senator Sleber, Of Akron, will sup
port the bill to give the Akron Judicial
Subdivision an additional Common
Pleas Judge, having presented the re-
port of the Judicial Committee, rec
ommending the passage of the bill.
The Republican nomination for Judge,
which is equivalent to nm election, will
go to n Medina county man. How
much this election of Medina county
man ls going to relieve the stress of
cnses upon the Summit county docket
remains to be seen, but some of Ak
r0n's lawyers are frank to predict that
the Summit county court will hardly
know that Il new Judgeship has been
created so far as reduction of the dock
ct Is concerned.

The Medina County Gazette, which
has hitherto been opposed to an add.
tonal Common Pleas Judge for the
Akron Subdivision on the ground of
expense, is now over head and heels
In favor of the bill to create another
Judgeship. The Gazette has discover
ed that the nomination is going to
some Medina county lawyer to whom
Mr.. Hanna owes n political debt, and
this promise Of opportunity to share
in the loaves and fishes causes the
usually consistent Gazette to forget
all about its past objections as to ex-
pense. 1t will be great day for the
bnck-country lawyers when Senator
Wightman's bill becomes law.

LEGlSLATlNG FOR DOGS.

One OF the members of the New York
| Legislature wants to make II n capital
crime for dog to bny the moon.
A bill just introduced provides that
'any resident who Is disturbed from
rest by the barking or yelping of a
dog, may first make complaint of
such fact to n Justice and If n rcpeti-
tlon of the nuisance occurs the jus-
tlce may order the dogs execution"

classified with "horscs. mules, cattle,
sheep, gonts, swine, and geese" the
implication being that the Ohio dog IL

that any owner suffering the above
named animals, including dogs, to

pied by the owner or keeper of such
animals, shall forfeit and pay for
every such violation, MS penalty there

New York's Legislature may regu.

But after all, matters might be n
great deal worse. While the modern

Akron's public schools cost Sl1 800 n
year more now than they did three
years ago. That's not so bad, when the
large addition that has been made to
the teaching force Is considered But
the taxpayers find It more difficult to
understand why the expenses of the
city generally exclusive of the school
department, should have been increas-
ed about 100000 annually over six
years ago. The taxpayers don't enjoy
added benefits equivalent to this large
sum.

new LINE
From Western Reserve
to Southern Ohio.
1t will Connect C., T. & v. R. R. With
B. & 0. Main Line.

The surveyors of the Baltimore &
Ohio are now at work on plans for a
line which will connect the Cleveland
Terminal & Valley with the main line
Of the Baltimore & Ohio. This is a
mvement to secure the much-talked-o
and long -wished-for line from Cleve-
land into the central and southern
parts of the state.
A number of connections have been
suggested, but none of them have been
what the company wanted exactly.
The latest scheme is to make the con-
nection by the way Of the Valley June
tion to Camden. The exact route has
not been figured out, but 1t Is said the
line will be 80 projected as to touch
most of the towns Of Importance in
that territory. This line, however, is
not to be entirely for the local trade
that 1t will afford, but is placed more
to give the Western Reserve an outlet
to the south than any other way. The
Il. e. o. wants chance to connect the
Valley with the Baltimore Il Ohio
Southwestern. This can be done ut Co
lumbus. The desire is first to get its
own line from Cleveland to Columbus
and when that has been achieved to
make through car service between
Cleveland and Cincinnati, and through
there on to st. Louis. The surveyors,
1t is understood, have been adjured to
make all possible haste with the plans,
80 as to allow the road to be built as
soon as possible. 1t is said that the
line will be rushed through, and Mt
once through vestibuled train out Of
Cleveland for the southwest will be
started. When the new line is built,
the roadbed Of the Valley will be i'm
proved.

THE LIMON ATROCITY.
A mas. Meeting ia Denver TO Protest
Against NJ.

Denver, Col, November Sat mass
meeting held today strong protests
were mads against the actions Of the
Limon moi that burned john Porter,
the negro rapist ana murderer. at the
stake. The meeting was presided over
by u. NJ. Hobbs. president OF the 4. III.
Q. A. ana speeches were mads BY GOV.
q. s. Thomas. May II. v. johnson, OF
Denver, President Slocum OF Colorado
college, Rabbi Friedman. Rev. Mr..
Coyie. Mrs Sarah Plsttedecker, promi-
nent In women's club circles, and Others.
They all spoks in strong terms condemn
ing what was termed the "Ltmon
atrocity," and also denounced the sensa-
tional display of newspaper stories con-
cerning It. The audience was stirred at
times to riotous demonstrations OF APP
prevail. Resolutions adopted admit the
difIlcu lsy OF adequately characterizing
the crime for which Porter was punished,
but declare that however much the negro
by his crime merited death no crime
can justify recourse to such barbaric
methods and that while the action OF the
people OF Lincoln county is attributed to
excitsment and passion, IL is none the
less condemned and discountenanoed.
Hope Is expressed that law will be
speedily enacted In Colorado, providing
effective punishment for such crimes and
providing punishment for any one taking
part in lynching.
Governor Thomas in the course OF his
remarks said:
az do not believe the people OF this
state are worse than she people OF any
other state. This Is as civilized COM
munity as any state In the union and In
all OF them we hear Of occurrences Ike
this when the people have been suddenly
aroused to some such terrible act, when
some such AWFUL crime as this negro
cries to heaven for vengsa nee. For the
agonizsd parents and for whatever they
have done I have no words of blame or
censure. Put ourselves in their places and
we can understand their wild desire for
ven geance."
The Governor disclsimed any response
bility for the affair, saying that he I'M
derstood that Sheriff freeman had agreed
to leave Porter in jail for eight days and
had gone out of town SO believing, oaiy
to return to learn that the sheriff and
prisoner were on the way TO Limon.
"This awful offense has been COM
mitted by an entire county" he contin-
ued, land ali that we can do is to deplore
and condemn this act OF barbarity."
