Certified Friday That
Money Was In Fund.
IT WAS NOT THERE
When the Commissioners At
tempted to Let Contract
-.Must Begin Al
Over Again.

When the Injunction proceedings
were begun and the restraining order
granted by the court, the petition
stated that the money was not in fund
nor in course of collection with which
to pay for the work, and that the au-
ditor Of the county had not certified
that there was amy money to the credit
of the fund available for such pur'
pose.
The answer filed by the commits,
sioners states that the levy has been
made, the taxes are in course Of col
lection and the money has not been
appropriated for any other purpose
This looked like discrepancy, and a
reporter called upon Auditor Reed to
get an explanation. Mr.. Reed stated
that he had just certified to the com
missioners Friday that the money was
in course of collection, aud that he
could not have done SO at any time
until after the first of October. So
that. according to this statement. when
II was sought to let the contract, the
auditor had not certified to their being
any money In the fund.
1t is the opinion OF number that
the entire matter will have to be be
gun over again.

MEMORIAL SERVICE.
Columbus Knights Of Pythias
Lodges Hold Joint

Service.
From a Staff Correspondent.
Columbus, Oct 1.-THE late Presi-
dent Mckinley was member Of the
knights of Pythias, and lodges
throughout the state have passed reso-
lutions concerning his death, but 1t
devolved upon the Columbus lodges
to hold joint memorial service for all
Of the Pythians of the state. The SER
vices were held Sunday afternoon In
the immense Columbus auditorium,
and there was an attendance that tax
ed the capacity of the place. Lead,
Kindly Light" and Nearer, My God,
to Thee" were sung by a large chorus
of mixed voices, and the Columbus
Republican Clee club, Of thirty voices
also rendered a selection. The prin-
cipal address was made by Rev. 0. G,
Wright, young Brethren preacher, Y
member of the order. In his address,
which was most eloquent one, he
spoke Of the beautiful home life of the
late president, at Canton and where
ever his official duties called him, and
he declared that the teachings which
he received as Pythian initiated in
the direction of forming his character,
both as an executive and in his private
life. He was declared to be the ideal
Pythian. Resolutions were adopted.

Columbus, Oct 14.--While boards Of
trade are seeking new industries for
Ohio cities, they are overlooking one
industry that is great thing for a
city, namely college. Columbus is .,
city Of colleges. College inhabitants
are desirable set, for they spend
money. They create commissary de-.
partments that require larders to oe
filed from grocery and provision stores
with unabating regularity. They bring
to city well bred young men-most-
ly-who dress well and who
NEED MANY THINGS
in the line of haberdashery and fur
nishings. They patronize theatres,
restaurants, and once in long while n
saloon. No branch of business can
help but feel the presence of these
young men. There are several col
leges in Columbus that make the city
6, eater than it's census shows, during
large portion Of the year.
Canton has no college. IN some
small towns are colleges that have the
prestige of an old name, but have few
students. One of them might be Sc
cured. Many Canton boys, who arc
going to school elsewhere, might be
EDUCATED RIGHT AT HOME,
and 1t would not be difficult to attract
many others to so attractive city as
Canton.
At the Ohio State university thif

SECRETARY RETURNS
To Washington After Closing
UP Appralse ment Of
tho Estate.

Secretary Cortelyou left for Wash
ington, Saturday night. He and Judge
Day, administrators Of the Mckinley
estate, spent most of Saturday together
in looking over the papers and docu-
ments of the late president The ap-
praisement has been nearly completed
but the inventory Is not yet ready for
fling. The estate Is In good shape and
and work of arranging the properties
has been progressing rapidly. Mr..
Cortelyou will probably return to Caa-
ton again before long to complete the
business arrangements.
Mrs. Mckinley's condition continues
to improve though the progress noted
Is but slow. She sees some of her
most intimate friends when they call
but has little to say to them after the
first greeting. One thing that seems
remarkable IL that she never talks OF
her husband to any one. though her
thoughts seem to be continually upon
him. She continues to take her daily
drives and almosl every day pays .

sister, Mrs, Barber. iA With her almost

Submitted a Draft of a
New Road Law.
THEY WILL APPOINT
Supervisors Instead Of People
Eleeting Them--AppIies
to Stark County
Only.

The township trustees of Stark
county held a second meeting at the
court house Saturday afternoon for
the purpose Of taking some additional
action toward having the road laws Of
the state changed. The main Oh iect
is to have what is known as the poll
tax done away With and have the
money paid into the hands Of the trus-
tees, and they also favor the abolition
OF the supervisor aud the appointment
in each township Of some suitable
person to oversee the woodworking.
The meeting was presided over by
Trustee L. b. Harris. Of Tuscarawas
township. and l.. P. Slusser. of Perry,
was secretary. The committee that
had been appointed at q previous
meeting reported the following draft
of law which is TO be presented to
the next legislature through the rep
resentatives or senator representing
this county:
BE II enacted by the general as.
sembly Of the state Of Ohio, as fol-
lows; That the township trustees OF
the several townships In Stark county
shall, ON the expiration OF the present
term of the supervisors OF roads and
annually thereafter, in their several
townships, appoint a suitable person in
each road district having the qualif-
cations OF an elector, to serve as su-
pervisor Of roads for period of one
year."
The report of the committee was
adopted and the matter Of changing
the poll tax was left for future meet
ing It was at frst intended to have
a township supervisor Of roads, but
the report adopted provides for one in
each district. The only question that
arises is whether or not the trustees
can select better men than the people
can elect. II Is claimed that persons
are often elected through sympathy
or for some other reason In district
without any reference to fitness. On
the other hand II is urged that the
new law which applies only to Stark
county may be deemed special legisla.
tlon and for that reason be declared
unconstitutional.
H. II. Snyder. of Tuscarawas, G. M
Dewalt, Of Osnaburg. and A. l.. Leon
ard, Of Lexington township, were ap
pointed committee to bring this pro
posed law to the attention Of the leg
islators.
