offered Before. They Say.

The confession of faith was cmbodi cd
I'm formal resolutions adopted by a joint
caucus Of Senators and Asscmblymcn. at
which the Republicans declared that prac-
tically all Of the election law and primary
reforms included IN Governor Suffers bill
were embodied In measures introduced
By Republicans which were retained in
committee i'm the Assembly by the Demo-
cratic majority" that they were offered
as amendments 10 the recently vetoed
Blauvelt election and primary bin and
were voted down by the Democratic ma
jority of each house
The Governors veto message on the
Blauvelt. or organization" direct pri-
AIRY bill was not read to-day. 1t viii be
read on Monday night. Its general tenor
was widely circulated last night, though.
and If the Governor intends 10 stir up a
hornets nest in the Legislature nc has
succeeded. To say that the Democrats.
whether or not they intend TO vote for the
Sulzer bill. are angry would fail utterly
10 describe their frame of mind The
bill aren't half so vicious as the things
the legislators arc saving about the ex-
ecutive's course of action.
His veto has produced no change in the
plan OF battle. The details of the legis-
lative end of the fight will be settled in
New York over the weekend in confer
ences between Murphy and few of his
closest supporters among the upstate
leaders and influential legislators. 1t is
still the general plan TO beat the Sulzer
bill on the floor OF tho Senate and prob
ably the Assembly also. though in that
house the fate OF tho bill is a bit uncer-
tain because so many OF the upstate DEM
ocratic members fear the Governor viii!
veto their legislation and deprive them OF
patronage if they vote against him. How
ever, the bill Will not pass the LcSislat-
ure. There is some talk OF repassing tho
Blauyelt bill over the Governor = Veto be-
cause of It's provisions meeting decisions
OF the Court OF Appeals on the existing
law
Then. il the Governor cares 10 accept
the responsibility for doing IT, the legls-
lauve leaders arc perfectly willing to nave
him call an extra session Of the Lesisiat-
ure. They do not intend to fight him IN
any undetermined way. They Will meet
the issue squarely. and ray there will be
no more possibility Of his bill beins
passed in any extra session than when IL
comes up for discussion next week.

REPUBLICANS PLEDGED
TO STATE CONVENTIONS
Statement OF Principles with
Regard to Primary Re-
form Drawn Up.
WIND FROM SUFFERS SAILS
Leaders Look for Party Vote
Against Governors Bill
Hornets Nest
Over Veto.
WIND FROM SUFFERS SAILS


Albany, April En- accordance with the
understanding reached at the conference
OF Republican Legislators on Wednesday
night. Senator Brown and Assembyman
Human made public to-day formal
statement defining the attitude or the Re-
publican members on primary and election
law reforms to he as follows:
we pledge ourselves TO favor election
reform in accordance with the pledges o.
our party platform providing for the re-
peal OF the Levy election law; the aboli-
ton Of the committee designation: the
abolition OF the use of the party emblem
and the party column. the separate judi
cial ballot: prohibiting the use Of party
funds fer candidate before the primary
favorng the grouping of candidates on
the primary ballot by Offices and proyid-
ing for the short ballot.
we oppose nomination or candidates
FOR state Offices and judges Of the Court
Of Appeals by the direct vote Il the
party electors; We favor convention
composed Of delegates directly chosen by
the party electorate IN Assembly dis
tricts."
This covers practically an the ground
covered by Governor Sulzer in the bill ne
is advocating. except the Adjustment
of the state convention and the election
of the state committee by Assembly dis
trlcts, making a committee of 80 mem
bers. The Republicans argued that abol-
ishinC tho state convention would be UNI
fair to the rural districts. as it would give
the cities undue political strength ty
reason Of the greater facility To voters 10
register their votes and that the direct
primary should be tried thoroughly in
the smaller political units before being
applied 10 state officers. They took the
ground that a. n matter Of principle the
state should not regulate the membership
Of party committees. but that a state
committee elected by Assembly districts
was not Objectionable.
All the Republicans save five bound
themselves TO stand for this statement
Of belief, wherefore the leaders expect
them to vote against the Sulzer bill

Cruel Textures inflicted on Animals In
Many Parts Of India.

Cruel Terturss inflicted on Animals In
Many Parts Of India.
In an illustrated pamphlet issued BY
the Animals Friend society Of Eng.
land attention Is drawn to the Indian
practice Of laying live goats. This
commercial barbarity Is prevalent
throughout Bengal and is done In or
der to obtain longer measurements for
the market. so called leeg necks com
manding a higher priceo n account Of
the extra length. The dreadful process
Is carried out by beginning the aaying
at the eyes and mouth of the living
goat and working down the neck. aft
er which the throat il cut. In one
Of these cases, which came under the
notice Of the Hon. Mrs. Charlton. the
laying had been partially carried out,
and the animal. though rescued from
his tormentors. finally succumbed in
misery to the agony he had endured.
The initial act of torture was perform
ed under the eye In the shape Of a cut
IN the form Of a st. Andrews cross.
and the skin. torn away In 1aps. fell
down the animals neck.
The practice Of branding domestic
animals for ornamental purposes and
Sitting the ears and nostrils Of donkeys
Is prevalent in many parts Of India.
These cruelties result in much suffer
ing, though they are enormously sup
posed by the poorer classes of the popu-
lation to convey some benefit to the
animal.
Bullocks with one side of the face
almost burnt away are to be seen
everywhere throughout the east, and
but little comment is aroused by the
plight Of these unfortunate creatures.

anced cart. These poor animals are
insuficiently fed. %habitually overladen
and Overdriven, and their shrinking
necks show tumors and liberated sores
caused by the incessant working Of
the clumsy yoke in daily use.
In Delhi and elsewhere secret places
exist where bullocks are turned into
monsters for exhibition In religious
professions. II myself" says Mrs.
