The Visit Of The Commissioners.

Messrs George a jerks of Brookville,
Christopher Heydrick Of Franklin, Norman
Hall of Sharon and W. H. Rose Of John
stown. four of the members of the Com
mission appointed By Gov. Pattison to Sc
lect site for the state institution for the
feeble minded, arrived in Butler from Ze-
lienople last Tuesday evening.
Wednesday morning they viewed the
sights of 500 acres each offered in Butler
and yicinity-the Duffy site on the west
side of town and the Portman site in Sum
nit twp.-and left town on a special at 1
pm. for Euclid where a site has been
plotted of the Sutton, Graham, McMichael
and other farms
The Sullivan Mcclure site north Of But
Ter was not visited because the heirs
could not agree upon a price. nor the Nc
QUESTION, ct al, south Of town because it
was partly covered by oil and gas leases.
The Duffy site west of town, which in
cludes the old Beatty or Groutt and some
other farms. was visited twice by the Com
mission, and the only objection they men
toned regarding it was the price asked,
which averages $l60 an acre.
The Portman site east Of town includes
the PUrtmam, McJunkin and 0esterling
farms, and IS a very handsome one The
prices asked average $125 an acre.
The site at Euclid includes the famous
spring on the MeMichael property, and the
price asked is $3S an acre.
Sites have also been offered the Commits
sion at both Saxonburs and Zelienople
The Commissioners are careful, pains
taking men; splendid sites are being offer
ell them in a dozen different counties, and
nothing can be said regarding our chances
for securing the prize. That our railroad
facilities are unsurpassed they acknowledge
Ell while here, aud our other great adyan-
tage is natural gas for heating.
