and told of the long litigation me CITY
of Richmond has had with the Bel! Com
l,any in The Federal Courts In shat con
,csr the very sheet anchor that saved the
CITY was the provision in the State stat
rtns that the telephone company could
nor entcr the city without the consent OF
the Council.
In conclusion Mr. Pollard took UP and
rnnlicd ia other arguments advanced by
Mr. Christian He ridiculed the idea that
these corporators. from disinierestea mo-
lives. were rushing in to save the poor
down-troddcn. lie wanted to know where
the demand for the passage of this act
had come from lie had not heard Of
any meetings in the country demanding
the passage of this act. All the corpora
tors were residents Of cities.

Mr. Hunton said the company was per-
fectly willing TO place in the bill pro-
vision allowing the measure to be amend
cd or repealed 1T any time by the Gere-
raj Assembly. But the company was not
willing to allow every little town and
hamlet TO fix rates. He had been credi-
taby Informed that there were 4 dozen
or more States with such laws on their
statute books as that contemplated III
this act.
Mr. Hunton said the corporators wanted
no unfair advantage of any one. They
were perfectly willing to have the gene

General Gordon commends the perusal
of General Beynton's circular to every

of the South, so that they can see the
impartiaity and fairness which has ac-
tuated this commission and the praise
worthy and strenuous efforts now made
by this patriotic Union soldier and his
associates TO render full ana exact justice
on both sides
with profound conviction that he is
performing an imperative duty which he
owes to his comrades and to his country
men of both sections of our now re-
united cuntry. and that compliance will
confer lasting and far-reachi,S benefit
upon the history, OF our country and
upon the actors in the great battles

What to Do Until the Doctor Arrives.

1t Is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear ones suffer while await
ing the arrival of the doctor. An AL.
bany IN. " dairyman called at a
drug store there for doctor to come
and see his child, then very sick with
Group. Not finding the doctor in, he
left word for him to come at once on
his return. He also bought q bottle
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy,
which he hoped would give some re-
lief until the doctor should arrive. In
a few hours lie returned, saying the
doctor need not come, as the child was
much better. The druggist Mr.. Otto
Scholz, says the family has since re-
commended Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy to their neighbors and friends
until he has constant demand for il
from that part of the country. For

Mayor Young Named as the Akron
Representative.

Hon. w. Il. Young, is Il member of
the General Committee of the National
Boer Relief Fund Association of New
York. This Is the organization of
which Hon. Bourke Cochran Is presl'
dent. and George w. Van Siclem, who,
besides being secretary treasurer, is the
Counsel in the United States for the
two South African republics and the
correspondent of the English Trans
vaal Committee as well as the English
Arbitration Committee. He also rep
resents the Algemeen Netherlands Yer
bond and is in direct communication
through a secret code with DR.. Leyds,
DR.. Muller, DR.. Kiewiet de Jonge and
j. II. Hofmeyr.
The Association Of which the Mayor
is an honored officer, has for its object
the raising of million dollar fund for
the benefit of the widows and orphans
of the heroic Beers killed in the gallant
fight for freedom and independence
against overwhelming odds. So that
some of the dire and widespread desti
tuition, which is bound to result there
from. may be somewhat effectively re-
lieved.
A Womans Auxiliary League, of
which Princess Agnes Salm Salm Is
chairman is arranging for mammoth
war benefit at the Metropolitan Opera
House, New York, which promises to
be huge success.
1t is the purpose of the Association
to have sub-committees Of the League
in various cities in this state that will
cooperate with the National headquar-
ters in the st. James building New
| York.
Already the Mayors of scores of large
cities throughout the country are ac.
tive in raising funds in their respective
|
| cities, and In consequence Of such eff.
forts the National Boer Relief Fund is
steadily increasing.
In order that the Million Dollars may
he raised, it is urgently necessary that
every pro-Boer sympathizer in the
United States should cooperate with
| The National Boer Relief Fund Associa
ton of New York and each and every
once contribute according to his or hel
| means.
The Mayor is the local custodian OF
funds contributed and will see that
each contributor, no matter how snlf
the sum, receives handsome souvenir
receipt.

Plants That Lead World

Especial Correspondence.l

Barberton, March 29.-Barberton has
the proud distinction of having four
of the largest concerns of their kind
in the world, namely, The Diamond
Match factory, The National Sewer
Pipe plant, The Stirling Boiler works
and the Columbia Chemical works or
Soda Ash factory.
Mr.. o. G. Barber, the father of the
Magic City, is interested in every one
of the above named concerns, except
the Soda Ash, and was instrumental
in getting the Pittsburg capitalists to
locate that plant here. Before nine
months elapse seven more factories are
promised to locate here, and should
these promises be fulfilled, this village
will witness a boom such as has not
been seen in Ohio for many years. The
!inding of oil has greatly advertised the
illage, people coming here daily to in
yestigate for themselves the boom the
village is enjoying. Most of the visit
ors do not return home before they
have made an investment in real es-
tate.

REFUSED
To Give Murderers of Merchant Goss
New Trial.

The Circuit court at Ravenna We'd
nesday refused a new trial in the
cases of John MCGOWAN, Dan Snyder,
and Frank Sommers, convicted of the
murder of n. X. Goss at Edinburg on
the morning of January 13. The court
found no error in the bill of eXCep-
tions and unanimously affirmed the
verdict. 1t is doubtful If the cases
will be taken to the Supreme court,
and thes three prisoners will probably
spend the remainder of their lives in
the penitentiary. In conversation with
his attorney, Dan Snyder stated that
his home was near Lexington, Ky,
but still refuses to give his correct
name.
