issued to John II. willard, two TO the
Kent City bank, and one TO the Kent
National bank -Four other alleged
forgeries were brought to the atten-
tion of the grand jury, but the prose
cutor thought it was useless to further
cucumber the record These forgerles
have extended over a period of three
years.
Because of these last unexpected de.
velopments the prisoner was not
brought into court to plead, as ex.
pected but 1t has been determined
now to have him plead next Tuesday
when the cases will be assigned fol
trial, probably the following week
Because of possible legal compllca
tions, the prosecutor will elect to try
the forgery cases prior to the one FOL
shooting with intent to kill. 1t is prac
tically agreed that Hon. $. L. Wolcott
of Kent, will be assigned to assist
G. B. Newton i'm the defense.
When Kieffer was appraised of til,
forgery developments he had Sc

physician was summoned The de
fiant,. immovable attitude which ha
been characteristic of Kieifer since hi
arrest changed, and he is beginning t.
look careworn.

HOME RULE

pie of Akron.
Attorney Findlay's Comment Upon
Local Meeting.
look careworl

attorney Flndlays comment upon
Local Meeting.
To the Editor of the Democrat:
l was much pleased on reading the
report of the meeting held by the
Economic League on Tuesday evening.
The subject discussed, Municipal Re
FORM was ably ana intelligently
handled / do hope enough has al
ready been said on the question by
the League to arouse the sympathy
OF every good citizen and to secure
from henceforth his active co-opeia-
ton in helping TO promote and attain
the subjects aimed at by that public
spirited association,-the Economic
League. Senator Sieber struck the key
note in stating that "I1omc Rule is
what the people desire in the govern
nlent of their own city. And sucn
home rule, l hope, as will forever eX
plode the idea that cities are to be
governed by political parties-that be-
fore the Chief Magistrate of IA city is
selected, it is first to be determined
what his politics are, and whether he
believes in high tariff, low tariff, free
trade, etc. A municipal government
is no more nor less than Il vast bust
ness enterprise to be run and managed
simply to promote the interest and
happiness of its stockholders, the peo-
pie be they Jews, Christian or intldels.
Streets are to laid out and improved
and used as the equal common high
WAYS of all. Sewers are to be con-
structed; light and water supplied:
waterways improved and enlarged;
and generally the health, happiness
and prosperity of all promoted,-such
an enterprise can only be successfully
carried on by the strict application of
correct business principles,
In order TO secure an honest, intel
ligent bUsiness-like management OF our
city government, there must be an alb
solute separation of our municipal af-
fairs from State and National politics
Merit and merit alone should govern
in the nomination of candidates for
municipal offices and in appointments
to office. The remarks of Messrs
Welsh and Rogers at Tuesdays meet
ing were grandly made. Judge Koh
ler. with characteristic frankness, told
some wholesome truths in plain words
II would really seem from the past
and present deliverances of representa-
tive men of all political affiliations in
our midst, that the Commissioner law
under which we are now governed
and of which our citizens are loudly
and justly complaining, should he abol
ished, and a common sense municipal
form of government put in its place
as quickly as possible.
The cry is general throughout tn,
city--give us a change. The expressed
will of the people for change laid be
fore General Assembly at Columbus
will do the business. Our worthy Sen
ator, George w, Sieber, will undoubt
edly be the one to take charge of th,
business whenever Akron's citizen,
ask him to.

REVIVAL Clones.
Grand Results Attend the Meth
odist Meetings.

During the past few weeks the
public have followed with consider
able interest the revival services at
the Central M. E. church. The clos
ing service of the series was held
Friday evening and was in the form
of general rally. Evangelist Smith
spoke on the subject of Gideon and
his faithful army of three hundred
and of the splendid work he accom-
plished with them.
At the close of his talk he sought
to enlist his audience in faithful
future work and called to his aid the
following representative persons;
Rev. j. w. Somerville, representing
Gideon or the church; Frank E.
Baker, the Sunday school; O. E.
Barnard, the Epworth League; DIR.
D. W.eDetwiler, the Brotherhood of
st. Paul; VIM. Crosson, the class
meeting; Maj. J. w. McMullin, the
official board; Mrs. E. D. Brewer,
the Ladies' Aid Society; Mrs. G. E.
Barnard, 1.-THE missionary societies and
Mrs. DR.. Detwiler, the Junior Ep-
worth League. The audience was
divided into sections and passed in
review at the altar, shaking hands
with the above parties, thus signify
ing faithful duty in the future.
During this feature the chorus
choir sang appropriate selections and
afteri all were again seated testi-
monies were in order. These were
prompt, earnest and joyful and SEEM
ed to be suited to each individual
case.
The services.as a whole have been
grand success and over two hun
dred souls have been brought to
Christ. u More than fifty have thus
far been added to the church either
by letter or on probation and large
additions are being made to the var
ious church societies.
A peculiar feature of the meetings
has shown itself in the number OF
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS who have been
converted, railroad men, commercial
travellers and residents of near by
towns. & All of these will no doubt &c
out to bless others in their lives and
do their part in lettering the world
at large.
Mention has been made before in
these columns of the faithful and
sincere work of Evangelist Smith
He goes to Grand Junction for q
series of meetings and is engaged fol
almostl continuous work until next
May. While here3 in Oskaloosa he
made scores of friends in both pri
vate and public life and many will
rejoice in his future success in his
chosen work among the people.

Iron River Wis, Oct. 28.-Beech-

ter's rescue. was the next victim.
He was shot through the body and is
now lying at deaths door. Israelson
then turned upon his sister-in-Iaw,
putting bullet through her heart,
and then rushed to the BARNARD,
where he shot a cow. This done, the
frenzied man went back to the house,
in which his mother-in-law was i'll in
bed. He did not attempt to shoot
her, but prepared to end her career
in a more terrible manner. The
house was set on fire by the lunatic,
but by the time the flames started a
party of men on the road saw the
fire. AS they approached the house
they saw lsratlson put the gun to his
mouth and blow his head off. The
house was entered and upon the floor
were the victims of the maniac. The
dead and wounded were quickly re-
moved, as was also the sick woman.
The house was DESTROYED.
