Ronds Hard TO Sell.


The public service commission
has been compelled to take cogni.
zance of the present state of the
money market in prescribing the con.
fditions under which new securities OF
public service corporations may be
sold. New financing requirements OF
several corporations and their inabll-
ity to find market for their securf-
ties have brought them back to the
attention of the commission. The Big
Four railroad was given authority
over month ago to sell $1,57S,000
general mortgage bonds at not less
than 80 by the commission. 1t was
proposed to make extensive improve
ments with the proceeds. However,
the railroad company failed to find a
market for its offerings at the figure
fixed by the state authorities. 1t re-
ported that the proposition was hope
less. The commission after a per-
functory Investigation revised it's or.
der, permitting 80 to be accepted
The Washington Gas and Electric
Company of Washington c. H. re-
ported to the commission that it had
found it impossible to find buyer for
100000 in mortgage bonds bearing
8 per cent interest. The issue was
authorized some time ago but the
company had hunted in vain for a
market. The commission revised its
order in this case by authorizing 6
per cent interest to be paid upon the
bonds.

TO ASK STATE TO help
TUBERCULOSIS FIGHTERS TO
SEEK AID OF LEGISLATURE.
After Ten Years of Crusade Against
White Plague, Ohio Society Needs
Approximation to Extend Work.

Columbus,-Afterf fighting "the white
plague" for more than ten years with
volunteer oganization, the Ohio So
ciety for the Prevention of Tubercu-
losis will ask the state to take up the
work and devote part of its re-
sources to curbing the disease which,
reliable statistics show, kills more
than 1000 Ohioans annually.
In statement, DIR. Robert G. Pater-
son, executive secretary of the state
association, outlines the plans for the
proposed state division of tuberculosis,
to be conducted under the state board
Of health, and for which the legisla-
ture will be asked to appropriate $685.
600 year for two years.
A bill setting forth the detail Of the
plan has been drafted and approved by
the leading physicians and social work
ers OF the state and is being submitted
to the members of the coming legis.
lature.
If the appropriation is made, and in
dications are that it will be, the state
will carry on the work the state So
ciety has begun, extend it and conduct
campaign of education through the
newspapers and through exhibits to
teach the people means of preventing
and fighting the modern scourge.

Association Favors Edwards Bill.

association FaVors EDWARDS Bill.
Change in the present system of tax
assessment, as embodied in the Ed.
wards bill, which failed to pass the
legislature two years ago, was recon-
mended at the close of the annual ses.
sion of the Ohio Association of Coun.
ty Auditors meeting at the Hotel
Hartman. The proposed change would
abolish the Office of personal property
assessors, and, instead, provide dep.
uty county tax commissions which
would have charge of the assessment
for taxation of both real and personal
property. The county, instead of the
township, would become the unit of
taxation and the quadrennial assess
ment of real estate would be a thing
of the past.
Auditor r. ID. Alexander, of Ross
county, was elected president of the
association to succeed G. c. Meekison,
who retires next October as auditor
of Henry county. Other officers cho.
sen were: c. e. Steinbaugh, of Wood
county, vice president; A. B. Peckin-
paugh, Columbus, secretary; Auditor
Charles R. Gibson, of Noble county,
treasurer.

Hunters Bag Little Game.

Notwithstanding almost perfect
weather during the entire 20 days of
the 1912 hunting season, which closed
December 4th, less game was bagged
this fall by hunters than in previous
years, according to Secretary G. F..
Mahaffey OF the state fish and game
commission. Hunters have reported a
general dearth of quail, while other
game was more or less scarce.
Farmers in the southern part of the
state reported few quail in that sec
ton on account of severe hail storm
last summer during the nesting sea-
son, which destroyed thousands of
eggs An investigation by the fish and
game commission as to the real cause
of the scarcity of quail, however, is
likely, and moe stringent protection
may be urged at the coming session
of the legislature.
Few violations of the hunting laws
We're reported to the commission DUR
ing the open season. Violators of the
game laws, Mr.. Mahaffey. explained,
are generally those who are impatient
to start the season too early or those
who extend the season over the stat
utory period.

Michigan Law Is Model.

Michigan's mechanics lien law is to
be made the basis of legislation under
the new mechanics lien provision in
the constitution, if lumber interests
of the state, which were behind the
amendment have their way. A bill
embodying the principles of the Michi-
gan law has already been drafted and
bears approval of the Retail Lumber
mems association. 1t will be present
ed to the neSi general assembly, and
the lumber men hope to have the back
ing of the labor unions, builders ex-
changes of the large cities and build
ing and loan companies. The last
named are not yet committed to the
plan. In effect the Michigan law pro-
vides that no builder or owner can be
required to pay more than the con-
tract price for any work. 1t does not
protect the builder or owner against
claims until after the full contract
price has been paid and receipts OBJ
tanned from the contractors.

Trunk Lines Are Barred.

Although holding the stock of the
Akron and Barberton Belt Railway,
the Pennsylvania; Cleveland, Akron
and Columbus; Erie; Northern Ohio,
and Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Companies were refused permission to
enter as co-defendants in an action
now before the public utilities COM
mission, by which an effort is being
made to compel the belt line to estab-
lish interswitching connections with
the Akron, Cleveland and Youngstown
system.
The suit originally was brought by
the Akron, Cleveland and Youngstown
Company and shippers at Akron, who
desired facilities by which transfers
could be made from one road to the
other. While the commission now
has jurisdiction it is thought that if
the holding roads, which do an inter-
state business, became parties to the
defense, they might enter pleas that
the Belt Line is their terminal and
thus raise a question as to the COM
missions right to order a hearing

maintained, is evidenced by recent
bringing in of new wells by the bigger
supply companies. The Ohio Fuel Sup

Sugar Grove Station to the new Lau-
rel township field, which will give a
better supply. The Columbus Gas and
Fuel Co. has brought in a new 1885,

completion. The same company in
Licking county has new 1,250,000

the Arter farm has a new one good for
100000 cubic feet, and a small pro-
