The First Relig-

In the Republican of Jan. % h is

ing presented on 1t the first things In

There is one error in regard to the

and is the official paper of the reiig-

1t is on file In the Brllefontaine
public library. The New York Gnde-
pend, mt some time ago said editori-
ally that this claim was as fully es-
tabli he'd as any point in h story.
Pref. Jones probably gets his author
ity from Shaws English and Ameri'

given there is erroneous. A part OF

Upset. Runaway
and Smash Up.

Saturday night as Mr.. Obenour
and wife were driving up Kerr's hill,
at north end Nf Mad River street,
where the boys were coasting he was
warned to take one side of the road,
as the big coasters were coming down
heavily loaded. He said he woul
keep the IN ddle of the road, and the
boys could take the side. When but
a little ways up the hill, the big
coaster came charging down on him,
and the boys to save a collision ran
their sled into the ditch and upset 1t.
The noise of the upset scared the
horse which whirled around and ran
off into the field, upsetting the sleigh
and badly hruising Mrs. Obenour
shoulder. The horse made circuit
with the upturned sleigh, and then
ran down Mad River street. At Oak
Newell's corner it hung the sleigh on
an electric light pole, but continued
it's mad run, being finally captured
on East Sandusky street. The couple
secured another sleigh and drove to
their home two miles this side of
K lshsylvania.

$1,000 Reward.

The people of Woodstock do not
propose to let the murder of their
fellow-citizen, Wi liam E L9ttimer,
go unpunished. Utilise many other
communities, they do not rest con-
tented with the investigation that
has been made but wilt undertake to
ferret out the murderers upon their
own responsibility. To this end a
fund of $1,000 will be raised in the
village and township and the county
commissioners will be asked to raise
their reward to $1,000 This fund, the
parties having the matter in hand
have been assured will be sufficient.
Already ten of the more prom nent
citizens have subscribed 500 each TO
the fund. A delegation of Wood
stock people will appear before the
Commissioners next Monday to sub
NIT the matter to them.-North

Has Seen All Kinds of
Wheels Go Round

James Ackels. one of the compost
tors of the REPUBLICAN Office. on look
ing out the window at the trolley cars,
said they didn't create as much of a
sensation as the first cars on the old
Madriver. railroad did. Mr.. Ackels
was a small boy when that road, 1.-THE
first but one west of the Alleghenies)
was built, and remembers distinctly
seeing an old lady, GRANDMOTHER
Wren, killed by the cars. a few weeks
after they began running. She
wasn't onto the speed of the new de-
parture, and leisurely attempted to
cross in front of the locomotive, and
was run over and killed. Mr.. Ackels
said he was so scared that he went
home, and that night got in bed with
his father and mother and COW
cred up his head. Mr.. Ack-
els father, McC ,rkle Ackels.

that is now giving the traction line
SO much trouble. He afterwards was
"wood gent" for the company, and
for years bought all the wood used
on the locomotives from Gallon to

seen everything that runs on wheels,

automob les and traction cars.

The Fair Board Election.

Last Saturday the annual election
of members of the Fair Board took
place in the Court House. The only
contest was on the member from
Perry township, and that was decided
principally by members living ten to
fifteen miles from there. No effort
was made to conform with the re-
quirems nts IF the law. You walked
up to the judges, handed in your bal
lot, which was put in the box, and
your name was written down. The
judges did not know whether you were
m mber of the Society or net. No
effort was made to find out. No one
seemed to care. The usual crowd
was there, officials. gate keepers,
fair police and employees making up
a good part of 1t. Tine officers select
ed are good men, but why the OIL
cials who conduct the elections should
ignore the law year after year is not
known and not to their credit. Some
one will take the pains to contest
the election some day. and have the
whole thing thrown out. Our conten-
tion is not against the men selected,
but it throws the Board open to the
imputation of being afraid to hold
an election, under the law, (by MEM
bers only and gives credit to the
charge that elections are carried by
non-members rush, in from Bellefon-
taine in combination with fair Off
cials, gate keeps 7, fair police, watch
men and other employees.
AS long as the county is yearly
taxed over $500 (besides contributions
from the Commissionersl each
township should have a voice in Sc
lecting its Own rep -esentative, and
the REPUBLICAN believes that the
elections should be held in the sever
al township and would suggest to our
representatives in the legislature
that the law be amended, IF neededl
to this end.
