Extracts From Messaqe to the

1.-The old nominating system

people have demanded its refor
nation. All political parties
have recognized this demand.
No one can successfully dispute
the contention that no other
measure of State politics, discus.
sed in the last campaign, could
compare in Importance with pri
mary election reform. In the
campaign preceding the last gen
eral election the candidates of the
two principal parties went before
which pledged theml to
the passage of Legislation which
would restore the people control
OF political nominations. Repuo-
lican and democratic candidates
alike declared the mselves in fay
or Of such legislation and in re-
demplion of the pledge thus given
enacted the State primary law
which the Supreme Court has
declared detective.
"The duty Of the Legislature
is plain. The solemn pledges
given to the people in matter
touching the fundame entail condi-
ton of Republican government
should be redeemed. This will
not have been done until there
has been p .aced upon the statute
books law which, while com
plying with constitutional re.
qurements will secure the sub.
stantlal re ief sought. The peo-
pie have demanded the substance
instead of the sem bIance of par.
tlcipation in the nomination of
candidates. Their demand can
be answered only by the enact.
ment Of laws which will restore
to the people control of the en-
frances tC public life. 1t is our du
ty to see that this is accomplish.

New York. June g There Is not much detail to record of today's stock market In the later trading it fell into virtual stagnation. Operators seemed to find nothing in the days oc- currences to prompt speculative action and the dscontinuance of trading marked the determination to await a number of expected events before em- barking in new ventures.

An impression was abroad that some of the interests in the steel trade feel discouraged over the outlook The market position of the t s Steel stocks also came in for discussion.

 He expressed himself as "moderately optimistic" on the general business outlook, and referred to the earnings of the Western Union Telegraph company as tho best criterion of general bust ness, and said that political agitation against the railroads in the southwest had made a difference of between si,- ccO,000 and S5,oOo.00O in the net earnings of the Missouri Pacific. and added The stockholders may figure out for themselves what this means"
 Referring to the troubles ef the Wheeling and Lake Erie and tho Wa bash pttsburg Terminal, Mir Gould said:
 The receivership for the Wheeling and Lake Erie was inevitable after the Wabash Pittsburg Terminal had de- faulted. Tho latter unfortunately was overcapitalzed. We probably could have carried lt through. but thought it was time to stop on behalf of the Wabash That receivership marked the end of thc roadjuetments necessary In my properties.
