DRAW Up A SUBSTITUTE
OPPONENTS OF PRIMARY ELECTION
BILL WISH TO COMPROMISE.

MADISON, Wis, March 4.-tSPecial y
The past week was not particularly pro-
ductive of results in the legislature 1t
was hoped by many members that
report would be made on the primary
election bill, but now this will pr5bably
not occur until the middle of this week
Executive sessions are now being held by
the assembly committee unanimous
report is expected, though it is report
ed Assemblyman Ky Karel of for
mer football fame. may dissent
The measure will undoubtedly be made
the special order for some day, and
will pass the assembly easily. There
will be no report on the measure until
after the assembly committee has act
ed.
A substitute l&s been drawn up by the
opponents of the measure in the hope Of
compromise, and is now in the hands
of Senator Gaveney, son-in-laW of Judge
C'Boss'O E. W. Keyes, the former Re-
publican Dictator of Wisconsin. 1t does
away with caucuses and provides for
the election of delegates to conventions
at primary elections. 1t has not yet
been decided whether the substitute will
be presented or the fight made on the
original bill. Supporters of the primary
bill say there will be no compromise, and
profess little fear of its passage
A bill on which quite a fight is ex-
PSClSO tIllS week Is IEdI OF senator
Mosher to do away with insurance on
public buildings. A factor which NAV
cut considerable figure in the contest IS
the statement made by Assemblyman
heene in the debate last on the bill to
restore the Wisconsin battle flags from
the new library building to the capitol
He said expert builders had made the
statement that the capitol, while not
fretrap, was decidedly unsafe, and so
poorly protected that if a fire once got
started it would be but a short time be-
fore it would be destroyed. The state
ment has created a sensation.
An absence that is noticed about the
legislative halls at this session is that
of lobbyists in favor of the liquor in
terests. While a number of sweeping
anti-liquor bills have been presented. ap-
parently the brewers and saIoonkeepers
have but little fear. Two such bills were
killed last week. the pure beer bill. pro
viding that all beer kegs and bottles
should be labeled with the ingredients OF
tsle liquid contained, and the bill to pro-
hibit saloons within a mile of the state
capitol and university.

PROSPECT OF HOT FIGHT.
BILL FOR REDGSTRICTING STATE
INTRODUCED IN THE
HOUSE
IS BASED ON DAUGHERTY PLAN
Hennepin and the Minority Members
VIII Make Determined Attack
on the MeaSure-Com-
promise Likely.

bill for redistricting the state in ac-
cOrdance with the plan adopted last week
by the re2ppOrtionment committee, COM
monty known as the "Daugherty' plan,
was introduced in the house yesterday
by Representative Anderson, of Winona,
as chairman of the house committee.
The bill merely presents its official title
and outlines the plan, giving the forma-
ton of each of the nine districts as
provided in the 'Daugherty'' system,
which has been published several times
in these columns.
The bill viii be taken up by the house
as a special order Friday at 1890.
The minority of the committee, which
is composed OF Representative Larson
and the Hennepin representation, did not
take any action in the house when this
bill came up, reserving their prerogative
until later AS stated in the G b e
Sunday, those who are antagonistic TO
the proposed method of redistricting the
state have by no means abandoned their
efforts to gain recognition before the
house and senate During the past few
days they have been specializing upon a
plan or plans. and they are now more
encouraged with the hope of effecting a
compromise with the majority than they
have yet been. It is not probable that
Mr. Larson will present his plan as 1t
appeared in the committee, and it is pos
sible that no plan whatever will be
submitted by either himself or any Of
those who decline to support the
Daugherty plan. but another course is
being undertaken which, if accomplished,
will prove satisfactory to the minority.
Possibly before todays session is over
the negotiations between the minority
and majority will have reached the point
when 1t Will be proper to disclose them
If this IS done the matter may be set
tied there and then without further diff
hcG.$ and the house as well as the
senate be spared the scene of a bitter
fight upon this bill.
Mr.. Larson stated yesterday afternoon
that he thought it quite probable a
course would be taken which would
prompt the withdrawal of his plan The
majority faction or the friends of the
Daugherty plan may make the conces-
sions sought by the minority, in which
case they would agree to an amendment
being made to their bill now pending
in both houses. It is understood that
the concessions involved in the negotia
lions will clear up all dissatisfaction and
make the plan that Will be submitted
after the amendment is attached as near
agreeable to all factions and parties as
1t would be possible to Go. The Demo
cratic members are interested in the deal
that is pending, and, while they would
of course be better satisfied with still an
other plan if this transaction IS con-
summated, they will no doubt feel that
all they could have expected under the
circumstances had been realized
Mr.. Larson said yesterday he believed
the matter could be reached today.

CREDAL CHANGES.
Presbyterian Divfnes Differ as to
the Confession of Faith.

NEW YORK, March 4-"ProDosed
Credal Changes" was the topic OF dis
course at the March meeting Of the
presbyterian union, which was held to-
night at the Hotel Savoy. Three en-
inent Presbyterian divines who addressed
the meeting reviewed the m 7re prominens
methods which have been advanced in
connection with the settlement OF &c
credal questions.
The speakers Of the evening were Rev.
E. Dewitt, professor Of church history at
Princeton seminary; Rev DR.. George
Black Stellar, president ana professor OF
theology, Auburn seminary. and Dr.
Henry Johnson. professor OF sacred rhe-
toric and pastoral theology at the sem
trary at Chicago. Rev. DR.. Dewitt said
the principles of the PRESBYTERIAN creed
should in this crisis be reaffifm and
left unchanged He said in pa,t: ~ wish
to speak on the present crisis. In this
phase of the present crisis we coma upon
a matter of the last choice. for not one
or US, I take it, looks upon our confess
sion as either perfect or incaFab,e Of i'm
provement- l can easily conceive Of
crisis in the church with which we should
zeal very fnadequately if we failed 10
amend the confession or e-se to formulate
new creed. Were the present period
enc of profound and enthusiastic sup
pert in positive religious truths. which
6ller deep study ana long debate had
come TO distinct understanding in the
conscience Of the church. then it would
lie useless TO try TO prevent what had al
ready expressed itself in the church con-
seriousness from being formulated in the
church's symbols"
The speaker made a reference to the
work of Rev. H Vandyke formerly pas
tor of the Brick chucch. And 1t IS the
gospel for an age Of doubt. which one
Of our own clergymen eloquently and
with literary grace commends 10 students
about to begin their ministry. I am not
criticising either our regular seminaries
nor DR.. Vandyke. I am only trying TO
set forth the difficulties which confront
us. The present scrisis is the farthest
removed from those cut OF which issued
the vital and abiding creeds of the
church Of God. The age is one Of doubt,
not one OF faith
The next sIeaker was Rev. DIT. George
Black Stewart, who spoke on Entirely
New Standards OF Belief Demanded at
the Present Time
Rev Henry Johnston followed. Ho
spoke on while it would not be advis-
able TO discard the established standards
of the Presbyterian church the time had
come when they should be modernized in
form and modified in certain state
ments.'
