Bryan, former state treas­ urer and authority on fish and game, is not a true “water dog”. The animal or fish is about two feet in length has four feet similar to a “water dog” but lacks the fins- and gills of the “dog” species. Supt. George Morcher of the state hatcheries of Ohio, is digging into the books and facts on the Salamander family and expects to be able to iden­ tify the animal. Old timers here in the fishing game for years say htat the thing is com­ monly known as a “hell bender.” —Madison County Press REV. HAGGARD SU m i l FRANKLIN CITIZENS LIFT DEBT BY POPULAR SUBSCRIPTION Franklin ,Warren county, a town of about 3,500 people had all the debt it could incur under the law. Before cer­ tain improvements could he made it was necessary to lift part of the debt. Council could do nothing more. The plan of public subscription was pro­ posed and over $0,000 was raised and applied to the debt, This Is a wonder­ ful accomplishment. Franklin no doubt is the first town in Ohio to attempt such a tiling and the civic interest of the citizens is to be commended. DEATH OF MRS.

These lawyers. are only wishing now that they can , have a say to the-Fifth-Sixth sena­ torial' contest apd thus give L. T. Marshall a '“boost”. The Dayton at­ torneys derided to appeal the case, and the papers were to he filed by Marshall! within.the legal time of 70 days. It menus Marshall was so absorbed in running the politics of tbe county wad abating after the K, K, rsview the ease and ordered the ori­ ginal judgment from the lower court paid. Digging down for a $800 judg­ ment after your attorney went asleep . to the job would naturally cause a it of discussion to legal circles. The Dayton parties have no vote for State Senator in this district, and probably it just as well as the waters are mud­ died enough; The lawyers in Greefie county*are thinking Some,things just now. It is to be taken for.granted that little or nothing will get outside of thtir own organization. Every now and then the Probate Court has an opportunity to ecommend an attorney, It seems that Judge Marshal}, being strong on fam­ ily representation to public affairs, forgot in most instances to mention the names o f some few attorney* in Che county that in, years past have 'weir identified with tho Marshall- Gowdy faction, and brother Roy has profited by tho advantage of A broth­ er for judge. Other attorneys look on he situation and chuckle to them- ielves. * * * The situation among the Attorneys reminds us that while Marshall was out trying 'to land the K, K.
