mitteeman in the campaign, and he
told them that If they would make an
energetic effort to bring out the vote
on election day they would carry Mar

And If we do this it will mean the
reelection of the Hon. Albert J. Bev-

i Committeeman Cheer.
/ This sentiment was cheered by the
precinct committeeman. The Marion
, Club is the largest Republican club in
the state, and one OF the largest in the
United States. 1t is not organized In
the interest of any faction, but always
works for the good of the whole ticket
regardless of everything. IN Its mem
bership there are Republicans who
have been on opposite sides in the par
ty organization. but when the time
comes to get busy in a campaign they
lay aside their party differences and
go after the common enemy-the
Democrats. And so it is this year
One OF the strong features of the
Indiana situation this year is the faci
that the Republicans have nominated
for congress Linton A. Cox. the father
of the Indianapolis sixty cent gas law
Cox was a member of the state senate
when the demand for cheaper ga:
came up. and he framed bill which
provided that sixty cents should be the
maximum price at which gas might b'
sold in the city. In other words, tbs
} price of gas was limited to sixty cents
a thousand feet At that time tbs
price was ninety cents. A terrific
!, fight was made against the bill by TIN

CALLS IT SOCIALISTIC

WASHINGTON, ID. c., juno e.
With all regular republicans record
ed in favor of the postal savings bank
bill, ns reported out Of the republican
caucus, the prospect for the passage
of this measure seems rs certain to-
day as is possible in these rebeiiious
days
It Is not expected that the demo-
Gratis can find sufficient insurgent aid
to cause much OF a row. Few of the
insurgents who refused to sign the
call fo- the caucus are definitely
against the measure, and with such
influential members OF this faction
els Victor Mur6ock and Representa-
tive Madison. OF Kansas. openly ia
voring it. the regulars have high hope
OF Il favorable trip through the House.
Many Of the insurgents who remain
ed away from the caucus did so sim
ply ON principle Representative Nell
son, of Wisconsin, one of them. for
instance, said that his attitude to-
ward the bill had nothing TO do with
his refusal to join the caucus.
The time for consideration of the
bill by the House, AZ generally esti-
mated at from two to three weeks.
The meeting OF the caucus last night
disposed OF one OF the most trouble
some sections of the bill, which re-
lates 60 the disposition of postal saw
ings funds. In the bill as adopted
by the caucus. postal saving deposit
tories are provided. the funds TO be
deposited at interest with govern
ment funds for repayment OF the
total fund, 65 per cent. Is TO remain
on depos.t in the State or Territory
where deposited. 30 per cent may
be Withdrawn by the trustees for in
yestment in United States securities
and 6 per cent must be held as
permanent reserve in the United
States treasury.
This section caused Representative
Southwick, OF New York. who had
signed the caucus call and attended
all three OF the previous meetings. 10
withdraw last night In great anger.
He called this part OF the bill So
cialistic. The democrats are expected
to make a decided stand against the
section.

GRANTS NEW TRIAL
IN MURDER CASES
Judge Gordon of buckingham
Has WrightPerkins Papers
Sent TO Higher Court.

Especial to The Richmond v'rginian.)
BUCKINGHAM. Juns 2.-The court
records in the Wright and Perkins
cases have been copied and tho papers
sent on to the supreme court. Judge
Gordons action In granting new trial
In the case against Edward Jones was
q surprise to many people as Jones
was found guilty on practically the
same evidence as was given in the
Wright and Perkins cases. In April.
1903, two old brothers who lived in a
log hut in a lonely part OF Bucking-
ham were robbed and murdered. and
then their bodies cremated. The gov
ernor offered q reward, the board OF
aupervisors offered a reward, and the
State bureau Of observance took part
in trying to And out the nturderers.
Three men, Wright, Perkins, and
Jones were arrested, and at their trial
two negro boys swore that they wit
messed the killing and told In horrible
detail Of the part each OF the &C
cused took In the affair. These two
boys were held In jail and are sttn
held there al witnesses.
Should the Supreme Court grant q
writ Of error and remand these cases
for retrial It 10 not likely that a jury
competent to sit can be found in this
county. Thomas and William Stew
art who lost their lives when this
terrible tragedy was enacted. were
nlisers and were supposed to have ac-
cumulated considerable money. they
were both bachelors and had no very
aoar relatives.
