A meeting of the men interested in
the new street railway from Cleveland
to Wooster here last week brought
out the most optimistic assurances yet
had in regard to the building of the
line. The condition of the various
funds to be raised at all the towns
along the route for surveying and
engineering was recently improved
and there is every assurance that
each will subscribe it's desired quota,
according to officials. At present all
the right -of-way between Cleveland
and Wadsworth, except through one
farm, has been secured. WadswortE
is the only larger town whose funds
for surveying and engineering fall.
short of the mark, several hundred
dollars being lacking at this time.

PEANUT POLITICS
ENTERS 0. S. U.

The political interference with the
conduct of affair. at the Ohio State
university threatens the worst possi-
bic results for the future of Ohio's
great educational institution. Especi-
ally is this true of the agricultural
department, VIII re in collusion with
President Thompson, Governor Willis
appears to have reached through the
meanable board of trustees, to Sc
cure the demotion Of Dean Homer C.
Price, Republican, whose crime
was that he had been honored by
Governor Cox in spite of his poll
tics. Now Dean Price will resign
the place he made and has held for
fourteen years and of which he has
made success. The political DOM
nation and interference will not
have reached its worst until not
only is the agricultural department,
ruined, but every branch Of the uni
versity deprecated. AS a result of
the scandal which is growing, par
ents are writing their sons in the
agricultural college to close up their
work as they feel the best results can
not be had from an institution of learn
ing where pretty politics is allowed to
interfere with matters of education as
in the case of actions since Governor
Willis assumed Office.
AS the days pass and Dean Price
is denied the reason for the action
taken against him, the reason is be-
ing supplied by others. Appearing
first is the jealousy Of Presi-
dent Thompson, whose desire is for
all things great and small, it fur
ther is shown that Governor Willis
took advantage of that jealousy to
secure the automatic removal Of the
dean from the state agricultural COM
mission.
Other things that the educational
facilities Of the state are threatened,
and if the present tendency Of the
state government and the Ohio
State university management is al
lowed to continue, the farming in
terests Of the state will lose such
support as is now coming to the
agricultural interests from the fed
eral government through the agen-
cies and economies fostered by the
preceding state. administration.

w. A. McCurdy, state school in
spector and supervisor Of school CEN
tralization work, who has made nu-
merous visits to this and adjoining
counties to make addresses on school
subjects, will be ousted from the

provision for his salary.
Opposition to the spread Of cen-
tralized schools rather than economy
is given as the real reason for omit
ing an appropriation for salary Of

Of the finance committee are opposed
to Capitalization and also to some Of

TO TEST A VETO
Contends Governor Hays Had No
Constitutional Right to Inter
fere With His Department.

Little Rock, June ia suit
was filed in Pulaski chancery Fri
day afternoon by Attorneys c. c.
Reid and H. L. Norwood to test
the validity of Gov. Hays veto
of the item of $4,000 for postage
for the department of agriculture.
1t is alleged that the veto is void
because no proclamation was is
sued by the governor setting forth
his reasons for Withholding appro-
val. 1t will also be alleged that
such action was not contemplated
by the constitution, and that the
alleged veto is an unwarranted in
vasion by the executive of other
departments of the government, and
improper assumption of power to
regulate the appropriation of mon
ey by the legislature. 1t opens the
whole question of the governors
power to veto appropriation items
in bills passed by the Legislature.

YOUTH IS DROWNED
in BRIGHTON DITCH
Lawrence Jones, Son of John Jones,
Lost Life Yesterday Afternoon
Body Recovered.

(From Mondays Daily Press)
Lawrence Jones, aged about IS
years, son of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Jones, residing on Rowland Island,
near Brighton, was drowned about
twelve thirty yesterday afternoon
in what is known as the Brighton
ditch, at a point about one-quarter
of mile south of the trestle. The
ditch was full of water and at the
point where the lad was drowned it
was between fifty and seventy-five
feet wide. Young Jones, in com
pany with several boys from his
neighborhood, was in bathing in
the ditch. He was not a practiced
swimmer and hence had not ven
tured very far from the shore. His
companions think he became fright
ened in some manner, probably los
ing confidence in himself. At any
rate, they observed him struggling
in water not much over his head.
One boy attempted to rescue him.
Jones held to the lads foot and
came near pulling him out into the
stream. Another of the boys who
sought to save Jones was also pull
ed a short distance into the stream.
Young Jones, evidently losing con-
seriousness, finally loosened his hold
upon his companions foot and was
seen no more. Searching parties
soon began diving and dragging for
the body and at seven o'clock yes
terday evening they recovered it a
