the matter was carried out.
In the course of the cross examination of
the witness by Mr. Worthington the United

Beavers to the prejudice of other machines
and to the detriment of the government.

at these elections, Mr.. Cullom, ex-Gov-
ernor Richard Yates and William g.
Webster. The Democrats had no can
didate for senator. The voters at the
primaries of both parties were privi-
legged to say by their ballots who
should be their nominees from senator
and congressman down to sheriff. In
the case of the s~enatorship the Re
publican voters decided to retain Mr..
Cullom In the seat which he has occu-
pied 80 long. The legislature Is usu-
ally Republican, and In case the next
body IL of hat complexion the major
ity will be bound morally, If not legal
", to respect the instructions given
at the primaries.
Senator Cullom Is one Of the veter-
ans Of the senate. He was born In
1929 and has been in politics fifty
years, for he was a presidential elector
on the Fillmore ticket In 1855. He en-
tered congress in 1865 and was pro-
NOTED to the senate in 1888, when he
succeeded David Davis, Independent
Democrat.
Senator Cullom's father was a farm
er. The schools Of that time did moi
provide the youth Of young Cullom's
vicinity with advanced educational op
portunities, and when the future sen
ator decided on the law as his profes
sion the question arose how to Obtain
the funds for seeking instruction a,
schools distant from his home. He pre-
vailed upon his father to lend him 9
team Of oxen and a pillow, and with this
primitive outfit began the battle Of
life on his own responsibility and en-
gagged at breaking prairie at 81 PEI
acre. He earned enough in this way to
begin the pursuit Of advanced studio!
and prepare for his public career.

The school enumerators of the

next Tuesday From present indica-
tions it appears that there will be a
very material decrease in the number
of school children in Wayne county.
County Superintendent Jordan has
received reports from two townships
and there is a decrease of twenty
four. In jefferson township, there
was a decrease of nearly per cent
making the report Is pupils below
the report of last year. Trustee Pot
ter thinks that there will be but 500
in this township this year, outside
Richmond, when there were S11 last
year. If the whole county has de-
creased in proportion, the money
drawn from the state for the purpose
of running the schools will be far be-
low the amount now used.
At the meeting of the Board of Edu-
cation Tuesday, the time of the open
ing and closing of the schools of next
year will be set, holidays will be
named and various reports will be
submitted.

Greenfield, Ind, April 27.-In the U.

it Is asked that the commissioners be

The complaint relates that the COM

November of 1898 by the County Com

related to the complaint that the COM

care of the road. The complainant
was notified to remove its tracks and
other properties from the road within
thirty days. The complainant alleges
that the defendants had no right to
revoke this grant except by judicial
action, and alleges that the true rea-
son that the grant was evoked was
not because of any failure on the part
of the complainant to live up to the
contract, but because the complainant
had cut out certain stops on its line
and the patrons it had thus offended
had petitioned that the grant be re-
