rom a Staff Correspondent.

From a Staff Correspondent.
Columbus, May 24.-The Anti-Sa.
loon people admit they got a severe
drubbing in their fight in Stark county
against the denomination of Senator
Wilhelm and Representative Pollock,
but they are not ready to play quits
yet. II the Democratic nominees are
men whose views arei in consonance with
the principles of the league, they will
be supported by the organization,
which will also make another effort to
defeat Wilhelm and Pollock. Super
intendent p. A. Baker said the leagues
failure to accomplish it's purpose at the
recent Republican primaries in Stark
county was not much of a surprise to
him. The splendid organization of the
liquor league in the county, he thinks,
had much to do with the result. Rev.
4. M. Hare, superintendent of the Can
ton district. forwarded to league head
quarters roseate reports of the situa.
tiOn in the county prior to the noinina-
ton, but the officers accepted them with
misgivings. and made due allowance
for Hare's zeal and enthusiasm. which
they believed caused him to magnify
the Importance of things concerning
the outlook for the success of the
league. Superintendent Baker stated
he knew nothing about the charges
made by DIR. Jackson. the editor of the
American Issue, organ of the league,
against Canton saloonists, whom it is
alleged violated the liquor laws, fur
ther than what was stated by that gen.
tleman in giving publicity to them. 1t
is reported that large interest was
manifested in the league meetings held
in the Canton churches last Sunday.
Carrollton observed Anti-Saloon league

FUND FOR
DEFENSE
Workers Organizing for
Self-Protection.
ASSESSMENT MADE
Miners View With Alarm the
Attempts Of Syndicate to
Get Control of Coal
Fields.

Columbus, May 24.-Are the miners
of Ohio preparing for any action the
syndicate. which is now fast obtaining
control of the mines of the state, may
take toward trying to break down their
organization?
1t looks very much as If they were,
and the two per cent. assessment on
the gross earnings of all miners of the
state, ostensibly levied to provide funds
to aid the strikers now out in the dis
trict, Is said by some well informed au-
thorities to be the first step in the
campaign. When the state convention
met here last January there was a pro-
position before it to levy an assessment
to provide a defense fund, but this fail
ed of adoption. This left the organiza-
tion with only the ordinary means OF
revenue to provide funds, and while
there is surplus after all expenses
are paid, 1t is not a large one and
would not go far in a protracted fight.
A miner who stands very close to the
state organization was in Columbus,
Wednesday morning, and while i.e
talked in very guarded manner, he
practically confirmed the statement
that an organization of the operators
was believed to be in process of forma-
ton for the purpose of breaking down
the power of the United Mine workers.
He said that everything pointed to that
belief, and that the miners were not
going to be caught mapping. If the
fight came, he said, they would be in
condition to take care of themselves
and would make a good struggle.
The operators deny that there is any
intention of making an attack on the
miners organization. but say that they
expect to stand by the agreements
which have been signed. While the
miners have faith in the local opera
tors, they have very little IN the syndi.
cate which is trying to obtain control
of the Ohio fields, and look askanse
upon the success with which it's plans
are meeting.
An operator, in speaking of the two
per cent. assessment said: THAT will
put lot of money in the treasury IF
the miners. While some of it will have
to be used in providing for the wants
of the miners now on strike. yet from
my figures there will be considerably
more than enough to provide for their
wants. 1t should produce at least $1,000
per day, and from this large defense
fund can soon be accumulated. | do
not think there will be any trouble,
but there is no doubt that the miners
view with alarm the attempts of a syn
dicate to get control of the coal fields
of the state. and feel that it will not be
well to be left to its mercies."

armed highwaymen near Second East
and Fourth South streets early this
morning. The thugs. after relieving
Mr.. Carlson Of $3.50 III cash and a silk
handkerchief, ordered him to stand
still while they made their escape.
The hOldup occurred about 1;30 this
morning, while Mr.. Carlson was re-
turning from escOrting a young lady
home from the Republican ball at
Christensen He was walking up the
east side of the street, when in a dark
place two men suddenly stepped out
and one of them thrust the muzzle of a
revolver in his face, with the order to
throw up his hands. Carlson immedi-
ately complied, and while one of the
men kept him covered with the re-
volver, the other searched him.
The thug took $3.50, which Carlson
had in his pocket, and a large silk
handkerchief, and after going through
his other pockets without finding any
cash, told him that he guessed that
was all. They ordered him to stand
still until they got away.
The young man made mis- way to

advocates sweeping changes that might
well be planks in a national platform Of
some great reform party. First Of all
Mr.. Game wants to nationalize the steam
ship service, connecting the isle of Man
with England. and run it without prOflt.
Then he applies himself to the ManX
steam and street railroads, and would
furnish the same radical system to them.

similar manner. the ManX parliament
controlling the drainage, cultivation ana
tree planting The banks. of course, are
included in this naturalization scheme
by which Mr., Game believes that such
financial scandals as occurred on the Isle
Of Man will be avoided
Mr. Caine justifies the apparently I'M
profitable national undertakings by point
ing out that the primary factor in ManX
prosperity is the islands popularity as a
holiday resort and it must prosper or
decline as It meets the needs of visitors.
With a parting reference to the neces-
sity for a reform of the system of repre-
sentatiOn and Kidding the legal system of
