To The Author Of Dixie"
Proposed By Dramatic Club
Play To Be Given And Funds
To Be Raised
For A Suitable Monument
For Daniel D. Emmett

The Mt Vernon Dramatic. club is
making a determined effort 20 pro-
vide a suitable monument in this city
to the memory of the late Daniel De.
catur Emmett the author Of Dixie.
IL is. the plan Of the club to raise
approximately the sum of $3.50 for the
erection ORA .handsome marble shaft
with a bronze bust and # has prac-
tically been decided that the .monu.
mont vii be placed on the grass plot
on the. public square in some suitable
location.
In order that the people OF Mt Yer
non may know what the Dramatic
club is doing along this line, il might
be well to announce that there is in
one of the banks OF the city the sum
of $50 from a former fund which was
started for an Emmett memorial. The
members of the club have been as
sured that this will be turned over to
their fund. There is the sum of $50
in the treasury of the Mt. Vernon
Dramatic club and contribution of
$25 has been forwarded to the Dram
attic club by Mr.. David Gibson of
Cleveland who is very much interest
ed in the Emmett memorial
1t is the expectation of the club to
raise. if possible. most of the money
in the city so that it can truly be
called a Mt Vernon Emmett Memoir
ial
In order to further increase the
funds it has been determined by the
Dramatic club to give a play at the
Grand Theatre on the evenings of
Tuesday and Wednesday, April 16 and
II. On these dates a three-act com
edy will be produced, entitled, "A
Scrap of PEPPER" Popular prices will
prevail for this attraction and the
members of the club hope to realize
neat sum which will be placed in
the treasury of the Emmett Memorial
Fund,
The members OF the Mt. Vernon
Dramatic club realize that a move,
ment was started once before for the
purpose OF raising funds for the erec-
ton of a suitable monument to the
late Daniel Emmett, and which for
some reason was a failure, but the
members of the club have made a de-
termined effort to carry out the plan
which they have in view, which means
a handsome monument to the late au-
thor of Dixie"
Anyone interested in the matter or
desiring to offer subscriptions for any
amount should address The Mt YER
non Dramatic Club.

IRE,
Destroyed Barn At Utica
Was Set On Fire

Utica, April s-Utica was again
visited by fire, as Monday night, about
10 o'clock, the barn in the rear of the
Watson property was practically de-
stroyed together with couple of wag-
ons and some harness. That the fire
was of incendiary origin was appar-
ent. as two horses, which had been
earlier placed in the barn for the
night, were found on Main street, and
they were wet from the rain, showing
that they had been exposed to the
weather for some time, having eyi.
IDENTIFY been released before the fire
was started The loss is about S4OO
partially covered by insurance. There
is no clue as to the perpetrators of
the act, The barn was part of whatiis
known as the old laundry and was
just in the rear of the Davenport ho-
tel and near Knoth Brothers restaur.

Board May Compel City To
Install Such Plants
Water Supply Must Also Be
The Very Best
The Substance Of The De.
CisiOD OF The Court

The Bense act Clothing the state
board of health with power to com
pei municipalities to purify their
water supplies by the installation of
sewage disposal and filtration plants
and to prevent the pollution of the
streams OF the state was held consti.
tutional by the supreme court of Ohio
Tuesday says the Columbus Dispatch
This decision is OF far-reaching i'm
portance. 1t affects every community
i'll the state. The court reverses the
decision of the Darke county circuit
court, which held that the act was
unconstitutional and void because OF
exempting from its operation the mu-
inequalities of the Ohio river.
The circuit court held that this ex-
emption deprived the act of uniform
operation and, hence, renders it class
legislation and thus unconstitutional.
The state contended that this exemp.
ton was necessary, West Virginia
and Kentucky have jurisdiction over
the river to the Ohio shore.
The syllabus of the supreme court,
in the decision holding the act to be
sound, says; The act. of the general
assembly passed April. z, 1908, entitled
an act to authorize the state board of
health to require publication of sew,
age and public water supplies and
protect streams against pollution is
valid and constitutional exercise of
the police power OF the state" The
opinion of the court was written by
Judge Maurice Fl. Donahue. II is a
lengthy one.
The question of the constitutional
ity OF the law was raised by the city
of Greenville, Darke county, when it
sought to prevent the state board
from compelling it to install plants
to purify it's sewage and water. The
common pleas court upheld the act,
and the city carried the case to the
circuit court, which, as indicated, re.
versed the lower court and declared
the law invalid. The case has been
in the courts more than three years.
During its tendency the board has
been unable TO enforce any Of it's or
ders Opinions of the attorney gener-
al respecting the powers of the board
have also been held in abeyance.
These opinions will be released now
and the board will proceed without
loss of time to call for compliance
with its orders.
The decision makes absolutely clear
the powers of the state board of
health. In matters affecting the pub.
lis health it's orders are supreme. AS
In the cases involving the constitution.
ality of the women's nine-hour EN-.
plOyment law and the workmen's com.
pensation act, the court refused to
hold the Bense act constitutional be-
cause in it's scope 1t did not include
everything. Such omissions In laws
are, therefore, in the judgment of the
court, not fatal defects.
