work OF trying to reunite the north and
south. The following additional express
sions were made:
Former Attorney General Rufus A Ayres-
The people OF the south, l am quite sure, Will
be willing TO meet Mr.. Roosevelt more than
half way. They will be satisfied if he shall
treat with them in the same friendly spirit
as did Mr.. Mckinley
Congressman H. D. Flood-We appreciate
the presidents kindly expressions, just as we
do those from any other president. 1 think
the southern people everywhere will do what
ever they can 10 make Mr.. Roosevelts ad-
ministratiOI a success.
Colonel John Murphy, Former Comman-
dant of Lee Camp, Confederate Veterans-I am
4 great admirer OF President Roosevelt, and
believe he is going to make an excellent
president. Every southern man will fully
appreciate his recently uttered sentiments.

MINERS USING RIFLES
JUDGE SAYS TROOPS NECESSARY
Strikers in Kentucky Make an
Armed Attack Upon
Reineoke Mines

Madisonville, KY, Sept. 23.-The gov
ernor has been appealed to for troops to
hold in check the turbulent coal miners
on strike. AS the result of an armed at
tack by squad of strikers to-day, Judge
J. Num- has wired Governor Beckham as
follows:
1T is my opinion that troops are needed
her at once to preserve the peace"
Early this morning the strikers opened
fire on the Reinecke mines from q grove
five hundred yards off and gradually came
nearer. One squad Of twenty-five or thirty
strikers stood within fifty yards of the
main road and peppered the street, max
ing it so warm for the guard who was pa
trolling in front of a row of miners
houses that he beat hasty retreat. The
house nearest the strikers was riddled
with bullets.
The sheriff Is summoning every avail

are being armed and will be engaged to

tmates the members calculated that.
granting all demands, the rate of taxation
for 1902 would be 1888 mills, four mills
more than last year and by about the
same amount the largest tax levy in the
city's history. The estimates did not in
clude the ward levies, which will average
two mills this year, against 1t mills last
year, and there was allowed but five mills
for city current expenses where the esti-
mates call for seven mills The members
of the board drew long breath all around
and then adjourned to tomorrow at 2
p. m. when they will begin the task Of
figuring where they can cut down the esti-
mates without seriously impairing the
public service. At the best they can
hardly expect to keep the total tax levy,
including the ward levies, very much under
80 mills.
At this mornings session DR.. Quinby
spoke for the board of education, Secretary
Ridgway, of the park board, for that
board, Mayor Ames for the police depart
ment, and Fire Chief Canterbury for the
fire department. Consideration of the
county levy was put over until tomorrow
to allow the county commissioners oppor-
tunity to get together again and revise
their estimate of last July. They then
put in an estimate of $454,0O0, equal to
tax levy of about "A mills. This estimate
Chairman Sweet explained to-day, was
only preliminary and could undoubtedly
be cut down materially. 1t is said that
the board expects to present a revised es-
innate of not to exceed 3.15 mills. This
was the figure used in making up the
rough estimate of the grand total this
morning.
The park board asked for total OF
$161, 900, the revenue from one mill tax,
the full amount allowed by law. And ct
that, the next year will show deficit of
about $9,00O Secretary Ridgway stated,
and there is no allowance for park i'm
provement or acquisition. The board will
close this year with deficit of about
$13, 900.
The school board estimates its needs for
the year beginning July 1 Of this year at
$3.50, ,66s, of which $719, 900 will have to be
raised by city taxation. The total in
cludes 100000 for new buildings Presi-
dent Quinby of the school board spoke
eloquently of the urgent need of more
buildings. The present Lincoln school
must be abandoned and a new Lincoln
school built, he said and additions to the
Bryant, Whittier and Hawthorn schools
were imperative. 1t was astonishing how
fast the school attendance grew from
