OHIO REPUBLICANS.

for Governor.

wv Wv - ssOss o.
Collmbn., g. HAY a6.-Col. Myron
T. Herriok was renominated for gov
ernor Of Ohio by reclamation.
In accepting the nomination, Gov.
Herrick paid q warm tribute to Presi.
dent Roosevelt and his policy. Dur.
ing his speech he also severely con.
uemned the professional Lobbyist.
"The people Of Ohio, in the making
Of their laws" he said, "are entitled
to the best judgment Of their represen.
tatives in the general assem- IDLY, as we'll
as that Of their chief executive, and
they are entitled to this Judgment free
and untrammeled by any opportunities
from special interests. 1t 10 subversive
Of the basic principles upon which
American institutions are founded to
permit few men to direct or control
legislation. I must not be understood
az critioizing those who appear before
legislative committees in proper and
legitimate ways to advocate or oppose
legislation, for in this way the general
assembly is often very materially aided
in its work. But the professional lob.
BY should 60, and the general assent bly,
Of Ohio must be free from it's interfer-
ence. purpose to recommend to the
next general assembly such action as
will forever clear the chamber of the
senate and house and the capitol itself
Of this baneful influence"
Other nominations were:
Lieutenant governor, Gen. A. l..
Harris.
Judge Of the supreme court, william
G. Davis.
Attorney general, Wade Ellis.

much PROPERTY INVOLVED
IN GRUBSTAKE DECISION

Seattle, May ga recent decision
In the superior court Of Spokane coun-
ty gives to Worthington Belden, of Sc
attic, and John Firch half interest in
three coal and iron companies in the
Nicola coal region. The suit was
brought by these men against 8. An.
drew Hartman, whom they grubstaked
some time ago and sent out prospect
ing. Tho agreement under which Hart
man undertook the work was that he
should have half Of what he located
and that the men supplying him with
the means Of conducting the enterprise
should have the other half.
Hartman's trip into the Nicola re-
gion resulted in the finding Of two
claims, according to his report to Bel
den and Erich. These be divided az
per agreement. It was later discovered
that while prospecting for these claims
he discovered several others, which he
had not mentioned to the other parties
to the contract.
Injunctions were at once iesued en-
joining Hartman against disposing Of
any Of the property, and the case went
to court. Proof was secured showing
that at the time the contract was
drawn up between the parties Hartman
had no coal lands, and that three cor
porations In which he was later inter-
ested involved coal lands which were
secured while working under the agree
ment with Belden and Firch. Over
e20, 900 in stock bad been sold from
one Of the companies alone.
The court appointed Horace Kimball
referee to take the accounting. The
stock involved 10 tied mp and will be
divided between the parties. Various
other groups Of COAL claims not yet in
oorporated will also be divided under
the same direction.
The case decided involved the fol-
lowing incorpoxatedoompanies: West
ern Coal and Iron Company, Of Taco
ma; the Nicola Coal and Coke Comps-
ny, and the British Columbia Goal
Company. Their aggregate value 10
many Thousands Of dollars.

followed for the greater part Of tho
evening. Mr.. Takahira called at the

received official advices Of the over

victory.

The conference Of Mr.. Takahirva at
the White House last night was not
generally known here. At the inter-
ested embassies and legations during
the evencing the opinion was firmly
expressed that President Roosevelt
would undoubtedly lead the neutral

peace. In last nights conference it il
thought that the presidents first object
was to ascertain on what basis Japan
could discuss the question Of peace.

There il nothing to clearly indicate

it is suggested from one source that
the Tokyo government IL still waiting
to hear from Admiral Rojestvensky' q
feet by way Of Vladivostok before
announcing to what extent it's feet has

The news Of the disaster has caused

some surprise. u.
Admiral Togo Immediately started
at full speed around the north Of Tsu

he saw the Russians coming in two
columns. He then brought a terrific
fire to bear n the flank Of the Port
column, and AZ the Russians fell into
disorder he forced them steadily east
