Board Of SUPERVISORS.

At special meeting of the Board of
Supervisors held on Monday, October
23, 1922. All members present, the
|Conicville road case again came up for
consideration and by q secret ballot
resulted in tie vote of 3 to 3. The
Board then went into executive ses-
sion, When another secret ballot re-
suited in vote Of 4 to ?, therefore the
Commissioners report having been re-
jected the petition for this road was
dismissed.
The road in question leading from
Mt jackson to Conicvile in Ashby dis
trict has bee n the subject of bitter
fight, some landowners signing petit
tons for the change Of route while
others are equally anxious for the
route to remain as it now is. The mat.
ter seems to be closed temporarily.

Heretofore. business experience has

nittee in passing upon an applicants
educational qualifications under the
equivalent requirement 'Equival-
ent" IS the equal to a high school
education. Hereafter, this is to be
ascertained only by a test in high
school subjects.
There also has been a Tightening up
on reciprocal bar admissions, so
that attorneys coming into Ohio FROM
other States find IT more difficult to
enter practice here.

STATE RANGERS
LOSE ELECTION
Force Fails to Defeat Colorado
Man Opposed to ConstabuIary.

DENVER. Colo, Dec. exit tbs
State rangers.
After trying this gemi-mflitary force
for two years, Colorado is ready to
return TO the protection Of the town
constable.
The beginning OF the end came
when William E. Sweet was elected
Governor on Nov. :. In his platform
he had denounced the rangers and
prOised to wipe out the organization
II elected.
When the result Of the election was
known Col. Pat NJ. Hammock, head OF
the rangers, announced all rangers
could tender their designations He
gave as the reason that no funds
would be available After he said
however, that those who wished 10
stay for the month Of December and
take a chance" Of getting their
vouchers approved might do so.
Ten Per Cent Take Chance
Up to yesterday 90 per cent Of the
rangers have rendered their resigna-
lions to Colonel Hammock. They were
accepted. The remaining 10 per cent
win take a chance on getting their
pay when Governor Sweet assumes
office.
The most recent criticism against
the rangers grew out of a raid in Den
veg. Under direction of the district
attorneys Office, the rangers found
thirty-three nationally known bun
10" operators. The raid was made
efter funds had been collected from
Denver citizens TO finance the prose-
cution- After the raid it was charged
that money and property connscated

lJed TO compel the rangers to dis
