GRAND JURY IS SORE
Scores Municipal Building Commission for
Badly Kept Room.

6aCiy NepI Room.
In it's report handed to Judge John Day
Smith before final adjournment today the
January grand jury roundly scored the
municipal building commission for the
condition of the grand jury room. In
regard to the room the report reads: l as.
THE room provided for the grand jury
would be disgrace to any county of any
size. It Is too small by half for the &C
commodation Of twenty-five men, is prac-
tically unventilated, and has absolutely nc
conveniences. The danger to ones health
should be valid excuse against serving
on the grand jury" 'a.
Otherwise the report was without SEN
sational features. The condition of the
poor farm is commended Attention is
called to the inadequate fire protection
and the use Of oil lamps at the workhouse
and the installation of an electric PLAN
is recommended. -"

A Live Post.

Editor National Tribune: Buell. Post.
11S, GA r., Marietta, O.. has a number of
comrades who are working hard to see
who can bring in the largest number of
comrades to swell our ranks. and as a
result Is comrades have been added to
our number since Jan. l, and to show
you that the IL number is no hoodoo.
they are keeping up the good work. and
each meeting night SWellS our number.
This unusual increase comes from
dropped and suspended comrades and
recruits. Among the recruits was one
cOmrade 10 years of age, who came six
miles from the country through rain
and sleet to be mustered and returned
home the same night. We consider this
a recOrd-breaker. On Jan. 25 the Post
was served with banquet by the men,
bers of Buell. w. r. c., under the able
management OF their President. Mrs.
Emelie McCollister, which was happy
surprise to many Of the comrades, and
was enjoyed as such occasions can only
be enjoyed by veterans of the civil war.
The banquet was served after the bust
ness of THE Post was concluded: then
was had an hour of social chat, which
we hope will be often repeated by rea-
son of it's influence for good.
The citizens of Washington County
are honoring the civil war veterans with
positions of trust, as-e4sey always have
done, as the County Treasurer, County
Recorder and one County Commissioner
and the three Infirrnary Directors are
all veterans. and at the last meeting it
was learned that there will be a va
cancy in the Office of Superintendent at
the County Infirmary. and that Com
rade J. Fl. Young was an applicant, and
Capt l.. J. Cutler offered a resolution
for the Post to indorse Comrade Young,
which was adopted. and the appoint
ment was given to Comrade Young the
next day.
The Sons Of Veterans are also hon
ored. as the outgoing Probate Judge is
a son of veteran, as we'll as the Dep
uty Auditor and Deputy Probate Judge;
and last, but not least, is our member
of Congress, Hon. Beman G. Dawes,
who is a son Of the late Gen. r. r.
Dawes, late Of the 9Th Wis. and COM

Annual ReuOrt.

To the Officers and Members of Dix
Logan Post, Grand Army of the Re-
public:
The year i'm which it has been my
privilege to stand at your head as your
Commander Is now closed. The record
is made and has become a part Of the
history of the Post, never to be changed.
AS we year by year are stepping rapidly
down the western slope and the final
sunset of our Order is not far away,
and it will be but a few years more un-
til the last of us shall have answered
the last roll call, we are calmly looking
into the future. believing that the rec
ord Of our achievements will live and
speak for the freedom for which the
Stars and Stripes stand long after our
names shall have passed into oblivion,
and the record OF the Grand Army will
live as long as freedom lives.

a farmer near Kokomo. Ind, and
served for six months in Co. H. 147th

AS William S. Elliott did not apply

for the reason that several medical ex-
amfnations failed to show a disability
from the alleged injury. If the claim
ant ever made the statement attributed
to him he probably had this claim in
mind. He is mistaken, however, as
the Bureau cannot grant q pension for
