W. W. PORTER IS
SERIOUSLY INJURED
Rode on TreStle and Horse
Stumbled, Hurling Him
Fifty Feet Below.

w. w. Porter, who resides near
Dunleith, came pretty near meeting
his death last Thursday even
ing. MIR. Porter had been to Hunt
ington and did not start home un-
til almost night. He was riding one
horse and was leading another, the
second animal being of a refractory
nature necessarily impeded the
progress. By the time Mr.. Porter
reached Four Pole the night grew
rather dark aud be missed
his way. Instead of keeping
to the county road the rider
turned upon the railroad and started
across the trestle. The faithful
steed could not measure the space
between the. ties and did not go far
when there was a stumble, then an-
other, and then-a dull thud. Rider
and horses had been precipitated TO
the ground, forty feet below.
The groans eminating from the
injured man attracted the attention
of passeroy and aid was summon
ed.
Mr.. Porter was removed to the
Huntington hospital where it was
learned he had received several very
bad bruises about the hips and indi-
cations lead the physicians to believe
that his spine Is wrenched. None
of the injuries are necessarily dan
gerous. He is now getting along
all right.
One of the horses was killed out
right and the other had to be shot.

A Primary Law Possibility

One of the advantages, perhaps lit
tie considered by the average person,
but doubtless ever present in the
minds of those who even yet are fight
ing the direct primary law, that the
law as enacted in this state naturally
acts against the man in office.
For illustration, suppose Hamer,
French and Bartlett Sinclair are can
didates for congress as is generally
supposed they are, or will be. Sup
pose again that Hamer, the man in
the office should receive 40 per cent of
the vote for the first choice candidate;
French should rebeive 30 per cent
and Sinclair 80. Any other set of
figures would answer as we'll. But
now each voter in casting his vote has
the right to designate his second choice
also. 1t is not to be supposed that
Hamer, being in Office, would be the
second choice of many voters. Most
of those who want him at all would
want him for first choice. His second
choice votes would be very low.
French however, and Sinclair, are in
position to get all the Hamer second
choice votes, while French would at
least divide the second choice votes
cast for Sinclair as first; and Sinclair
would equally share with the French
! votes. In the supposed case above, il
French should get 25 per cent or more
Of the second choice votes, he would
likely win, as the total Of his first
choice and second choice would be
above 55 per cent of the vote. Sin
clair or any third candidate, although
little regarded, might beat both O
them provided his second choice vote,
were sufficiently greater than either
of the others
The opponents of the law argue tha
this is a serious weakness of the law
inasmuch as in might result in the de
feat of good official. But this is no
true, because if an official should make
such satisfactory record as to entitl,
him to reelection, the people will SCI
to it that he gets clear ma jority o
the first choice votes. If he canno
command such majority, then h,
merits defeat. The good of law come
in weakening the hold of the ofieia
upon the public purse.-Capital News

Reduction IN Bounty

DeFooter M. G. Ramboe has re-
ceived word from State Veterinarian
Noble that hereafter the state will pay
one dollar in place of a dollar and a
half as formerly bounty on coyotes,
lynxs, cats and foxes and five dollars
instead Of ten, as formerly for wolves
This is made necessary. because Of the
great inroads that have been made on
the predatory animal tax which
amounts to $4,000; and it was seen
with bounties at the former price the
tax would not meet the requirements.
Another change is that hereafter no
feet will be received unless they are
attached to the hide when presented
for bounty by piece Of skin passing
up over the shoulder from one foot to
the other After the feet have been
removed the hide will be returned to
the party presenting it.

The Union Meetings

1t has been clearly demonstrated
during the past few days that it is not
necessary to send outside for preachers
to conduct evangelistic services. AT
the opening Of the union meetings at
the Opera House last Sunday, the at
tendance was large, the sermons by
Messrs. Saxton and Evans able, schol-
arly and impressive, and the singing
under the leadership of Prof. Otto
Hopper, inspiring. The same is true
Of the services Monday and Tuesday
evenings, when Messrs. Morgan and
Hitchcock did the preaching, except
that the attendance was not as large
as OH Sunday. The four churches
that have united in these services are
working in perfect harmony and are
sure to see good results. Meetings
every night until February p, except
the night Of the 18th, when Congress
man Bede will speak on the regular
Lecture Course.
There will be regular services in
the various churches next Sunday
morning, also the morning of Sunday

ever, and preaching at 7:3O. Prot
