PrOtraCted Meeting

/ write this note to announce the

out and be with US. This is not a
formal invitation bat comes from the
depth of my heart. l want you to
come. l want all christians to come
and help in any and every way they
can, and to feel al home in Gods
house and services. l want all peo-

in Christ to come, and if there be
any atheists, agnostics, lnidels or
people Of any other belief or unbe-

men to come-old men, middle aged
and young; l want the women to
come; want the boys and girls to
come.
Some things may be said that you
will not believe, yet it may be true
nevertheless. On second thought
you may come to believe it. Some
things may be said that are not true,
but if SO, the mistake will be of the
head and not of the heart.

the invitation broader, palmer or
more generous. Come to the NEE

DECISION OF BOARD WILL ELECT ! MORE DEMOCRATS
Proposition Will be Contested by Moses Black, Frank
Ellis and f. M. Paul-the Three Republican
Candidates Affected by Same

Last Friday when the canvassing
board met to canvass the returns of
the election of November 3rd, and
had reached Mertilla township they
found that the judges and clerks of
the election of that precinct had
failed to certify to the number of
electors and also had failed to certi-
fly as to the tallcy.
They laid the poll book aside and
sssnt for the county attorney for an
opinion. County Attorney Sullivan
came and called H. l.. Jones to his
assistance and upon looking up the
authorities gave it as his opinion
81 7 the precinct should be laid aside
\ and not counted.
G The rejection of this precinct
Eould change the result ON three
y candidates. Hall would beat Black
for treasurer, Elliott would defeat
Ellis for district clerk and Novinger
would defeat Paul for commissioner
of the third district,
We print the result in another
column of this issue as made by the
canvassers.
We are advised that the three af-
fected candidates, Black, Ellis and
Paul, will contest the matter proba-
bly, in the supreme court A. T.

In the torch pretty regularly in the
West End OF -lue, got real busy
again last night, but as result came
very near being captured.
IAN empty house, the property of
George MCGUIRE, located on Kenton
avenue, was the scene OF the fire.
Shortly after eight O'Clock, resi-
dents of that vicinity saw a light
in the basement OF the unoccupied
residence. Officers Hostetter and
Harper were notified and Immediate
ly visited the place.
When the patrolmen reached the
house, the smoke was pouring from
the cellar windows. They entered
the basement through a door in the
rear and began an investigation.
They could see no fire, however, and
made exit from the cellar and at
tempted to gain entrance to the first
floor.
While the patrolmen were unlock
ing door, detective from Warren,
Ohio, happened on the scene. The
stranger was standing near the cellar
entrance when man wearing a
slouchy black hat and heavy beard
came out Of the cellar and dashed
past him. 1t was undoubtedly the
fire bug, but he had gained too great
"a start and the officers were unable
to overtake him.
Fire allrm No. 26 was turned In
and the West End department was
soon upon the scene. The fre had
gained practically no beadway and
the only damage was caused by
smoke. An Investigation disclosed
that the fire bug had placed a large
bunch Of waste under a beam in the
cellar and then applied the torch.
II Is evident that he was in the act
when the officers arrived and it Ia
thought that he concealed himself
behind the furnace when the officers
entered the cellar.
The police have a fair description
OF the man and will make a great er-
fort to effect his capture.

Are We in Waterbury Are We in Drybury :?

It certainly looks as though We will be known henceforth as Dry bury With a population of 75,O00 people depending on supply of water capable of supplying only S0,- 900 we must not expect to be called any name but "Drybury." Of course the people who don't drink water don't care because they can satisfy their thirst within the beer saloon, but as most of those people are short lived we should pay but little atten- tion to them. We must have water and it must be good if you want nice tasting tea or coffee, and that .bunch" called city fathers should get "wiggle on" and see that we get 1t and get it right away, too. We understand Scoop" O'Brien Is com ing to "Drybury" for the sole pur- pose of cleaning out whole lot oe beer saloons. Well, if''Scoop" un- derstand scooping let the city fathers or the ''city bunch" send him up to the Wigwam reservoir and let him practice scooping out the bottom while there is no water in it. If he does a good job he will make room for at least 5,000,000,000 gallons ex- tra when the rain arrives. In the meantime remember the best place in the city to get nice tasting tea, cof- fee or buttermilk is at
