publican leaders, passed the Avis which Avis had introduced at the request of .Senator Creese, of Cape May. and which was the Colby bill, applying to counties and lesser politic- 1 divisions. It was reported in tl- House panted to third reading, and was prac tically passed on thirl reading, the roll call having been nearly completed,when Robbins, the speaker, suddenly discovered what the measure was Then the roll call was.begun over again, and the Republican regulars, who had been voting unanimously for the bill, sud denly changed their attitude and voted

solid It against It.

Dtrvct nominations.despite the eflorts of both machines to keep it in the twekground, has become a popular Issue. The House is witling to pas- tb. measure, with the approval of t® Democratic bosses, but the latter will agree to Its passage in tbe 1 ope that the Senate will not pass It li Senate there would be little opposition to tbe passage of the measure if there was nat tbe fear that tbe Houm might allow it to become law or at leas go to tbe Governor foi approval. What tbi Governor think* is impossible to ascer tain. He has nerer gone on record as favonog direct nominations. In it* general plan, the direct nomination bill provide* for abolishing delegates and conventions, and giving tb< voters in each party a direct choice in the making of nominations for all elective officers in tbe State. The amend roenta proposed are entirely along the line ol simplifying the plan for workihg out this system of nominations, tecting tbe vote against traod and ruption, and guaranteeing, as far possible, that the vote* of all individnai members of political parlies shsll hare equal weight in determining party nominees. If the measure passes the form proposed, there will be more, city, county. Congressional elate conventions. Delegates to nation al conventions will be elected in piarty primaries beM in Jane, and delegates to constitutional convention* and Presidential dec tors will be choaen by direct vote of the members of the parties.
