Widespread interest is being mani
tested in the general primary election
to be held in Henrico on Thursday OF
this week, for the nomination OF prac-
tically, att county officials. 1t has been
years since the old county has been
stirred to such an extent by political
contest. and it is freely asserted that
not for many day has the office
holding ring" been pushed SO hard by
its opponents.
There are a number OF reasons why
Interest centres particularly on the
coming primary. The recent and we'll
aired scandals. the unexplained charges
which lie against certain of the cam
didates, and the laxity in the admin
lstration Of some of the collnty's af-
fairs. have led to a widespread desire
for changes. In addition the primary
is of interest to politicians as being
the hrst to come since the annexation
to Richmond of considerable fringe
of territory.

tax requirement and the regulations
for registry, have also tended to re-

Heights and Chestnut HILL the vote
is chiefly country element.
1t is generally regarded as of a
better class intellectually and morally
than, taking it by and large, has ever
before held the affairs of the county in
Its hands, and there are many who
predict surprises and changes as a re.
suit of this change in the electorate.

FOR persons desiring 10 make q long

thereabouts, with the result that the
company was unable to handle the
business.
Fewer operators are employed 1t
night than In the daytime. and within
the past few weeks the congestion has
been so great that the company decided
TO dispense with the special night rates
altogether. and in this way compel the
public to be more uniform in Its calls.
The change In the schedule Will be
an unwelcome one to the public. A
reduction in the telephone rates at
night has been boon to business
people. and still more OF a privilege
TO those who take this means of com

this has served to increase the busi-

The increase in rates at Q time when

Sweeping regulations, which increase

cally every point in the United States.

In New York, where the general
statement was Issued. 1t was claimed
that the order was not the direct re-
built OF the telegraph strike, which has
Increased the business of the telephone
companies, but was due 10 other rea-
sons. 1t was explained that because
of the difference in day and night
tariffs the lines were idle during .
greater part OF the day, while they
were so badly congested after 6 o'clock
In the evening that the public could not
secure the accommodations demanded.
There has been talk heretofore that
these changes would be made, although
the sudden announcement WAS some
what surprising, and in some quarters
the opinion was expressed that event
uaIiy the teleBFbpa companies HOulu
take similar action. thus adding to the
expense OF communication between
cities.
Apparently the Southern Bell Tels-
phone Company, which, to all tntents
and purposes. is merely part of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company. has cut out the cheap night
rates 1t was said by officials ysnter-
day that the Southern Bell, for in

tween Richmond and Norfolk and near

after would be sixty cents from Rich
rond. day or night Heretofore the
Richmond-Norfolk night rate was

1t Is the general belief that the vol
ume of night business will show de-
cided decrease. with the possibility OF
an increase in the day trafic by bust
ness people. The day rate from Rich
