MORE LIGHT ON DECISION
Views of Eminent Counsel On The
Opinion of Chief Judge Of
Circuit Court.
MILES AND G0RMAN SPEAK ON
THE QUESTION.
Frank S. Revell, The Nominee For
Sheriff, Receives a Letter
From Law Firm.

The letters TO the press by Mr.
| James W. Owens, touching the dis
puted meanings in the verbal opinion
of Judge l. Thomas Jones in the case
of Frank s. Revell and others against
the State Central Committee and the
Supervisors of Elections for Anne
Arundel county have in way been
met by the counsel for the other side.
! Messrs. Miles and German, represent
ing the Democratic ticket nominated
in this county at the convention held
in this city on July 26, have written
to Mr.. Revell as follows;
1.-THE court in announcing its opin-
ION stated, among other things, that
if the primary election of July p
was conducted in the manner speoifi-
cally set forth in the bill of complaint
an attempt TO hold another primary
election for the nomination of the
same officers in the county would not
in any way interfere with the rights
of yourself and the other candidates
of the Democratic party nominated at
the convention held on the 26th day
of July, and that therefore there
were no violated rights over which the
court would assume jurisdiction.
''The court further stated tnat it
cannot be assumed that the attempt
to hold another primary election in
Anne Arundel county Will result in
the nomination of other candidates
than yourself and the other nominees
of the convention of July 26, and
that in the absence of such an assump-
tion no rights of yours and the other
nominees of the convention of July
26 have been interfered with In other
words, we understand the ruling of
the court TO be that if the allegations
of your bill of complaint with refer
ence to the calling of primary cleo
tion on July % can be supported by
proof the holding of another primary
meeting cannot in any way interfere
with your rights and the rights Of the
other nominees of said convention.
Mr.. AIonzo l.. Miles, of the firm,
and who actually conducted the case
before the Circuit Court and argued
for the plaintiffs in Tuesdays hearing
in this city, in an interview yester-
day said
"There seems to be an impression
that the result of Judge Jones opin-
ion in the Anne Arundel county case
is 60 strike down the ticket nominated
on the 26th day of July, 1905, / do not
so understand it. On the conrary, in
the light of Judge Jones opinion, it
seems to me that there is nothing left
for the nominees of the convention
held on the Goth day of July to do ex
cept to decline to participate in any
way in the primary meeting called
for August ~ and to proceed with
their canvass as the duly nominated
candidates of the Democratic party
without reference to or recognition of
any subsequent primary that may be
attempted to be held in that county. "
Mr.. Miles further said: 81 have
no doubt Of the ultimate printing of
the names of the Democratic nomi-
nees of the convention of July 26
upon the official ballot, but as to just
how it will be done or what proceed
ings will be taken is a matter for fu-
ture determination.

were to have been disposed OF last
night will be considered and disposed
of at a meeting TO be held at the col
lege ON Wednesday night of next

which are numbered to correspond

Use of Both Hands,

We should form the habit of using
each of our hands in turn in our one
handed activities. In few months
we might attain to fair ambidexteri-
ty, in a few years to the full use of
each hand. For this object the best
exercise is writing with the neglect
ed hand. If man learned to write
well with either hand almost all the
other unimanual graces would be
added unto him. There are many
other unimanual activities in which,
by changing the hand employed in
them, we might cultivate ambidex-
terity, as in carrying stick or UNI
brella, in fencing with foil, in
counting money, in changing our
watch pocket from side to side, in
changing the parting of our hair, in
the use of spoon in taking soup, in
domestic carpentry and in many 9th
er usual activities.--Sir James Saw

Weaver will continue his mission
ary work and later in the week
there will be public meeting at
which the organization of the anti

about.
"ln the meantime DR.. Weaver
has employed private counsel to

The constitutionality of the law
is the point in question.

A number of parents have EN-.
phatlcally declared that their

no matter if they be compelled to
remain away from school because
of the fact. One man SAID that,
should his child be kept away
