When any Industry that is so great
as coal mining pays so little to en-
plOyees HAT they are unable to save
enough during the season when they
have work to care for themselves aud
families during a,brief period of idle
ness, there is certainly something
wrong about the management some
where. On one ever heard of a mine
owner going hungry, nor of u coal
Dealers family going without shoes in
Winter. but for some peculiar reason
there are many miners families who
are actually on the verge OF starvation
and right here in Ohio where the coal
mines are the best in the world. There
is something radically wrong some
where, and while the charitable peo-
pie are nsributing to the needs of
these sufferers it would be- well TO in
stitute an investigation of the causes
that lead to so much misery.

January II, 1895.
To WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN:
In view of the many depredations
that are being committed in this vi
cinity, and the late attempt made on
the bank in our own village, the conclu-
sion seems inevitable that the country
is ut present infested with a class of
persons whose sole object is robbery, at
the expense OF human life if necessary.
For the purpose OF protecting the lives
and property of citizens our Council
has provided an additional safe guard
and In addition desires the cooperation
OF all good citizens to that end.
AS the discharge of ire arms in our
village interferes with the arrange
ments thus made, hereby give notice
that there is an ordinance OF the Coz
poration now in force prohibiting the
discharge of fire arms within the Cor
porate limits and that all persons here
after violating tho same will be prose-
cuted.

The report OF the County Commis-
sioners, together with the report OF
the Examining Committee appointed
by Judge johnson is published in the
Sentinel this week. The Examining
Committee make special reference to
the amount drawn by eX-Auditor Will
son Hs such uiiiYiul According to the
report MIR. Wilson is charged with re-
ceiviug S0,5lD.TS during the last 10
months OF his time as Auditor, I'LL OF
which was properly shown on the
books of The Office with no attempt ut
coucealment. This amount seems ex
cessively large, but in an interview
published in the Sentinel Mr.. Wilson
the amount was so large. The regular
salary amounts TO S3,Ol0, and in addi-
tion to this salary he receives fixed
fees for road and ditch work, settle
ment with school treasurers, ETC., caus-
ing the salary to frequently amount to
five or six thousand dollars annually.
MIR. Wilson says: "Now this COM
mittee says that for the year ending
September 3, 1894, | received S59iS.49, |
then they say from that time To October
10, when | went out of office, received
enough to make u total amount of
S95l07S for l3 months. In selecting |
these l3 months TO make this large |
sum, they have Tapped over just at a
time TO duplicate my fees for two years.
My salary for the year ending Septem
ber last TO make the total oil S50IS.94, |
included fees for work done the year
previous. The additional payment re-
ceived in October was for work done
during the summer of 1894 aud should
properly appear, as it will, in the COM
missioners report for the next year.
My fees for last year we're more than
usual for kept Two men all the time,
and part of the time three, and finished
up all the work. so that when | went
out OF Office there was no unfinished
work for the new auditor. This extra
help cost me $3.50 month tnat is why
this amount seems so large. Had
been going To stay in the office | would
have done this work during the winter
and received my pay about April or
May next"
We believe the Commissioners and
Mr.. Wilson will be able to clear them
selves of any charges of irregularity in
Office, and the people should not be too
hasty in making their decisions in
such cases.
