Rottenness.

The election of Capt. McMacken of To-
ledo to the treasurership of the county is one
Of the greatest impositions ever perpetrated
on suffering people. McMacken has been
an office holder all his life and had but few
months prior laid down the 3" puddin'" of
county recorder which he held six years. The
republican machine in Lncas county is as
absolute a monarchy as Russia. McMacken
as the papers say. with all other candidates
on the republican ticket this fall, stood in
with the bosses and after the deal was made
with them he was assured of an election.
Such rottenness in politics should be turned
down with mailed hand.

FOR ARSON
John Hendricks is Held For a Com.
mon Pleas Jury.

Early Wednesday morning of last week,
the barn of Sam'l Overmire, living in Wash
lngton tp., was burned to the ground with
all its contents including grain. 1t was val
ued at 5000 with insurance of $500.
Circumstances pointed to the work of an
incendiaryand Mr.. Overmire swore out an af-
fidavit charging John Hendricks, bis III Gle,
with perpetrating the crime. He war ar.
rested and brought to Napoleon and pre-
liminary hearing was held Saturday. BY ev-
idence produced it was shown that several
traced footsteps from the scene of the fire to
the house of Israel Moore with whom MIR.
Hendricks resides, the former being his
son-in-law. Mr.. Moore was routed out and
asked to produce his father-in-Iaw's shoes,
which he did. Upon measurement and ex-
animation the witnesses claim that the
tracks made were undoubtedly those that
would have been made by Mr.. Hendricks.
Witnesses also testified that an aninnosity
has existed between the Overmires and the
defendant and that the latter had made
threats.
Israel Moore testified that the defendant
had been in his house from 10 O'Clock Tues
day to O'Clock Wednesday; that both he
and the baby we're sick that night and il
was impossible for anyone to leave the
house without him knowing it; that he had
asked Messrs. Frank and John Mohler and
Jim Slater, the trackers, to continue and
follow the same tracks by the house, but for
some reason they didn't do it; that he,
(Moore) had followed the tracks past his
house fully so rods, the next morning in go
ing to work. Ga cross examination he said
he did not think enough of the case to pur.
sue his search.
The case consumed the greater part of the
day and it was o'clock before it was
rested. In the opinion of the court, the evi
dence was sufficient to bind the defendant
over to Common Pleas court in bail of ST..
600.
The defendant was unable to furnish
bond, in default of which a mittimus was
issued to the Sheriff and he was incar.
cerated in the County prison. His friends
think he will furnish the required bond thi,

sitiou that 1t is not the friend" who seeks

he did you, who really did turn over his
hand in your behalf. A true friend will new

again, old politicians bank little on chronic
political gossips who almost unconsciously
prevaricate 10 order to make his end, viz:
Create little futter of sensation.
