A PLAN TO DELAY
Action Upon the Measure Until
the Tax Question in the
State Is Oispos-
ed OF.
(From a STAR CORRESPONDENTS )


Columbus, Feb. 24.-The temperance
measure is to come up in the house
Wednesday, If 1t is not sidetracked by
a plan that has been evolved by in
tercsted parties. The forces OF the
administration do not like to rub it
in too strong on the liquor element,
but it's promises to the liquor people
cannot interfere too strongly with its
promise to the temperance people. So
there is a division of sentiment as to
the safest plan to pursue for 1t is not
desired to do anything that would
hurt the party, whether the morals
of the state of Ohio suffer or not.
Some friends of the plan to raise
the tax and consider that sufficient
punishment for the sins of the liquor
people have undertaken to suggest
that the bill be held up by the COM
mittee on revision till the taxation

are not disposed of in manner that
produces enough revenue, the liquor
people can be held up for the differ,
ence. 1t Is not known yet whether the
plan will be put through. but some
party leaders favor it and consider
that it would be good politics. 81
whether the Beal bill comes up in III
special assignment for Wednesday de
pends somewhat upon the action o
the revision committee. which is al
administration committee.
Whether the bill Is held UP or not
1t In pretty sure to pass when it get
a chance. The tax may be raise'
also, but there is such sentimen
for municipal option that 1t seem
hardly probable that the bill will b
beaten.

the new Canton plant have already
been drawn, but that the company; has
not closed the contracts for its cree
ton. The new plant If built, will have
capacity Of 100000 brick per diem
and will employ about 175 people.
The work of the three plants will be
harmonized and new machinery will
be introduced to increase the capacity
and also to decrease the number of
employees, which is required by the
present mode of operation. One of the
Improvements will be steam shovel,
which will be used by the plants in

Akron Marksm men Win by
Narrow M a rgin.
CANTON CLOSE AFTER
Lakeside Club Brings Home
Many Prizes But Loses
First Chance at Low
ing Cup.

The Lakeside Gun club of Canton
came out second in the big tournament
at Akron, Saturday, some OF the boys
doing remarkable shooting. While de-
feated, they were far from being dis
graced losing by the close score of Az
to 4OS. Akron, shooting on her own
grounds, took first place and the Bar
berton team took third.
The Canton shooters say they have
no excuses to offer. They were beaten
fairly, but when it is taken into con-
sideration that they were on strange
grounds and were allowed only ten
practice birds each before the tourna-
ment began, it can be seen that the
real form of the team was not dis
played. The two teams of 10 men
each, however, broke 50 per cent. of
the targets, which is remarkable
score.
The trophy that is being shot for is
q handsome loving cup, with hgure
of a marksman just in position 10
shoot 1t is a massive silver affair,
and must be won three times in sue
cession before it becomes the exclu-
sive property of any one club.
In the shoot Ed. Young, of Canton,
had the longest straight run, break
ing SO without miss. He missed but
three targets out of the so shot at.
Haak broke 46 and Egley A. All the
boys on the Canton team shot well.
1t was in the shoots for special
prizes that the Canton boys showed
their metal Haak won handsome
carving set, silk umbrella and pair
of suspenders. DR.. Becherer won a
fishing reel, Schwartz a scarf pin, Eg-
ley, the teetotaler, captured a beer
stein, shooting in form that made
his friends a little suspicious Guest
won q corduroy hunting coat, while
Young, Schwartz and Haak tied with
Is straight each for dress suit case,
This tie will be shot off on the Can
ton grounds the first time the boys get
together.
In addition to the foregoing, there
was a miscellaneous lot of knives
shooting vests and other paraphernalia
that was brought to this city.
The next tournament will be held
in Canton on March 18th, and it is ex.
pected that at least six teams will
be present together with scores of in
dependent marksmen.
