the town of Belington, near Wheeling.
The project will provide work for 70
men for three months.
Meantime, more than score Of
other small-town projects have been
applied for and are awaiting sanction
at Washington. Sixteen of these are
being held up by the national admins
tration because of legal technicalities,
which question the ability of local COM
munities to issue bonds. in view of the
States constitutional inhibitions against
incurring debts. Both Gov. H. G..
Kump and Attorney General Homer A.
Holt have conferred with public works
officials in Washington in regard to the
technicalities. and it is expected that
court decision will be necessary before
the projects can be approved.
If and when the projects-most of
them are for water and sewer systems
are approved. WORK 1Or several uuIlOTeO
men would be provided.
Aside from the Belington authorize
tion, two other public works projects
have been authorized for West Virginia.
but they came through the War Depart
ment. They are the two dams and

weeks ago to the Dravo Construction
Co. of Pittsburgh.

Although the Hogsett dam is to be
in the Ohio River and is to be at Gal

employment to 500 men.
Thirty-one of West Virginia's lead
ing public utility corporations. including
railroads, natural gas and power COM
panies, have signifled thsir intentions
to pay their estimated" taxes on or

The utilities will make their advance
payments to help the State through its
financial difficulties, which became
acute when the Supreme Court nullified
the law that directed local communities
how to lay levies under the new tax
limitation amendment to the cOnStitu-
ton The courts decision left all of

~OLUMBUS Ohio. October 21-
Though former Gov. Vic Dona-
hey has made no statement as
~ to his political plans, those who
follow politics in the State feel
sure that he is to stage a comeback in
politics next year, and look for state
ment soon.
Appearing at Democratic meeting in
the Columbus municipal campaign this
week. Donahey surprised his hearers by
tearing into the political organization of
Gov. White who has just vastly in
creased his patronage by anneXing the
State Automobile Department to the
State Highway Department which was
already his. The Ex-Governor had pre-
viously given indication of his intention
to get back into politics and guessing
was INDUCED in as to whether he would
try for a fourth term in the Governor
office or come out for the nomination
for United States Senator AS he would
hardly care to offend Gov White if he
thought of succeeding him in the eXecu-
tive Office, the general conclusion is that
Donahey will try to get the Democratic
nomination for United States Senator
next year to make the race against Sem
ator S. D. Fess.
TruaX Considers Race.
Representative C. v. Truax has been
considering the senatorial nomination,
but if Gov. White and Former Gov.
Donahey get into that contest TruaX.
and probably all others, will withdraw

INDIANA CRIME
WAVE STARTS
VIGILANTE MOVE
Cor. McNutt Holds
5000 Armed Troops
Ready for Call.
BY HAROLD c. FEIGHTNER.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. October 21.-
Indiana has been Jared from its law
abiding complacency by series of out
RACES which have aroused the public
to a point where organization of vigi-
lante committees is seriously contem-
plated in some communities
What amounts to virtual reign of
terror has wide ramifications in the
criminal clement, which suddenly broke
lose with particular viciousness in the
State. So far the breaks" have been
with the lawless, rather than with the
law enforcement agencies.
One county, Sullivan, is under mar
tial law and is being patrolled by Ma
tional Guardsmen ordered there to halt
acts of violence growing out of mine
disputes. So terroriZed were the local
law enforcement agencies that the
grand jury was virtually convened at
the point of bayonets to investigate
rioting.
5000 WeIl-Armed Troops.
Gov. Paul v. McNutt. who ordered
the troops into the field, assured the
public in a recent radio address that
he has 5000 well-armed troops which
he will not hesitate to call If law en-
forcement breaks down. He has, how
ever. so far resisted efforts to induce
him to set up military courts, contend
ing that the regular law enforcement
agencies must be compelled to function.
A long series of desperate acts of Vio-
lence followed in the wake OF the escape
of 10 prisoners from the Indiana State
prison at Michigan City. some con-
nected with the break and some traced
to the activity of other mobS fleeing
from Chicago where the enforcement
of the reputation" law has forced many
hocdlums to seek other fields OF action.
An investigation of the prison break
is still being conducted by the State,
but reports are to the effect that 1t
will show colluSion between guards ana
outside influences.
Only two of the escaping prisoners
have been apprehended. One was cap
tured in Hammond and another was
shot down by Brown County farmer.
Trouble Over DilIinger.
According to State police the whole
affair could have been prevented II

cape. Instead Of surrendering Dill
linger to Indiana. Dayton sent him to
Lima, and a few days ago three men,
one of whom was identified as one of
the escaped prisoners, killed the sheriff
and liberated him.
A State policeman was kidnapped by
gangsters at the point of guns, and the
next day five men armed with machine
guns and shotguns shot their way to
liberty in downtown Indianapolis after
holding up wholesale establishment.
One policeman and a clerk were

AIle CTuA OF UQe Ory leaOerS con-
tentions is that the Pennsylvania vote
will result in a referendum" and not a
convention" and therefore will frus
trate the intention of article of the
amendments to be ratified by State con-
venti0nS.
Contentious Outlined.
The petition contends the delegates
will not be representative of the cleo
torate, because chosen at large instead
of by districts: that the convention will
not be deliberative body, because dele
gates will be instructed when elected,
and that repeal of the eighteenth
amendment is a Federal and not State
question.
Circumstances surrounding the suit
may prevent the court from acting on
any of the constitutional questions in
disposing Of the plea for injunction. IG
seeks to restrain the secretary of the
Commonwealth from certifying to county
commissioners the names of the two
groups of delegates for printing on bal
lots. This certification has been made
and the defense is expected to be that
it is impossible for an injunction to
halt an act that has been completed.
For that reason it is likely the suit will
be disposed of without reference to the
legality of electing delegates at large,
which dry leaders have attacked in
several other States.
Davis Safe Until 1899.
Acquittal of Senator James J. Davis
Of charges of violating Federal lottery
laws may change the entire character
of the 1884 campaign in the State. Had
he been convicted. his retirement from
the Senate would have been regarded as
inevitable, and Gov. Pinchot, foe of
the Republican organization, would have
named a temporary Senator to serve
until after next years election. Davis
now is safe in the Senate until January,
1899.
Pinchot generally has been credited
with desires to run for the Senate next
year, and had been regarded as prefer
ring to seek Davis seat, if that place
became vacant. Now If he runs it must
b for Senator David A. Reeds seat,
which will be filled next year. Pinchot
may be less willing to tilt with Reed
?t the Republican primary, for it seems
likely Reed may receive undivided
organization support.
The Governor has been angling for
an alliance with the Democratic State
leadership In the legislative session
last Spring almost the entire Demo-
cratic bloc supported the admini:tra-
ton The rapport has continued to an
extent this Fall, two Pinchot Repub-
1icanS holding Democratic nominations
in Philadelphia, supported by fusionists
dubbed "Pinchocrats" by the organiza-
ton. The Governors goal in his ac-
cord with the Democrats has been re-
pated to be the Democratic nomination
for Senator next Spring.

The Governor declared that the Fed

as to wage rates and manner of eX-

of per cent would, in the long run
be more expensive. State bonds, he
said would find ready market at

that the probable delay in obtaining
public works funds. while the Federal
machinery was handling the applica-
tions would involve a delay which
would thwart the States need for the

"but there are so many things happen
Ing all the time that don't sound rea-
sonable that don't know when to be-
lieve thing and when not to-"
Peter had planned to go about
among his friends and tell them all
about Lightfoot's new horns, for he
suspected that few of them knew
about them. But after his talk with
Mrs. Peter he changed his mind. You
see doubt had crept In, and In spite Of
all he could do 1t stayed there. He
tried to make himself believe that he
believed that story. but that miser-
able doubt persisted. So, though his
tongue fairly itched to tell the story
Of Lightfoot's new horns, he kept 1t
still.
One night when Mistress Moon was
shining brightly Peter wandered deep
in the Green Forest until presently he
found himself on the edge of swampy
place. 1t was the very place where
Lightfoot the Deer had spent the win
ter when the snow was deep. Peter
hoped along aimlessly. He was think
Ing SO hard that he didn't watch his
steps, and presently he stepped on
something that hurt his foot.
"Ouch !" he cried, and looked to see
what 1t was he had stepped on. Stick
ing out Of the soft wet earth was what
Peter at first thought was a sharp
pointed stick. But when he looked
little more closely he saw that 1t was
different from any stick he had ever
seen before. The point was smooth
and polished, and when later Peter
tried his teeth on 1t he found he made
no impression on 1t. At once he be-
gan to dig around 1t to see what the
rest OF 1t was like. 1t wasn't long be-
fore he found that there were other
points. A thought flashed into Peters
head, and he made the soft earth fair
ly fly as he dug, for Peter was growing
more and more excited.
AT last he had uncovered all of the
queer stick with several points 1t
wasn't stick at all. 1t was one of
Lightfoot's old horns. There was no
question about that. There it lay right
In front Of him. Peter gave great
sigh of pure happiness. That bother
some doubt In his mind had been put
to sleep forever. Lightfoot had said
that his old horns had dropped off
somewhere and here was one Of them
to prove It,
"Lightfoot's story was true" cried
Peter joyfully. "Now Mrs. Peter will
have to believe 1t. II she don't I'll
make her come over here and see this
horn for herself. When you tell
story that's hard to believe there Is
nothing like having proof that 1t is
true" Peter jumped up In the air,
kicked his long heels together and
then started for home, lipperty-lipper-
ty-lip, to tell Mrs Peter what he had
found.
