adverse criticism because OF the fact
that It has not provided modern up
to-date hotel, than for any other cause,
and It is absolutely impossible to meas
ure the pccuniary loss we are suffering
therefrom. II the hotel cannot be built
as a private enterprise, without public
assistance, then that assistance should
be given without further delay. II the
hotel cannot be built as private en-
terprise, then It should be built as q
public enterprise, and Investment there
in regarded rs public duty. there
fore have to recommend that the COM
mittee on hotels be re-appointed, and
empowered to devise some plan by
which the enterprise can be under
taken.
The next subject which / desire to
especially call your attention, is that Of
change in the form of our municipal
government. I need hardly call your
attention to the fact that the large
amount Of Indebtedness being incurred
by way Of special improvements, which
takes the form of special assessments,
Is rapidly becoming a great burden
upon the people Of this city. and that
some means must be adopted to care
fully and judiciously expend the revs-
nues of the city, TO the end that its
Indebtedness may be reduced rather
than increased. The present system
seems to be wholly inadequate to ac-
complish the same, and all hopes now
seem to be dispelled that any
GENERAL ENACTMENT
providing for change in the form of
municipal governments, can be passed
by the legislature. ! therefore have to
propose that committee be appointed
to draft a special bill, providing for a
change in the form of our local munich
pal government, and that the legis-
lature be asked to pass the same at
its next session. The legislative power
of the council, should not be disturbed,
but the mayor should be given veto
power over the acts Of the council, and
be authorized to appoint the heads Of
all departments who should constitute
board of control. A police court judge
should be provided to the end that the
mayor may be thus enabled to devote
his entire time and attention to the
business interests of the city.
In conclusion desire to thank the
officers and members of the board of
directors who have served with me
throughout the year, for their uniform
courtesy and kindness to me, and the
self-sacrificing spirit which they have
shown in carrying out the work of the
board. Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES r. MILLER.

French line steamship La Gascogne.
When her trunks were inspected on
the pier by the customs officials Mrs.
Myers objected to the amount of duty

sent to Pittsburg in bond.
Although she did not know 1t at the
time, by turning her trunks over to
the customs men she saved her prop

on the pier two deputy sheriffs waited
to attach her property, but they were
forced to leave without doing so, how
ever, after serving Mrs. Myers with a
summons in a suit for $4,000.

REPORTS OF COMMITTEES.
Showing canton's Progress Along All
Lines,

Lines.
The reports of the committees were
read in regular order, following the
reading of the reports of the various
officers. Some of them were quite in
teresting, some very tedious, others
were short and to the point. They
showed the progress made by the board
during the past year, and pointed out
lines along which the board could work
to best advantage during the coming
year. Many statistics were presented
all of which went to show that Canton
has enjoyed prosperity during the past
twelve months, and that the board of
trade has been a power for good in
the development and the prosperity Of
the city.
The most striking feature of the re-
port of the finance committee, as read
by It's chairman, Mr.. III. S. Kaufman,
was its showing of the enormous in
crease in the local bank clearings
From 1892, when the clearings for
that year were S8,549,000 until last
year, there has been steady increase.
Last year the clearings were S14,S19,.
900. which shows net increase of rs

The regular annual meeting Of the

ports of the standing committees Of
the body, as well as those Of its Off.
GERS, was held in the city hall We'd
nesday evening. 1t was called to or.
der by President Miller at 1880 o'clock.
About 20 members were present at that
time, but enough came in during the
next half hour to swell the ranks to 80,
There was but one little incident to
mar the splendid monotony Of the rou-
tine. That occurred during the elec.
tion Of officers. The president had
been elected, or rather reelected, and
the matter of choosing the f1rst-vice
president was brought before the house.
The name of Mr.. G. A. Dougherty was
put forward for reelection. A motion
was made that the rules be suspended,
and that the secretary be instructed
to cast the ballot for Mr.. Dougherty.
While the motion was being put by the
president, Mr.. Dougherty requested
that he be not reelected, because, he
said, he had not the time to devote
to the duties of the Office. Mr.. A. M
McCarty moved the point Of order, and
Mr.. Dougherty subsidized. Then the
motion was put by the president
Quick as g. flash, before the "ayes" and
mays" had been called for, Mr.. Dough
erty cried out, II move to amend, by
substituting the name of A. M. Nc
Carly for mine." There was a second
to the motion, the president put 1t, the
amendment carried, and in twinkline
Mr.. Dougherty had fought himself Out
of a position which was about to be
thrust upon him. And, when the mo

The reading of the reports of the
various committees for the year occu
pied considerable time. These few
striking things can be cleaned from
the reports of the committees:
First, that new hotel will be bull
within the next six months.
Second, that Canton's bank clearings
have increased rs per cent in the pas
ten years.
Third, that the membership and eff
fectiveness of the board of trade have
increased.

exception of Mr.. Dougherty, were re

per cent in the past eight years in this
one matter alone. The report also
showed that the city Of Canton has
enjoyed continued prosperity during
the year 1900, that there has been a
good yield Of agricultural products, and
that the mills and factories in the city,
have reflected, in the manner in which
they had been kept busy and employed
labor, the general prosperity of the
country. The report also showed that
the money market is more easy and
that there Is more money in the vaults
of the banks, trust companies and
building and loan associations in the
city now than there ever has been
before.
The committee on lumber, through
its chairman, Mr.. Phil ]. Bernower,
reported that the price of lumber was
about normal again, and that building
In Canton, which had been stopped
last spring and summer by the in
crease in the price of lumber would be
begun again. Mr.. Borrower predicted
that there would be considerable build.
ing during the coming year, and also
that the price of lumber would not ad.
vance materially during 1901.
The report of the committee on sta
tistics was statistical enough to suit
the veriest statistician. It was full
of figures. comparative and otherwise,
from which the following deductions
were drawn, and suggestions made as
sort of summing up of the whole
situation:
Good roads," read the report, "a
| first class hotel, a large hall that will
seat several thousand and a good grain
and produce market will bring more
money to the city than any factory that
would employ 500 workmen, and would
result in the employment Of double
the number of clerks now employed
in this city,"
1t was shown by the report of the
committee on coal and clay which was
read by it's chairman, James ]. Clark
that the brick industry has been active
and firm during the past year. The
output during the past year was $4,000,
900 bricks, an increase of 100000 ovel
that of 1899. The increase in hollow
building brick was 1,000. 900, and II, ,O0C
more lineal feet of drain tile were man
ufactured here in 1900 than in 1899
There has been falling off of 2600C
tons in the amount of coal handled in
this city in 1900 as against that of 1899
The use Of natural gas is wholly re
| sponsible for this.
| Mr. Charles r. Frazer, chairman OF
the committee on membership, read Q
short report, which showed that the
board had an increased membership o
81, and that the total now amounts
to 1856.
Mr.. Joseph Biechele, the chairman
of the committee on public improve
ments, simply submitted a copy of thai
part of the annual report of City Clerl
Louis N. Ley, which showed the new
sanitary and storm water sewers, the
amount of street paving, sidewalk i'm
provements and grading that has beer
done in the past year.

PRESIDENT MILLER
Submits His Annual Address and
Makes Some recommendations.

Makes Some Recommendations.
Following is the text of the annual
address of President Charles r. Miller,
To the Members of the Board of Trade:
The constitution makes 1t my duty,
but It is my pleasure, to present you an
annual report of my stewardship as
your president. During the past year
the membership of the board has reach
ed the largest number in the history
of its existence. demonstrating the fact
that the larger the number the greater
the influence of the organization. In
a city of the size and character of Can
ton, the membership of the board Of
trade should be not less than five hun
dred, and with such membership
coupled with the spirit which has thus
far characterized the organization, its
power for good could not be estimated.
We have passed through the year
with comparatively few financial disas-
tiers. Only one industry has gone out
of business, and two new ones have
been added or are under contract-the
Canton Mine Door company and the
Stark Rolling Mill company. Our in
dustries never have been SO prosperous,
many have enlarged their facilities,
and all report o busy aid successful
year. The bank clearances are greater
than ever before, and the percentage
of gain for Canton is much greater
than cities of corresponding population
throughout the state.
Through the work of the board of
directors, and the cooperation of the
railroads entering Canton, uniform
SWITCHING CHARGES
have been agreed upon and announced,
which has done away with the neces-
sity of building belt line, and prac-
tically places at the door of every manu-
featuring establishment, three great
railway systems.
Along the line of railway develop
ment. both in steam and electric lines
much is promised for the coming year
In reviewing thus briefly the work OF
the past year, can not refrain from
calling attention to what / concede
to be the most important subjects fol
your consideration during the coming
year.
Tho first and paramount subject fol
consideration, should be the erection
