ON
LOCAL HISTORY
By
Sfanbery Alderman

The general assembly met at Chill
licothe on November 26, 1901, anC
st. Clair made his usual address tc
them.
He mentioned the plentiful har-
vest they had made, the generally
quiet state of the territory, the con
tinued good terms on which they
had lived with the Indians; then he
in Europe and said, g.. Gould the
thousandth part of the atrocities
that have been committed in, and
the miseries that have been brought
upon unhappy France, been present
ed to the people beforehand, they
would have turned with horror, and
exclaimed with one voice, are thy
servants dogs, that they should do
this thing?" Inasmuch as nearly
everyone had prospered ST. Clair
suggested the establishment of a
day Of Thanksgiving, the first re-
corded, SO far as I am able to find
out. He said, I'll submit. ..wheth-
er it would not be proper....by law.
to set apart day....for public and
solemn acknowledgement to God,
for the numberless benefits we have
received"
Many Quakers were coming into
the territory and he thought it
proper to allow them full religious
tolerance. On this he said. MANY
of the people,. called Quakers....
have become inhabitants. land more
may be expected" a.. (their) char
acter for industry, sobriety, and
good morals....is known. (and) rem
ders them a valuable acquisition.
(their) religious principles forbid
them to take arms nevertheless
they should render something to
the community in exchange. they
might pay small sum of money for
exemrtion.... / recommend it be
left optional with themselves. Even
at that early date money to operate
the government was subject for
discussion. st. Clair said to them,
I'm the treasury there is nothing
In fact the statement of the audi
tor showed a deficit of $5,419).
Revenues have come. from a high
tax...on uncultivated land. "(this)
is greatly complained off,. though
the lands are the property of non
residents....t 0ands) are hour
ly going into the hands of those
who will settle on them. (then) the
tax will be burden too heavy to

Meigs

Mrs. Carrie Ray accompanied
Miss Gladys Brothers Of Rural Dale
to North Industry, for visit with
the latter's sister, Mrs. Zella Laut-
zenheizer, and family, in time for
last weeks issue, had we known,
coming back in time for this weeks
issue What we would like to know
is whether she got out and ran the
live stock. If she didn't she must
have felt she was on her honey
moon.
A Good Suggestion
We are awaiting with interest the
decision of the fair board regarding
parking place for our crippled
and invalid folks-but not near so
much as they and their relatives
and friends Let us make the fair
better by making it a glad day for
them and their relatives and friends.
We Stand Corrected
In writing copy of the central
committee as published in last
weeks Democrat, we said McElfresh
and McElfresh tied in Marion,
where we should have said McEl-
fresh and Beatty. At the meeting
ol the county board Saturday, a
coin was tipped which landed with
the picture of Jos. X. McElfresh on
the. top side. The boapi will meet
again Thursday, Sept. l, to send
out notices to judges and clerks for
the year ending Sept. 1, 1889. To
the central committee let us beg of
you-don't send in names of folks
to fill these important places who
are not competent. Forget you
have any friends in making your Sc
lection, which leads us to tell you
we have member of the county
board in the person of Myers Van
Fossen, who is a wizard when it
comes to tabulating.
We like everybody some - but
some more than some, and some
much more than some, among the
latter is our good friend Jane Nc
Gregor, who through many years
has been like mother-sister-aunt
to us, and not only to us but to
countless others. We feel as We
write this we will take vacation
and go up tomorrow and see her.
Perhaps we will want to add grand
mother when we come back. While
we think of it, let us tell you Jane
and her neighbor Ida Anderson are
handicapped from the fact that they
can't walk back and forth as in yon-
der years. OF the latter we can use
the same spelling in expressing our
appreciation. Itsn't it funny how
our pencil wanders around between
the lines? While we have written
obituaries and eulogies through
many years, 1t gives US much more
pleasure to hold our pencil betwixt
finger and thumb, as it meanders
over the page as above.

/ On organization of the session
Tiffin was chosen speaker again
and the opponents of st. Clair were
stronger than before.
AS has been noted, ST. Clair was
wanting to establish a university
SO we find that on Thursday, Dec
1, 1901, committee was appointed
to prepare and bring in a bill to es-
tablish a university in the town of
Athens. This was the initial step
of the founding of Ohio University.
Twenty-six bills were passed and
approved at this session and among
then, we find one approved on jan
uary l, 1902, to remove the seat
of government and fix the same at
Cincinnati"
The old question of organization
OF counties was up again and the
session finally passed bill DE
claring the assent of the territory
northwest of the river Ohio, to an
alteration in the ordinance for the
government thereof" They also is
sued certain instructions to Paul
Fearing, who was the delegate in
congress, to have declaratory act
passed by congress so, ono doubt
may remain" This bill wanted to
change the boundaries of the terri
tory and was fought bitterly, as you
may see from the title of the petit
tion which was "a conspiracy of
the representatives Of the upper
and lower parts of the territory to
ruin the middle part
Mr.. Worthington had been the
leader in this matter and his antag-
onism to ST. Clair has been noted.
In a letter to Fearing, st. Clair
said, "....It is easy amongst.
uninformed multitude. .,as is the
bulk CT our population. obtain
subscriptions to any question. petit
tion ..." "The taking upon our
selves....at this early period. of an
independent government. ..can pro-
duce nothing but misfortune =
'Where is the informa ton. for
the formation Of a constitution for
so extended country. ,inhab
by people whose manners and hab-
it's are so different? And where are
the means to support it?" "Our
people are so poor...there is scarce
ly habitation... be seen better
than Indian wigwams."
The census was taken and it was
reported there was a total of 45,O28|
whites and 337 others, not In
dians.
In January Of 1902, St. Clair
wrote "....should congress authorize
this territory to become a state at
this time. this country....is devoted
to misery and ruin"
The opponents of st. Clair were
not good losers and tried to have
charges preferred against him dur
ing the session. They held a meet
ing and wanted to burn the gov
ernor in effigy, but some of the
cooler heads prevented this. A
Of them got a little too
much liquor aboard and forced an

Dear Sir:
Saturday, January %, 1888. at

apology is in order.
II has been my understanding that
the manuscript for such broadcasts
are read very carefully in order to
avoid such occuranees as the broad

Fo the Editor Of the Forum:
What is the difference between
thinning II am as good as you,'' or
TO think you are as good as IT,
Perhaps you will say that III the
latter attitude we deflate our ego.
~ many ways we do not think as we
use to think,
We used to think that the coal

Y used to be legal for boss to
fire q worker for any reason OF none.
Il used TO be legal to employ chill

It used to be legal to own and

Many practices that are now
screened by legal precedents will
be illegal a decade hence
But why look so far into the fu--
