O. BANNON FILES
FORMAL PROTEST
Defeated Henrico Candidate In
sists on Recount OF Pri-
mary Vote.

S. ". OBannon. defeated candidate
for county Treasurer has filed with
the Henrico County Democratic Com
nittee his protest against the action
of that committee last week in ruling
that his petition for 4 recount of the
votes cast in the last primary was
without sufficient Justification. In the
original petition TO that body, Mr.
O'Bannon stated that he preferred no
charges of fraud against any OF the
officials in charge OF the polls and
that he took this action because OF
well-founded doubts as to the accur-
acy OF the count Since being denied
the recount however, Mr.. O'Bannon
has made open charges of fraud and
other Irregularities, and on these
grounds demands a recount of the
ballots cast which show an appare nt
victory BY th!rty-nine votes for his
opponent, County Treasurer Hechler.
No time is specified within which
the committee must act on Mr.
o Bannon's second protest, but II is ex-
pccted that its decision will be made
some time this week. Two other de-
feated candidates asked for recounts
on similar grounds.

FAVOR EXTENSION
OF CAR SERVICE
Franchise Is Approved for Sec
ton West of Robinson

Plans for the street car extensions
In the West End of the city were ap-
proved yesterday afternoon by sub
committee OF the Council Committee
on Streets. consisting OF the delega-
lions from Clay and Leo Wards. The
subcommittee instructed the City At
torney to prepare a franchise ordi-
ance In the usual form. granting to
the highest bidder the right to con-
struct and operate single track
Westward on Broad Street from Rob-
inson TO West Streets. and south
on West street. to Floyd Avenue, with
the necessary cross overs and con-
nections.
The plan was proposed by the vir-
Binia Railway and Power Company.
which has pctitioned for a franchise
to operate on a fifteen minute schedule
cars around the loop made by the
proposed new track, tho present line
OF the Westhampton route along
Floyd Avenue from West to Robin
son. and bnck along Robinson to the
point Of starting on tracks now oper.
Rted for the Broad and Main line.
Franchise Conditions.
Conditions were imposed by the
subcommittee that the petitioner must
eccure tho necessary right OF way for
small portion OF West Street. north
Of Monument Avenue. not yet dedi.

reserved to the Council OF the city
OF Richmond. whenever the conditions
may justify. to require q moro fire.
quent service than fifteen minutes.
and the right is reserved to the COM
pany when conditions warrant 1t. TO
double track the loop. The new line
is to be sui ject to all transfer and
ticket conditions. including labor and
school tickets, as other lines now
operated By the Virginia Railway and
Power Company, within the city
limits.
The committee Recommended for re-
lection companion petition which
proposed bringing the Westhampton
cars down 10 Ninth and Main Streets.
Both the Virginia Railway and
Power Company and the Richmond
and Hcnrico Company have also pend
Ing before the Street Committee plans
for track extensions IN the West End
bisccting Lee District UP Stuart or
Hanover Avenues. but the united op-
position OF property owners has so
far prevented their conside ration.
There are comparatively few houses
at present on the proposed loop and
II Is believed that property owners
generally will welcome a move that
Will open for building a largo sec.
,ion OF the city lying west OF the
car service.
One Objection.
Only one opponent appeared before
the committee. Mr.. O'Keefe. who
wanted the loop service on Tilden
instead II West Street, but large
part OF Tilden Srteet through the
Sheppard property had never been
dedicated TO the city or opened as n
thoroughfare
Ivorrb.-r az N. co,,r,ittee o,rroe.
cd the view that the locp proposed
was the only rational way OF giving
the proper street car facilities to the
section in need. as opposition on the
part of citizens in the great fan
formed by Broad. Main, Harrison and
Robinson Streets, renders II more and
more Improbable that IT will ever be

DEN, RECEIVES COMMISSION
FROM TALLAHASSEE.

Gus A. Soderlind, recently appointed

see and will enter upon his duties at
once. He will appoint deputies in va
rious sections Of the county and will
endeavor to enforce the state laws.
Relative to the enforcement OF the
laws Mr.. Soderlind says:
Tt being a fact that we have laws
to protect the game and fish in our
state we should all pull together and
each Of US help and see that these
laws are enforced, and feel 1t Is the
duty Of every citizen to help me in
every way possible, for it is not pos
sible for me to watch this whole coun-
ty alone.
II will have deputies scattered all
over the county, and am appointing
them as rapidly az possible. We all
know that the laws have been badly
abused, and we can see by the expe-
rience Of other states the consequence
Of neglect.
IF We take the matter in hand and
work together a. we should we will
not have the experience most Of the
other states have had, and we win be
pleased to know we did our duty to

The Chicken and the Eoo,

Debating societies may not have
succeeded in clearly establishing
which was first, the chicken or the
egg, but we believe the cold storage
plants have recently had ample evil
dence that at the beginning the hen
was certainly not out of the running.
The attempt made to corner eggs ny
the cold storage route has proven dis
astrous to those who thought that the
hens in the country had followed trust
methods and would cooperate in limit
ing the output, but somehow things
didn't seem to went the way Mr.
Meanto meant" and as result the
price of eggs has dropped somewhere
near what 1t ought to be, and some
spectators have dropped some cash
and the only regret is that the latter
didn't suffer more severely, and in ad-
dition had to eat their entire stock oil
left overs.-The Tradesman.
