Corrupt Pratices ACT.

Perhaps no bill to be introduced at the
coming session of the Legislature will create
more general interest throughout the State
than the act which will have for it, purpose
the prevention OF corrupt practices 10 NUM-
cipal and State Elections
Both Democrats and Republicans have
declared themselves in favor OF such law.
The Reform League, through Senator Put
eel, Republican, will have reintroduced the
bill put forward by that gentleman two
years ago, but which tailed Of passage chiefly,
it is generally believed, because its consid
Grafton was begun too near the time Of ad-
tournament.
The speakers of both parties In the recent
campaign made emphatic declarations upon
the subject. While there does not seem to
be a strict unanimity Of opinion regarding
the details of such bill as may be passed,
there appears To be desire on the part OF
the members of the General Assembly TO
see bill passed that will at least minimize
the election evils 10 question. Senator Put
Eel s measure meets tue hpproNdl VI many
who have studied 1t, but some, especially
among the Democrats, think that the dom
inant forces 10 the Legislature will be able
to give the people law that will be even
more effective.
Governor elect John Walter Smith re-
peatedly gave ASSURANCES during the cam
paign that he favored the enactment Of a
corrupt practices act % one occasion he
said:
IL am 10 favor Of more stringent laws
puuishing the buying Of votes, and Of cor
rupt practice act, similar 10 that in force In
New York.
| Colonel Smith has not change his views,
and is still Of the opinion that such meas
ure will be adopted by the Legislature.

Jumpers Dead Heat-Game, stanch
old McFonso jumped into the hearts OF the
turtles via the hurdle route last week. He
transformed himself from a deuce to an ace,
so to speak, by treading his plebeian hoofs
on aristocratic equine corns and shining as
star of the purest ray in swell horse 80
ciety, with his win at 100 to in the jump
ing event. He again staked himself to Gre
dentials that entitle him to move in the
upper horse set by sharing the honors of
dead heat at Benning yesterday in one OF the
grandest struggles and most exciting, bruis-
ing climaxes ever witnessed In hurdle
race. McFonso's comrade in the honors
yesterday was the good hurder Governor
rider, Donohue.
The old Washington outlaw and Grggs
tore under the wire nose and nose. Char.
agrace was but head in the rear OF the
game contenders, who split the money on
the event, while the favorite, Julius Caesar,
landed fourth, less than length away. So
close was the quartet that the public could
not pick the winner, and it took the judges
a few minutes to decide on the result, 1t
was the feature OF the day, and, coupled
with the fact that every favorite was bowled
over, gave the rail birds plenty to talk about.
In his run to the finish McFonso bumped
into Julius Caesar, and then crowded Char
agrace and Gov. Griggs on the rail 80 close
that it looked as if serious accident must
occur. Donohue and Owens both claimed
foul against the winner, but it was not al
lowed Wash. Post of Wednesday.
McFonso is owned by Mr.. Frank Keys,
of Linden, this county. The distance run
was one mile and three quarters and the
time made was three minutes and twenty
two seconds.

this town are twin boys named Graham,
about seven years old, and so near alike
il is a difficult task for their father or
mother 10 tell them apart.
These boys have gained considerable
notoriety as fighters, but Alex, possessing
more skill and endurance than his twin
brother Johnny, Is much superior in the
manly art this fact the other boys hav-
ing learned to their sorrow 1t happened
that in the crowd around the grocery
store were Johnny and young boy
named Mcintyre. Someone started
getting up collection for the twin and
Mcintyre to fight. Mcintyre thinking
he had the easier twin to fight readily
agreed and the fight was ON. After
sparring for an opening, the twin landed
four or five times OH McIutyre's nose so
fast he could hardly'get his breath; how
ever when he did, with look of amaze
ment on his face that bePgars description,
he yelled, hold on, this is the wrong
twin ="
