Fight for 1t.
The members of the Liberal Club are
making a strong fight for an early prf-
mary. They say they want to get the
question of the legislators settled. and
they don't care how soon they do it.
I'VE want the question of legislators
from this county settled at the primary
of June g." one of them said, land it
would not make any difference to us ~
the matter were settled before that time
We do not want a long campaign We
are ready to meet the other side at a
primary at any time, and we Nave no
doubt as to what the result will be-"
This Is one view that is being taken
of the situation as it stands at present
So far as can he learned the Citizens
Club is not averse to this proposition
It's members say they do not see any
reason why the question of representa-
tlves should not be settled at the primary
of June 6. In this county the question, so
entirely local one, and the action of
the county on this question at that pri-
mary will not cut any particular figure
in the elections which come later The
Citizens Club people say they are ready
TO meet the Liberal Club at primary
at any time.
1t appears that neither side is worried
about the result Both are ready and
willing to have an early primary and
they seem practically satisfied with the
registration as 1t now stands 1t is =.
fact, however, that nearly 1000 voters
who We're registered last year have not
entered their names on the registration
books for this var. There were only nine
teen registered yesterday, bringing the to-
tai up to 4,463.

ISOLATION held a meeting at the Screven
house yesterday afternoon. The details
pertaining to the entertainment of the
friends of the wholesale merchants and
the members of the association during
May week were discussed but action was
postponed until next Saturday
The interesting feature of the meeting
was the showing of President Joseph
LoVenstein as to how the association is of
as much benefit to the large shippers as to
the commercial travelling men. Mr.. f. E.
Smith, state chairman of the railroad COM
mittee, urges that the large shippers,
brokers, wholesale merchants and job

pounds of freight, and we ask that we be

1t is a mistaken idea, the members say,
that the Travellers Protective Association
is working aginst the railroads. Nobody

more than they do and all they ask for is
an equitable rate. Grhey ask why should A
