Another Republican Trustee.

Trustee Albert Bouk, of Walker township, has tendered hisiesignation, to take effect Friday, Jane 7, preparatory to his removal to North Dakota, where he has purchased a farm and where his lather now is. Mr. Bonk was a finely qualified man and has made a good trustee. Our only objection to him was that he was so uncompromisingly demcratic. His successor is Fred Karch, also a well qualified man aud a staunch republican. Mr. Karch was in the city today and filed his bond preparatory to taking possession of the offioe Friday morning. The resignation of Trustee Bouk coming during the session of the commissioners, that body elected his su<v tensor. This makes the trustees stand politically as follows: Republicans, 8; Democrats, 5.
