Road Duty Exemptions

The first bill called up for passage this morning was MT. McLendons bill to amend section 5T7s of the code, relating to exemptions from road duty. The bill provides that persons may obtain certifi- cates of exemption from two members of the board of health in the several coun- ties of the state rather than from. the health board at their regular meeting.
 MT. McLendon explained the provisions of the bill and urged the passage of the measure, stating that the present law worked a hardship on many persons who were not able to attend meetings of the county boards of health.
 MT. Huddlseton said he thought the bill a meritorious one, and stated that he knew from practical experience that In many instances 1t was hard for men to attend meetings of the board of health, particularly when frequently they had to travel many miles in order to attend these meetings.
 The opposition was lead by Representa- tive Waddell of Russell and Representa- tive Fuquay of Tallapoosa, each of whom maintained that the preesnt law Is suff- cicnt and that the provisions of the new act made it possible for the exemption privileges to be abused. They claimed that they knew men who had obtained certificates of exemption without having the right to such exemptions. This view was also taken by Representative Lump kin, who also claimed that the new law would be much abused.

WILSON OPPOSES
PLAN TO ENDORSE
Predominating Influence at New
Jersey Democratic State
Convention.

Trenton. y. j.. October 3.-Governor
Woodrow Wilson wss the predomi-
mating influence in to-day's Democratic
state convention. which met for the
purpose of adopting a party platform.
The convention. under the provisions
OF the Geran election law. was made
UP Of seventy-six men. Governor VIII
Senators and the Democratic candi-
dates for the Senate and for the AS
sembly. The platform adopted was
eulogistic of the administration of Gov
ernor Wilson. and only the Govern or's
earnest appeal to the convention pre-
vented the adoption of resolution in
Gorsing him for the Democratic presi-
Dental nomination next year.
The Governor was chairman of the
committee on resolutions. which dis
cussed the various planks proposed for
platform had been adopted. Assembly,
man Egan, of Hudson county, offered
a resolution pledsing the support Of
the convention to Governor Wilson for
his feet in an instant. and moved that
the resolution be laid on the table
In doing this he argued that 1t was
contrary TO the spirit of the Geran
indorse anybody's candidacy. The in
dication of a choice for the presidency,
the Governor said. was vested by the
Geran law in the people, through the
election of delegates to the national
convention. and this, he said. is where
the matter should be permitted to rest.
After the Governors talk the con-
vention adopted his motion to lay the
matter on the table.
The Governor was frequently cheer
ed during the proceedings of the con-
vention.
The platform adopted by the conven-
ton begins with these words
We. the Democrats of New Jersey,
in convention assembled, indorse the
able and brilliant administration OF
Governor Woodrow Wilson. and ex-
press our entire approval of the pro-
gressive legislation enacted during the
winter of 19l0-11."
The platform sets forth certain pro-
positions upon which the Democrats
ask the support of the voters in this
falls election. The first proposition
demanded reform in the system of
selecting grand juries and petit juries.
The second proposition advocated a
change in the system of taxation in
the State with view to equalizing
taxes, but made no specific recommen
dation.
The other planks in the platform re-
lated to purely local issues.
