INDEPENDENT CANDIDATES
MAY HAVE TROUBLE

Attorney Genrlal Cleve Baker
has been called upon for an opinion
which may seriously affect the for
tunes of the Bull Moose party and
in fact every candidate who runs
independently for a nomination in
the present campaign.
The attorney general has been
asked to decide whether a man who
goes into the election booth on the
day Of the primary will have a
right TO afterward DIS place his name
on a petition nominating a candi-
date for any office for which the
voter has already stated his prefer
ence at the primary election. In
other words, can a man who has
voted at the primary election after
wards sign the petition of a candi-
date for any office?
The claim is made that when a
man votes at the primary election,
re already state a preference for
the various Offices and that he is
precluded from making a second
choice by placing his name on the
petition of any candidate who
wishes To run independently.
lnasmuch as the members of the
Bull Moose party intend to have
their names placed on the ballot
through petition, they would be
seriously affected if the opinion OF
the attorney general was to the
effect that no mar who voted at
the primary election could sign the
petition If a candidate it would
make the securing Of signatures of
ten cent of the registered voters
rather a serious problem.
Attorney General Baker stated
today that under the old order of
things before the primary law was
passed that a man who figured in
a convention which nominated
candidates could not sign the pnti.
tion Of a candidate after participat.
ing in such convention. Whether
this same rule would apply to the
voters who cast ballots Mt the pri
mary election Mr.. Baker was not
; prepared to state at this time. but
said he was looking up the matter
and would render an opinion with.
in a few days.
Independent candidates wyult
be affected by an adverse opinion
as IL makes the difficulty Of secur
ing signatures to their petitions
not only doubly hard but possibl,
in some cases impossible - Gazette

Origin Of the Uniforms Used at west
 Point and Annapolis.
 While stationed at Buffalo in the summer of 1874 General Scott wrote to the quartermaster for a supply of new clothing for the regulars Word soon came back that blue cloth such as was used In the army could not be obtain ed owing to the stringency of the blockade and the embargo and the lack of manufactures in the country, but there was a sufficient quantity of gray cloth Cnow known as cadet gray'0 in Philadelphia. Scott ordered 1t to be made up for hls soldiers, and ln these new gray suits they marched down the Niagara river, on the Canadian side in the direction of Chippewa
 It was just before the battle known by that uare, which occurred early In July. General Rian the British com mander, looked upon them with con tempt when preparing for battle on the morning of the 9th, for the Marquis of Tweeddale, who, with the British ad. vance, had sklrmished with them all the day before, had reported that they were only Buffalo militia" and ac- counted for their lighting SO well and driving him to his iutrenchments north of the Chippewa river by the fact that it was the anniversary of American independence that stimulated them
 On account of the victory won at Chippewa on that day, chiefly by these soldiers In gay. and in honor Of Scott and the troops that style of cloth was adopted at the Military academy at West Point as the uniform of the ca dets.-New York Press
