The feature OF the State Bar Asso-
citation meeting at Put-in-Bay came in
the report of President James o. Troup
Of Bowling Green.
In outlining the future work of the
association, he recommended that it
exercise a strong influence on all i'm
portant legislation. He called atten-
ton to the need of a new state con-
;titution, and recommended an amend
ment abolishing the probate court and
transferring the business of that de-
partment to the common pleas, or re-
ducing its jurisdiction to administra-
ton and guardianship, and requiring
offices to be filled by men having some
knowledge and experience in such
matters. Other things recommended
we're that final record be dispensed
with, except in real estate, unless de-
manded by one of the parties; that
the state require a uniform standard
form of bonds of surety companies.
Touching on domestic corporations, it
should require that whatever is sub
scribed be paid in, and, if otherwise
than in money, there shall be some
means of determining a fair cash
value. He also recommended that
there be an odd instead of even num-
Der of judges in the supreme court,
and that all civil cases originating in
the magistrate court be excluded from
the supreme court.

Cazier closed out his store.

During the year 1919, a man named
Luther Drury came from Canada; with
him was his wife, two children, and a
niece Being a blacksmith of some
note for that time, he conceived the
idea of making iron out of the native
ore which could be mined In great
abundance within easy reach. He built
blomary and forge for the purpose,
but the experiment did not prove very
satisfactory and in the year 1928, he
sold the establishment to James Haz-
lett, of Canton. The blomary was dis
continued, and under charge of John
Laird the forge made very good quail
ity of iron. Mr.. Hazlett sold the forge
to Mr.. Janney in 1926 and in 1910
bought 1t back again together with
Mr. Janney's mill and farm. About
the year 1874, the forge was discon-
tinued; Janney's first grist-mill was
burnt down, and another one built in
the town which served the wants of
the surrounding population for many
years.

There appears to be some slight diff
ference of opinion between local poll
ticians regarding the selection of a
campaign committee for the Demo-
cratic party this fall, Some want the
candidates, both city and county, to
name the campaign committee. The
county candidates object to the city
candidates helping to name the COM
mittee to conduct the county cam
paigns. The result will likely be that
The city candidates will join in nam
Ing a city committee and the county
candidates will name their own county
campaign committee.

Democratic state headquarters will
be opened about August 10. The cam
paign will be confined entirely to state
Issues, and no speakers will be i'm
ported to help out. "There are plenty
of speakers within the party in Ohio
to discuss issues and present the man
to the people. 1t will be 'Pattison VS..
Herriclx,'" says Mr.. CARRIER. The cam
paign will open about September 10.
