Penalty Heavy For Auto Theft
In nhin

Ohio is one of IL states in which
the penalty for automobile stealing
is greater than that for horse steal
ing, a review of the motor vehicle
laws Of the As states in the union
shows. In Is states and the Dlstrlct
of Colum bia, horse stealing is still
a more serious crime than automo-
bile stealing. Eighteen other states
legally hold horse stealing and au-
tomobile thievery to be of the same
level. Penalty in Ohio for automo-
bile stealing is one to 20 years III
the penitentiary for the first Oh
tense and five to 80 years imprlson-
ment for each subsequent oHense.
Ohio laws also provide the same
penalty for knowingly buying a
stolen car and a workhouse or eoun-
ty iail sentence of from three to SIX
months for unlawfully tamperlng
or removing any part of the motor
vehicle of another.
States where horse stealing IS
still regarded as a more serious
crime are: Arkansas, Delaware, DIS
trict of Columbia, Florida, Georgia,
Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mich
igan. Montana, New Hampshire,
North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsyl-
vania, South Carolina, Utah, YER
mont, Virginia and Washington
Those where penalties are identcal
are Alabama, Arizona, California,
Colorado, Idaho, Maine, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Nebraska, New YORK,
Oregon, South Dakota, Tennessee
Texas, West Virginia, Wisconsin
and Wyoming. In Connecticut, Iowa,
Kansas, Louisiana. Minnesota, Mis-
souri,, Nevada, New Jersey, New
Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio and
Rhode Island the penalty for auto
stealing is greater than that FOR
horse theft.

Renrock

Rev. M. r. Yoho, whom the an
nual conference decreed to make
the short step over from the Belle
Valley circuit to the work at Rem
rock, is now here to lead the flock
for the ensuing year. He comes
with splendid recommendations
from our good helpful sister, the
Hoskinsville church. The short dis
tance made it a very economic
move, and the reverend gentleman
who is quite genius, and me-
chanic, did much Of his moving
with trailer which he designed and
built himself to meet his special
needs. But everyone here will not
Just be satisfied however, it will
not be the fault of Brother Yoho
(this is plain talk folks, but it is
true). 1t is for the reason that
there are always some who, when a
change of pastors is to be made,
want to experience the novelty, or
whatever you may call it, Of looking
into the face, and hearing the voice
Of someone they have never seen or
heard before. OF course this eXper-
ience is only temporary, and soon
over with. Such people are always
ready for a change, no difference
how soon it comes 1t is our guess
that Brother Yoho will soon win
over all such, and be as much in ia
yor here as he was with the good
people at Hoskinsville. -. Visitors,
we're somewhat reticent, (maybe
we're just queer) about mentioning
visitors, especially those who can
reach us with less than gallon of
gasoline Somehow to us it sounds
a little self exalting to say much
about our visitors, and yet to be
courteous, and in justice to them,
we can not we'll do otherwise. And,
then you know, we all like to see
our names in the paper. But some
it seems, just feed and fatten on
publicity. But when people from
lang way off sacrifice time and mon
ey to make a long trip, even across
serving Of our attention and consid-
GRAFTON. We think much newspaper
space is wasted by too much ''over
the line fence" visits. Another
thing, while on the ect,-these
family reunions, they are a good
thing, but publishing all the names
of those present takes UP lot of
space; but as We said, we all like to
see our names in the list. Again we
would make the exception of those
coming a long distance Nuf sed.

Let's Be Mt. "Airyans"

On Friday of this week little
band of M. e M. redskins goes down
into Washington county to invade
the domain of powerful Marietta
high schools pigskin toters. I'm
daunted and unafraid, the "Big
Reds are going to tackle large,
more experienced eleven and it is
quite natural that one would think
dear old M. & NJ will be annihilat-
ed But,-fans and "fanncttes,' Mt.
Airy is not a place used to subjuga-
ton without a spirited contest, and
you can be sure of seeing what
promises to be real fight. Further
more, this writer fails to see why
we should concede anything to our
Carneran opponents.
1t is necessary for an inexperienc-
ed team to have support of the
highest sort. So, what do you say,
Mt. "Airyans," let's be Mt. "Airy-
ans and go down there to Marietta
Friday evening and be prepared to
yell our lungs out just as if we
were once more imbedded firmly in
that so-called school spirit. Pick up
a handy calendar, take out your
pencil, and place around the numer-
al IA of the month of September a
heavy line and keep all engage
ments from conflicting with attend
ing that game. There is no reason
why a huge crowd should not jour
ney to Marietta for that game.
It's in the air, it's everywhere,
bands will be playing, footballs
plunking, soaring high and far into
the ozone. Get into the spirit of the
game. It's fall and with fall comes

the like, and prove to those eleven

the state have been received by the
Ohio Safety Service Commission
from various industrial concerns,
civic groups and other organizations
interested in safety which have been
enlisted in the statewide safety
movement inaugurated by the COM
mission Among the suggestions
are compulsory testing of the
mechanism and tires every 80 days,
enforce speeding laws, enact driv-
ers' law stressing particularly the
responsibility and reliability of driv-
ers, bear down on the intoxicated
driver and scrap all cars carrying a
less than 800 NRA value, the idea
being that no dealer or used car
dealer be allowed to sell cars that
are fit only for the scrap pile.

Statement By Representative
OF The State Tax Commission

The following is furnished us by
John NJ. Hart, Marion township,
who has a position in the research
section of the state tax commissions
The tax commission of Ohio,
through its research section, has
just completed survey of the
budget requirements III Morgan
county for the year of 1895. The
data was furnished by the county
auditor, j. D. Wilson. The revenues
to be collected in 1895 will be the
first to be affected by the ten mill
limitation that was voted at the No
vember election last fall. 1t should
also be kept in mind that the
liquid fuel tax of one cent, which
was levied for school purposes, will
expire December 81, of this year.
In addition to this there is no way
of telling at this date how the mon
ey from the educational equaliza-
ton fund which is provided by the
cigarette tax will be allocated to the
different school districts in the COM
ing year. Therefore, the figures
that will be given in this article are
based on actual existing conditions
and do not anticipate any aid from
the state or any additional voted
levies of the people.
The four types of local govern
mental units, namely, county, town
ship, village and school districts in
Morgan county are faced with a to-
tai deficit of $218,553.61. $50 of
this total deficit or $194,246.76 is
accounted for by the school dis
tricts. The school district facing
the lowest deficit for the coming
