Is Samuel P. Henry, Ex-Trustee \of Union Township, and He Was Not a Democrat Either.

ANOTHER REPUBLICAN GONE WRONG. A low rumbling noise was heard yesterday morning as dame rumor hustled around whispering that something was going to drop and the anxious populace was rewarded for their watching about uoon by seeing that something bloom forth in the shape of a full fledged volcano in the announcement that Frank Henry, the retiring trustSeof Union township was short ou his accounts to the startling amount of $3,600. In his final settlement with the county commissioners the statement he filed showed a balance of $11,881.93 of township funds on hand. He was not required by that business-like body to turn in or account for these funds, and not until bis successor, D. W. Hartman, took charge of the office sometime ago was this shortage of $3,600 discovered. Hoping that he could borrow money to repay this shortage no public announcement was made of the facta at the time and not until all efforts in this direction had been exhausted was the matter given to the public. Mr. Henry was seen by a REVIEW man yesterday afternoon. He stated that his misfortune could principally be laid at the door of Joseph Grubb, another truly good republican, that Grubb had weaved his way into his confidence and borrowed public money to the amount of $1,600, and only held his checks to show for this. Mr. Grubb, a republican officer homing a government position at Terre Haute at the present time, refuses to settle this amount, and is wholly irresponsible for it Mr. Henry also claims to have made other numerous loans of township monies to different paities among tMftn being James and Ed. Coleman to• the amount of $200 or $300 each. Ed. Colewas seen in regard to this statement and denied emphatically of having ever borrowed one cent of ft, Henry claims to also have used about $500 of the money with which to liquidate his private debts around town. Taking all of this into consideration there remains yet about $1,000 for which Mr. Henry is at total IOBS to give account. Being a man without means, the loss falls to bis bondsmen, who are James Coleman, C. N. Vancleave, James Scott, D. S. Enoch and Joseph Grubb. The bond calls for $11,000. They will have all of it to pay and they are gentlemen who can ill afford to lose it. Mr. Henry served four years in the office, the limit of the law. He was a candidate this spring before the republican nominating convention for the office of sheriff but was defeated.

Struggle For Supremacy

With the breeders of live stock, and Manufacturers of agricultural machinery, and contests for prizes in all that pertains to agricultural pursuits, will be the event of the season. The Indiana State Fair has a national reputation, and is noted for its leading features, which will be amply sustained in the forth coming exhibition, commencing September 22, as set forth in the premium list, furnished on application to the secretary at Indianapolis.

Antl still another republican trustee gone wrong. It was rumored on the streets last evening that ex-Trustee Henry was not the only republican township official whose books fail to balance, but that a trustee in a neighboring township who went out of office on the first Monday of August had turned up defaulter. Other unpleasant rumors regarding speculations while in office relating to the salaries of teachers employed by him are in the air A few days will probably develop the trath OJ falsity of these rumors.
