SEESE
May Win Plum
lie Seeks.
His Friends Are Talking
Confidently.
And He Is Himself Pleased With
Situation.

The effort Of Representatives. Seese,
of Summit county, to sidetrack the
Dick gubernatorial train SO that his
show of getting the nomination for
State School Commissioner would be
enhanced, both being from the same
county, is now finding Its reward.
Since Mr.. Seese gave out his "infor-
nation" that General Dick would not
be a candidate for Governor, the
friends of the latter have been busy
searching out a candidate for State
School Commissioner in opposition to
Seesc. They have found him in the
person of Superintendent zellers Of
the Findlay public schools, prorni-
nent educator of the State. and one
who has been active in institute work
for several years past. If General
Dick concludes to be n candidate for
the Governorship, and it is understood
that he will make his intention known
Immediately following the November
election. Supt. zellers viii have the
backing Of the Hanna wing of the
party in his candidacy for School Com.
missioner.
The foregoing from the Columbus
Dispatch may be in some respects
true, but it is nevertheless a fact that
Mr.. Seese is we'll satisfied with the out
lookin his candidacy for the school
commissioner nomination. His friends
take little stock in the talk of any
opposition to him, at this time, at least.
Indeed his prospects are brighter than
ever, it is said. 1t is also true rhat
Hon. Geo. w. Sieber's candidacy for
the Attorney General nomination is
also attracting considerable attention
throughout the State. A Columbus
special says: Wade Ellis, assistant
corporation counsel of Cincinnati, is
a candidate for the Republican noni-
nation for the Office of Attorney Gen
eral to be made at the next Republi.
can State convention.
Another of the code makers, Smith
w. Bennett, special counsel in the
Attorney Generals Office, is a candi.
date for the nomination sought by Mr..
Ellis. Among the other candidates
are Representative Guerin, of San
dusky, and former Senator Sieber, Of

Especial Correspondence.)

Columbus, O., Sept. 1.-THE visit of
representatives of the various Library
Boards to the Special committee of the
House during the week, is the first
which has been productive of definite
results. The committee went into eX-
ecutive session Wednesday afternoon
and this was the first ma tier to come
under its notice. 1t was unanimously
decided that public Libraries should
be kept free from all political influ-
ences and that the Nash code should
be so amended as to keep libraries
away from the Boards of Public Ser
vice. There will be separate board
but whether this is to be created by
the City Council or the Board of Edu-
cation has not been determined.
There will also be separate Health
Board but in all probability this will
be a creation of the Board of Public
Service There is a strong inclination
upon the part Of the House to adopt
so much of the federal plan as to place
the departments of law, accounts and
public safety under separate heads,
with elective offices but there are evi-
donces that the Senate will insist upon
IL Board of Public Service, in which
case the Health Board will be crea-
tre of this body. This will leave
the department. of health within the
influence of political parties and fac.
tions.
In Its executive session, the com.
mittee also considered other matters
pertaining to the code, but there was
no definite action taken except as &c
slight omissions and small insertions
to make the bill more clear and ex,
plicit.
The big attraction OF the day was
the appearance of Mayor Tom L
Johnson, who talked to the commit
tee for an hour upon the subject OF
franchises. Mr.. Johnson's speech wa.
listened to attentively, although h,
labored under slight disadvantage

Tamaqua. Pa, Sept. 11.-All the re-
gion was on tip-toes last night and
early this morning, due to the report
that a notice offering concessions, If
the men return to work Monday,
would be posted at the collieries this
morning. But the big sombre mon.
sters stood as silent as ever. No no.
tice was published.
The leaders throughout this valley
place little credence In these rumors
and have given up hope Of an inter
vention in the struggle before Christ
mas. Galleries No. ~ and No. 4, are
working and 1t is said that nearly
800 tons of mined coal were shipped
to New York yesterday. This morn
ing the non-union men went to work
unmolested. The soldiers remained
at their headquarters at Manila Park.
A committee Of citizens representing
the Peoples Alliance left here this
morning for Harrisburgwhere they will
confer with Governor Stone, with refer
ence to calling an extra session Of the
Legislature to pass compulsory arbi-
tration law, revoke charters of rail

Scranton, Pa, Sept. 11.-"The miners
strike will never be settled by arbi-
tration or any concessions granted by
the operators. The men must 60 back
to the mines on unconditional terms.
This the operators have made up their
minds to for once and all. After this
thing is ended there will be no more
strikes, for either the operators or the
miners will be the masters of the stu
alton, and l think we have the right
to boss our own works"
This is the answer made this morn
ing by an official of a big Nanticoke
mine to your correspondents query as
to the chances of settlement of the
strike, while waiting for a train to
take him to the works.
The rumors of concessions to be
made by the operators which prevailed
the past two days are dissipated today
and quite a noticeable reactionary
feeling has set in again from the fact
that no good has yet. come of all the
efforts of politicians, financiers and
others to end the agony.

This makes eight mines Of the Del

PURE WATER.
Youngstown Has Taken Steps In
That Direction.

Youngstown, o., Sept. 1.-THE first
move made by the city for pure wa
ter supply was the purchase by the
waterworks trustees Of eight and one
half acres of land for 1900 for the
erection of filtration plant. Experts
are at work figuring out the specifica-
tioDs for huge flltering plant with a
capacity Of from 100000 to 10000
900 gallons of water. The average
consumption Of water by the city per
day is between 2,500OOO and 5000, 900
gallons. At present the city is using
the Mahoning river water without FL
tration. 1t passes various large plants
before the water is finally taken from
the river and the quality Of drinking
water is bad.

SETTLED.
No More Trouble
With Duncan.

The fight of Sanitary Policeman
Hoye and the city against Adam Dun
can, upon the charge that he is con.
Quoting his soap plant in such manner
that 1t is a nuisance, has been ended
at least, practically so. There may
be some legal technicalities to COM
plete. but an agreement between the
parties has been entred into, by
which Mr.. Duncan will remove his
plant from within the city limits by
Jan. 1, 1908. 1t is also agreed that
the most offensive departments Of the
manufacture of soap will be eliminat-
ed during the remainder of the stay
of the plant in this city.
Trouble between the city and Mr..
Duncan has continued for long time,
and several actions against him have
been started in both the Mayors
court and the higher courts.
On Thursday forenoon Mr.. Duncan
and Sanitary Policeman Hoye, with
their attorneys, appeared before the
City Commissioners and discussed the
situation, with a view to reaching a
final settlement in the case. Col Hoye
was in favor of having work at the
plant abandoned as soon as possible,
but Mr.. Duncan wanted to continue
until late in March. Finally COM
promise was reached on this point, al
lowing operations to continue until
the first Of the year, provided the
more offensive departments are elm
mated.
Some time ago Mr. Duncan pur-
chased some and outside the city
some distance from the northwestern
boundary line, along the Little Cuya-
hoga river. To OBTAIN entrance to
and from the place it became neces-
sary to secure certain rights from the
State, by which a portion Of the tow
path along the canal could be used.
This right was obtained Dy Col. Hoye
from Mr.. w. NJ. Hiltabidle, who was
then superintendent of the Northern
division of the Ohio canal. Mr.. Dun
can awarded contracts for the con-
struction of plant, but when Mr..
Hiltabidle was succeeded as supei1n-
tendent of the canal by Mr.. Hatch,
the latter objected to allowing Mr..
Duncan the right to use the towpath
He stopped the contractors at work
on the plant, and the matter has been
resting for several months.
AS result of the agreement reached
Thursday, Mr.. Duncan will buy land
for the opening up of another en-
trance to the new location for his
plant, and construction of the plant
will be resumed.

SO In no uncertain terms. Said he:
THE present laws on the granting

make the establishing Of the compet-

worse. You are making it easier for

Especial Correspondence


Columbus, o., Sept. 11.-Reprcsen-
tative Stage, of the House Code CON-
mittee, offered proposition today to
establish in the code, a line of demark-
alton at 10000 for police courts. This
would establish police courts in nine
cities of the State, including
Akron, Canton and Youngstown.
1t is possible that the line
will be raised SO as to exclude Canton,
but the present intention is to estab-
lish a separate police court in Akron.
The Senate today passed the Roger
bill giving the Supreme court all the
jurisdiction it had prior to 1898. The
bill is correction of the Roycr act
of last spring which took away 10
per cent. of the jurisdiction Of the
court.
