Editor of Ottawa FREE TRADER:

Editor Of OTTAWA FREE TRADER:
. DEAR SIR have read the state
ment in the SUNDAY FREE TRADER
concerning the dissension in the Evan
gelical church of Ottawa and the al
legged expulsion of Rev. Phi. Zahn by
]. J. Escher. l will submit to you a
few facts and from them you and your
readers may judge whether the once
worthy bishop has any such power or
if this sentence pronounced against
Rev. Zahn is null and void.
Last January charges were preferred
against Bishop j. J. Escher by four
elders of the church. A trial was
ordered and a trial conference of
seventeen elders organized The fol-
lowing is a copy Of the original verdict:
Verdict Of the trial conference in
the matter Of charges by Revs. A. NJ.
Stirk, S. S. Chubb, b. j. Smoyer and
w. +. He'll v Bishop ]. j. Escher, ac-
cusing him of unchristian conduct:
WHEREAS, The legal preliminary
actions have been taken in the trial of
Bishop j. j. Escher; and,
WHEREAS, He refused to recognize
them and did not appear before the
conference Of investigation and, there
fore, did not make defense, thus
willfully evading the trial; and,
WHEREAS, The specifications to-
gether with the charges presented to
this conference were fully sustained

The school election in Ottawa Sat
urday was perhaps the most exciting
ever held in the city, and from the
time the polls opened until they were
closed there was crowd of excited
voters on hand, while an equally large
crowd remained at the window until
the votes had been counted. The I'M
usual thing, also, was seen of excited
men on the streets waiting for the an
nouncement of the result as anxious
ly as for county election.
Mr.. Zwanzig can fairly congratulate
himself on thus making himself a
days sensation, for it is certain that
had he not been running as a candi-
date the election would have been very
tame, indeed. He can also bear in
mind that his sensational day was not
so much himself, personally, as it was
the curiosity of the people of Ottawa
to know whether a man who had made
such record as is complained of in
his case, could be elected to any Office
in the city of Ottawa. Voters every
where will at times make queer
"breaks," and the question was, will
they do it in Ottawa?
They did not do 1t.

Tie City's Health.

Thus far in January rs burial permits
have been issued by the City Health
Officer, against IS for December, IS for
November and 81 Tor October. This &C.
rious increase in the death rate exists
not only in Wheeling but in almost all
other cities in the Union. While it is
not a local matter it Is none the less ser-
Gus, and should receive prompt attcn-
ton. The best authorities on health
and sanitation agree that after such an
epidemic as the one the country is now
passing through, diarrheal diseases are
usually quite prevalent, and owing to
the constitutional condition OF the peo-
pie are very malignant and hard to han
die. Cholera and other kindred diseases
are much feared, and in other places,
efforts to put everything in the best pos
sible sanitary shape are being made.
La Grippe holds on with vicious per-
tinacity, and the druggists are kept busy.
One drug clerk said yesterday that he
was called out OF bed twelve times
during Wednesday night.
