The case will attract a large crowd to

prominence it has been given in the past
weeks and because of uncertainty as to
the result.
1t is almost certain that the hearing
of the case will occupy the entire atten-
tion OF the court during the day, and il
is probable that it will rim over into
the day following. This will be guarded
against. If possible. because of the many
gambling cases set for that day.

Barring the frequent Interruptions to

by Chairman Ellysons statement to that

makes the nominati ton of the best men
a matter of the highest public impor-
tance. The Constitution recently pro-
claimed provides for a new registration
of all the voters in the State. No more
important duty could devolve upon our
party leaders than the putting forth of
such efforts will lead to the registra-
