To Be Made Of Patterson
Redistricting Bill.
IT MAY Be AMENDED
In Order to Gerry m ander the

Fight on.
(From a stafr Correspondent n,.,


Columbus, April 8.-The Patterson
redistricting bill. which leaves the con-
gressional districts as they now are,
will be special order in the house on
Wednesday. 1t Is probable that an at
tempt will be made to amend 1t on the
floor SO as to change the Columbus
and Dayton districts to make them
Republican. The Democrats almost to
a man will support the measure, and 1t
is somewhat uncertain as to what the
issue will be. Congressman r. w.
Tayler, Of Lisbon, favors the PROPOSE
tion to change the two districts in
question and he has urged the Colum-
biana legislators to work to this end.
Those who are fighting the movement
to change. are doing so on the ground
that II the Columbus and Dayton dis
triets are altered it may lead to q
grand change throughout the entire
state. An interesting fight may be
looked for.

TOWNS PULLED
THE OTHER WAY
And as q Result II Is Believed
to Have Carried 6y q
Small Msrgin--
The Vote.

The indications are that the propos-
ition to levy tax for the erection of
infirmary buildings has carried, al
though there are a number of outlying
precincts yet not heard from. 1T re-
quires but a simple majority. not a
two-thirds vote as in bond issues. D.
In the cities Of Canton, Massillon and
Alliance the majority in favor of 1t was
large, but there is surprise manifested
at the vote in the rural districts. Every
township except Plain outside of Can
ton, Perry and Lexington showed a de-
cided majority against the tax PROPOSE
ton, This is thought to be due to the
fact that the people throughout the
county were not posted as to the true
conditions existing, evidently going up
on the presumption that the statements
made had been exaggerated.
A SURPRISING VOTE.
Canton's vote was surprisingly large
in favor OF the tax. This is doubtless
due to the agitation through the news
papers and the fact that many Of the
citizens were familiar with the situa-
ton. In number of the churches also
last Sunday the ministers preached on
the subject. The vote in the city was
1924 for and 1862 against. Alliance
gave 1883 for and S02 against. Mas
sillon's vote was 1,349 for and 1047
against. These three cities gave all the
majorities, with the exception of Plain
township, which voted s in favor.
AS returns came in from time to
time the majority in favor was cut
down, but 1t is evident that unless the
vote in the precincts not yet reported
is unanimously against the proposition,
II has carried.
The vote in detail SO far as received
Is given below. The figures are not Of
fetal. The official returns will not be
opened by the city board OF elections
until Wednesday and it may be a day
later before complete returns can be
given.

The election in Canton, Monday, was
hotly contested. The result is a mixed
victory. The Democrats elected three
Of the seven members for city council
and succeeded in electing Martin J. Ho-
gan for water works trustee. On this
latter contest the greatest interest CEN
tered, and Hogan's election means that
Louis b. Ohliger and James ID. Barry
will be retained at the head of the wa
ter works department and the plans
that have been made for the bettering
of the service in the city will be car
ried lut.
The council will again be tie, but
the Republicans will be able to organ
ize it with the aid of the mayors vote.
There was some hope that the Demo-
Gratis would succeed in electing the
councilman in the Seventh ward, and
hot contest was made. Had this been
accomplished, it would have given a
majority in that body.
While candidates were nominated
for the school board, the Democrats
made no fight along that line, and the
result was the Republican nominees
were elected by about the normal Re-
publican majority.
