Columbus, O., Oct 1.-The Socialist
Labor party has applied to Secretary

statutory requirement for place on
the state ticket being 10, 400 signatures.
Included in the personnel of the ticket
of the party is Canton man, John
+. Flynn, residing at 1907 North Nc
Kinley avenue, that city. The ticket
follows: For governor, Harry G.
Thompson, Cincinnati; lieutenant
governor, Michael J. Hynes, Dayton;
treasurer of state, John Prudential,
Toledo; attorney general, John G. Will
bert, Cleveland; member of board Of
public works, John f. Flynn, Canton;

Randall, Springfield; clerk of the su-

tary of the partys executive commit

There is absolutely no indication
whatever that the big coal strike in
Columbiana county will be settled
soon. 1t will not be surprising il it
lasts throughout the coming winter.
Approximately 800 miners are out.
AS has been mentioned heretofore,
THE MINERS AFFECTED
are located in and about East Pales-
tine, Negley, New Waterford, Rog-
crs and in Beaver county, Pa, just
across the Ohio border line. The Of
ficials of the United Mine Workers
association meet regularly in this city
ard discuss ways and means to effect
a settlement, but so far have accom-
plished very little. Today President
Haskins, Vice President Sullivan and
Secretary Savage leave for Columbi-
ana county, the two former officials to
hold mass meetings in the strike dis
tricts and the latter to distribute funds
among the miners. The men will he
urged to keep up courage, stand by the
union and for the good of the cause
to use as far as possible union-made
products. It is reported that many
of the miners who were laid off dur
ing the dull season in the Massillon
field are at work again. The trade
prospect is such as to inspire the belief
that from now until spring the major
ity of the mines of the state will be
kept busy.
AS forecast in this correspondence
some time ago, the adjutant generals
department has practically decided
upon plan doing away with regi-
mental encampments and providing
for the assembling of the guard by
brigades instead. The legislature will
also be asked
TO EXTEND THE PERIOD
OF encampment from six days to ten
days or two weeks. II plans material
ize, there will be no more trips by reg
iments annually to water resorts for
encampment purposes, where there are
opportunities for the guardsmen to
convert the gathering into a pleasure
outing, but instead the encampment
will be held on the state grounds at
Newark, which means military work
exclusively for the troops. In the past
the encampments have been too full
of white collars, boiled shirts and
dress parades, but much of this is to
be cut out OF course dress parades will
be held, but kid gloves and kindred
things will be tabooed. Practice marches
will be held and attention given
target shooting. The mobilization of
soldiers by brigades will give the SOL
diers a chance to get familiar with
field movements on large scale and
will better fit them for genuine mill
tary service.
At Democratic headquarters yester-
day 1t was stated that Hon. Jarfos A.
Rice, OF. Canton, had notified the COM
mittee of
HIS ACCEPTANCE
of the invitation sent him to go on the
stump for the ticket this fall. Colonel
Taylor, of the speakers bureau, re-
CARDS Mr. Rice as one of the best cam
paign speakers in Ohio. He also al
luded to the impression Mr.. Rice made
on the stump in New York during the
last presidential campaign. Judge Pat
rick. of New Philadelphia, called at
headquarters yesterday and conferred
with those in charge. The statement
Is made that he is in accord with
the ticket as made up, Notwithstanding
reports to the contrary. Chairman
Daugherty went to Cincinnati yester-
day to meet with the Queen City
leaders. A rumor is out that Charles
w. Baker, of Cincinnati. the polished
orator. will be candidate for United
States senator II the Democrats win
the legislature.
