Tippecanoe County Democrats are
greatly puzzled at the action of Steph-
en- Beaver, who yesterday filed his
resignation trustee of jackson
Township with County Auditor George
Baxter, to be presented to the county
commissioners and to take effect Jan.
l, 1913. Beaver was elected to the
office four years ago. Since that cleo
ton the Legislature has extended the
term two years. Beaver takes the
stand that he was elected for but four
years and that he had served long
enough. Beaver is a Democrat, and
the commissioners. who are all Repub-
licans, will name his successor in a few
days.
