Another gas we'll has been drilled three
miles north of Upper Sandusky and is with
out doubt the largest producer In the state.

coiled the rope so that 1t was with great
difficulty the drill was got out The peo-

ster, and telegraphed to Pittsburg for ex-
perts. Upper Sandusky has now five
good wells and sufficient gas to supply the
surrounding towns.

ter known as Land Bilp' Allen, the
father of the homestead law, in Columbus,
taxes. The cabin aud little plot of ground
on which it stands had been appraised at
$3.50, and old man Allen had made it his
home since 1889. The place was bid in by
DIR. BEEN of Columbus for $751; The old
mans history aroused great deal OF sym

No Soldiers or Irish Need Apply.

Have you noticed" said a lawyer at the
courthouse, yesterday, that under the
present Democratic county regime the SOL
der and the Irishman have been pretty
thoroughly fired out of the county o~fices!"
There used to be a good many Union vet
Grams in the various county departments,
and good active clerks they were. They
nave been thoroughly eliminated under
Democratic rule. Take the Treasurer's and
recorders offices. for instance. The soldier
element is without representation in the
latter. and in the former the only ex-soldier
on the rolls is Frank Miller, and he served
pleasantness. AS the confederate repre-
sentatien has taken the place of the Union
veterans, the lrishman has disappeared
from the offices. and that looks strange in
a country where the Irish vote mas been the
backbone of the Democratic party. but it

tract" said Mr. G.''i Fletcher teH% that ' the
Indianapolis Natural-gas Company has
no contract with any consumer IN
North Indianapolis; that it never agreed or
contracted with any consumer that natural
gas should be furnished to North Indianap-
oils at the same rate at which it is furnished
in the city of Indianapolis. nor have the
people of that village been led to expects it
by any representations made by the com
pany or any one authorized to speak for the
company. You will see that this contract
provides that the company shall have the
right at all times to discontinue and cut off
the supply of gas, and disconnect the pipes
at the %cOmpany's option n pleasure with
ont notice.
Il may say right here, in relation to the
advance in price at North Indian apolis,
that the same was made with the knowl-
edge and consent of Udell * Schofield,
their position at the time being that it
was for their interest that it should be
one as well as TO the interest of
their consumers. For this reason, the COM
pany having absolute power to shut off the
supply at any time, and the fact coming to
the knowledge of Udell d Schofield that
the company was receiving a large number
Of applications from new consumers in the
city of indianapolis, by reason of other
natural-gas companies refusing to make
further connections this season. they be-
lieved that if the prices were advanced in
North Indianapolis the company would be
less apt to discontinue the supply at that
place to supply the consumers in the city
of Indianapolis.
lyon will also notice by the agreement
hat this company had nothing whatever
to do with the furnishing of gas to private
consumers in North indianapolis. but, on
the contrary. expressly agrees not TO sell
OF furnish gas TO any one but Udell d
Schofield. In relation TO the statement in
the News that some unnamed committee of
persons, representing the consumers at
North Indianapolis had waited upon me
with reference to the matter of advance
ment of rates, | can only say that 1t is ut
terly without foundation and absolutely
North indianapolis ever called upon me or
had any interview with me upon the sub
iec' of natural gas or any other subject. and
never made the statement set forth i'm the
