would make good candidates. These
names would he placed on the ballot
through the filing of petitions by speci-
fed numbers of voters. The voters
would mark with cross one name IN
each of those groups. thus nominating
directly the party's candidates for office.
All this would appear on the left side OF
the ballot
On the right side, separated by
heavy black line, would appear names
of candidates for party offices-for state
committeeman, county committeeman
and the like. These candidates names
would appear on the ballot only through
the filing of petitions by groups OF party
voters. One name in each list would be
marked by the voters. who thus would
elect directly their representative in ad-
minstering the party's affairs
The Committee Candidate"
The process of designating the com
mittee candidate" is exactly the same
under the Cobb measure as under the
Hinman- Green bill Not earlier than
nine weeks nor later than six weeks be-
fore primary day the committee IN
district where a candidate is 10 be
named at the primaries must hold a
public meeting. On rollcaH each men,
her is TO announce his choice, if any, for
the committee candidate" for the office
in question. Then the baIloting is to
begin. each member voting as his name
is called. The man thus designated by
a majority of the party committee he
comes the committee candidate" FOR
office. and his name leads the group on
the primary ballot under the title of that
office.
Any group of voters in the party
within three weeks before primary day
may put up against him another candi-
date for nomination at the primaries by
filing with the proper official a petition
setting forth their choice Then on pri-
mary day the voters choose between
these candidates by marking their pref
erence on the ballot
Only duly enrolled party members may
take part in the primaries. The Cobb
bill, as did the Hinman- Green measure.
provides for statewide enrolment
under the charge of proper officials, and
for the conduct of the primaries by the
regular inspectors of elections, just as
on Election Day. Thus. it's supporters
predict, there will be an end put to a
practice now prevalent in some counties
whereby the county boss, through his
men who control the enrolment books,
refuses to enroll as party members

No other medicine for woman's ills

icine we know of has such record
of cures of female ills as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
For more than 80 years it has been
curing female complaints such as
Inflammation, liberation, local weak
nesses, fibroid tumors, irregularities,
periodic pains, backache, indigestion
and nervous prostration, and it is
unequalled for carrying women safely
through the period of change of life.
It costs but little to try Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and,

Can Control Convention
RUTLAND MAN NEARLY WON
Did Not Secure Enough Delegates at
caucuses to Win Nomination on
First Ballot

Montpelier, June 15.-Dr. John A.
Mead OF Rutland came dangerously
close to winning the governorship
nomination in the caucuses last night
but it now appears that he is about
80 delegates short of the required
number and that the delegates sup
porting Hon. James X. Batchelder of
Arlington will have the balance of
power in the convention which sits In
this city June 80
Incomplete returns indicate that DIR
Mead has about 300 delegates while
a large proportion of the unpledged
delegates are known to be supporters
of Fleetwood. The actual condition
of affairs is that the Rutland and the
Morrisvile candidate will have about
an equal show when the first ballot
is cast.
1t appears now that Batchelder has
between 80 and 100 delegates with S5
delegates unreported and unaccounted
for DR.. Mead carried about half the
towns in Rutland county and the del
egates from the balance are known TO
be avowedly anti-Mead. DR.. Mead
ran Unexpectedly strong In Addison,
Chittenden and Franklin counties.
The Rutland Herald figures up to
this noon gave DR.. Mead 264 and
Fleetwood l47.

Injunction
NO INFRINGEMENT SHOWN
Foreign Avators Now Likely to Enter
Big Race From Chicago
to New York
NO INFRINGEMENT SHOWN

New York, June 15.-Users of the
Curtiss and Paulham aeroplanes may
now fly without giving bond covering
possible violations of the Wright
Brothers patents, at least until after
the trial of the injunction suits instr
tuted BY the Wrights In the United
States courts here and in Buffalo sew
eral months ago This United States
Circuit Court of Appeals is unani-
nous decision handed down yesterday
vacated the preliminary injunctions
granted on behalf of the Wright COM
pany against the Herring-Curtiss com
pany and Louis Paulhan, pending the
trial of the suits.
The decision will have a far reach
ing effect upon pending amateur con
tests in this country, including the
$3.50 race between New York and
Chicago arranged by the New York
Times and the Chicago Evening Post
and that between New York and st
Louis planned by the World and the
st. Louis Post-Dispatch. Foreign av
iators may now come into these con
tests without having to furnish an ex
pensiye bond, and the entry lists are
expected to be augmented in conse
quence. incidentally, one of the trou
blesome problems of those arranging
the contests has been favorably set
tied.
The injunction against the Herring
Curtiss company was granted by
Judge Hazel in Buffalo and tina
against Paulhan in the United States
Circuit Court here by Judge Hand. i
was alleged in both cases that the
aeroplanes of the defendants infring
ed basic patents held by the Wrights
and that the Wrights stood to be ser
iously injured financially. Later OIL
an arrangement was made by which
Curtiss might fly under bond protect
ing the Wrights as to any possible
loss. There was a considerable pur
suit after Paulhan to obtain servic,
of the injunction order, and finally IN,
Frenchman got away TO Europe with
out any definite arrangement beinl
made covering the use OF his aero
plane during the tendency OF tn
