Speaking of the Ohio Republican
League. Chairman Dick, of the Re-
publican State Executive Committee,
gives the League credit with doing
splendid work in the last campaign
when the Executive Committee of the
League worked hand in hand with
Chairman Dick and his associates.
The Ohio League consists of one hun
dred clubs, with membership of
thirty Thousand, and in its ranks are
many of the foremost Republicans of
the State. The organization is strong
in its support of Republican princi-
Piles, platform and leaders, 1t is far
from being a dead organization or a
factional organization as Is intimated
by those who are not in touch with
the present administration.

Hon. Theo. F. Davis, of Marietta,
O., whose name has been frequently
mentioned in connection with the
nomination for Congress in the Fiji
teenth district, makes formal an
nouncement OF his candidacy.
He is one of the best known men of
the district, has been before conven-
tions in the past and came close to a
nomination four years ago.
As a Republican, believing in the
principles and platform of his party,
strong in his adherence to President
Mckinley approving his wise and able
course in the perplexing questions
that have besought him as the Chief
Executive of the United States, Mr..
Davis needs no further introduction to
The Republicans of the district who
will be called on to make nominee.
He was chosen to represent the Mari
eta disctrict In the Senate in the 6Sth
General Assembly. where the duties of
.hat important position qualified him,
to an extent at least, for higher and
more arduous duties.
When the Little Kanawha river
improvement was contemplated, Mr..
Davis, as engineer, located the locks
and dams, which have proved his
ability in connection with water ways.
He went from there to the Cleveland
G. Marietta railroad, making the pre-
liminary survey and experimenting
the construction of some of the more
important tunnels.
He was instrumental in having the
Government take the Musklngum
river from the state. the improve
ments following proving the wisdom
of his efforts
On the first call for troops in the
Civil War he responded. He after
wards was a member of the SD Indi-
ana. In all his positions he has taken
great interest in the welfare of the
soldier whose friend and supporter
he is and will be.
He has resided in Marietta for
years, where he has been engaged in
many business enterprises Of various
kinds, was editor of the Marietta
Leader for a number of years, and is,
today, successfully engaged in bust
ness, his attention being given largely
to the development Of oil.
In presenting his claims for recogni-
tion at the hands of the convention he
does so with the belief in his capabili-
ties to carefully guard the interests of
all the people of all district, and to so
represent them, if chosen, az to re-
fleet credit upon himself and his con-
stitutents.
He has opened headquarters in Ma
rietta and will be pleased 10 hear
from any and all who are interested in
his candidacy, or who believe that the
honor should be passed around. He is
the only candidate announced from
Washington county, which county feels
entitled to the nomination.

tion. The following members were

To the Honorable City Council
Gentlemen-T hereby tender my res
ignation as Chief of the Fire Depart
ment of the city of Marietta, the same
to take effect Immediately. Respect
fully, DAN BlSzANIZ.
This created considerable comment
as Mr.. Biszantz desired to be released
at once and it is difficult matter, in
the opinion of some members, to Sc
cure a competent man to fill his place
and at the same time to keep up the
number of we'll trained members OF
the department. 1t was finally left to
the Fire Committee and Mayor to
take action and report.
Engineer Gates estimate OF the cost
of paving Maple street was read. The
total cost of this work is estimated at
S6,S31.S3; the cost to the city being
$S72.74, and to the owners of abutting
property $5,95909. On motion the es-
innate was placed on file.
In the report of the Fire Committee
in the West Side station matter, the
growth of the city rendering further
fire protection absolutely necessary
was mentioned, and the committee
recommended the purchase of two
horses, wagon and other equipment,
and renting the building of William
Brabham for the establishment of a
temporary station, the expense to the
city being about $500. After a five
minute recess during which time the
members talked the matter over, a
motion carried that the Clerk be in
structed to advertise for two first
class horses to be delivered at the
City Hall March Is.
The committee on the Montgomery
street sewer bill for extras asked a
weeks time which was granted.
Mr.. Marsch brought up the matter
of the filling UP the gutter at Sixth
and Charles streets ana Salu tnlre was
considerable objection made by prop
erty owners in that neighborhood on
account of the stencil. Investigation
by Commissioner Best proved that the
filling up had been done by order of
the Board cf Health. On motion the
Clerk was instructed to address a
communication to the Board of Health
requesting them to revoke the order.
On motion by Storck, the Fire
committee was instructed to rent the
Brabham building on Fort Square for
the use of the West Side fire station.
The bills were then called for, read

ALASKA'S FUTURE.
Destined to be a Wonderful Mining
Country Says Consul McCook.

washington, Aug. ALASKA is des-
tined to be a wonderful mining coun-
try" said United States Consul McCook
at Dawson City, in a letter to the state
department The Tanana district, he
says, is creating a stir and is dividing
hOnOrs with the Koyukuk country. In
the Tanana regions the miners claim
they can get from 10 to 80 cents worth
of pay dirt to the pan and this in sum-
mer digging with only two or three feet
to bed rock is equivalent to 81 a pan
where one has to go twenty-five feet to
bed rock.
1.-THE great necessity now in Alaska -
says Consul McCook, lis good roads,
good camps, and the prospecting of
comparatively unknown sections"
Great satisfaction was expressed
at Dawson City this spring, he says,
after the wash-up by miners who work
ed for men who had leased mining
claims from the owners. The laymen
sign contracts to work SO many feet of
the claim during the season, the owner
to receive so per cent of the gold com
ing out of the claims, and the lessee
agreeing that all men working the
property will be employed under a writ
ten contract by which they promise not
to hold the claim in any way liable for
their wages. 1t has turned out in hun
dreds of cases that the cost of working
the claims has taken more than so per
cent of the output, the lessees share
Thus the men employed on the claims
have been deprived of their wages.
Laymen on rich claims. says Consul
McCook can do very we'll, but the ma
jority of Klondike claims cannot be
worked on this basis at the current
rate of wages.
