The attitude OF Senator Martin towards

dates for the United States Senate is
being discussed by politicians IN WASH

is doubt manifested in some quarters
as to how Senator Martin regards the
primary method. Y 1tsis true that he has
not recently expressed any. opinion on the

his friends have openly declared their
opposition to selecting candidates in this
manner. @ s@4 stii u + .5 ..s

A SHOT AT MR., HANNA.
Senator Hanna, who Is financially In

Harris when seen by a Times-Dispatch

to utter the money for goods or as cash

several persons that the notes were good.
