"I have printed a letter tn which Mr. Archbold calls Senator Forakor’s special atten tion to a measure pending in the Ohio legislature, and directs him to oppose It,” and 1 am doing this for the pub lic good.” No Order From Archbold, He Says. "No letter that tins been read can possibly be construed as an order di recting me to do anything,” said Fora ker. The witness then added that Hearst's meeting in Columbus. Ohio - the time when ho was supposed to have secured the letters was September 11, 1908. He said that Hearst. In his speech that night, referred to a letter from John T> Archbold urging Foraker to support the nomination of Judge Burkett, then a candidate for the supreme court of Ohio. "Judge Burkett and 1.” said Foraker, “wore close personal friends, and I knew him to be a man of the highest Integrity. 1 would have supported him whether or not I had received a letter from Mr. Archbold. Therefore, his let ter had no weight with me." Why the Ohio Bills Were Held Up. Taking up the three Archbold letters relating to bills pending in the Ohio legislature, Senatoi Foraker said these ' were introduced In the state legislature by A. K. Price, chairman of the com ‘ mitlee on the Judiciary in 1900. At the subsequent session of the legislature they were materially amended and [ passed and still remain on the statute books. The amendment made them more objectionable to" the corporation, he said. Senator Foraker p educed a lett. written Ip Price to the late Judge Wil liam 1.1 Webb, of Athens, Ohio, who had made some inquiry regarding the . matter, and which letter, he said, vx ; plained it. I Price wrote that the bills were pre pared by ex-Governor Nash, then the , executive of (Milo, and introduced by . him (Price), embodying Nash's ideas on corporate legislation The reason .'they were not passed at the 1900 ses- I sion of the legislature was because the nationa. idm'nist rat ion at Washington feared their | assage would jeopardize 'the electorate vote of Ohio. According II to Price's letter, at no time ha i Foraker communicated with him ■ regarding the measure. but that i Governor Nash had said that Senator Hanna had counseled him to abandon the bill at that .session: that he (Han- ■ pat ha,! conferred with Foraker about i tin matter and that Foraker concurred in his views. Two years later the bill was amended and passe,!. Foraker said be did not recall having nonsuited with Hanna about the bill, but In view of this statement he pre- I sumed that he had .om urred with f i Hann i. . , Fmai.ei . r. a a '■ ttcr from M. .

Clhyton, believed that the proper meth od of disciplining a wife was to give her the famous West Point rebuke the rule of silence. She said that she con sidered It good grounds for divorce and alimony.

Dec. 18. -Charging the Hayne partisans with fraud in the may oralty election here on December 4, the contested election case brought by Dr. J. It. Littleton, defeated candidate for mayor, was begun in the superior court room here today before Ordinary A. K. Walton. The interest which has shown from the first in the outcome of the election and the probabilty of its being successfully contested brought forth a large crowd to witness the hearing. Boykin Wright, representing L. C. Hayne. the successful candidate, began the argument. He contended that the result of the election was declared De cember 4 and the petitioned, filed Decem ber 10, was one day too late. He also argued that the prayer in the amendment, asking the court to take 1 charge of the ballot box. was a new jirocedure, and was not filed within the five-day limit allowed by the stafut.es. Ho asked the dismissal of this amend ment. Mr. Wright went further to show the authority given for the opening and ex amining of the ballot boxes and the sanctity and in i iolability of the freeman’s vofo. He argued that the examination of the ballot boxes would be unconstitu tional and without authority. Other points in favor of the rontestee were ar gued by Mr. Wright during the sitting, which adjourned at 2 o’clock this after noon. The hearing will be resumed at 10 •’(lock tonion ow morning iho light over the Augusta mayoralty i has been waged in one form or another •’ sima' last summer, when the Hayne fac ' tifii refused to g<> into a primary with I the Littleton candidates.
