A. A. MADISON.
Pe-ru-na attained great popularity
among the officers Of the army as well as
the navy during the late war with Spain.
A great many letters were received from
field and hospital corps, indicating that
this popular climatic remedy has become
well nigh indispensable to them. Pc
ru-na is not only National remedy, but
has proven itself q National blessing.

Richardson against the Plain and Jack
son township Mutual Insurance COM
pany. Richardson lived in Plain town
ship and the barn, in which his produce
was stored, burned. He sued the insur-
ance company for $3.50 on an insurance
policy. The insurance company set up
the claim that his policy had been can
celled two years before the fire and
that he had not been paying any as
.sessments and was therefore not enti-
tied to recover anything. Attorney
SpCnseller represented the plaintiff and
Judge Fawcett the defendant. The tes-

HAVE FOUND CITIZENS
Who Do Not Think 1t Is the Proper
Thing at This Time.
THEY WANT A GENERAL BILL
Think That Special Legislation Has Been
Carried TOO Far--seDator wilhelm
Found Some Opposition Among
Citizens of Canton While
He Was Here.

Special to News-Democrat.
Columbus, Feb. 6.-Several members
have received letters from citizens and
societies protesting against the passage
of the Canton ripper bill.
Representative Metzgar being asked
whether he thought the Snyder bill
would be generally acceptable to Canton
tpeople declined to venture an opinion.
He asserted, however. that it was a
poor commentary upon the Ohio NUM-
cipal laws generally that there were
so many appeals for and so much appa-
rent need Of special legislation. He
thought the sooner the legislature could
pass general code, applicable to all
cities and towns of the state, the better
1t would be for all concerned.
Senator Wilhelm, in talking on the
read the Snyder bill, and was not pre-
pared to give an opinion upon it. He
had been in Canton during part of the
recess since last Friday, and he had
discovered considerable opposition. to
the ripper bill. AS to the new muni-
cipal code, he feared it was almost too
big contract for this legislature, in
the limited time before it, to handle
The underlying principles of the pro-
posed code were right; the only question
was just how best to make these prin-
ciples applicable to the everyday af-
fairs of a municipal corporation. He
feared the new code in it's present form
would make a big machine, of which
every city and town in the state would
be part.
Mr.. Pollock "has troubles of his own. =
Although he declined to be interviewed
on the subject of the circular letter of
P. A. Baker, State superintendent of
the Anti-Saloon league, which has been
circulated extensively in, Stark county
and reproduced in the News-Democrat
of February 8, it is evident that his po-
sition on the temperance committee of
the house is not equivalent to bed of
roses with a pillow of down. While it
| is true that he, with Mr.. Satin, refused
| to sign the report of the committee rec
ommending the Clark local option bill
| for passage, yet there is at least one
|
seems to have been made without full
knowledge of the facts. That is, that
Mr.. Pollock was placed on the commit
tee "at the request of the liquor peo-
pie" The News-Democrat correspon-
dent has personal knowledge of the
manner of Mr.. Pollock's being placed
on the temperance committee. When
the committees were announced in the
house, Mr.. Cole, of Hancock, who was
named as member of the committee
on temperance, expressed disinclina-
ton to serve on that committee. About
the same time, but not in the same pres
ence, it was suggested to Mr.. Pollock
who had a place upon but one commit
tee, that Of geology of mines and min
ing Qts chairman), that he take the
place on the temperance committee
which Mr.. Cole desired to vacate. To
this Mr.. Pollock agreed; and this COM
ing to Speaker Reynolds ears he made
the appointment.
