10 years, three months and "a days.

Mrs. Hillabrand came to America in
1851, and together with her husband,

She was devout christian woman,

The coal miners OF Ohio and OF the
country generally will fully understand
where their real friends are. Candi-
date Chapman has declined to do any
thing to meet the demands of the min
ers upon the theory that he is bound
by the action and desires OF the mine
owners association. On the other hand
Senator Hanna devised, presented, and
obtained the assent Of mine owners
generally to plan conceded to be by
far the best proposed and one likely to
lead to a settlement of the strike. Talk
OF friendship is cheap, but 1t takes def
mite action to prove whether it means
anything.

AGAINST ISSUING BONDS.

The question of bonding the town for
the purpose OF establishing Water
Works and an Electric Light plant
under municipal control came before
the people last Saturday, and the vote
resulted as follows:
For Electric Lights,-No, 142
4" A" Yes, 81
For Water Works,-No, 145
" Yes, 46
1t will thus be seen that the people
are strongly opposed to expending any
OF the village exchequer for such i'm
provements.
Many people believe that the town is
not in condition to make use of water
works until after we have system ol
sewers. Again when our present
bonded debt is considered it is hard to
convince people that an additional
$50 900 would help the financial con
dition. However, the question mas
been settled, and in a proper manner
and all good people Will be willing tt
abide by the decision.

total of $53, 10000, still remains unpaid,
and for the payment of which principal
and interest provision must be made by
the Corporation, from year to year, for
several years to come, and
WHEREAS-The ownership of, and
interest in certain property, by this
Corporation has been and is the cause
OF much contention and wrangling
among our citizens, and the ownership
and control OF additional property by
our corporate authorities would in our
opinion but add to the differences and
disagreements which already exist, and
WHEREAS,-In view of the large
amount of indebtedness now existing
against us as Corporation, and the fact
that all property owners both rich and
poor wherever residing in the eorpor-
alton will be called upon to assist in
paying the same, and
WHEREAS, Private individuals ano
companies stand ready and can be founo
to erect and maintain all Electric Ligh
and Water Works plants which we as
