COL. PooRMAN, Secretary of State, in
MS annual report, makes one valuable
suggestion in relation to the publica.
ton of the laws of the state. The laws.
winch were enacted last winter, and
which went into rec on their passage,
were not published in book form un-
til in September. Col. PooRMAN sug-.
gests that hereafter only the general
laws be published in the annual
volumesand all local laws be published
IN the newspapers of the counties or
districts to which they apply. This is
good suggestion as far as it goes, but
IL does not go far enough. The general
lawsapplyto all the people of the State,
but under the present system ninety
nine per cent. of the people have no
means of ascertaining what these laws
are. There are many changes of old
laws and numerous new ones enacted
every year, but copies of these are
only furnished to those whose duty is
to punish violations. Thus the people
are punished for violating the laws
which they know nothing of and have
no means of obtaining knowledge of.
1t is an inhuman outrage. The proper
solution of this question would be to
publish all laws as soon as passed in
two newspapers in each county. This
would give all the people an opportuni-
ty of knowing the laws, so that ignor-
ance of the law need in fact be no ex-
cuse for its violation,

The Ohio Farmers Insurance Com
many Solid as q Rock.

Attorney General Richards recently rendered an
important opinion in connection with the late
difficulties of the Ohio Farmers Insuranc g Com
pany. He holds that the company notw't 'thstand
ing the recent complication brought about by in
surance commissioner, W. Il. Kinder has legal
existance and can continue business on the stock
plan and would, Il examination was necessary
show more net surplus than required by law, and
considerable more surplus than the average insur-
ance companies doing business in Ohio; and that
it may resume issuing policies on the stock plan as
heretofore.
1t is now really absurd for parties to cancel their
policies and incur short rate expense, as the dan
ger hire which was brought about purely through
malice has now been passed.
Sc curity is abundant and the present low loss
rat is increasing the security daily notwithsiand
| ing all smoke and sensation and malice. Please
observe that we ha, met and are meeting obliga-
tions deily'in the same satisfactory way we always
| did.
| Why did we stop issuing policies? Because we
are carrying as company large amount OF
| money in notes of Farmers due for premiums for
policies issued in order to accommodate our patrons.
Superintendent of insurance, W. H. Kinder, in
listing assets of the company would not admit these
notes as assets, consequently it reduced the net
assets below the amount required by law. That is
| all there was Of it.
We ask our patrons to gee us before changing
companies upon the statement of other agents
there is not any better insurance in the world than
the Ohio Farmers, besides we have the agency ol
other companies, such as the Royal, Phoenix, oi
London, Glens Falls, which are second to nons
represented in Henry county. We can save you
money. S.F.LONG & SON,

to flock to the newly discovered gold
fields in Utah. Reports seem to indi-
cate that they are extensive and fairly
rich. The sands along the Colorado

sparsely distributed as to make impos-
sible the phenomenal washings Of the

County Politicians,
The "Penitentiary Lawyer" viii
Not be Downed.

About a year ago Hiram P. Nc
Knight was brought before Judge
Donnelly from the Wood County jail
on O. writ of Habeas Corpus. 1t was
shown to the satisfaction of the court
that he was unlawfully held, and the
sheriff was therefore ordered to re-
lease him.
Mcknight went back to Bowling
Green and after opening up law Of
flee, instituted proceedings for dam
ages against the officials who impris'
oned him. Enraged at his seeming
audacity, the defendants in the sui
again got after his scalp and did not
rest until he was safely housed behind
the bars at Columbus under a ten
years sentence.
Most men would have given up in
dispair and accepted his fate, and so
thought his enemies over in Wood.
It was then with no little surprise that
the following dispath from Columbus
| in the Toledo Commercial is read:
The encouragement received word
that Judge Taft, of Cincinnati, has
granted Hiram P. Mcknight, OF
Wood County, the right to institute
Habeas Corpus proceedings. Nc
Knight is known as the "penitentiary
attorney" and is now serving his
third term. He pleaded his own case
before the Supreme Court about one
year ago and succeeded in having him.

on the grounds that he was extradited
from New York on one charge and
tried and convicted on another. He
