VIDE SEARCH FOR
A STOLEN HORSE
MAsslLLoN MANS RIG STILL MYs.
TERioUsLY MISSING.
Authorities for Miles About Have
Been Notified to Watch For
Stolen Property.

The horse and buggy stolen from /.
D. Snyder of Massillon are still mystic
riously missing, although Chief Ertle
has notified the authorities for many
miles roundabout to keep lookout
for the missing rig. Chief Ertle and
Mr.. Snyder returned to Massillon from
New Berlin, Uniontown and other
places north of Canton, in which di-
rection it was thought that the thief
had driven.
The stranger may nave planned this
robbery beforehand, Judging from the
story of Mr.. Snyder, who says that the
man appeared at the Snyder farm east
Of Richville, Friday morning, and
asked for work. Mr.. Snyder's father,
who operates the farm, was near Can
ton with his threshing machine at the
time, and the younger man so in
formed the stranger. The location of
the elder Mr.. Snyder was explained to
the stranger, who said he would go
there and apply for a job When |. d.
Snyder hitched up q horse and buggy
to drive to Massillon, the stranger
asked to be driven here, too. The
horse was high spirited animal and
""idently impressed the stranger as a
valuable animal. The theft was COM
mitted quickly and with dispatch, the
stranger leaving Snyder at the Hess
Snyder foundry only few minutes
before the discovery of the theft was
made. Since then not a trace of the
missing horse and buggy has been
found.

SALARY LAW EXPECTED
FOR COUNTY OFFICIALS

A salary law for county officials is
expected to be passed by the next leg
islature before March /, according to a
dispatch from Dayton, which says on
the subject:
1t is we'll known that candidates for
the Legislature Of both parties have
been committed in their respective
counties all over the state, before they
were nominated, to a bill providing
salaries for county officers and abolish
ing the fee system. 1t is also well
known that Auditor of State w. ID.
Guilbert and others at Columbus have
been consulted relative to the drawing
up of this instrument, and that it will
be introduced early in the session.
Such bills have been introduced in for
mer sessions, but there were never so
many members committed to them as
are reported at this time.
1t is said that the scale for the high
est Offices in Cincinnati and Cleveland
is $4,000, in Columbus and Toledo $4,-
500; in Dayton, Canton, Akron and
Youngstown, $4,000, and in a gradual
ing scale less in other county seats, ac-
cording to the size of the county.

GOAL BY MORGAN

wha & Michigan railroad, all Of which
roads are under the control of the
Morgan syndicate. That will not be
carrying coal to Newcastle, but the
consumers will be compelled to pay
tribute for profits on coal and for
transportation to the Morgan syndi-
cate, thus making a double profit. 1t
is claimed that the new company will
be ready for operation by August l.
The only opposition to the gigantic
enterprise will be a few Independent
operators headed by Thomas and Ed
ward Johnson of Columbus. These
gentlemen assert that Morgan & Co.
have not approached them on the
question of joining in the syndicate,
but there is no telling when that will
be attempted. The independent oper-
ators do not look on the new COM
pany with complacency, for they fully
realize that it means trouble all along
the line, not only for themselves, but
for consumers of coal.
The company will absorb. the Sunday
Creek Coal Co., the Continental Coal
Co., the Buckeye Coal & Railroad Co.
and the Hooking G. Kanawha Coal &
Iron Co., together with their cars and
docks, and John II. Winder of this city
will be the president.

it will be presented in response to a
popular demand, especially from the
rural districts. II is said that it will
provide for tax inqusitor in each
county who will be deputy under the
auditor and on a salary without any
fees, percentages or perquisites what
ever.
1t is stated that candidates for coun-
ty offices in several of the large couh-
ties have been disnosed to get off of
the tickets since they have heard of
the movement for salary law. If
they make the canvass in such large
and close counties as Cuyahoga, Frank

spend more in getting the Office than
they would get out of it under a sal
ary law. .. r -.

Columbus, o., Aug. 6.-The owners
of coal lands have been little slow in
creating a syndicate to control the fuel
of the country, but it is taking shape
and is now coming very fast. The
magnitude Of an enterprise of that
kind is great and the results far reach
ing. For several years the beef trust
and the coal oil trust have been, and
now the fuel trust is to be put in oper-
alton. That means that every person
who uses fuel to heat his home, every
wheel that turns for the purpose of
manufacturing, must pay tribute to
that octopus.
The new enterprise is to be financed
by J. Pierpont Morgan & Co. of New
York, and will control lands in Ohio
and West Virginia, and they number
in their possession the best bitumin-
Gus coal lands on earth. While the
exact number of acres under their con-
troll cannot at this time be accurately
ascertained, yet II is known that they
will exceed 100000 acres in the states
named, and that more than S25,000,00
will be needed to handle the company.
The combine will be run in connec-
tion with the Hooking Valley railway,
the Ohio Central lines and the Kama

of the present visitation.
Fti the first time in the history of
this state two men are confined in a
Louielana parish jail as prisoners Of

are Captain Joseph C. English and
Arthur Wallace, captain and engineer
of the Tipsey, small gasoline launch,
which was converted into guuboat

English and Wallace are held in 1,750
bonds pending trial on charges of pre-
venting properly licensed tugboat

ish. Gov. VaIdaman has appointed
special counsel to defend his men, and
the case promises to involve the United
States government in a dispute with
the state of Louisiana, Gov. Blanch-
ard wired District Attorney WiIkin,
sustaining the latter's course, and urg-
ing him to resort to every technicality
to convict the men. The Tipsey is held
as a prize of war. Gov. Blanchard will
make demand for indemnity on Gov
Vardaman, and If the money is not
paid the Tipsey will be sold 10 the

health authorities succeeded in pre-
venting the disease from spreadint
The death rate is still less than 20

accurate figures on the number OF
