LEADING COAL STATE
viii BE West Virginia. Says Thomas
Haggerty.

West Virginia is destined to be
the greatest coal-producIng state in
the Union in a few years" says
Thomas Haggerty of Reynoldsville,
national organizer for the United
Niue Workers in the state he speaks
Of Figures are given by Mr.. Hag
gerty to back up his assertion about
West Virginia. At present that
state is third in production of btu
minous coal, ranking first and Iii
uois second. pennsylvania may
produce 100000 tons yearly to
West Virginia's 100000 tons,
nearly three times as large an
amount, but West Virginia has the
field to work in, has 10 more square
miles of coal area than your state.
The natural result that years will
bring about, all things equals shat
the state with the greatest coal area
will produce the most coal.'

been the law ever since the free school

mistake in the law is that this board
grades the certificates. This should
be left for the County Superintendent
to do. so per cent OF the grade of
each certificate should depend upon
the teachers work in the school room
and no one is competent to decide this
except the uperintendent. Some OF
the best teachers make failures in ex-
animation.

FRANCHISE Is SECURED
INDIANAPOLIS & NORTHWESTERN
WILL ENTER CRAwFORDSvILLE.
w. s. Reed, Secretary of the Com
pany, Gives Details of the New
Electric Line.

w. S. Reed secretary of the Indianapolis
is constructing the line between Indianapo-
lis and Charlottesville and to Lafayette, re-
turned from Charlottesville yesterday, hav-
ing secured the last franchise required to
complete the system. This was the fran
chse for the right to enter the streets of
Charlottesville. The Northwestern has had
its most stubborn opposition at this place
because of the interests in the Consolidated
Traction Company in which A. F. Ramsay
and w. S. Van Cleave, of Charlottesville,
are interested. The Consolidated Traction
Company was organized by Edward Haw-
kins, of this city, and is composed of the
Indianapolis & Lafayette and the Indian
apolis, Lebanon & Charlottesville roads.
The contest for the right of way in Craw-
louisville was a hot one The Northwest
ern triumphed at meeting of the Coun-
Gil Monday night, when by a vote of five
to three the company's franchise was
passed. The Northwestern deposited GER
titled check for $500, payable to the city,
as a guarantee that 1t would lay one mile
of track in the city within one year; gave
a bond of 81 coo that il would save the
city harmless from damages. These de-
tails were all carried out yesterday.
With this last terminal facility settled
Mr.. Reed announced last night tnat work
Oh the Charlottesville division of the road
would be pushed. The company has en-
ployed force of men for making the grades
and promises to have a line in operation
between this city and Charlottesville by
fall. Work is now progressing so that IN
the early summer the line as far as Leb-
anon, and perhaps as far as Frankfort,
will be in use. By fall it is also hoped
to have the service to Lafayette begun.
This service means a limited express such
as is now operated by the Union Traction
Company between here and Muncie.
While the Northwestern officials will not
say so, it is understood that the completion
of the line to Charlottesville is not its end.
In the spring of 1904 the extension of the
line thirty miles to Attica to the mineral
springs is contemplated. This extension
will also bring the line into the coal fields,
but there is no intention, at least there is
none now, the officials say, to operate a
road to the coal fields.
Mr. Reed said last night that an open
spring would enable the company to ad-
vance it's work rapidly, and that If such
| was the case there would be little doubt
| of the northwestern cities as far as La
| fayette being connected with the capital
| with fine a system as the Union Traction
Company.

FRANK ID. SHUTS IN TOWN.
He Is Candidate for a Place on Com
mission to Codify Laws.

Frank B. Shuts, of Aurora, is at the En-
glish, and it is understood he is here TO
push his candidacy for appointment as one
of the members of the commission to COM
pile and codify the corporation laws of In
diana. Mr.. Shuts is somewhat reticent
about his plans, but from his friends it was
learned that he is candidate for the ap-
pointment.
The codifying commission was created by
the Legislature just adjourned. the law
providing that the Governor shall appoint
two commissioners and a secretary, who,
with the secretary of state, shall constitute
the commission. The commissioners will
receive salaries of $1,000, while the secretary
will receive $500
Mr.. Shuts is one of the most prominent
young lawyers of Indiana, and he has
strong backing in his candidacy. He is a
graduate of De PAW University and the
De Paw School of Law, and has been prac-
ticing law for some twelve years. His
friends regard him as splendidly equipped
for such work as the commission will do,
and they are working actively in his be-
half.
Mr.. Shuts was a candidate for the NOM
ination for Lieutenant Governor before the
last Republican state convention, and he
made an aggressive campaign that made
him one of the leaders in the race He en-
tered the fight comparatively unknown out
side his own immediate section of the State,
and the showing he made was considered
remarkable under the circumstances.
