ELYRIA, Feb. 4-The trustees meeting
held here Saturday was an adjourned
meeting to discuss good roads and hear
the report Of the commissioners appoint.
ed by the County Commissioners. S. B.
Dudley Of 0berlin, gave the result Of III,
Investigations Of the commissioners VI
to the present time.
They visited counties in the stat
where they have several hundred miles
Of improved roads and found that the
roads were success in every way, and
the people generally were satisfied that
money spent in this way was a good
investment and that the roads were be-
ing kept in repair at much less cost than
would be required for dirt roads. 1t was
their opinion that roads made altogether
Of lime stone were the best, but they
found gravel and others with stone base
and gravel on top which were good
roads. The commissioners had prices
on crushed lime stone delivered at all
points on the Lake Shore road, which
was 78 cents per cubic yard. They had
not received price on gravel yet but
cost would be less than stone. Their
estimate Of the cost of building these
roads was $2500 per mile.
The other members Of this commission,
s. B. Day Of Elyria, and F. D. Warren Of
Wellington, made remarks and answered
such questions as were asked. Judge
Steele, Of 0berlin, came prepared to talk
and he was loaded. His pockets we're
full Of manuscripts, his arms with PAM
phlets and law books from New Jersey.
He was much afraid the people would
think he was not in favor Of good roads
80 he stated on opening his speech that
he was, (he did not say good railroads
and electric lines, but we all thought it
should have been so stated he cited New
Jersey for everything and claimed that
such roads as we were to build here
could not be built for less than four or
five Thousand dollars per mile. He gave
no figures on cost Of making roads In
our county or state. The only fault he
found With the estimate Of the cohmis.

failed to arrive, which was a disappoint-
ment to many. ]. A. Lehman was ad-
vanced on the program hoping that Mr..
Mitchell would yet come, but as he failed
to do so Mr.. Knapp gave recitation
amusing to all who ever came in contact
with the business end of a honey bee.
After solos by Rev. and Mrs. Mcdonnell
q general discussion was entered into
upon topics Of interest to farmers.
The afternoon session Saturday was
partly taken up by election Of officers for
the ensuing year, which resulted as
follows: President, N. A. Knapp; Vice
president, L. A. Johnson; Secretary, c.
A. Ashcraft; Treasurer, A. E. StOrrow.

that marred the program, except that o.

learned that he was detained on accOun

well as this road tax. Another matter
came before the meeting as to when the
commissioners should submit this Ques-
tiOn to vote. Roll was called and
IL voted 1899 and 13 for 1900. Corrected
on account Of misunderstanding the vote
stood 13 for 1899 and IL for 1900.
We can see no reason to delay this vote.
The commissioners are not the first that
have looked this matter up. The press
OF the county have advocated improved
roads for years. Farmers at their meet
ings have discussed the question, and
the present agitation was commenced
six months ago. 1t would seem that
there was time enough to talk this mat
ter over so all the people could vote
intelligently this spring. Judge Steele
from New Jersey was very anxious to
delay the vote until 1900 and then II the
interest had not abated enough, the only
thing to do would be to put it off until
1901,

sion was on grading, and s. B. Day re-
lieved him on this point by offering to
take the contract for this work at the
estimate price. In view Of the fact that
the commission that were appointed q
few years ago, and this present commits
sion made estimates within about two
hundred dollars Of each other and that
we have built some Of these roads in the
county and in no case has the cost gone
beyond these estimates in view Of these
facts Judge Steele's estimates looked
peculiar. N. Huckins Of 0berlin, gave
the result Of his figures as to the amount
Of tax that should be levied to pay the
cost Of the 105 miles Of road. He showed
that tax Of one mill on the valuation
would in seventeen years pay the whole
cost.
F.S. Reefy Of Elyria, gave good talk,
being member Of a committee to look
up the road question. He has been in
many counties in the state where they
have macadamized roads and he ex-
pressed as bis opinion that gravel would
make good top dressing, could the pro-
per kind be obtained, and he thinks il
can be without going outside the county.
Another point was brought out; ia
grade the tax 20 per cent to be assessed
on the abutting property. Now we
think this method unfair, as every one
must admit that the property abuttinQ
the center roads is listed on the tax dup
licate from two to three dollars more
per acre than property two or three
miles farther away. We will admit thai
II this road is completed as now pro
posed, it will increase the value Of pro
perty along the road more than 1t viii
property several miles away and wheI
we have new appraisement Of the rea
estate II 1t has been found that the valu,
has been increased, the property alonl

To Delay Philippine Campaign Until
Rainy Season Ends.
Washington, June 3.-The con-
tingent of the war department
which is in favor of quick action
and a speedy end to the Oriental cam
paign, even at a large present ex-
penditure, is chafing at delay. On the
other hand the more conservative ele-
ment points out that the rainy season
has already commenced in the Philip
pines, and that 1t would be waste Of
men and resources to throw large
body of volunteers into the islands at
the beginning of the sickly months and
to have them encamped in barracks
till they could come out in the fall and
work off their malaria campaigning
through the swamps.
The administrations advicos from
Professor Schurman. of the Philip
pine commission, have been uniformly
optimistic, and 1t is understood that
further advices of the same tenor were
borne out by the press dispatches,
which spoke Of social gayeties in Manila
for the benefit of the friendly native
population. The prospect now is that
the active campaign In Luzon is fin
ished till the end Of the rainy season.
Coincident with the withdrawal of
the volunteer troops In the Philippines
Brigadier Generals Hale, Smith and
Funston will be relieved from further
duty in that country and ordered home
for muster out, with the organizations
with which they are identified before
their elevation to brigadier general. It
was to meet this prospective reduction
in the number of general officers serv-
ing in the Philippines that Brigadier
Generals Bates, Young, Grant and
Schwan were ordered to that country.

Harrisburg, 3.-Information was

resentative John Engler. of Lycoming
county, charging him with perjury in
testifylng before the legislative inves-
tigating committee that he was Of
fered a certain sum of money by eE-
Senator John J. Coyle, of Philadel-
phia, to vote for reconsideration Of
the McCarrell bill in the assembly
last February. A warrant was issued
for Engler's arrest and he was arrested
at Williamsport today and released on
bail. lnformations will also be made
against certain other legislators who
appeared beforge the bribery commit
tee, charging them with giving false
testimony.
Robert Evans, of Philadelphia, who
is charged with having corruptly So
licited Representative William 9. Nor
ton, of Wayne county, to vote for the
McCarrell bill, waived hearing last
evening before Alderman Maurer. of
this city, and gave bail in $500 for
trial. The Commonwealth Trust COM
pany, of Harrisburg, has furnished
bonds for Mr.. Evans and other defend
ants in the bribery cases. The war
rants for the persons against whom In
formations were made on Thursday in
this city have all been served, the ac-
cused have furnished bail, and the
prospects are that the cases wi! be
called for trial at theterm of court be-

POLITICS OF
ALL KINDS.

The Democrats acknowledge the
fight lays between Bush and Fahey
with the chances in favor Of Bush.
The Evening Journal came out
last evening for George W. Bush for
Mayor and repudiated the Demo-
cratic candidate, DR.. John c. Fa-
hey.
The polls opened between II and
II o'clock and will close at 7.
The returns of the election will
be received at the Young Mems
Democratic Club.
Much activity was shown last
evening at the different party head
quarters.
The fight to-day is whether the
Regular or Union Republicans shall
be on top in this city. 1t gives
every promise of being fight to
the finish, with predictions freely
made that George W. Bush will be
the winner.
Only a few hours more and the
battle of the ballots will then be
announced.
