TAN COMMISSIONER BUSY.

Tax Commissioner Ward Is as busy
as an old hen with a big brood of
chickens. He is making the first
real assessment of the property Of the
county. 1t is being done slowly but
thoroughly, and when completed
Ohio county will be amazed at the
volume of its taxable wealth. Mr..
Ward is not attempting to assess the
property at an extravigant value, but
is conscientiously discharging his
duty as directed by the State Tax
Commission. So far the land assess
ed has been valued at about fifty per
cent above former assessment val
ues, and live stock at an increase of
one hundred per cent. A steady
stream of taxpayers are coming to
the Commissioner Office to assess
their property.

WELCOME RAINS.

Reports from every section of the
county of good rains Monday are en-
couraging. Fields, and especially
gardens, were suffering for moisture,
and relief came in the nick Of time.
The rain began some time in the
night and continued well into the
morning. 1t was a soaking rain with
out wind, and will mean many thous-
ands of dollars to Ohio county crops
and gardens. The corn crop is late
and uneven and the late planting of
tobacco was dying in the hill. Veg
citation everywhere is revived and
crop prospects are very much improv-
ed. With the exception of the early
potato crop, which was past help,
there is now a good prospect for a
splendid crop in the county.

Bailey's only excuse for desertion is
that he was homesick. The lowest
penalty for desertion in time of war is
ten years at hard labor in federal
penitentiary. The boys say when
their trials are called they are going
to ask for the privilege of going i'm
mediately to France. Hurts mother
arrived in Hartford near dawn Tues
day morning to consult an attorney
in regard to her sons case, but there
is probably little to be done for him
as this is his second desertion. He
deserted from the navy about year
ago.

LITTLE BOY DROWNED.

Walter, the six year old son of Mr..
bud Gray, a farmer living about two
miles below town, was drowned in
Rough river late Tuesday afternoon
The Grays live on the bank of the riv-
er Just above the mouth of Bens Lick
creek. The little boy and a small
girl were playing near the waters
edge when the boy ventured in and
went beyond his debth. The little
girl made an effort to rescue him and
got hold of him, but was unable to
drag him to shore. IL was thirty
minutes before help arrived and the
body recovered. DR.. Ford was called
but his service proved fruitless to
revive life. A remarkable feature
of the incident was that the body of
the boy did not sink, but continued to
float on the surface of the water. 1t
is believed that his clothing chamber
ed sufficient air to keep the body
afioat. The funeral was held We'd
nesday morning and the body was
buried at Central Grove. The par
ents of the child have the sincere
sympathy of the community in their
sorrowful loss.

he took a bichloride tablet thinking
it was a head ache medicine, here
Friday. Bichloride is a slow but
deadly poison, and it was only by the
prompt action of physicians in empty
ng his stomach by an emetic before
the deadly drug had been absorbed
by his system that the mans life was
saved.

FIRST WE MUST REMEMBER

That the machinery of Democracy does not injure government by the people use them. The methods of de- mocracy give the people their chance; it is for them to take it. Every type of tyranny known to the suffering world-autocracy aristocracy, pluto cracy, army rule, mob rule-has oper- ated under the name of democracy. When the lid is off almost anything may happen. It is, therefore, a pri- mary duty Or democracy to keep the lid on, first by obeying the laws it's own machenery makes.
 The essence of democracy is bound up in two principles: Personal free dom and obedience of law. Only through freedom and obedience can we receive justice, and justice is the final cid of all good government. And to secure freedom, obedience and justice is the purpose of public education. Because of these deeds, democracy de- mands respect for the rights of minor- ities. The overriding of opinions and repression of acts of minorities, groups races parties, nationalities, has kept Europe in hot water for nearly two centuries. Discomfort rules among people who have no stake in the gov ernment and enforced uniformity of languages, custome, opinions, makes tyranny of the central governments
