DISCHARGES
BUT LITTLE FREIGHT

It was expected that through the
auction sale to be held of the cargo
discharged here from the German ship
Tolosan, which arrived in distress, a
large number of boxes of fine Oregon
apples would be obtained by the local
dealers at reasonable price. This
has proved a disappointment, as there
have been only few pears sold and
the apples which have been brought
ashore have proved to be of an inferior
quality.
In all, about sixty tons of the cargo
from the Tolosan has been landed and
the larger part Of this consists of -four
which was damaged by salt water dur
ing the storm which broke the German
vessels steering gear, This will have
to be appraised by the insurance adj
justers before being placed on sale and
the local men will not have chance
to bid on it for some little time yet

ORIGIN OF CHURCH BELLS.

Paulinus, bishop of Nola, intro
duced the bell into the Christian wor-
ship in the year 400 A. D.
The first bells were made in Cam
pania. hence the term Campanile or
Bell tower.
The adoption of the bell into the ser
vices of the church soon gave the
chimes the eomforter's office in the
minds of the devout In their simple
faith the worshipers believed that con-
secrated bells had the power to prevent
storms. to drive away evil spirits and to
bring repose to the sufferer.

DEMOCRAT SAYS He.
WAS OFFERED 81
FOR HIS VOTE
WARMERS LlEUTENANTs SAID
TO HAVE ENROLLED MANY
DEMOCRATS AS REPUBLICANS
IN THE EAST SIDE, SATURDAY.

The Times has received definlto
information to the effect that War
ner Iieutenants have been active
In getting Democrats TO enroll az
Republicans for the purpose Of
Casting their vote for Fred M.
Warner for third nomination.
This has been especially the
case In the east side wards.
One Democrat, whose name The
Times has, was offered 81 TO de-
clare himself Republican and
vote for Warner. II Is understood
that this is the general price Of
fered.
AS this mans name has been
received in confidence, IL will not
be published, but The Times
stands ready to prove Its facts II
they are challenged.
This proceeding is taken as
showing the desperate straits to
which the Warner leaders are put
to make showing in Wayne
county.
To dispel the idea current among
many voters that the primary cleo
ton Tuesday will be largely formal
ity and will not result in the choice
of a Republican candidate for govern
or on account OF the 40 per cent quail
fication, DR.. J. w. McCausey, who has
charge of the Bradley bureau in De-
troit, issues the following statement:
Il wish to call attention to an enron
eous impression which seems to pre-
vail in many sections. That is that
no nomination Is likely to be made
In the primaries. Electors should un
derstand that the candidate who re
ceives plurality OF the votes cast
tnot less than forty per cent? will be
the nominee of the party. In general
with three candidates running 1.
wou' be quite unusual to find then,
so equal in strength that no one would
receive at least forty per cent. The
conditions of the present contest make
1t an absolute certainty that nom
inee for governor will be chosen by
the people themselves and the deci
sion will not be thrown into conven
ton. / sincerely hope that there will
be large vote tomorrow and thereby
give the primary law rigid test"
Enrolment Is Large.
In the neighborhood of ten thou
sand Republicans enrolled Saturday
for the state primary of Tuesday
There were already about 5000 Re
publicans enrolled so that more thar
90 per cent OF the voting strength OF
the party is entitled to vote In the
primary.
This does not compare very favor
ably with the enrolment Throughout
the state as about 80 per cent OF the
rural Republicans are said TO be en-
rolled II is more than was expected
in the city. however, owing to the en-
rollment being special registration
