was one Of the first prominent Republi-
cans of New Jersey to advocate the nomi-
nation Of Secretary Taft. came out to-day
with a formal Interview supporting the
candidacy of ex-Gov. Franklin Murphy Of
New Jersey for Vice President. Mr..
Dryden laid particular stress upon the
need for a business executive as a candi-

His Endorsement OF Mr.. Murphy is con-

LIGHT VOTE P0LLED
General Apathy in Tennessee
Over Things PoIiti-
cal.
TIRED OF AGITATION.

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. Both Dem
ocrats and Republicans express conf
dence in the result of voting in Ten
nessee. The consensus of opinion on
both sides, however, is that a light
vote will be polled, except in some
counties where heated congressional
or county fights have been in progress.
This light vote is expected to follow
the apathetic conditions which have
prevailed throughout the state during
the entire campaign.
The fact that there promises to be
a comparatively large silent vote adds
a degree of uncertainty to the result
that might not otherwise exist. To-
day, there is more talk concerning the
probable result of the election than at
any previous time during the cam.
paign.
The apathy which has prevailed
throughout the state is chiefly accred.
tied to the fact that Tennessee has
been surfeited with politics for many
months past and the people are tired
of political agitation.

State.
CANNON TO BE RETURNED.
ALTHOUGH He HAS BITTER oP-
POSITION 1T Is EXPECTED THAT
HIS PLURALITY WILL BE BE-
TWEEN 5000 AND $500.

Chicago, ILL.,, Nov. 3.-Rousing meet
ings held in many places throughout
Illinois last night marked the close Of
the active work OF the campaign. The
contest in both the national tickets
was over SO far as political manage
ment was concerned and the fight left
with the voters.
The Republicans claim the state by
100000. while the Democrats class it
as doubtful.
The Democrats, in fact, have strong
Governor, Adlai e. Stevenson. and the
fight, in this particular, is somewhat
in doubt.
The Republicans, however, assert
that they will return Charles S. Den
cen to the gubernatorial chair by a
heavy plurality.
1t is impossible to predict with any
accuracy the political complexion Of
the next Congressional delegation
from this state, save it will be largely
Republican. The Democrats claim
stoutly and, with some apparent reas-
on, that they will gain number of
Representatives. 1t Is generally con-
ceded, however, that they will be in a
decided minority.
The friends of Speaker Cannon con-
f1dently predict his reelection by a
majority of from 5000 to 1900, while
the Democrats claim that Henry c..
Bell, their standard bearer In this dis
trict, surely will defeat Cannon.
There is every indication that the
next state Legislature, which elects a
successor to Senator Albert J. Hop
kins, will be Republican.

PRESENT SYSTEM
IS MORE COSTLY
Mayors Family Objects to
Present Time of Holding
City Court.
POLICE LIKE PRESENT PLAN
BY HOLDING COURT IN AFTER
NOON MANY OF INCONvENlEN-
CES OF THE PAST HAVE BEEN
DONE AWAY WITH.

Another objection is being raised to
the city court being held at an after
noon hour and this time it comes from
members of the mayors official family.
The protest is entered because of the
increased expense to the city. The
city allows 10 cents per meal for each
prisoner fed and when they remain at
the city Jail until the afternoon ses-
sion of court they have to be provided
with dinner. This is the cause of the
additional expense. When six or seven
prisoners are in the city Jail and each
is supplied with breakfast and dinner
the increase in expense is not incon-
siderable.
The members of the police depart
ment are almost unanimously in favor
of the change to the afternoon hour.
Those on night duty do not have to
delay their hours of slumber while
preparations are being made to con-
vene court, nor to await the pleasures
of the attorneys. There has been no
case of importance arise in city court
since the change of time was made, and
none requiring a jury, so that no test
has been made which gives these mat
tiers consideration. However, If jury
trials are not begun until the after
noon and the customary delays in
Cured such as have featured previous
cases, it will mean more than one day s
service for the jury in each instance.
One of the greatest drawbacks that
is expected to be encountered by the
new plan relates to the duties of the
prosecuting attorney. When the cir
cult court is in session and important
trials under consideration, the prose-
cutor can not be at both courts at the
same time. This means one court will
have to suffer Inconvenience or the
work must be turned over to deputy.
Although the time has been changed
for three weeks the plan has not I'M
dergone a thorough trial and for this
reason is being continued indefinitely.
