Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 311, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 7 January 1918 — Page 4 Advertisements Column 3 [ADVERTISEMENT]

The fire company had a slippery run to the home of J. K. Smith in the east part of town at the noon hour today. A curtain near the stove had caught on fire. Charles Welch our faithful county commissioner from Carpenter township made the trip here today by automobile. Mr. Marble had not arrived when we went to press. Mr. and Mrs. Walter C. Maines and four children of Three Forks, Montana are here for a visit with relatives. t Mrs. Maines is a granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. E. Holister. » Tonight the city council will meet as provided by law and the new city officers will assume their respective offices. This is true of all Indiana cities. The officers of this .city* as selected at the last election were: Mayor, Charles G. Spitler; clerk, Charles Morlan; treasurer, Charles M. Sands; councilmen-at-large, Conrad Kellner and Rex Warier; first ward, Ray Wood; second ward, Frank Tobias; third ward, Frederick Waymire. „ The mayor will appoint the councilmen to the several committees and it is probable that no change will be made in the present appointive officers, except, that the office of marshal may be discontinued.
