The refusal of County Commissioners Walley and Kinnison to allow the ‘republican bosses of Elkhart county to dictate the successor of Treasurer Holdeman has raised a row in county -politics that is getting - warmer and warmer as the days go by. The election of Mr. Weaver ‘is satisfactory to a large percentage of the party, but the bosses“wanted to manage affairs,

Mr. Hoffman wiil not take charge of the postoffice until next Sunday morning, when Mr, Casey will retire to assume his place behind the counter of Sol Mier's bank. The commission duly signed has arriyed, but the work during the middle of the week is such that & new man can hardly haudle it, and then 1t is muelr more -«convenient to make the change after the weekly reports are all in. Mrs, Hoffman is to be assistant postmaster. o

1t will take more than the sensational statements of a newspaper or the unsupported eyidence of a disgruntled contractor to make us belieye that Ed Kinnison is, or was, in. any way connected with ! crooked work in the Elkhart county bridge contracts. His friends maintain that/ he can prove, and easily. too, that he is the yvictim of circumstances and that he will be able to clear his skirts of any complic~ ity in the deal that is bemng probed by the grand jury. '

- The Elkhart county official scandal took a new turn Monday when Judge Wilson allowed the bondsman of ’l‘re‘a,sureri] Holdeman to withdraw. Holdeman could mot furnish a new bond whereupon the court declared the office vacant and Delos N. Weaver of Elkhart was appointed .to fill out the unexpired term. The commission; ers claimed that County Treasurer W. H. Holdeman’s accounts were $19,~ 000 short. Mr. Holdeman maintains his innocence, but will give no statement of the condition of the treasury.

. The attempt of certain Republicans to discredit E. W, Knepper, jr., by contending that he would not make a satisfactory assistant postmaster shows their animus. Young Knepper would make & good postmaster. He 18 a young man of goed habits and education.. He is attentiye and competent, and with-a few months’ training would make a first ¢lass assistant. We are told that he is not to go into the postoffice, haowever, as the whole arrangment has been declared off, which, to say the least, is a surprising turn of affairs.

- Some one set fire to the unoccupied dwelling near the Catholic church last Thursday morning ‘about 3 o’clock, and it was not long until the structure ‘was a mass of ruins. The building had béen vacated but a few days, and was soon te be repaired by Frank Shock, who had just purchased it of the Col~ lins estate, It would have made a good home for Mr. Shock with a little expense, but some one was mean enough to use the torch. For a while considerable anxiety was felt on account of the chance of the fire spreading, but the flames were kept in check.

J. S. Simon, two miles southeast of town, this morning presented this office with a large bunch of blossoms which he had plucked from a cherry tree on his place.

The South Bend Times reports that Oliver Perry of Union township. St. Joseph county, had nine acres of clover this year. From it he took 25 tons of the best clover 'hay he eyer cut and worth fully $175. He has just finished threshing his clover seed and from the nine acres got 43 bushels, worth at the present price $129, making a total of $304 from the nine acres, or an average of $33 78 per acre. i

It seems that the mean attack upon Dr. E. W. Knepper by the sure thing candidate and his friends was without cause, for it is now given out that Mr. Hoffman got the office with~ out making any concession whatever, and that Dr. Knepper and his son are to be left out 1n the cold. Nevertheless we suppose that the fight upon the docter will be kept up, for this seems to be the policy. .

That wave of confidence must be receding. Some weeks ago sheep were eagerly sought after and a big price was the rule, but recentlv the price has been falling. At the big sheep sale of Baker & Bouse on. Monday the bidding was exceedingly slow and the prices were away below what was expected. Choice sheep sold for less than $4 and some even below $3. Does it mean that the sheep business is already overdone in this locality?

Some people are laboring under the impression that becanse the time for paying taxes in the spring was changed from the third Monday in April to the first of May, the time for paying the fall taxes has also been changed. The people should bear in mind that there is no change in the time for paying the fall installment of taxes. All fall taxes are due the first Monday in November, which this year happens to fall oP the first day of the month. -

The Columbia City Post says that R. C.. Woodruff. a druggist at Hecla. had & narrow escape from poisoning recently by taking a dose of morphine, evidently mistaking it for medicine he was taking.

He has fully recovered from the effect of the drug. : ~ Fire destroyed the public school building at Wolcottville -last Friday night, ' entailing a loss of $BOOO upon the t;xpayers and causing much inconvenience to school patrons.
