Commissioner Summer held another
meeting to abolish Judge B ldwin and
other prominent Republicans Saturday
night. The attendance was not 80 large
as at the former meeting, for there are
quite number whose eyes have been
opened since that time and who see that no
reform is intended but that Mr. Summer
merely wants a little more power, per-
haps as an excuse for draw ing that extra
500 year.
At the meeting the committee hereto
fore appointed reported the following
which the eleven persons pr sent adopt d:
"To the Legislature of the State of
ohio:-we, tha undersigned, being cleo
tors of Stark county, Ohio, do hereby
petition your honor BILE body to abolish
the board Of directors of the Stark county
work house, and that you authorize the
commissioners of said county to assume
the direction, management and control of
said workhouse"
These petitions are to be circulated
wherever Mr.. Summer can get somebody
to carry them.
Mr. Summer has not yet stated when
he will abolish the infrmary board and
has not denied that the trustees of the
Fairmount childr, n IS home are next to be
done away with.

states that he left Dawson City d cember

n distance of 600 miles, with his dog
team. He left Alaska with the intention
of coming home, but on reac ing Seattle,
concluded TO return, with toe of tail
oring aud mems furnishing goods.
Brosius writes that there is still great
activity among the fortlne.seeSers along
the Yukon and Klondike, b t that he
finds the boom much greater in the
States, and advises his friends to refrain
from investl In the mining property.
He says If a piece Of property Is valuable
the sellers will not have to leave Dawson
City to find a purchaser. The properties
offered for sale are mostly wildcat claims,
located at the upper and lower ends of the
gold fields, where there is nothing that
will pay. Some Of these claims are
staked off almost to the top of the
mountains. More money is being spent
in efforts to reach the gold fields than

What May Become of Bills in

WHERE CANTON is AFFECTED.

II presenta Nv Snyder Now Has Some
iions Bun Passing % her Bilis
Til Are az Issue.
Representative j. b. Snyder returned
to Columbus today afte' spending Sun
day in this vicinity. Mr.. Snyder told u
News Democrat man this morning that
tn bill redistrict the state had CON
siderable opposition and It vas an even
thing whether 1t wo Id pass.
"What about the bill to abolish spring
elcc ionsP" was asked
"That bill has many supporters, snid
Mr. Snyder, "but it will have hard
time pa sing. 1t is urged that it would
cut uown expenses. 1t will make more
expense In the fall, so that 1t will be
about an even thing in the end Besides
that no matter whom in affected, we see
scheme to keep Mayor McKisson, of
Cleveland, in Office q while longer, and we
will not support any such measure. While
there ar some things that recommend
the proposition, there are some others
that do not.
"What of the bill to appoint two MEM
bers of the board Of elections outside Of
the county seat9"
"There has been very little doubt about
that passing until very recently. At the
last minute there have BEEN some strenu-
Gus and plausible objec ions made. It Is
represented to me that Canton p US more
than three -fourths Of the expense of the
board, in fuct some have figured 1t that
Canton pays SO. 60 of every 81 that the
board receives. If this Is true, the county
outside could not in fairness ask for more
than one representative on the board. I
am not prepared to say now what will
likely come Of the bill, but it hasn't as
good chance to pass now as 1t had when
first introduced"
