Stock Up the Rivers.

Columbus, o., Sept. 17.-State
Fish and Game Warden John S.
Speaks planted a carload of young
fish in the Scioto, Olentangy,
Alum creek, Big Walnut and Big
Darby in Franklin county, Thurs
day. The fish were from the
London hatchery and were mostly
bass. At the same time consign-
ments of the same hatch were sent
to Athens, Licking, Delaware,
Fairfield and Ross counties and
planted in the streams.
A new hatchery for the propaga-
tion of bass has been established.in
Geauga county, and will soon be
producing fish for distribution in
the waters of the state. Gener al
Speaks says the demand for game
fish from hook-and-line sportsmen
is greater now than ever before.
The same people are vigilant
against the taking of fish by illegal
methods and the pollution of
streams 80 as to destroy the fish,
as reports made voluntarily by
them to the commission indicate.

Postmaster White Was There

JACKSONVILLE, o., Sept. 90
Quite crowd of notables, on
their way to the Miners Mass
convention stopped in this city
last Saturday forenoon, and spent
the time very pleasantly with
friends here. Congressman Albert
Douglas of the Eleventh District
and President William Green of
the Ohio Miners organization,
were in the crowd.
Mr.. Green is a candidate for
president of the national organiza.
tion of the United Mine Workers,
and his election is next to an
assured fact if we are to take the
expression of the Hooking Valley
miners as meaning anything, be-
cause they are almost unanimous
for Green.
Dennis Sullivan, who has no
opposition for the presidency of
the Ohio Miners organization,
and Jack Moore We're also here.
Mr.. Moore is also candidate, but
for the vice presidency of the or
ganization, and at this stage of
the game seems to have no opposi-
tion and it looks as if he could be
elected.
Percy Tetlow, candidate for
secretary treasurer of the Ohio
organization, was also in thu
crowd and while not as we'll known
as some of the others, is an able
fellow nevertheless. and no doubt
will make good if the miners see
fit to elect him to the office to
which he aspires.
Prosecuting Attorney l. NJ.
Foster and C. H. Bryson of
Athens, and John White of Lo-
gan, accompanied Congressman
Douglas in an automobile to
Buchtel and Murray City.

For Appearance Sake.

After advocating the central
bank in his Boston speech Presi.
dent Taft tried to keep his politi-
cal balance by favoring the postal
savings bank in his speech at Mil.
waukee.
That's the way Mr.. Taft worked
it on the tariff issue during the
campaign, he made one kind of
speech in the west and another
kind in the east.
Mr.. Taft's Milwaukee speech
seems to have been made with
view to keeping up the semblance
of political regularity because he
had much to say about keeping
platform pledges and fulfilling
campaign premises. He had heard
what the bankers assembled at
Chicago snid in criticism of his
postal bank proposition, and he
had something to say in reply but
he said nothing that offended
them or gives them the least cause
to fear that he would stand in the
way of restoring the central bank
which Andy Jackson found it
necessary, "by the eternal J, " to
smash when he was president,
Nobody expects President Taft
to back up his campaign utter
ances on postal banks with any
thing more substantial than words
such as he used in his Milwaukee
speech and may use elsewhere in
the west during his trans.national
trip. He must do something to
keep up the appearance of party
loyalty and adhesion to party
pledges as understood in the west
since he cannot cajole the west in
to approval of his double dealing
on tariff revision.

When Frank lectured, recently,
in a Northern Ohio town, some
reference was made to his we'll
known brother, Tom Dixon, Jr.,
(author of "Leopard Spots" ''The

Frank said he was first, last and
all the time lecturer, but if he
ever wrote a novel it would "knock

Farmers Institutes.

The state board of agriculture
has completed the list of munich
palities, through the state where
farmers institutes will be held
during the coming season.
Because of the action of the
legislature several years ago in be.

ance to institute work, it has be-
come extremely interesting to the
agriculturists of the state. The
board has not selected it's list of
institute lecturers as yet but will
in short time. Following this
the tedious work of dating the
speakers will be taken up.
The places where Institutes will
be held in Hooking and adjoining
counties are:
Hooking: Logan and Laurelville.

Injunction Dissolved.

Columbus, Ohio, Sept, 1.-THE
application of the Pomeroy Coal
Company, West Virginia con-
cern, doing a mining business in
Meigs County, this state, for a
writ of injunction against men,
bers of the United Mine Workers.
Union of that section, was this
evening refused by Judge John f.
Safer, of the Federal Court here.
The company is endeavoring to
operate on the open shop plan, and
asserts that the union miners are
intimidating it's employees. A pa
rsde through Pomeroy out to the
mine was cited as one of the acts
of intimidation. w. r.. Llewellyn,
of Middleport, non-union miner,
declared that he had been assault
ed. Judge Oliver Wright, of Lo-
gan, appeared for the defense and
won his case, the court holding
that no overt acts had been COM
mitted.

Fooled Again

Only year ago Mr.. Taft as
candidate for president was travel
ing about the country advocating
the establishment of postal say
ings banks. His platform con-
tanned plank favorlng the postal
savings bank as one of the policies
inherited from the Roosevelt adj
ministration.
Now Mr.. Taft is travelling about
the country as it's president and,
instead of advocating postal saw
ings banks demanded by him and
his platform a year ago, he is ad-
vising the restoration of a central
bank Of issue which neither Mr..
Taft nor his platform advocated
before his election.
Meanwhile the national conven-
tion of bankers at Chicago de-
clares that the people have been
carefully studying the question,
that there has been great change
of sentiment as result of the
campaign of education carried on
by the bankers association, which
now openly opposes the PROPOSE
tion.
Queer, isn't it, how policies
positively y advocated by the 6. o.
p. will not stand the test of care
full study one whole year, and how
the people who elect Republican
presidents vote for one thing and
get something entirely different
after election.
Put this along with the way the
people got fooled once more on
tariff revision. They'll learn some
time,

Important Meeting of the Board
of Education

Last Friday the Logan Board OF
Education met and instructed the
superintendent of the schools tc
hold half day sessions in enough
of the lower grades to provide for
one fifth grade now occupying a
room needed by the high school
and for one sixth grade now di-
vided and crowded into two other
sixth grade rooms. This measure
was adopted with some reluctance,
and only after it was found to be
the only one within the province
of the board that would at once
meet the difficulty.
Superintendent Grady made
some suggestions to the board
relative to the future of the
schools. He said:
"The present oyercrowded con-
dition of schools, the fact that
many of the pupils, in spite of the
best efforts of the board, are occu-
pying rooms, which to say the
least, are deleterious to the health
of pupils and teachers, make it
imperative that immediate steps
be taken by the board to bring the
matter to the attention of the
public and that some relief be ask
ed from existing conditions.
"There is good reason to believe
that the partially condemned build
ing now occupied by the high
school will be declared unfit for
use by the state and that depart
ment of the school be left without
quarters. Even should the state
fail to take this action, common
sense would condemn the building
for more modern structure.
CAT present there is a crying
need for buildings enough to ac-
comodate the high school and
twelve grades. Not only should
the immediate needs be considered
but it must be remembered that
the enrolment is increasing each
year and that consideration of
this increase must enter into a
solution of the problem. The en-
rollment in the high school for
the present year is an increase of
almost fifty per cent over that of
last year, and indications point to
a large increase for next year.
"Two practical ways of solving
the problem have after carefully
considering the situation, suggest
ed themselves to be: First The
erection of a building to be used
for high school purposes exclusive
ly, and two smaller buildings for
grade work.
Second. - The erection of u
building large enough to accomo.
date the high school and upper
grammar grades and another build
ing large enough for six grades,
80 constructed that it could be
readily enlarged.
The plan, not only from the
standpoint of the initial expense
involved, but from the standpoint
of administration and running ex-
penses would be the more FEAST
hla -
