A jury in the Venango county criminal court Thursday rendered a verdict ot guilty in the case against R. J. Dick, steward of the Moose club, of Franklin Indicted for selling liquor without a license. More Important than the ver diot, however, Is the charge of the court, which, If sustained by the higher courts, will result In practically every lodge In the state serving liquor being compelled to discontinue such sales or distribution. Judge Criswell said In substance that no lodge could legally sell or distribute liq uor among its members, though clubs or ganized for a laudable purpose by the members of a lodge may do so. Acting on the advice of the lodge's attorneys, the house of the Moose closed its bar and will keep it closed, probably, until the higher courts act on an appeal that will undoubtedly be taken if a motion for a new trial Is refused. - Inspect Cook Tract. Senator T. M. Kurtz, who Is a member of the commission appointed by the gov ernor to Investigate and report upon the Cook lands In Forest and Jefferson coun ties, which it 1b proposed to purchase for the State, drove over to Cooksburg in his auto yesterday and looked over the lands. He was accompanied by George L. Glenn Walter Brown and Joseph L. Kurtz, M. I. McCrelght, of Dubois, and C. . Gor dou, of Brookville, were also there, and the party was entertained at dinner by A. W. Cook, one of the owners of the land In question. Mr. Glenn was much Impressed with the beauty of the proposed forest reserva tion. Much of It, be says, is virgin for est, on which great pines, 150 feet In height, are standing In their primitive majesty. This is the largest tract of virgin pine that Is now left in the Slate, and those who favor Ita purchas maintain that, un less the State buys and preserves It, only a few years will elapse until it will be impossible to find, within the borders of couiuionweaitn once lamous tor us great pine forests, anything resembling original conditions. runxy opiru, SO DECISION ON WATER CHARTERS Full Text of Forest County's Petition Protesting iralnst the Granting of Water Power Charters, A dispatch from HarriBburg under date of September 6th cays: The fourth hearing on the application for the chartering of a big water project along the Clarion river and Tionesta creek, which was held today before the State Water Supply Commission, was marked by some spirited passes between counsel. Attorney Frank M. Eastman of Uarrlsburg, representing the promo ters of the project, charged that the delay In securing final action was due to the "dilatory" tactics of the Pittsburg Flood Commission. This body, he said, first opposed the plan, then favored it; then switched again and finally did not appear at today'a bearing, which probably will bring about another hearing. Members of the Water Supply Commission said to day'a special meeting had been called so hurriedly that the Pittsburg Flood Com mission could not arrange to be here. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company and the Forest county commissionera both appeared today among the opponents of the charters being granted, neither having figured before. Eighteen different companies are asking for charters, of which J. R. Paull, J. R. Rose and ex Senator Jonn S. Weller of Pittsburgh are to be the Incorporators, with Paull hold ing all but two shares of (be stock In each. The plans Include a 300-loot dam across the Tionesta creek valley Just above Tio nesta, the power to be generated at the mouth of the Clarion river. The protest of the Pennsylvania railroad, which was filed by Lyman D. Gilbert of this city, was awakened by the possibility of direct damages. The Pennsylvania and under lying corporations have considerable holdings Id the territory affected and Mr, Gilbert's protest was in the nature of a "bands off" warning, Mr. Rose and Mr. Eastman said that no danger ex ists of the watet backing up to an extent which will injure the Pennsylvania property Con tradictory opinions as to just what will happen were expressed by Eastmau, Rose and A. C. Brown, Forest county solicitor, who presented the plea of the commis sioners of that county. Brown was backed by Don. C. Corbett of Clarion county; T. F. Ritcbey ex-Congressman N. P. Wheeler and F. K. Brown, of For est county. Solicitor Brown declared that the dam would wipe out from $2,000 000 to $3,000,000 worth of assessable prop erty, six bridges which cost $75,000, ren der 5,000 bomel9SS and remove their em ployment and play bavoo generally. He further declared that half ot the couuty tax will be wiped out and Forest county shoved to the verge of bankruptcy. Mr. Rose and others said that Brown was ex aggerating matters, that not more than 1,500 persons would be directly affected and that the project would bring new in dustries Into the valley to replace any which may be destroyed. Mr. Rose also disputed a statement by Mr. Brown that the backwater will be eight or ten miles wide, ssying that Its average width will be only 2,500 feet Mr. Brown said that the residents ol Tionesta would not care to remain in tbat town with the dam fust above them for fear that the barrier would break. John Birkinbine, chairman of the Water Supply Commission, stated that at the request of the commission be baa made a personal examination of the ter ritory. Ilia remarks Indicated that he thought Solicitor Brown's statements were two sweeping, although neither be nor any of the other members of the com mission made any direct statement as to the probable action which they will take, The commission continued tbe applica tions under advisement. No disposition of them will be made until further data is obtained from the Pittsburg Flood commission. J, R. Rose, tbe chief engineer for the incorporators, will be in Tionesta tomor row, Thursday, for a conference with tbe county commissioners. KORE9T COUNTY'S PETITION. In re applications of Tionesta Water Pow er Company, Green Water Power Com pany, Kingsley Water Power Com pany, Howe Water Power Company and Forest Water Power Company, for charters. To tbe Water Supply Commission of Pennsylvania We, the undersigned, County Commis sioners of tbe county ol Forest and state of Pennsylvania, on part and behalf of tbe citizens, residents and taxpayers of said county, do hereby protest and object to the granting of the charters as prayed for. First. We aver tbat the county of For est has a population of about 10,000, and that tbe Tionesta creek runs through said county for a distance of 30 miles and that tbe said creek divides tbe said coun ty Into two parts of about equal area. Second. That along and adjacent to said creek and along its tributaries are many farms with buildings erected there on and a large number of inhabitants of said county reside along said creek and its tributaries. Third. Tbat tbe Tionesta valley ex tends all along said creek and located in said valley are factories, farms, tanneries gristmills, saw mills, manufacturing plants, railroads, churches, kindling wood factories, handle factories, publio roads, gasoline plants, oil and gas pro duction and other Industries all of value and of use to tbe county of Forest, Fourth, That along said creek and In said valley are many villages, publio roads extending all along said creek and at many places crossing tbe same, and tbe value of tbe property situate In and along creek and valley Is worth upwards of three or four millions of dollars. Fifth. Tbe county of Forest has erected on said creek within Raid county six bridges for tbe use and benefit ot ita citizens and residents at an expense ol more than $75,000 00, includiugone bridge erected at the expense of the state of Pennsylvania. Sixth. Tbat Forest county consists of the following townships, viz: Howe, Tionesta, Green, Kingsley, Barnett, Harmony, H Ickory and Jenks, and one borough, Tionesta, tbat the Tionesta creek runs or flows through the town ships of Howe, Kingsley, Green and Tio nesta, and the Clarion river flows along the southern boundry of the township of Barnett, said county of Forest, Seventh, That should charters be granted as prayed for and tbe scheme carried out as contemplated then the en tire Tionesta valley would be turned in to an inland lake from one mile to ten miles wide and forty five miles long and more than one-balf of the entire valuation of tbe county would be destroyed, hun dreds of people without homes, and other lands not Inundated by said project would be made practicably worthless, roads, bridges, farms, manufacturing plants and all industry of the county would be affected and the valuation of the county so reduoed and property so depredated that the county would become bankrupt, Eightb.-Tbe township or Baruett, For est county, Is bounded on the south by tbe Clarion river and should tbe project or acheme be carried out as Is proposed then a vast amount of private property consisting of mills, dwelling bouses, stores and other property would be totally destroyed, public roads and brides taken away and the Inhabitants of said town ship would have no way to market their product and all tbe property of said township would be greatly reduced In value. Ninth. Tbat at the mouth of Tionesta creek Is situate Tionesta, the county seat of said county, and tbe county has erected there ita Juvenile Jail, county Jail, and court house. Many good and valuable bouses are situate In Tionesta and much valuable properly located in tbe Tionesta flats along tbe Tionesta creek and the Allegheny river with a four span bridge crossing the Allegheny river at Tionesta. Should tbe project be carried out the town of Tionesta would be in danger of damage by floods or breaks in tbe dam and tbe lives ot ita citizens be In danger and the value of property in Tionesta would be greatly depredated, From tbe facta above set forth, which can be substantiated by evidence, and believing tbat tbe grant of tbe charters would be detrimental to the Inhabitants of tbe county and injurious to property of the county and its inhabitants, and knowing and believing that more than one-balf of the entire taxable property would be destroyed and become useless and of no value and tbe Uvea of many of tbe citizens of tbe county be in great danger, we therefore on bebalf of tbe citizens, residents and taxpayers of tbe county of Forest, do hereby most earnest ly protest against tbe granting of the charters.
