Recently two inspectors were in this county,, here more to feel the public pulse than to.find out the contentions o f the patrons. The men Were in town over night and .were mom inter­ ested when they learned the adminis­ tration was to suffer i f a change was made,. Regardless o f the department’s claims we have been unable to find-a single community that is at all satis­ fied-’ where the new system has been started. c Mrs. E. C.

Wilmington, is said to be enjoying a great building bodm this summer. A ?350,000 court house is being erect­ ed, a $60,000 Catholic church, and fifty new. residences. Just recently new additions have been added to the town and extensive building is the re­ sult. With jail this the Murphy thea­ tre building is.being erected with a seating capacity o f 1,500, The new building is being erected fo r a former citizen, Charles W. Murphy, wealthy capitalist that formerly owned the Chicago National Baseball club who desired' to give his home town a mod­ ern theatre. . « OVER THE ’PHONE. Hie following Clevei/ lines, appeared in a Columbus paper several days ago and were written b y Hal Reid, the playwright, who when stopping at i the Chittenden, while trying to reach soma o f .his old friends over the tele­ phone. Mr. Reid called f o r a number o f former friends but was informed that most o f them were with ns now only in memory: I used the ’phone this morning to-talk to Cedaryille; . . 1 wished to hear from “m y old home town”—you. know a fellow will: I’Ve been away fo r many a year, I did not know just who To call fo r and to tell the truth X Scarce knew what to do. ‘ I remembered Gharles Huffine®, “ Bub” Huffman, and Will B6yd And how we used to play at school . With pleasure unalloyed. * , * , . / ■ \ The time or filing petitions for state, county and district offices in the primaries is nearing, the expiration being on June 3. Already many have filed their declarations which is nec­ essary upder the new law, only five voters being required to sign the pe­ tition. * The interest manifest in the central committee has attracted quite a few candidates over the county. Hie pres­ ent committee seems to be in a tur­ moil due to friction over the manage­ ment and it is Said threats have been made, during the past year to re-or­ ganize the executive committee. The chairman of the executive commit­ tee is said tat have worn out his wel­ come about the state house in Colum bus and a t headquarters and fo r that reason the “ Nothing Doing” sign, has been hung out fo r Greene county. This eallB to mind the appointment o f D . Q. Morrow o f Hillsboro as a member o f the O, S. & S. Of, Home Board. The present committee strongly objected to his appointment and it is said that Chairman Marshall made all sorts o f claims to Governor Willis. Some o f the objections were so redicut&us that the Governor was moved to make investigation. To this end>one o f the Governor's staff visited this county, .made a.personal investi­ gation and found that the charges were groundless and not made in good faith. The Governor immediately named Col* Morrow1 f o r the Home board which Stands, as a rebuke to the chairman o f this committee. From all reports this was not the first time attempt was made to mislead Hie Governor, who had been trapped mice by the misrepresentations o f the “ blue-sky” -operator.' Hie spirit o f the non-partisan judi­ cial election is certainly being ob­ served by the manner in which vari­ ous counties are endorsing Judge H . L. Ferneding fo r re-election to . the Court o f Appeals.' ' The-Judge Xs the Democratic member o f the court, the other two- being Republicans. To make the court as non-partisan as possible the attorneys in the various counties are making this endorsement. Hie. movement is on the "part o f the Republicans as a reward fo r the open support given Tudge Allread' by the Democrats,a fe> years ago when no nomination was made. Judge Fferne- ding is worthy o f re-election. He came from Montgomery county and is an able lawyer and has proven a competent jurist. The’ Board o f Elections has re-or­ ganized under the law, the new mem­ ber taking his ' seat, D. O, Jones. James .Fletcher ,was chosen chief and Frank Bickett, clerk. Mr. J, A , Fin­ ney, who ban been the efficient clerk fo r several years did not desire the position longer due to his candidacy in the primary f o r prosecutor. ** R. P.
