Huffrian's Bill.

With few amendments Sena-
tor Isaac Huffman's primary cleo
tion bi ] went through the Senate
/ Tuesday with but three votes
against it. The proposed law is
copied after the Butler county
method, which has been in vogue
for years and applies to all nom.
nations for county, municipal and
township officers, Justices of the
Peace, members Of the Boards of
Education, mem bers of the Gener-
al Assembly and Judges of the
Common Pleas Court, where one
county constitutes a subdivision.
These primary elections shall be
held in September, and will be in
charge of the Deputy State Board
of Supervisors of Election, and all
penalties against fraudulent vot-
ing shall be governed by those
sections of the Revised Statues
that relate to general elections.
The Howe and Hanover bills,
! providing for the taxation of fran
chises of.public service corpora
tions, were given an open hearing
in the Senate this evening. Mr..
Godfrey Jaeger, of b Lake
Shore, made the principal argu-
ment against the bill, giving num-
erous figures to refute the state
ment that the railroads were not
paying their share of taxes. May
or Jchason answered Mr.. Jaeger.
Another meeting will be held,
probably next Tuesday.
The Senate adopted the report
of the Committee on Benevolent
Institutions, which reported back
with favor the appointment of
Harry F. Taylor, of Portsmouth,
as a member of the Boare of Trus-
tees of the Gallipolis State Hospit-
al.
The polls are to be open from
$3.50 in the morning until $50 in
the evening. Both political par
ties are to hold their primaries az
the same time, and ballot boxes
are to be separate. The ballots
shall be prepared from nomina-
tion papers, which must contain
declaration that the signers will
support the candidate mentioned
in their petition, and no signer
will be allowed to afflx his sigma
ture save to one paper. The pa
pers are to be signed by at least
l per cent of the party vote in at
least one sixth of the election pre-
cincts of the district, and in the
aggregate not less than per cent.
The ballots are to be preserved Cor
three months for investigation.
No person shall lie allowed to vote
at the primaries if he has receiv-
ed or has been promised anything
for his vote. 1t was provided
b a t the Central Committee
should consist of as many MEM
bers as, and should be elected in
such manner as, the eoutgoing COM
mittee should determine, either by
wards, townships or precincts.

Petit or Ricketts,.

There lbe a different story
told when the delegates gather al
Pomeroy to name Nthe Judge fol-
the new subdivision of the Seventh
Common Pleas District. This is
the place fer which Otto Vollen
weider, of Vinton County, has
been seeking to get for many
years. In the Eleventh District
Congressional fight, which ended
at Lancaster, it was frequently
discussed and oftentimes appeared
as part of the dlckering that was
going on. Politicians say that
Vollenweider did not help his
cause any by his participation in
that celebrated contest. 1t is un-
derstood that Hooking County will
have a candidate in opposition to
Vollenweider, and he VIII be either
+. o. Petit or Edward Ricketts,,
of Logan. 1t is not yet settled
whether Hollis Johnson, Of Gallia
County, will go into the contest.
When here last week he asserted
that he had not yet made up his
mind. Should his decision be in
the affirmative the fight will be
complicated and long-drawn-out.
In his open letter to the voters
Of the Seventh District General
Grosvenor without mentioning his
name declared that Vollenweider
had been promised the Judgeship,
and added prophetically that he
would not get it because those
who had made the promise had no
intention of'keeping it.
Congressman Grosvenor was in
Columbus and to-day, having come
out from Washington to take part
IN the suit against Deputy Audi
tor Scott at Athens as his attor-
ney. This morning he had con-
ference at the Hotel Hartman with
Postmaster G. w. C. Perry, of
Chillicothe, and Frank Dye, of
Meigs County, Superintendent of
the Delaware Home for Girls.
That the conference was a poli.i-
cal one every one supposed to be
true, but it's purpose is not known.
Both Meigs and Ross Counties are
In the Fourth Judicial Circuit, as
well as in his Congressional dis.
trict. At 1.-THE Neil House at the
same time were Charles III. Brysen
and Israel Foster, of Athens, two
of the three triumvirs that brought
about his downfall. They have
been here for two days upon mat
ters connected with politics and
the Ohio University, which is To-
Gated in their town. The inter.
view of Albert Douglas published
yesterday in which he declared
that he proposed to make his cam
p.ign without calling upon Gen.
eral Grosvenor for special assist
ance, provoked no end Of discus
SION and was talked over by both
factions. The triumvirs were of
the opinion that General Grosven-
or will endeavor to use his in
fiuence for primary election bill
that will be of use in the future.
They do not think that he will
openly do anything to accomplish
the defeat of Douglas, who by his
interview has put the proposition
up to the Congressman.
Regarding the intimation convey
ed by the Douglas interview Of
doubt as to whether he would sup

FROM MORAL STANDPOINT.


On Thursday of this week
the great evangelistic meetings
at the Methodist church of this
city Will be concluded. DR.. J
Manhood, the noted evangelist, I
who has had the meetings in
charge. has demonstrated that !
he is leader of men and !
cleaner of souls, of great !
power.
, Speaking from n. point of I
view without the church, the }
meetings have done much tow

mnnity generally. Were a
preacher to speak only upon B
the moral aspect of the Christ Z
ian life. the resulting good to !

No loss, but great gain must 7
result from the evangelizing Z
work that has been so success Z

1t was said that in the great Z
revival held in PHILADELPHIA 4
many years ago by Moody and Z
Sankey that the city gained I
as much in the higher citizen z

did in the souls that were say
ed to the Christian life.
Today, in that representa- 7
tive American city Philadelphia I
Is oecurring-a revival that has 7
unnamed the whole city with a 7
nigh resolve to lead a better 7
moral and Christian life. Fac I
tories and great mercantile in I
stituitons have been shut down 7

ings. The state of Pennsvlyan- I
Ia granted the use of IFS splen- 7
did military establishment. the 7
hrst regiment armory without 7
cost for the advancement of the 7
great work.
We cannot but see that the 7

everlasting impress upon this 7
city. so far as the unlift has 7
