FARMER OF PREBLE COUNTY ACQUITTED ON LARCENY CHARGE
CAN OBTAIN TITLE IF HE CARES TO RISK A FORTUNE
EATON, O., Dec' 9. Upon instructions of Judge A- C. Risinger, a jury
In common pleas court Wednesday acquitted L.urton E. Bishop, farmer, of a charge of petit larceny, after trial of the cae." - After testimony in the case was completed, Attorney H. Li Risinger, counpel for 'Bishop, offered a. motion to disroisn the case,, upon grounds that the evidence in no wise substantiated the charge. Judge Risinger sustained 'the motion and directed the jury to return a verdict-of not guilty. The jury drafted its verdict in accordance with the court's instructions without saving the courtroom. Bishop was alleged to have stolen a
hog from Richard White. The defense proved that the hog in question was owned by Bishop and had been eoNT by-him to White,' but after the hog was delivered to "White it developed that a misunderstanding arose over the sale price and later Bishop went to White's home and recovered the animal. Receives $1,800. In a recently-published list of amounts allowed by the county commissioners to officials with which to .pay salaries of deputies and clerks for the year 1921, County Treasurer C. E. Samuels was credited with receiving i$2,768.47, when in fact the amount itisked for by him and granted him was .11,800. The $2,768.47 represented the
amount he is entitled to for deputy and clerk hire, based upon a certain per cent of the fees of his office for the present year, as fixed by law, but he asked for only $1,800 of the amount. Owing to elimination, by law, of fees for much work in the offices of Clerk -of Courts V. O. Rookstool and Sheriff : George Jones, the fees of their offices tare curtailed to such an extent that nrhen allowances were, computed upon Ithe lawful : percentage basis the ta mounts were insufficient to meet the office needs and the county commisisioners, under lawful authority. Increased the amounts to the figure .asked for. - Claim Allowed. Claims aggregating $1,700 have been filed with the county commissioners "by sheep growers of Preble county for sheep killed, by dogs, but there is slighUyin excess of $400 In the fund 'from which to pay the claims, according to the commissioners. The condition exists because of a new law providing for the payment of sheep
claims semi-annually instead of annually, as heretofore, it is said. The claims are paid from funds received from" dog licenses. The commissioners have' under advisement the carrying over of the claims until next June. At the annual payment .of claims last June the funds were' heavily drawn upon. Huffman Endorsed. Lester Huffman, of Lewisburg, has :eceived endorsement of the Republican executive committee of Preble county for 'assistant sergeant-at-arms of the state senate. The committee also has endorsed George S. Kirshner, of Dayton, for assistant clerk of the lioupe. Both men have been similarly rr.dorsed by the Montgomery county committee, it. is said. Solicits Membership. O. T. Aydelotte, of Jackson township, has gone into Montgomery county as a
solicitor in a membership drive being conducted by the farm bureau of that county. Aydelotte was selected by the Ohio Farm Bureau federation as a solicitor to take part in the drive. Gold Stolen. Dr. J. Lee Jtelly reported to the
