It is assured that efforts will be made to operate the mines and the men, determined as they seem to be, may oppose any efforts along that line.

' made its initial appearance here last i night, when copies were distributed down town. A. A. Kist, of Portland, is president; Harry Fritzinger, secretary and Hugh Hite, treasurer, with D. H. Clymer, of Logansport, as editor. Fritzinger is republican county chairman and Hite is treas-urer-elect and as these facts would indicate, the paper is to be republican in politics. It is a four page semi-weekly to be printed at Portland for the present, and issued Wednesdays and Saturdays, according to announcement in the editorial coli unins. Evidently they plan to go I right after things and people with a I motto “Treat 'em rough" and steem to cling to the old idea that sticking to facts is a matter of minor consideration in publishing a newspaper. FAMILY HEAVILY STRICKEN Jaeob Fuchs, of Kansas, who has 1 been visiting here during the last three weeks returned home last night | in response to a telegram that his I oldest son. William, had died. Mr. Fuchs did not know whether death I was due to an accidental injury or sickness, as his last letter from home reported everyone in good health. Two years ago the young man's wife and two children were accidently killed in a railroad accident, leaving only himself and one child. With the death of the father, a daughter Gladys, aged seven, is the only surviving member of her family.— Berne Witness. IN AUTO ACCIDENT.
