Messrs. Blanton and Mobley held

tity or something i'll man that survives
the death of the body" Mr.. Mobley
affirmed, and Mr.. Blanton denied. Each
one piled up evidence to prove his point
and either side would have been proven
if the other side had not disproyed it.
The Cresset, in speaking of A. H.
Peck, says, IF successful this fall, the
Taxpayers can rest assured that E. B
Peck Will not turn the Office over to in
competent hands" The general i'm
preston is that whether he is success
or unsuccessful, the Office will be il
| competent hands. If he is successful
the suppositiOn is that Z. B. Peck vii
run the office; he is gentleman, and q
good, competent officer. If A. II. PecE
be unsuccessful, Mr.. Potes will take
| the office, and the taxpayers are no,
worrying about his ability. We think
the treasurer'S office will be in gooG
hands next year.
Mr.. McNeal said, in his article last
week. "In every case the mortgage has

The mortgage is satisfied, but will Mr.
Neal say that the debt is satisfied, and
the man who has given mortgage $50(
on a piece of land, and that land sell:
under foreclosure for $40 or 500, car
safely engage in business in Ohio OF
