Superintendent Elected.

Last Monday evening" the Board
of Education held a meeting for the
election of Superintendent of schools
Prof. @. l.. Pierpont, of Warren, Ohio,
was chosen for the position vacated
by Prof. Boyer, who goes to Circle
vile next week.
Mr.. Pierpont comes to us very high
ly recommended; he has had a
thorough training in school, both as
student and teacher; it is to be hoped
a Most pleasing success will follow
his labors among us. Prof. Pierpont
is married. His wife is an educated
lady and also at one time teacher.
They are blessed with little daugh-
ter, six years of age. The new Sup
erintendent was elected for one year
at salary of one thousand dollars.
We hope that the time he shall spend
among us shall be looked upon by
all as well improved, aud we believe
it will, as every Indication is for his
success and happiness and the fur
ther improvement of our schools.

TO JOLLY THE WEST
Is the Hope of the Admin

Henderson.
FORCED UPON HIM

Washington Hews.

WASHINGTON, June IA, 1S99.-
When the influences which were
brought to bear in his favor were
considered, the ease with which
Henderson, of Iowa, knocked out
all the other candidates for Speaker
and made his own election certain
had nothing wonderful about it. 1t
was a simple case of cause and eff
feet. The principal factor in his
speedy success was the tip given out
by the administration in his favor.
That tip was little bit puzzling at
first, because it had beeu understood
that the administration was rather
inclined to favor Sherman when
Reeds retirement first became
known. TLere were several reasons
for the transfer of the favor of the
administration from Sherman to
Henderson. Mr.. Mckinley was
jealous of the influence that Tom
Reed would have with Sherman,
wished to jolly the west by aiding 1T
to capture the Speakership, and was
most anxious, of all to put man in
the Speakers chair who could not
become candidate for President; !;
Henderson's birthplace was Scot
land. The great personal popularity
of Henderson made it easier to en-
gineer the stampede to him than it
would have been to any other man
who was named as a candidate.
While no man in Congress is strong
er partisan than Dave" Henderson,
no man in Congress has fewer per-
sonal enemies than he. What his
policy as Speaker will be is yet to be
ascertained. AS member of Reeds
committee on Rules he always help.
ed to carry out the Reed programme
The most interesting bit of poll
tical gossip of the week is that in adj
dition to practicing law in New York
Mr.. Reed intends to retain his sea-
in the House and to take an impor-
tant part in all discussions that viii
give him chance to pay off an ole
score or to push himself to the heat
of his party. Although this is only
rumor, with the probabilitie
strongly against it, there is alarm il
administrator circles on account o
it. There is no doubt that Mr.. Ree(
, could make lot of trouble for th
administration should he set uD as
free lance on the floor of the House
as he is known to be opposed to tn
policy of the administration on
;; number of important questions. Mr.
{, Mckinley would much sooner hav

: his party responsibility would act a
a restraint than to have him on tn
floor armed with club and lookin

A Hot Time i'm Columbus.

Up to noon today Director Of Pub
lie Safety Dusenbury had not return
ed from the east and no word had
been received from him by the
officials at the City hall.
M,yor Swartz was not in his office
and his private secretary, Mr.. Linn
Neareamer, reported that he was
confined to his home by illness. I'm
der these circumstances no interview
could be obtained with either the
mayor or Director Dusenbury con-
cerning the attack made all along the
line ON the director by the ministers
Of the city at their meeting Monday.
Mr.. Eli West, partner Of Director
Dusenbury in the park venture, was
seen and talked with decided en-
phasis with reference to the matter.
Said he: "You may say for me
that every statement made by Messrs
connection were lies out of whole
cloth. They lied in their throats,
they lied in their hearts with the full
knowledge that they were doing 30
when they made those assertions.
Rev. Baker says that / resigned
$1,000 position to accept another at
1920 at the penitentiary, which Is a
| lie.
81 resigned as clerk Of the sinking
fund, a $l20O position, at the request
of the governor of the state Of Ohio,
who wan, ed me to take the steward
ship of the penitentiary. Mr.. Baker
can see the governor for confirmation
of this statement. Rev. Harris says
he saw written agreement with my
signature agreeing that the Olen-
tangy theatre should not be opened
on Sunday, which is lie. No such
an agreement was ever made; no
such paper can be produced. No
such paper ever existed and Rev.
Harris knew it when he said 80. He
licu uia
Rev. Anderson says that the ban
ners of the Loyal Temperance legion
were removed from the street cars at
the order Of the park officials. He
knew this WAS falsehood, for we
had nothing whatever to do with the
street cars nor whatever banners
they may have carried. That order
was given from the street car super
intendent's office when newspaper
man had appraised the street car
officials of the nature of the banners.
The street car people cannot and will
not deny that.
"rhey say that had an agreement
with Mr.. Ovens that the theatre
should not be opened on Sunday.
Why should make any agreement
with Ovens? What connection or In
fiuence had he over the management
of our theatre? The whole protest,
and the claim made therein, is a
tissue of falsehoods."

Pleasant Outing.

On last Sunday a number of our
citizens with their ladies assembled
at Blosser's Grove near Enterprise
and spent the day joyously beneath
the rich foliage of the spreading
forest. A most sumptnoas luncheon
was served, and most delightful
day spent. The affair was institut-
ed by Mr.. John Nixon and wife in
honor Of their house guests Mr.. and
Mrs. Thurman Thompson of Co.
lumbus. Those present were Cap
tain and Mrs. w. j. Ryan, Mr.. and
Mrs. VIM. Waner, Mr.. and Mrs,
John Nixon, Mr.. and Mrs. j. N
Slater, MIR. and Mrs e. O. Petit,
Sheriff and Mrs. Brandt, Mr.. and
Mrs. ID. III. Lappen, Mr.. and Mrs.
John Easterling, of Logan and Mr.,
and Mrs. Thompson, and Mrs
Sagstetter of Columbus.

SOliday-- --O'Neil.

We chronicle in another column
the marriage license of our good
friend Dan Soliday of Carbonhill to
Miss Clara O'Neil. Now, Dan was
a caller of ours this week when in
town but he never told us thing
about his proposed intention of be-
coming benedict. He never
sought our advice or intimated a
thing about it. There is only one
reason we will forgive Dan for this
secrecy from us, and that is that it
is high time he was getting married
He has been of age some time, aud
considered the matter long and
well, and now has taken the leap
with his eyes open. We sincerely
hope that he may have a happy
welded life and may few clouds
sh ade the peace of their sojourn to-
gether.

Obituary..

DoLLIsoN-Margaret Dollison,
whose maiden name was Burley,
was born in Perry. Co., O., and died
in Gibisonville, Hooking Co, o.,
June 9Th, 1899, aged 70 years,
month and 3 days. She was the
wife of Armstrong Dollison who
died April Sth, 1899,
This union was blessed by 10
children, sons and 2 daughters,
four of her sons dying young. She
leaves sons, 2 daughters, 16 grand
children, great grandchildren, l
brother to mourn.
She was converted many years
ago and united with the Old School
Baptist church at SCOTS Creek,
which connection she re5ained un-
til her death.
Deprived often, from attending
the monthly meeting of her church,
she engaged heartily in the services
of the u. b. and M. r. churches of
Gibisonville giving her testimony
to the power of Jesus to forgive sins.
She delighted to read her Bible, in
which may be found many sem
tences marked by her to which no
doubt her mind had been directed
by the Holy Spirit, and which con-
tanned food for the soul. Her fun
eral sermon was preached by Elder
G. V. McBroom from JOHN 1920,
at is finished," after which the
choir sang the following lines from
kith:
"How firm foundation ye saints of the
Lore,
Is laid for your faith, in His excellent
word,
What more can He say, than to you He has
said,
TO you who for refuge to Jesus have fed"

out for heads to crack, with no res
possibility to anything except his
constituents. This gossip is likely
to continue until Mr.. Reed resigns
as a member of the House, which
nobody seems to know when he will
do, if at all.
Boss Hanna is trying to enact the
role of the boy who has to be begged
to play. He says he doesn't wish to
remain at the head of the republican
National Committee, during next
years campaign, because his health,
for which he has been ordered to
Europe, isn't what it was, and be-
cause there is So much work attach
ed to the position that it allows him
no opportunity to indulge in recre-
alton and diversions. He gave the
whole snap away by adding that the
position might be forced upon him
again, in which case he would take
it, but he wanted it known that he
would do so against his wishes.
Tommyrot every word of it. Hanna
would throw series of fits if he
thought any other man would be put
at the head of the republican COM
mittee. Owing to his numerous
trust connections, he is making a
grandstand play, intended to con-
vince jays that he doesn't wish to
manage the campaign.
EX-Congressman Follet, of Ohio,
is sanguin that the democrats have
more than fighting chance to carry
that State this year. He said:' The
democrats of Ohio have solid grounds
for believing that they can elect the
Gov. this year. The revolt among
the republicans who dislike Senator
Hanna and his methods, who are
dissatisfied with the nomination oi
Judge Nash, will split the republican
party asunder. In fact, the breach
between the factions is too wide tC
be healed, and all talk of harmony il
for effect. The Ohio democracy IL
going into this campaign united con
fident and enthusiastic, while the
opposition, conscious OF the division
in its ranks, is timid and dubious o
the result"
