This is the most dishonorable of poll
teal methods. IT is the old trick Of
running with the hare and hunting with
the hounds. 1t is perfectly compatible
with fusion. which is and must neces-
sarily be a game Of false pretences. It
scales lofty mountains of unusual virtue

BY its loud -mouthed assumption of a

CONGRESSMAN Frank NJ. Eddy has
wona sweeping victory at the pri-
maries nearly everywhere in the Sew
enth congressional district. We
don't have to hear from the Register
now, as We have heard from the peo-
pie, we have heard from the country.
Every county in which conventions
have been held, except Wilkin, which
is Mr.. Valentines home, has chosen
solid Eddy delegations. Warren, Ar
gyle and Stephen primaries went al
most unanimously for Eddy, and
likewise did the country towns. Mr..
Eddy's strength lies with the people,
and they rallied nobly to his support,
and will do so. again in November

to be married one day. When they left
the boat at the Fourth street wharf in

Nevertheless the groom called cab

At the city hall he paid $500 for q mar

At the latter's house the cabby de-
manded $3.50. The groom replied that
he did not have it, and the driver COM
promised on 81, leaving 40 cents for the
minister.
The groom, however, was not done

cents and after the marriage ceremony
handed it to the minister. How the

WORKING FOR STATE BANKS.
McLAURIN WOULD REPEAL TAX
ON STATE BANK NOTES.
Palmetto Representative Determined
To Make His Colleagues Show
Their Hands Fully.

Washington. January S.-(Specia1.)-
Senator McLaurin, of South Carolina, in
troduced today an amendment to the
senate currency bill. providing for the
repeal of the 10 per cent tax upon state
banks. The senator has expressed his
determination to press this matter to
vote. He claims that the repeal Is pure
democratic doctrine. He has been chatting
under the criticism of some of his coll
leagues for his position upon the expan-
sion question. Some of these democratic
senators have in the past voted against
the repeal Of this state bank tax and he
determined to put them on record by foro-
ing n vote on this amendment.
Il only want said he. Ito find out
who the democrats are"
Senator McLaurins idea is that he has
as much right to read out of the party
those who against repeal they
have to read him out for inclining to-
ward expansion.
The reports which have appeared in
some of the papers of his district TO
the effect that Congressman Lester. of
the first district, has announced that he
would not again be a candidae for cum
gress are certainly premature, If not en-
tireiy contrary to the facts. Colonel Les
ter states positively that he has not made
any such statements and tho Inference
from what he says is that he does not
intend making any such statements.
Georgia members of congress who have
received petitions from the Minister'S
Evangelical Association urging legisla-
ton to forbid the granting of federal
licenses to distiEerles say that
the idea that the government
licenses these people to do bus
mess is an erroneous one The police
powers of the state and their right to
regulate all matters coming properly
therein are recognized by the govern
ment. Through the internal revenue de-
partment the government taxes the bus
mess wherever 1t IS found to exist. The
idea that the internal revenue depart
ment is in the habit of concealing the
names of those who pay the internal rev.
enue tax is also wrong. 1t is always
within the power of the grand juries to
secure from the internal revenue a list
OF those who pay the government tax.
