Drainage Commissioners Buaily
Engaged in ApportioniAg
Cost of Proposed Work.

| The board Of commissioners of the
new drainage district have been busy
the past two weeks making the assess
ments on all the land in the district.
The field surveys and Investigations
have progressed sufficiently SO that
approximate figures can be used as a
basis in making the assessments.
The Supreme Court has already laid
down rule by which the commission
ers are guided in apportioning the
costs of the proposed work, and in ac-
cordznce with this rule it il necessary
for the commissioners to determine
not only what lands ara to benefit
from the drains, but also what lands
are contributing seepaee and per-
collation. waters to the district. tn
commissioners must - upon evsEy
individual pieCe of land In the district
and determine how .mUch each tract
will be benefnsd.
The amount of water contributed by
the various tracts is largely . matter
of engineering investigation, but the
fixing Of benefits depends upon the
judgment of the commissioners The
board has an immense task ahead of i {
mNviewiRg zach. tractsof land, for ther E
are over 700 individual holdings in tt lie
district.
Realizing that disastrous dAAys in
getting the report approved by the
court would mean SERIOUS loszss to the
district, the board is making every EFF
fort to reach a settlement W1iA many
of the largest interests be6nse the re-
port is filed.

LEAGUE TO BE BIG
ISSUE IN CAMPAIGN
Cox Delays Work on Acceptance
Speech.

OPOCSA'
Columbus, Ohio, July 13.-GOv.
James M Cox, Democratic nominee
for President, will not begin work
on his speech of acceptance until he
has completed his conference with
President Wilson, scheduled for Sum
day morning at 1890 o'clock, it be-
came known to-day.
= Both Mr.. Cox and his running
mate, Assistant Secretary of the Ma
w Franklin d. Roosevelt, admitted
yesterday that the one big issue upon
which they will conduct their cam
paign is to be the League Of Nations.
1t is believed that probably
much of the message they will carry
to the voters with the opening of
their campaign next month will
have been dictated within the White
House.
Mr.. Roosevelt will join Gov. Cox
in Washington. They will visit the
President together and will leave
Washington for Dayton Sunday even
ing. The two candidates plan on
reaching the Ohio city in time for
Monday conference with Chairman
Cummings of the National Commit
tee. They will attend, Of course, the
National Committee session a week

ton residence, Trails End,
i Gov Cox will visit in the capital
with Democratic leaders, His meet
ing with President Wilson will be
his first since March Of last year,
when he attended the White House
gathering of governors and mayors
just before President Wilson de-
parted for Europe the second time.
1t was suggested at the State
house here to-day that the notifica-
ton ceremony might be expected to
take place in Dayton about the first
week in. August. While Columbus
residents have urged that notifica-
tion take place on the capitol
grounds here, it was pointed out |
that precedent has been for notifica-
ton to occur at the candidates
home.
The attention of Gov. Cox was
called to Senator Harding's promise
of short" speech of acceptance of
the nomination. He noted that the
Republican candidate had expressed
the belief that newspaper readers
would give attention to short adj
dress, but would be discouraged in
to lack of interest by long one.
