A Bill for That Purpose Introduced In
Senate Yesterday-A Very Fair Measure.
Spsetal TslsgrGnt0 ths REGISTER.
CHARLESTON, w. VA, February o.
To the Senate this morning Gen. Watts
introduced the bill TO amend the cleo
ton law, which was decided
upon by last nights caucus
Of the Democratic members. The
constitutional provision requiring
the bill 10 be read three separate days,
and also the reference TO a committee
were dispensed with by party vote
and the bin was read a first time by its
title and ordered to be printed. II Is
one of the most important measures to
come before the Legislature this session
as il proposes some radical changes and
amendments to the present law.
Ii provides for the appointment OF an
election board in each county Of the
State, TO be composed of three persons,
not more than two of whom shall be Of
the same political party. 1t provides
that the board OF public works shall ap-
point the different boards and that ma
iOriUy of the members shall come from the
dominant political party in the respect
i've counties. The county committees
OF the two political parties casting the
highest number OF votes In the last gen
eral election select two members OF the
Board and the third is appointed by the
Board of Public Works, but he must be
member OF the dominant political
party. The County Election Boards
appoint the commissioners in each vot-
Ing precinct, but the bill provides that
two of the three commissioners must
come from the party casting the largest
number Of votes in the precinct.
One OF the most important sections Of
the bin provides that citizens of other
STATES must declare their intention Of
becoming citizens OF West Virginia be-
fore the clerk Of a county court, and
that official must keep record
OF such declarations in book
kept for that purpose. a certificate
is granted by the clerk, and the citizen
Is not entitled 10 vote within twelve
months of the date upon which he
made such declaration. Severe pun
ishment is inflicted for false entries by
the Clerk Of the Court and false state
ments by the person who declares his
intention Of becoming citizen, and II
the latter SwearS falsely he is held
guilty of perjury.
The bill further provides that in case
of writs of mandamus or cetiOrari, re-
garding the election OF members of the
Senate or House of Delegates, the Su-
preme Court Of Appeals shall hold a
special session at the State Capital not
later than January to pass upon such
writS.
In most other respects the law remains
as ut present. The bill is generally re-
garded as being very fair and is being
supported by the State Committee, the
present and incoming administrations
and nearly every Democratic member.
1t gives the weaker party representa-
tion in many counties were it has never

During the services at the M. Z.
church last Sunday night Rev. Grimes
referred to the Hanes House saloon in
very emphatic way. to which Mr.
HaneS took umbrage and the next day
called Mr.. Grimes TO task about IL. The
two gentlemen had some hot words over
the matter and Mir. Hanes threatened
to bring suit for damages. We under
stand that he has consulted counsel
abaut the matter.
There have been about fifty CONVEX

phenomenal success in all the meetings
and is a wonderful power to the Church.

The school Levy Increase Seems Likely
20 pass the House-May be Defeated in

SDsc,al Telegram 20 ne RSOistsr-
CHARLESTON. w. VA, February o.
The debate upon the bill to increase the
State school levy was resumed in the
House this morning, and the members
i'm favor OF IT'S passage carried their
point. The bill was ordered TO It's third
reading. -,
Considerable feeling has grown out OF
the discussion, and from the frequent
threats heard upon all sides, it is fair
10 assume that there is possibility
that countless complications may arise.
In this event the interests OF the State
aud her institutions will suffer, but 1t is
probable that wiser counsel will pre-
vail.
The bill is being ssubbornly con-
tested, but the opponents Of the meas
ure realize that the majority is against
them in the House, and rely upon the
defeat Of the bill in the Senate.
This afternoon Senator Gall was APP
preached by three members ef the
House, who offered to support his bill,
then on its second reading In the lower
body, providing for the establishment
of the independent school district OF
Bellington, Barbour county, on condi-
ton that he would support the increase
I'm the school tax in the Senate. Mr..
Gall responded that he would not be
coerced into a support Of the measure
and his bill was laid on the table.
Several members of the House, 1t IS
reported, have also been approached
with like propositions.
In the House Mr.. Brockunier, Of Ohio
county, was the first TO speak upon the
tax bill, and he made an excellent argu-
ment in support of his amendment
which was listened 20 with close atten-
ton. He referred to the fact already
mentioned I'm the REGISTER that several
county courts have made horizontal
reduction in the value fixed by the re-
appraiSement, and pointed out that 1t
was important to be certain that the
twenty-five millions increase shown by
the last assessment can be relied upon
before making any disbursements. lie
thought taxation should be reduced.
Mr.. Davis, OF Fayette, favored the
bill and was opposed to Mr.. Brocknu-
ier's amendment.
Mr.. Edwards, of Kanawha, thought
taxation should be reduced but he had
another method 1t was a retrench-
ment ia the expenses Of State house
keeping. He spoke in favor OF his res
olution to appoint committee to inves-
tigate the fee system and favored its
abolition, not only with regard to the
Offices Of auditor and secretary OF State,
but sherifTS and clerks Of the county
courts.
Mr.. Floyd did not agree with his col
league. He thought local interest was
essential to good schools and asserted
that the friends of the bill favored 1t
because they would receive heavy tnan-
cial aid and would be enabled to reduce
local taxation.
Mr. cambridge replied to Mr.. Ed
wards, and the debate was closed by a
demand from Mr.. Wilson for the ayes
and noes on the school levy at 10 cents.
IL was lost by vote Of 26 to 40. The
bill was then ordered TO its engross-
ment and third reading.

One of the most astonishing things
that Italy has to offer to the tourist
travelling among her mountains is that
of whole village of weli-to-do Italians
speaking excellent English. with a dis
tinctive American accent. They arc re-
tired organ-grinders. who have acquired
comforta BILE fortunes in America. and
have come back to their beloved native
land TO live in afiiuence with
their families in this strange
little colony which they have
founded among the sweet Italian
mountains. The stranger, in walking
through the quiet streets, is often as
tonished at the sound of hand-organ
pealing forth the familiar strains Of
sweet VioletS' or Annie Rooney
from within some one Of the houses.

which the organs are held by their
