for what was accomplished. ! I'm here
TO affirm land I speak as one who KEEP
close watch upon the proceedings OF
the SESSION. that every obstacle thrown
In the way OF the passage OF the re-
forms put in my proclamation, every
delay occssioned, and the defeat OF
several measures which should have
been passed, were directly attributable
to we'll known Sanders men in the two
houses.
IL am not to be understood as chsrg-
ing that MIR. Sanders instigated this.
l am only stating facts.
1T is we'll known, however, that Mr..
Sanders did not favor the extra ses-
sion. He so declared in an interview.
81 am here further to affirm that
men in the legislature, who are strong
supporters of his, would in my opin'
ion and belief, and that OF Others
have defeated the principal reform
measure introduced by Mr.. Herman
and other reformers, who arr not sup
porters Of Mr.. Sanders, ii they nae
dared.
ATTITUDE OF THE PEOPLE.
This opinion and belief was founded
upon two things, viz: The hostile
attitude of the Sanders press toward
the extra session following my pro-
clsmation converting it, and the ctua
conditions which developed In tne
kGeneral Assembly in the first week OF
the session.
"But an indignant people would
have fixed the responsibility for such
defeat where it belonged. and SO, how
ever nauseous the dose proved u
many, it was taken.
"Let Mr.. Sanders be fair in his
statements about me and about the
administration, especiall, as not being
. candidate for any office myself, l AIN
not on the stump to meet him in debate.
In referring to anything written or
said by me, let him give his audience
my own language, SC that they may
Judge of its meaning themselves and
not be compelled TO accept his version
Of same, or the construction he might
SEQ proper to put upon IT,"

vada, IT'S. tlso6) held that an agree
ment before IN election to share the
salary and iees Of an Office, in con-
sider.tion Of the Plsintin's using his
influence TO elect the defendants TO such
Office, is void: and Leonard, Judge,
in deciding the case, said:
"It is undoubtedly void, as con-
trary to public policy. 1t was in
terms promise to use not only per-
sonal effort, but personal influence,
among the voters Of Storey County to
secure defendants election. Its in.
duence upon plaintiff was the same as
though defendant had promised to
give him q definite sum of money in
case of election. Success would bring
reward, while defeat would result, not
only in loss Of coveted profits, but
time and labor rs we'll. BY it plain.
tits love Of gain was stimulated, and
= great temptation placed before him
to promote his " interest regardless
of public good. This arrangement
may have induced him to influence ten
men, or . hundred, to vote for de-
PENDANT in opposition to pre-conceived
political principles, and fixed ideas OF
right and duty: and too, when they
have preferred his opponent as an in.
cumbent of the Office. Such q contract
cannot be upheld. Its tendency was
to corrupt the people upon whose in.
tegrity and intelligence the safety OF
the State and Nation depends-to lead
voters to work for individual interes,
rather than the public welfare.-Adv.

Submarines are Tested.

NEWPORT, r. L., May 12.-All
American records for quick driving
by a submarine boat were broken
yesterday when the submarine Octo-
pus went through series of extra
ordinary tests in Coddington Cove.
Weather conditions were not favor

The principal test was to deter
mine whether the Octopus would be
able to get submerged quickly if an
enemy should be sighted. Running
at full speed on the surface, propel-
led by gasoline engines, the Octopus
received a signal from members of
the trial board on board the tender
Nina Immediately the engines were
stepped and power was furnished by
were adjusted, the submarine took
thirty-saven tons of water into her
tanks and sank to a depth Of twenty
feet This was accomplished in four
and a half minutes. A second test
reduced the time by about half a
minute.
The next test was to gain infor
nation as to the ability of the boat
to make a complete turn within
given area. A test was also made
to determine the ability of the Octo-
pus to come to a full stop while run
ming at full speed under water.
When coming to the surface from
one of her dives, the Octopus sighted,
in the lifting fog, tug and tow of
two barges. The submarine dived
and escaped the danger of a collision
AT another time when the Octopus
was running awash at a speed of ten
knots she dived and was completely
submerged in twenty-three seconds
