BYRD NOT SHAKEN

Secs No Reason for Changes in
Primary Bill-Mr. Ellyson
Disscnts.
-----------
PUBLIC STUDIES PLAN
--------------
Subcommittee Will Take Measure
and Make Final Report
as to Its Value
? UBLIC STUDIES PLAN

Speaker Byrd has heard or seen
nothing TO convince him that he ought
to make single change in tile pro-
Visions of his tentative primary bill.
although he is open to suggestion
and conviction. Since tho original
publication of the proposed measure
in The Times-Dispatch most OF tile
newspapers OF the state have taken =
shot at its requirements, while many,
individuals have spoken or written to
the Speaker. For the most part these
criticisms arc commcndatory. although
in most cases doubt is expressed rs TO
tho wisdom OF ono or another OF the
| features of tho bill.
In few instances there Is objection
to plurality nominations, but tho pro-
vision mostly disapproved OF is that
making the primary compulsory upon
all major parties. Mr.. Byrd stands
| firmly upon this as upon all other re-
quiremcnts of the bill. He takes tho
position that if the primary plan has
become part OF governmental ma
chnery to the extent that 1t requires
lcgalization, 1t should apply equally
to all parties of any Importance as to
size.
state Chairman Ellysou docs not
share this view. He approves the
primary system as a whole, thinks it
should be legalized. and In general be-
loves the provisions of the Byrd bill
to be fair and reasonable. But he
doubts the advisability or forcing tho
primary upon possibly unwilling
parties. Were he a member of
minority party, he thinks, he would
| not relish having the majority dictate
his party's plan OF choosing nominees,
and he does not like to treat another
| party as he would not like to be done
/ by.
| subcommittee Meeting.
/ Mr.. Ellyson. in his capacity of State
Chairman, has had more intimate ac-
! auatntance with the primary plan than
4 has any other one man In the State.
4 Upon him has devolyed the direction
OF its execution In all except some
n local instances since the very incep
ton of the policy. It has been neces-
sarv therefore. that he give it much
thought and the most careful atten-
ton. His observations and experiences
| will without doubt be communicated
to the subcommittee of the Democratic
State Committee appointed to draft
and submit to the Legislature pri-
mary bill. when that subcommittee
| meets next Wednesday at Mr.. Ellyson's
/ home.
Several of the members of the COM
mittee have been heard from, TO the
effect that they will attend the meet
/ ing. 1t is expected that nearly every
member will be present TO take up
this important matter.
The Byrd primary bill Will be pre-
I scented to the subcommittee for it's
consideration. Any person who wishes
To be heard on the subject of pri-
maries. either for or against the Byrd
| measure or any other proposition re-
garding the practical workings of pri-
maries. Will be given hearing. The
subcommittee desires all the light 1t
can get.

The Interest One Gets,

1t is not often the range editor
gets nipped on an account, because
his dealings are for the most part
with honorable business men-of
which we have the greatest mum Der
OF any like section in the union. But
occasionally one runs foul of an
exile from the ranks of honor even
in this section, and marks an &C.
count ID. B." on his ledger as a
gentle reminder for future time.
One might even forgive this occas-
ional displacement of confidence
and usually does, forgetting that
the fellow whose cash is better than
his word ever had the misfortune
to be cast among honorable men, if
he would take the bunch the police
give the man with no visible means
of support and get out of sight and
stay there. But they do not always
do 80. In fact we have in mind a
certain man who has gone "broke"
in several range towns, whose name
we have on our ledger, who is now
in the city and who is evidently
taking special pride in paying the
interest he considers due on his &C.
count by giving US all the work he
can throw our way-nit.
The usual interest one receives,
as all business men will bear attest.

Another motion by Alderman
Heritage called attention to the
necessity of cleaning the sidewalks
of the city of snow during the win
ter months. Heretofore there has
been little attention paid to the
side streets of the city in this re-
spect, and an ordinance lived to
literally, while it might mean a
little additional work for the head
of the household or the youth who
usually thinks he is the head,
would be greatly appreciated by
all pedestrians.
The Closing season has been an
extremely busy one in municipal
affairs, many miles of new sidewalk
being laid, upwards of two miles of
pavement being constructed, the
city hall remodeled for the accom-
mediation of the district court, and
other improvements of a perman-
ent nature meaning the expendi-
ture of large sums of money. But
the council, realizing that the work
in this respect is but begun, have
made provision in their tax levy
for the coming year for far great
er amount of available cash for
such work, the paving of additional
streets and the necessity of sewer
and sidewalk construction and road
work in the newer portions of the
city demanding inevitable atten.
ton, which will be properly given.

An Invasion Of hibbilg,
One of the Hibbino nanars of

One of the Hibbing papers of last
Saturday bristled with the tact that
the "Hesians were afraid to play the
cities" again for side bet of 500.
The people of Virginia are wonder.
ing whom the "Hesians" may be,
and are under the impression that
the fans of our little nelghborin9
village have been imbibing too
freely in the history of our country
and after reading of Indian Treat
les, Thanksgiving Day and WASH
ingtou Crossing the Delaware, have
somehow gathered the idea that the
"Hessians" had come, saw and con.
quered, and were afraid to come
again.
Nay, nay, gentle readers of Hib.
bing, fear not, for far be it from
such. The Norton football tea Of
Virginia. after much coaxing to get
your village team to play mot
"Cities) iourneyed to your little
burg and defeated the latter on
their home grounds. And taking
the Hibbing money at aforesaid
game was 80 easy, twas sad and.
moreover, it was taken in sufficient
quantity 80 that it will be entirely
unnecessary to take that $4,000.
So be wise, We people, and put your
money back in the children's banks
for the "Hessians" will not come
for another year to take your money
and reputation.
The Nortons of Virginia are fin
isning with the title of Champions
of the Northwest, unless the Fair
mounts OF Duluth can be convinced
that they should play them and are
able to gather the best end of a
game. CONTRIBUTED.
