Beginning at 2:30 p. m. on Jan. 2d and continuing through the 3d and 4th, the county assessors of Indiana will hold their annual meeting in Room 12, Capitol building, Indianapolis. The state tax board urges the attendance of all county assessors, and John Q. Lewis, of Jasper county, will attend. Township assessors are also invited to attend the meeting Any citizen is also at liberty to attend. Jacob Hazen, of Goodland, purchased the Steele restaurant business here last Saturday and immediately took possession of the same. -Mr. Hazen is well known to most of our citizens, having formerly resided here, and therefore, needs no introduction to us. He starts out with a fine new stock of goods and proposes to keep it up in first class order. He will move his family and household effects here as soon as he can secure a house. —Kentland Democrat. Chief Fish Commissioner George W. Miles has divided the state into two districts; the northern, which includes this city, and the southern, and has named these deputies: Frank Randall, Monticello; P. M. Kent, Brookston; Homer Johnson, Columbia City; William Fleming, Ft. Wayne, and J. Fred Brady, LaGrange. The other deputies under command of Captain Fleming are James R. Donley, Kouts; John E. Rigney, Goshen; Bert Hisey, Rochester; Harry Walker, Laporte; James Stoneburner, Warsaw; Christ Moll, Otterbein; John B. Williams, Bainbridge; William Elston, Angola; Jacob J. Bravy, Anderson; A. W. Henderson, Noblesville, and Charles Peek, Wawasee. W. H. Heiny has resigned as treasurer of Monticello after serving one year under the new city government. He found the duties so confining as tp Interfere with his insurance business, which is extensive. He will be succeeded by W. F. Brucker. It is understood that the treasurer of Monticello gets $450 a year. This is 50 per cent more than the treasurer of Rensselaer gets and the work here is probably twice what it is in Monticello, caused by the fact that Rensselaer has, and Monticello has not, municipal ownership of the lighting plant. The salary in Rensselaer is too small and every man who has ever bad the office has quit with the belief that the work is worth double the salary.
