmers.

The March number of Demorest's Mag
azine will be found unusually interesting. "a
Quaint Cuban City," "Siasconset," and
''The Two Esthers," are remarkably good
articles. Jennie June concludes her paper
on "a Woman's Club" and Mrs. Hart's
serial progresses pleasantly. Among the
Prohibition articles worthy of note are 'The
Responsibility of The Christian Church for
The Liquor Traffic" by W. Jennings Demo-
rest, and --latest Evolutions of the Temper
ance Reform" by Frances E. Willard. Both
of these articles contain the most vigorous
and aggressive thought on the political as
poets of the Prohibition movement. The
various other departments of the Magazine
are well filed, and "The Worlds Progress
is very readable. A beautiful oil picture
early Spring" forms the frontispiece, and
a photogravure of 'sThe Muezzin' is very
striking.
