Curfew Bill Vetoed.

ST. Louis, Nov 16-Mayor Zeigen-
helm has vetoed the curfew bill, passed
by the City Council recently, at the in
stigation of Colonel Hoagland, well
known all over the country as the
friend Of the street waits.
The Mayor says in his veto message:
This bill partakes of the character of
sumptuary legislation, which has been
generally distasteful for centuries and
to which, in common with thousands
of good citizens, am on principle op-
posed. 1t is a step backward to the
middle ages, and is opposed to the
spirit and policy of our free institu-
tions in that 1t attempts to abridge the
personal liberties of the citizen"

Parkersburg, w. Va, Nov. 16.-A
gas well of tremendous pressure has
been struck at Sandyville, Jackson
county, by company who were in
search OF oil. The new strike has
caused great excitement, and oil men
are offering big prices for territory, a
farmer receiving an offer of 500 an
acre for his hitherto worthless farm.
There is quite an oil boom In the
vicinity OF Lowell at present. A mum

barger No. 3 will drill in late Thurs

are raised and in position In little
more than four hours. In lowering the
dam a similar process is followed so
far as the boat and hooks are con-
cerned. A slight pull releases the prop
from its position, and the force of the
current sends the wicket fiat to the
river bed. 1t is desired to have about
seventy of these dams constructed
along the Ohio at such distances apart
as the engineers may decide is neces-
sary to insure steady stage of six
feet. This can be accomplished, it is
claimed, with an expenditure of about
s1OO, $1,000.
In speaking of the work of the Ohio
Valley Improvement Association, Sec
retary E. P. Wilson said yesterday.
1T should be thoroughly under
stood that the association is working
for che interests of the people of the
Ohio Valley, and not for any transpor-
tation interests. Assure the business
interests a permanent boating stage in
the Ohio the year round, and the
river banks will be lined with great
manufacturing and other industries
Coal can be brought down the river at
a trifling cost, and the industries can
ship their products at rates that are
now only a dream. The completion of
this improvement of the Ohio will in
troduce an era of prosperity in the
States that border the stream such as
show to the general citizenship the
real Importance Of the Ohio and the
necessity for it's improvement that the
educational campaign has been begun"
The association was wise in it's Sc
lection of the Queen City to carry Col
onel Vance's party. The boat is an
Innovation on western waters. Her
cabin rivals those of eastern steamers
in elegance, and in finish is patterned
after them. The meals furnished the
parties were revelation. They were
served in courses and as promptly as
at a hotel. President James A. Hen
derson and Superintendent J. F. Eli
son assisted the boats officers in MAX
ing every moment on board the boat

while away the hours in a social way

Will Value Higher and Rate Lower.

Columbus, Nov. 16.-The decennial
appraisement led to lively discussion
OF the best methods to proceed with
the next decennial appraisement in
realty. A committee reported the fol-
lowing resolutions on how to get the
highest amount OF taxation and at the
same time at the lowest possible rate
OF taxation, which resolution was
unanimously adopted:
Whereas, The appraisement Of real
estate in the state of Ohio has been
made in the past decennial periods
upon certain percentage OF it's true
value In money, contrary to law, vary
ing in the respective counties, and
whereas, this practice has brought
about inequality and injustice in tax
alton, causing an increased rate of
taxation, thereby leading to the con-
cealment Of personal property and er-
roneous appraisement of the same and
discouraging investment from the
other states; and
Whereas, We are about to enter in
to an appraisement of the real estate
property of the counties, and desiring
to have the same done upon some
equitable basis, as to the true value
in money; and
Whereas, We appreciate the honest
and successful efforts of our present
auditor of state, w. d. GuilDert in
the management OF the state finances
believing that instruction from him
will be of great value.
Resolved, That the Auditors asso-
citation request of him to give definite
instruction as to the method of arriv-
Ing at the true value in money of all
real property throughout the state,
that uniformity in valuation ..xed By
said decennial appraisement may pre-
vail"
1t was urged by the committee that
the kernel of the entire resolution and
in fact OF the deliberations of the
gathering is to work out the necessary
reform in the matter of taxation
whereby increased taxes may be Sc
cured at still lower rate than at pres
ent, and each and every citizen may
bear his due proportion and true
share.

The constitution of Ohio, adopted in
1902, provided that the judges of the
supreme court were to be not less than
three in number, and might,a at the dis
cretion Of the legislature, be four.
The judges were chosen by the joint
ballot Of both houses of the general as
sembly, and were to hold Office for the
term Of seven years, or 80 long as
they were we'll behaved" Until 1897
there were but three judges, but in
that year the legislature chose a
fourth, but in 1oI0 the fourth was
omitted. Later the fourth judge was
resumed and continued until the adop-
tion OF the present constitution in
1881, when the number was increased
to fys, in 1892 the number of judges
was increased to six by the legislature
and at that number the cour.. stands at
Present.-Ohio State Journal.

Ingathering Day has grown to be a
great institution to which town and
county each year gladly shows it's
loyal support.
We have said a time or two that we
thought it would be good idea to
serve dinner and supper down town
where the business men might easily
and conveniently drop in, satisfy their
hunger and lend substantial aid to the
Home.
Would it not be good idea to have
a dinner down town some day this
winter-say in the Odd Fellows build
ing on Putnam street. We believe that
sevnty-five percent Of the business
folk would gladly take their dinner or
supper at such place.
