pull Missouri out of the mud" vas
complete. For weeks the road over
seers of the state have been assem-
bling equipment and outlining the
work so Systematically that every
squad of men was put to work without
confusion.
Two national good roads days are
expected to result from Governor Ma
jor's proclamation this year.
To Call Upon All States.
AS Don as the Missouri executive
can determine the value of the two
days work, he says he intends to call
upon the governors of every state in
the union and ask them to join with
him next year in calling two national
good roads days. If the governors will
act, Major feels that they can exert
so powerful an influence upon con
gress that federal aid for roads can
be obtained.
Everywhere throughout the state the
women have proved as enthusiastic
workers as the men and thousands
served appetizing meals to their men
folks along the route of their labors.

tiers of the American Revolution took
advantage of the occasion to outline

GIynn Takes Like Stand.

Earlier, a similar announcement
was made by Acting Governor Glynn
and was embodied in a telegram to
Governor Fletcher Of Vermont, re-
questing his good offices in effecting
an eXtradition return of Thaw to New
York.
Instructions have been sen to the
immigration officers at S~herbroOke, it
is officially announced at Ottawa, that
when Harry X. Thaw m into their
hands there must be no discrimination
against him.
There is reason to believe that this
means he will not be sent to New
York state, but on rejection will be
returned by the Vermont route, as
would an ordinary person coming in
by the way Thaw did, and subsequent
ly denied domicile in Canada.

PROPERTY-OWNERS LOSE
OUT IN CLAIMS FOR
DAMAGES

]. H. Koch, of Ohio City, F. c.
Keuthan, of St. Marys, and S. w.
Wright, of Delphos, the commission ap,
pointed by the State Board of Public
Works, which recently heard the claim
cases in which land owners along the
St. Marys river in Dublin and Union
townships sought to recover Sl0,0 900
damage from the state for injury to their
lands and crops by high water during
June, 1912, met at st. Marys on the 9th
inst. to render their decision in the cases.
The land owners sought to prove that
the damage was due to negligence of the
state in failing to prevent the overflow
of water at that time from the canal
into the St. Marys river.
The commission found that the state
was in no way responsible for the flood
conditions existing during the periods of
the complaints; that the state exercised
ordinary good care in protecting the
canal banks from overflow, and that the
damage to plaintiff S lands and crops was
the result of general food condition,
existing at that time in the vicinity of
the St. Marys River.

NOW IT'S JUDGE
0. RAUDABAUGH

It is now Probate Judge Orvelle Raud-
abaugh and ex- Judge p. +. Dugan.
Last Monday witnessed another Off
cial change at the courthouse, when
Orvelle Raudabaugh took up the duties
of the Probate Court laid down by Judge
Dugan, who finished his second term
ON that day.
The new Judge is fairly we'll acquaint-
ed with a good portion of the people of
the county through the campaign made
by himself last fall for the Office, though
this was by no means his first campaign
ing, for he has been active in past when
work was needed on the firing line, and
from partisan standpoint he has reaped
what was coming to him.
That he will prove his fitness for the
Office his friends all agree. While par
tisan and 80 degree Democrat, he is
now the servant of all the people of the
county and wishes to be so regarded.
Mr.. Raudabaugh will be found to be ac-
commodating, courteous and painstak
ing with all who may have business in
his Office, and a clean and able adviser
in matters that will naturally come be-
fore him as an official. He will grow in
the estimation of the people of the coun-
ty every day he is in office.
Judge Dugan leaves the Office of Pro-
bate Judge with honor to himself and to
his party. He came out of the Office with
pore friends than he went in with. He
was knocked pretty hard by members of
his own party for various reasons, but he
plugged away in a straight way and won
most of them back. His official conduct
has been above reproach. He served
the people faithfully. He made good.
