CLEVELAND MEN DRUNK;
PAY S. FINES

H. E. Levere, J. B. Herbert and J.
R. Herbert, all of Cleveland, together
with the driver of their machine, L.
Bammerlin, also of the sixth city,
were arrested by the sheriff and his
deputy last Thursday night, charged
with drunkenness and the first three
fined $5 and costs amounting in all to
$10.28 apiece.
The party of four were on their
way south from Cleveland. Arriving
this side of Brunswick the car in
which they were riding became balky
and Levere and the Herbert brothers
proceeded to cut up while the driver
Bammerlin attempted to fix his ma
chine. The three were apparently in a
drunken semi-stupor for they rolled
around the ground, yelling and shout
ing.
The sheriff was notified, but found
that Deputy Marshal Hange had al
ready started for the scene. The
four men were arrested and brought
to Medina, where they were charged
with drunkenness and arranged before
Justice of the Peace Ainsworth.
In court it developed that BANNER
lin, the driver of the machine, was not
under the influence Of liquor and he
was released. The other three men
plead guilty to the charge and were
fined SIS and costs, as stated above.

TEST GAS CASE GOES
UP TO HIGHER COURT

The Ohio supreme court will pass
upon the power of municipal coun-
clls to increase the price of gas be-
fore the expiration of price con-
tracts which gas companies may have
with municipalities.
The case originated in Findlay
where the council passed an ordi-
nance increasing the price of gas for
the Logan Natural Gas and Fuel Co.,
while the contract had several years
yet to run at the lower rate. Judge
Duncan in the Hancock county COM
mon pleas court held the ordinance
illegal and declared councils could
not increase the price before the expi-
ration of the price contract. The third
district circuit court reversed Judge
Duncan's decision by a two to one
vote. The Ohio supreme court last
week agreed to review the case and
pass upon the issues.
Medina is interested in this case be-
cause Of the fact that the village
council last winter passed an ordi-
nance which granted the Medina Gas
& Fuel Co. an increase Of ten cents
thousand while the village contract
for rs cent gas did not expire until
1921. Many of our neighboring vii
lagos are affected in similar way.
If the supreme court should hold
that municipal councils have no power
to increase the price of gas while a
lower price contract is in effect, the
present rate of 35 cents in Medina
would be null and void and the rs cent
rate would become the legal rate.
Their is not much objection in Medina
to the IS cent rate but a decision by
the supreme court adverse to the gas
companies might create complications.

The strong arm of coincidence firmly
propels the play along on the way il

are hurried along to another coinci-
