 While Others Doom Is Sealed.

Tn the list of twenty-six decisions. handed down by the Alabama Supreme Court yesterday, several important criminal cases that have been pending for the last two years in various courts are finally adjudicated. To some who

NEW CASTLE COUNTY COMMITTEE MET.
Arrangements Made For Holding Primaries
For Convention Delegates on April 4.

The New Castle County Republican
Committee held it's first meeting of
the year at the rooms of the Young
Mems Republican Club, Friday after
noon. Arrangements were made for
holding primaries on April A for the
election of delegates to the State Con-
vention, at Dover on April Z, which
will name six delegates and as many
alternates, to the Republican national
convention.
Arrangements were also made for
the election of new county commit
tee at the forthcoming State conven-
tion. A new state committee will be
chosen at the saTne time. The county
committee did not take up the matter
of changing the party rules so as tC
nominate candidates in convention in
stead of at open primaries. This will
probably be included in new drafr
of rules to be adopted by the forth
coming state convention. The count.
committee adjourned to meet the las
Saturday in March.

HOW HUGHES WON RECOONlTlON.
The Measures Inst Brought Him Before the
People as Statesman.

The insurance investigation gave
the Governor a national recognition.
The two things that gave him national
reputation and lifted him into the
statesamn class, and emphasized MS
Presidential availability, were MS
veto of the The Two-cent Fare Bill
and his drafting the Public Utilities
Bill and approving it when passed.
The legislatures of many states were
making laws limiting passenger fares
to two cents mile, on the theory that
two cents a mile gave the railroads
abundant profits, while higher rate
than two cents a mile was an imposl-
tion on the public. The measures
were very popular with the voters
The New York Legislature passed such
a law, and Just when the voters and
newspapers were ready to throw up
their hats and hurrah for the measure,
10! the Governor vetoed it. Do you
see the picture? The first thought,
of course, is: "He has sold US out.
That's what we get for making a cor
poration lawyer Governor. But wait
he has reasons, real ones. He says
he doen't know whether two cents
mile is enough for the railroads; ne
doen't know whether three cents
mile is too much. He doesn't know
anybody who does know. Wouldn'
it be better to find out? Here is th'
Public Utilities Commission, designe'
to find out just such things, not onl,
about railroads, but about other en-
terprises engaged in the public ser
vice. If any man in the cOmmunit
has grievance against public ser
! vice cooperation, he can appeal directl
to this commission and have the mat

Thomas A. Edison is now we'll on

which it would fear would bring on
complication, has entirely gone, it
was announced Saturday at the Man

When the great invenor's temperature
dropped to normal he fell into an easy
sleep and was so much improved that
for the first time since he was taken
to the hospital the physicians were
satisfied to leave him alone in the
care of a nurse. Mrs. Edison, who

perform a second operation, has re
