Officials and clerks at the Capitol
We're again disturbed yesterday by de-
bris falling from the attic over the
Offices of the Governor and tho Secre-
tary of the Commonwealth, the result
being hurried conference between
the Governor and the Register of the
Land Office. The latter was directed
to at once put in false floor, in
order to prevent danger while the
present repairs are in progress.
Colonel Richardson said lie would
proceed Immediately to carry out the
orders. and within an hour he had
carpenters on the scene. The work of
removing the concrete will not last
for more than week or ten days. but
in the meantime, unless such precau-
tions are taken, the lives of employees
and visitors on the upper floor of the
building are in constant danger. y

MUST STAND BY
PRIMARY PLAN.
Senator Martin Instructed to Vote
for It's Retention at
Roanoke.

PERHAPS the worst setback the oppo-
nents of the primary system in Nir-
Sinia have received during the cam
paigu now in progress is found in the
proceedings OF the Albemarle county
convention. Senator Thomas s. Mar
tin and Hon. John B. Moon were elect
ed delegates to Roanoke. They were
instructed, along with the other dele
gates. to vote to maintain the system
and 10 support a resolution to have
the expenses borne by the State.
The meeting is understood to have
been q joint one. composed of delegates
from the county of Albemarle and the
city of Charlottesville, and the signiti-
cant part of the whole matter, as it
is understood here, is that Judge r.
Il. w. Duke, who made his famous out
cry against all manner of primaries.
Was not put on the delegation. Con-
gresham James Hay, of the Seventh
District, who is a loyal supporter of
the primary system. was present and
addressed the conyention. Senator
Martin was also called upon, and made
ringing speech.
Want state to Pay Cost.
The instructions of the .Albemarle
convention call upon the State to pay
tho expenses of tho primary, and, COM
ing from the home of Senator Martin
and Judge Duke, they have stimulated
the original primary advocates to con-
tinue their fight for perfecting the
plan along these lines.
In discussing the matter last night
in view of this meeting, a prominent
State Senator said:
Il begin to feel hopeful. now that
at the next session of the Legislature
adopted along proper lines. l advo-
Gated such bill at the last session,
and my views have undergone no

OVER PRODUCTION NOT LIKELY
Alfalfa Seed Used in Manufacture
of a Beautiful Dye

Now that the farmers of the Hager.
man valley. after two years test. are
making more clear money from their
crops of alfalfa seed than any other
crop they have ever raised, except
fruit, II behooves the farmer of other
4 parts of the county to investigate the
merits of alfalfa seed as a crop for a
{ steady money maker.
Probably the first consideration that
needs to be looked into is whether all
parts Of the county will raise alfalfa
seed as successfully as the Snake River
Canyon 1t will take an actual test
to determine this fully, but as the
chief difference is one of elevation and
soil and alfalfa hay Is a splendid crop
in all parts of the country The next
consideration is whether alfalfa seed
will maintain the present high price in
the market.
The experience of the past is prob
ably the best guide in forming con-
clusion on this point. The writer mas
watched the market more or less for
the past fifteen years and in all that
time the price has been high. nearly
as high as at present. Ifit We're used
only for seeding new fields there would
be danger of an over supply. But
there is a steady demand for the seed
to be used in the manufacture Of dye
whose beautiful color can be obtained
from no other source. 1t IS asserted
that large quantities Of alfalfa seed are
annually exported 80 Belgium and other
countries of Europe for this very pur
pose Then again the home demand for
seeding new fields Is constantly increas- .
ing and It is not every part of our ex-
tensive country that Is adapted to the
raising OF the seed.
The home market for alfalfa hay is

A. S. Crane, expert on hydrolics, all Of
these gentlemen being high in the coun-
sells of the J. G. White company, in
spected the proposition this week, with
a view to utilizing the fall in the Little
Wood River just below town, for a
hydro o-electric plant. About 300 horse
power can easily be developed, to be
used for lighting, for pumping water,
and for miscellaneous power. 1t will
be one of the finest little plants in the
state.

liable to be glutted any season and the
charge tor transportation TO distant
market is too high TO make II paying
crop, but the seed can be shipped to a
foreign market at 4 small comparative
cost and the farmer can sell his crop in
his home market without trouble or risk.
The best results obtained in the Val
ley have been secured By cutting the
first clop for hay and letting the next
crop go to seed. The hay after being
thrashed makes q splendid feed for
all kinds of stock. equaling a half crop
OF hay. if not better.
With an average OF seventy five dollars
an acre for alfalfa seed alone and one
hundred dollara an acre Tor seed and
hay combined for the season of 1905. in
the southern part of Lincoln county.
the farmers of the central and north
ern portions of the county can well af-
ford 10 sit up and take notice and at
least demonstrate whether q similar
record can be made on the rancher out
side of the Snake River Canyon.
