RENOVATION
Is What is Demanded OF the Southern
Ohio Teachers Association.

The scandalous tales that are 60
ing the rounds Of the newspapers
concerning the depravity on the
part of few teachers that stopped
Mt the Ulsamer House while at Gal.
lipolis in attendance ut the South.
ern Ohio Teachers Association,
stated in the mysterious way that
it is, giving no clue to the guilty
parties, throws q stigma and dis
grace upon the whole association,
which veil Of disgrace it is demand
ed by the friends of tho innocent
teachers. must be lifted and the
guilty parties made known to the
public, that those not guilty may
not suffer with the guilty, as they
are now. The telling of some dis
graceful actions on the part of some
teachers at the Association meet
ing at Gallipolis and not stating
who the guilty parties are, or where
they hail from, casts reflection
upon the whole association and all
suffer alike at the hands of the COM
mon public who have not access to
the facts pertinent to the sitting
out of the chaff from the grain.
Our Logan people, knowing the
guilty parties were none of our
own teachers, may think the Mel
sonville teachers are the depraved
ones; while on the other hand Mel
sonville knows that mono of her
teachers are involved, and have
their suspicious concerning Logan
teachers, and the facts ARE that
both are guiltless. Now itremains
for the Association to defend her.
self. Defend your innocent by
publishing the guilty.
You may hold that the Associ-
alton is not responsible for what a
thoughtless, depraved, disgraceful
few might do. True you are not
responsible, but the public opinion
holds him an accessory to n crime
who is a companion Of the criminal,
until the guilt ofthe latter is shown,
to the edification of the former.
Renovate yourselves. Call a
meeting of your executive board
and investigate the matter, and
make public your investigation,
and thus lift the possible cloud of
foreign accusation that may hover
around the stainless garments of
our pure teachers at home.

"THE people are turning up their
noses at Wesley Haines because he
looks SO seedy," says the Repudh-
can Gazette, of last week. If ever
there was a shameful newspaper
remark made about anybody, this
certainly is the basest among that
class. Mr.. Haines is one of the pi-
oneer citizens of Logan. Old age
and infirm health has usurped his
pride of dress, and the fine clothes,
silk hat and erect form of former
years have given place to the COM
mon clothes and rounded shoulders
characteristic to the majority of old
men whose lives are almost spent,
and they have but to await the call
that bears them to their eternal re-
ward. Uncle Wesley was stall
wart soldier in the late rebellion,
received an honorable dischage and
is now rewarded for his merits by
a government pension. He has a
host of friends in Logan that honor
his old gray hairs, and who feel
the insult as keenly as though it
were their father against whom
the vile fling was hurled. We are
surprised at the Gazette, which is
run by two people purporting to be
soldiers, and who, when 1t comes to
eeediness, will have their day, that
they should assail one Of their old
comrades in such personal man.
ner, because he is not SO fortunate
as they In having good health and
ambition to look pretty. We dare
say that beneath the rusty gar
ments Of Wesley Haines there beats
p nobler heart than the broadcloth
Of his assailant has once the chance
to cover.

ATHLETIC CLUB--An organization
of an athletic club was effected on
Wednesday night by some of the
young men OF this place at Grantham
Hall, and every indication is that the
affair will be a bowling success. Mr..
G. A. Young was made President,
W. Harry Smith, Vice President,
Charles Weaving secretary andChas.
Spillman, Treasurer. A committee
on membership and bylaws was ap-
pointed. In addition to the athletic
part of the organization reading
room will be connected with the or.
CARNATIONS, which will have a bene.
fetal effect on the many young men
who might otherwise frequent places
of no benefit to them.

Advice About the Eye.

The man or woman whose sight
is good forgets all about the pre-
cious sense of sight, and such cat
astrophe as impaired vision of blind
ness is never dreampt of.
Even when because of age glasses
become necessary most foolhardy
economy will prevent the possessor
to have the proper glasses fitted and
for the sake of few dollars or in
deed a few cents she eyes are put off
to do the best they can with pair Of
glasses wich are totally unsuitable.
The eye in health is capable of won
derful work, but It must have q rea-
sonable amount of care or its capaci-
ty TO help its owner may be greatly
reduced in years to come. When it
warns you that something is wrong,
pay attention to it, and consult COM
petent advice, in order to satisfy
your mind whether any trouble more
serious is to follow. The question
arises ITO whom shall / go ~ The
wisest plan is to consult your family
physician first. He will probably
after examination find that glasses
are needed, and for these will refer
you to Leech, Stiles & Co.'s repre-.
sentative who is making regular WIS.,
its to this city. Leech, Styles &
Co., formerly with Queen & Co., OF
Philadelphia, are reliable firm who
thoroughly understand how glasses
should be fitted. Your eyes will be
safe with shem. The next visit to

CHURCH SocIABLE.-The ladies of
Trinity Episcopal, who had in charge
the church sociable, at the residence
of Mrs. Buckles, on Tuesday night
last, desire to express their thanks
to the kind friends of other congre-
cations who patronized them, but
feel constrained to say that they did
receive the encouragement from the
members of their own con gregation
that they had right to expect.
A novel feature of the social was
the sale, at auction, of old maids,
which was productive of much
amusement, but the bashful old bach
eIors showed woeful lack of appre-
citation of the opportunity afforded
them, and were not as keen in bid
ding as was to have been expected,
but seemed to consider them very
dear at any price. In fact it was
like casting pearl before swine

For BoYER.-T he Winchester
Ne.Os is firm friend ofC. W. Boyer.
This is what it says about his candl-
dacy for the Post Office:
We have all along thought that
Senator Faulkner could not fail to
recognize the claims of Editor Boy
er, of the Statesman. He belongs to
that energetic class of young men
who are ever active in the party
ranks, fondly, true to it's principle
who has given his time and ability
to it's success, and also has contri-
buted through the columns of his
paper, the oldest and strongest organ
in Berkeley, and most of the Demo
cratic literature the people of his
county receive. He has been for
years secretary of the county exc
cutive committee, which requires no
inconsiderable amount of time and
labor. He is in the strictest sense
self made man, and consequently
he is in close touch with the needs
and desires of the masses, and he
has ever with an unfaultering hand
pointed out to them that their rights
can best be subserved under the
banner of the grand old Democratic
party, and judging from the impress
sion we have gotten from intercourse
with the rank and file Of party in
Martinsburg Senator Faulkner can
not fail to notify such endorsements
as Editor Boyer has,"

A RUNoR.-There is a rumor to
the effect that Judge E. Boyd Faulk-
ner, will resign the Circuit Judgeship
at an early date. We hope it is not
true, for Judge Faulkner has been
one of the best, if not the very best
Judges who has ever occupied our
bench. Courtesy and decision has
marked his record and his executive
ability has already saved every coun-
ty in his circuit many dollars
Farmers advocate.
We have never heard CT any such
rumor, and hope such is net the case.
We endorse every word of what has
been said as to the Judges eminent
qualities.

THE GREGORY TRIAL-Much inter
est as all along been manifested in
the trial of Mr.. Thomas Gregory who
was indicted under six charges for
grand and petit larceny. During
the trial of all these cases the inter-
est of the community never tagged,
and the Court House was packed
with listeners. Inthe trial for steal
ing the meat of Callahan he was
found guilty and the Court sentenc-
ed him to six years in the peniten-
tiary. This was in tact the test case.
Trial was also held in two of the

verdict ofguilty was found. Gregory
had entered plea of not guilty upon
the charge of stealing meat from Mr..
John Bowman but afterwards with
drew his plea and plead guilty"
The Court sentenced him to six
years in the penitentiary, which will
make IL years in all.

points have arisen in the case. The

sided, as Judge Faulkner was for
merly interested as counsel. Messrs.
