LIGHT VOTING IN
PRIMARIES TO-DAY
Even the Perkins, Moss Con-
test for District Attorney
Will Draw Few Out.
SCHOOLS TRIED AS POLLS

Nobody Is looking for n big vote in
to-day's nomination of candidates by
direct party primary. TIL polls In each
OF the city's 1000 election districts will
be open from 3 p. NJ. to 0 i. NJ.
Last year, when the Republicans had
the Whitman-H inman-Hedges Governor
ship contest to stimulate interest. only
22. 900 of them voted In the primary in
New York county. Although the Perkins
managers in the fight against Frank
Moss have been claiming about 10000
votes. the prophets OF the Republican
county organization figure that the
Perkins-Moss vote combined will hardly
he more than $4,000. As this is the
most appealing contest to-day this pre-
diction supplies a fair indication OF
what this years primaries will amount to.

cradle To say about your splendid
leader, Mr.. SulZer," at which Plain Bill
almost made out to look bashful as he
tugged at his Henry Clay forelock and
champed hard on old Kentucky plug.
Dir, Moss recalled his W services in
fighting Tammany Hall and insisted that
his main object in running for District
Attorney was to keep Judge Swami out
OF the office. He reasserted that Mr..
Perkins, the Republican organization
choice, could not possibly win against
Judge swami because Mr., Perkins could
not corral the Independent vote. Mr..
Moss knew who could. lie gave his
American party hearers just one guess.
He ended his speech by attacking the
subway Contractors for negligence.
other minor candidates made speeches
which rang pleasantly in the ears OF Mr..
Sulzer and the Sulzerites. The meeting
was closed with cheering led by Col.
Bacon and B'rer Johnson Of whistling

No One slope Preferable.
The slope or exposure of a site is
the point Of the compass toward which
the land inclines. a question very
commonly asked is, What slope is

direct answer. No one slope is pref

regions. In fact, the influence which
a partculr exposure may have in the
success of an orchard is probably
much over-emphasized in the poPu-

As a rule, it is doubtless safe to as
