Made a Good officer.

On Monday, Inirmary Director Schall
turned the Office over to his successor, II.
E Stuckman.
The retir ng member has made a good
officer, and for the first time in over seven
teen years finds himself with the duties of
no Office on his hands. He was trustee and
coustableof Pleasant township, also school
director, for numb,r of terms. He was
elected Indrmary Director in 1886 and
again in 1889, thus holding the Office six
years.
Mr.. Schall has lived in Henry County ov-
er ffty-eight years, having been born in
Pleasant township, June 90, 1874. He re-
sided there until about four years ago when
he moved to Liberty township where he now
lives. A resident of Pleasant township for
over ffty-four years, he has seen that Sec
tion develope into the present fine condition.
Surrounded by thick woods wherein dwelled
the wild beast and red man, he cleared an
excellent farm and assisted materially in
bringing the town hip up to its present high
standard in improvements.
In lo70he married an estlmable young lady
of Highland township, Defiance county,
Miss Christina Bauer, and is the father of
five boysand four girls.
He has always been Democrat and says
he will always remain one.
That the incoming director, Mr.. Stuck
man. will follow in the broad path of square
dealing travelled by Mr.. Schall, we have every
reason to believe.

ABLOV ATCANADA
Reported That President Har-
risOn VIII Deliver One
Just Before the End of His Adj
ministration.

Alleged That a Proclamation VIII Soon
BE Issued CurtaiIing or AbOIishing the
transportation of Goods by Canadian
Railroads Through the United States in
Bond.
TORONTO, Jan. "A dispatch dated
at Washington and received here last
Saturday states in effect that President
Harrison has determined to make the
end of his administration notable by a
blow at Canada in the shape of presi-
Dental proclamation, curtailing or
abolishing privileges now enjoyed by
Canadian railways Of transporting
goods through the United States in
bond.
1t has excited considerable comment
here. The Globe says: IF there is a
substantial ground of complaint against
Canadian roads there is surely some
more business-like and dignifed way of
dealing with the question than these
everlasting seedlings and the dark hints
at blows at Canada"
The Globe thinks that there is hope
that with the advent of the Cleveland
administration in March more
straightforward mode of dealing with
these questions will be adopted.

THE DYNAMITE GUN
Again Coming to the Front-Advocated
by Commander FoIger.

Again Coming to the Front-Advocated
by Commander Folger.
New YORK, Jan. 3.-The Herald's
special from Washington says:
The dynamite gun is coming to the
front again. Strange as it may seem
Commader Folger, who has always con-
demned the dynamite cruiser Vesuvius
and her guns, is now hearty advocate
of the system. Before severing his con-
nection with the ordnance bureau he
formally approved design for first
class torpedo thrower. The design Of
the torpedo boat and gun, although
bearing the mark Of the ordnance bu-
reau, is almost an exact duplicate of the
plans recently furnished by the Yarrow
company, of England, to the Dynamite
Gun company, Of this country. The
craft will contain the usual torpedo ap-
paratus as an important auxiliary to
the dynamite gun. The gun itself is an
improved Zalinsli gun. The intention
is to ask congress to make an appropria-
ton for several of these torpedo boats
during the present session. The house
naval committee will soon take up tie
subject of new ships, and should the
Vesuvius guns come up to the expecta-
ton of the advocates it is understood
that Chairman Herbert will favor the
construction Of torpedo boat or two
mounted with dynamite guns Of the
improved type.

KENTUCKY FARMERS UP IN ARMS.

Due Over Twenty Years.


They VIII Resist the Collection of Taxes
Due Over Twenty Years.
PRINCETON, KY, Jan. 3.-The taxpay-
ers of Muhlenburg county are up in
arms over an attempt made to collect
the railroad tax OF the county voted
about twenty years ago for the building
of the Elizabethtown and Paducah rail
road. No tax has been paid for nearly
twenty years, although every legal pro-
cess has been through with to force the
people to pay it.
A short time ago certain bondholders
who got a judgment against the county
induced A. M. Capps, a citizen of this
county, to undertake the collection OF
their debts.
When it came to preparing the tax re-
ceipts the assessors books were stolen
and duplicates had to be gotten from the
lists in the state auditors office. The
collection has begun and many of the
citizens in the country precincts swear
they will shed blood before they will
pay cent. Various threats have been
made against Capps, and it is feared he
will be assessinated in the discharge of
his duty as tax collector.
The people have fought the collection
Of the tax through the courts until they
have finally come to the point where
they will have to resist by physical
force or pay. The debt now amounts
to about $780, 600, OF one-half of the
assessable value of property in the
county

Ho is Much Better But Still Not Able to
Sit Up.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-''Mr. Blaine is
much better" said Dr. Johnston Sunday
evening. "Mr. Blaine is little better,
said the attendant at the door of Mr..
Blaine's residence an hour later. When
asked if Mr.. Blaine sat up any yet DR..
Johnston replied in the negative. While
there are rumors from time to time that
Mr.. Blaine is to be removed to some
warmer climate, no preparations have
thus far been made by the family for
such q journey. The fact that Mr..
Blaine is noU able to sit up seems to be
taken as evidence that the period of his
removal is very remote, at best.
Sick as Mr.. Blaine is he still exhibits
much Of that wonderful will power and
nerve that have carried him through
more then one crisis. In the presence
of his family he tries to be cheerful and
hopeful of the future. There are times
when he discusses his plans for the
future, especially those Of a literary ma
ture. It is understood that in case he
should not be able to carry out certain
of his literary plans he has arranged to
have the papers relating to public mat
ters in his possession edited and pub
lished at the proper time.
At midnight Mr.. Blaine's apartments
were in darkness. His physicians had
retired for the night.
