t ENTIRE OHIO CITY IS MOVING. s ink i ii? Way for Uiver Improvements to Prevent blood Destruction,. Dayton, Ohio, Aug. 10.-Tho little town of Osborne Is moving. Within a period of a fow months lb,o little city will be located on a site two miles from its present location. Construction of the groat Miami Valley Conservancy District, at a cost of approximately thirty-live million dollars, has necessitated the removal of this little city. Tho build ing of a dirt road, over which Os borne will moko Its trek to a new site, already has been completed, and buildings in the little city's business district aro being razed. Homes aro being demolished or taken down, pieco hy piece. The citizens of Osborne-each of tho 1,201-are gk it thal "moving day" had arrived. In their new homes "up tho road" they will bo assured "that no repetition of the 1 :i 1 ;! Hood will ever come. When the Hood of 1'.) I ;! ripped in to Dayton, Osborne also was Hooded. Whet! tho citizens of Dayton and those of other towns and districts {n eight adjoining counties banded themselves together to make thc Miami valley "safe for democracy" tho Miami Valley Conservancy Dis trict, which is a courl or government niuo itself, was formed under laws of the State of Ohio. Will Hill ld live Dams. The schetne for preventing a rep etition of the 1913 Hoods was work ed out hy Arthur E. Morgan and his associates, lt called for the construc tion of live great dams in the dis trict, with a system of outlets or spillways, which would releaso tho water behind the dams in such quan tities that tho streams below the dams would not bo overloaded. The dams have been completed. They are gigantic structures, and they withstood the test of this spring in such a manner as to convince the most skeptical of the wisdom of tho r plan. Thirty-seven feet of water was backed up behind some of the dams, which could have accommodated ono hundred feet moro water without danger. o There was but one town within the district wMiich lay directly below one of tho dams. The law creating Ihe district required thal thia i:*wn be inn/dp safe ?a the futitre, only two ways i>> do Hi is sv?r? possible. Ono wa:; lo build . dam ? imp?o ?ly " t..u io..i?, ino oilier was to move the town bodily to higher ground some distance away. This was regarded as the cheapest and lh<\ best method of solving thc problem. District Ittiys Property. Tile Conservancy District the.l bought the property of tho entire town, through condemnation pro ceedings, and resold tho huliditigs to the owners who wanted them. A few lhere wore who decided to g<> along with tho town to tho new she nm! build new homos. This waa dono \\< a number o'' c:isos? tho old buildings being abandoned for I is posai as the dis! rici m. y see ?' :. was a money-maktng. ?leal for Hie owners, as I hoy mmjie about $30, 000 through tho double transaction. Tho new town Kite was selected by n holding company known as tho Os borne Removal nompnuy. The new site was plat'ed, sidewalks construct ed, gas, wal ir and electric light line put i?, streets laid oui and trees planted, and a location sol asido. I?, Ibo center of tho business district, for a publie par!;, fountain, shrub bery and other things that go to make up a regular civic center. A town hall costing i 1,00 ), which will 1)0 thc seal of government : nd hon." of th?- :in> department, is under way, as ls also a $1 "?,000 school building. The now water works system will c.is; 000 when completed, Man*. Houses Arc Moved. i)f tho 17", houses in the i o wit nearly ; li will bo jacked up and ibo . moving apparatus inserted under ihoih. i : ey tin n Will bo irundi . o ''?e new locations and se; upon the now fonmilitions; Th? removals are to he made wi 1 hon"! disturbing lim fnlnilioi or contents. The lib Uses will ho rolled along what is called tho "spade hundi?," in order to evade n State law requir ing that a villago in extending its ctn porn:,- limits without losing its rights must continue In an unbroken lino. Consequently n strip of land .100 fool wide and extending from Hie Old town site m the new Is ln cluded in the corporation extension. It ls almost two miles long. After Osborne ls completely moved this road and the old town site will bo vacated hy jognl process. Tho former town will he reconverted Into farm lands by tho Conservancy DU? 1 riot. Two of tho four churches In Os borne have already selected thoir lo cations In the new aroa, and several small industries aro making* arrange ments to locato in the now town. A farmors* co-operative elevator is ono of tho new buildings, and a now station for the two steam lines and tho ono electric line ls ready for oc cupancy. Excavation Work Heavy. In building tho five great dams it was necessary to movo 25,000,000 cubic yards of earth by wagon and hydraulic power. The fills wore mudo by sluicing oarth and gravel along what is known as tho core of tho dam. It ls composed of the finer par tidos of the filling, with the outer slopes consisting of tho coarser sands and gravel. lu nearly everycase the dams are ono thousand or moro feet through at the baso. In the construction of the great project th roe"-? toa m roads and ono electric lino were relocated, as wore county and Stale roads, power lines and telephone lines. Tho expenses incurred aro being paid through tho levy of assessments against the properties benefited, just as taxes are levied. Tho bond issues are to bo rotired at tho expiration of thirty years. On top of each dam there ls a roadway 25 feet in width, from which ono can get magnificent views of the basins behind the dams and tho run ways and streams down the,valleys through which Hood waters pass without menacing towns and cities below. Miami Valley Flooded. In IDi:! ono and a half million? acre feet of waler rushed down upon tho cities along the streams in tho Miami valley. While the imprisoned flood victims were penned up they, on bonded knees, made a solemn promise that lt should never happen again, and tho engineering feat just completed indclatos that lt will not - for in the realization of the "prom ise they made in the attic" the en gineers ligure that the water storage provided by the dams is 9,U00.000 feet of water. The dams, it is claim ed, with their conduits would retard a flood 40 per cent greater than that of 1913 without danger. The cities having sustained tho greatest percentage of damage are assessed higher than the farm lands. Tho engineering feat does not mean that the low lands/?long the streams and rivers will not be flooded again, for they will be, but not to tho ex tent that they were In 1913: hut tho cilios will riot be Inundated; : \ K\ r ot r \i.< nu:i.

' ---j Loather, Hide?, Boots and Shoes Co OR tho Protected List. , Washington. Aug. 9-Hides, hoots and shoes and loather wore voted back to the tariff-free Hst to-day by the Senate, which thus concurrodjn the action taken by the libuso more than a year ago. There was only ono roll-call-on hidos -and the result was a voto of 39 to 20 against the commltteo rates of two cents a pound on green or pickled and four cents ou dried hides. Sevon Democrats-Ashrust, Brous sard, Fletcher, Jones of New Mex ico, Kendrick, Ransdcll and Shep pard-voled for tho duty on hides, while twenty-throe Republicans voted against it. Most of tho more marked linos which have developed iu the Senate during tho tariff flght^ disappeared on this vote, but about tho only sur prise was that a majority of tho Re publicans voted against making hides dutiable. Not only was there a split among tho majority leadership on the question, but also in the finance committee majority, and even in the Republican agricultural-tariff bloc, which, through its chairman, Sena tor Gooding, of Idaho, had asked for two cents on groen hides and six ccntfl^on dried hides. Duty Cut on lings, Etc, Only two mombosr of thc finance committee majority - Curtis and Smoot-supported tho duties, white four members-Calder, Dllllnghaui, Frelinghuysen and Sutherland-vot ed against them Chairman McCum ber and Senaloi Watson, of Indiana, tho other two members present, wcro paired and unable to vote. Five mem bers of the tariff bloc broke away ott tho ballot - Spencer, Willis, New, Keys and Townsend. * With hides sent back to the free list, Senator Smoot, of Utah, for tho committee, moved that the Senate disagree to tho amendment propos ing a rate of 12 cents a pair and Ave per cont ad valorem on boots and shoes, and varying rates on band, rough and solo leather, belting and harness leather, and various other kinds of this product. This motion prevailed without a roll-call. Without roll-calls tho Senate cut from 40 to 30 per cent the proposed duty on baga, baskots, b?. 'tH, satchels Slid card cases, pocket Hooke, jewel boxes, portfolios and other boxes and oases! wholly br in ahlef raino of learner. Cm such articles perniaueui ly filled and furnished with travel ing, bottle, drinking, dining or luncheon, sewing, manicure or simi lar sets, tho duty was mado 46 per cent ad valorem in place of the GO per cent originally proposed. The Fight Over Gloves. Tho fight over the duties on leath er gloves carried the Senate Into its first night session in several weeks and resulted in tho approval of a minimum of i>0 per cent and a maxi mum of T'1 per cent, except on gloves mado from Ibo hides of catt] These were placed on tho fror Hst because of the removal of duties on hides, as were, harness, saddles and saddlery. On which the committee had proposed a duty of 20 per cent. ^ On gloves made of I)orso hide and pigskin a rate of 2f> per cent ad va lorem was approved after Senator Reed, Democrat, of Missouri, had objected to high taxes on such gloves, which, he said, were worn largely by farmers and workers. In the six hours' dehnte which pre ceded the vote Senator Lodge, o? Massachusetts, the Republican lead er, anti Senator Walsh, of tho santo State, a Democratic member of tho finance committee, were found fight ing side by sido against tho duties. Senators Lon root, Republican, ot Wisconsin, and Pomerene, Democrat, of Ohio, also math! extended argu ments against removing hides from tht! free list, willie Senator Bu rsum,, Republican, of New Mexico; Jones, Dom ocra t, nf New Mexico; McCum her. Republican, of North Dakota, in charge of tho tariff bill; Stnnflold, Republican, of Oregon, and Gooding, supported tho committee's recom mendations. There was a sharp disagreement between proponents sud opponents as to how much the proposed hide duties would In?rense the price of shoes, and as to whothor the callie misers or tho Chicago meat packers would get the benefit from the in crease on shoes nt from 20 cents per pair to 27 cents, whilo advocates said tho increased cost would range from 3 cents to six cents a pair. Senator Lenroot argued that 00 per cont of tho farmers of tho coun try would loso by reason of a tariff on hidos, as they had only ono or two hides to sell a year, while they Were compelled to buy many pairs of shoos for their families.
