At the general election in 1908 III
members of the supreme court arc
be chosen, to succeed Chief Justice 4
z. Hadley and Justices Milo A. RoIt
and Herman D. Grow. The nameo =,
all candidates will be on the tic,ot
without party designation, and tbo
three receiving the highest vote will
be nominated. The secretary of stota
is directed by the law to put ONLY thO
names of the three candidates tbrs
nominated on the ballot for the general
election in November.
This means that the judges will nroc
tically be elected at the September nri
naries, instead of at the Novembor
election. With only the names of tbo
three candidates on the general eloc.
ton ballot, it would of course he i'm.
possible to elect any one in opnosi.
ton to either of them.
So many republican candidates Arc
likely to go before the September pr.
naries as to divide the party vote and
result in some democratic candidate
receiving plurality. This would leave
the republicans thus defeated off the
November ballot. 1t is the history Of
politics that the majority party is
always in the field with a multitude Of
candidates, while the minority parties
generally unite on one man. II ia
easy to see that the democrats, by hay
lug not to exceed three candidates for
the supreme bench at the September
primaries next year, are quite likely to
elect one or two Of them unless the
republicans also unite on a few candi
dates.
The new primary law likewise elm.
mates United States senators and
/ members of the legislature from the
second choice provisions. Section IS
Of the law provides that where there
are four or more candidates of any
party for one state or congressional
Office the voter shall designate both
"a first and second choice. But section
rs provides that Judges of the su.
Ipreme and superior courts. state sen.
ators and representatives shall not
! be considered state officers within the
meaning Of the provisions of this act
jrelating to first choice and second
voting"

feet dating from April l follows:
The pay of conductors in the pas
senger service to be increased $40
per month; that of baggagemen $3.50,
and that of flagmen and brakemen
$3.50 per month, as applied to the
schedules in effect November /, 1906
The railroads are not to make any
reductions in crews or increase in
mileage for the purpose of offsetting
the increased wages given the passen-
ger trainmen.
Overtime in the passenger service is
to be allowed on the basis of IS miles
per hour, to be computed for each part
of the run separately. Time is to be-
gin at the scheduled time of leaving.

.struction train service are to make no
increase in the rates paid for such
service.
The increases granted in the aggre-
gate are to apply also to rates of spec
ial services specified in the individual
schedule.
Upon roads having a better basis

lance of this agreement is not to act
as a reduction.

TRAlNMEN SIGN AGREEMENT.
Controversy Between Western Roads
and Employees Settled.

Chicago-The general agreement
which was reached between western
railroads and their employees in the
train service, through the mediation
of Commissioners Knapp and Neill,
has been signed, and the committee
members, who have been in almost
continuous session here for three
months, left for their homes. The
Brotherhood of Firemen. which has
been negotiating for practically the
same demands as the trainmen and
conductors, have about reached an
agreement with the roads. 1t is the
general belief that the firemen will be
granted the same concessions as the
conductors and trainmen.
