Four bills having this general purpose are oil th:' Calendar, and amendm ents in t"oduced today will have the effect pa(tically of bringing new measures beofore the consideration of the body, as they are of so sweeping a nature as hardly to be considered as amend lnents, buti as bills themselves. Mr. Riley, Mr. Nicholson and *Mr. Iiittenberg have prepared measures on IIhe primary, and. the judiciary coin Iittee, to which they were referred, prepared a substitute for the bills of .\lessrs Riley and Nicholson and re liorted the Rittenberg measure favor ably with certain amendments. ir. 'tanIley and air. Gasque, as a sub-con ifIttee from the committee on privi logos and elections, introduced still aniother bill on the same subject. "If today's session serves as any indiation of the temper of the Ilouse some bill will be passed to change the pri:nary laws, and the question is nijnply one of judgment on which of the proposed bills and almendmnents should be selected. Only one speaker, Mr. Irby, of Lau renis, took the position that the pres ent. laws were suflicient.y strict andil should not be revised, and \Ir (.

"The bill introduced by the judiciary conmnittee has been prepared with the co-operation of Goyernor llease," said \I r. Stevenson, of Chesterfield. in defending the bill. Mr. Stevenson took up in detail the hills introduced by .\Isss .\liley and Nicholson and pointed out what ho tihoulght were their principal weaknesses, and which, he said, did not appear In the coml mtitte"e bill. "In the first place, the bill by Ir. .IMiley prvoides no salary for the coun ty registrar, and places in the hands of a single man the power to decilde whether or not a citizen of the State slil be entitled to vote," said Mr. Stevenson. "I am of the opinion that we o('ld not get ia capable manl to take the otlice absolutely without pay, and further, that the board of comlnissioners should consist of more than one 11a." .l r.

M i. C. C. Wyche spoke IIn favor of his amendment, which provided ' a more lenient syst:In of laws than the committee bill. Nir. Miley .thought there should be only one registrar, as when there are three enoh will likely shirk his duty, he said. lie was opposed to closing the registra tion books thirty days before the elec tion. Irby Opposes 'Reform. Alr. I rbv, in a speech in which he de nontnced the newspapers, fought against any reformation of the pres ent priarliy rules. The amendment by Mr. Stanley and Mr. Gasqtae for the committee on priv ileges and elections provided presenta tion of the poll tax receipt for the pre lous year, though the lame and halt might. be excused from paymen't upon sufflicient excuse. The registration certilleante must be stamped with the name of the voter, the date of registra tion and the voting precinct. Mr. Stanley spoke briefly for the amend ment. On motion of Mr. Brice further dis cussion was postponed un.t"- ',iglit'. There was a.1ec ,;i change in the plt'' regulation situation at the night session, when the discussion was resumed. Before going to the Sen ate to ratify the first batch of new acts, Mr. Irby and Mr. Moore romped all over the proposition of changing the primary laws or accepting any bait. At the night session Mr. Irby. speak ing on ta.te primary regulation, de clared that the bill gave an opportun ity for favoritism to election oflicers. 11( asked how the election ollicials could afford a more involved machin ery when they failed to enforce the :aachinery as it now stood. The ene ulies of the governor were in control of the polls, lie stated, and if there was corruption they were responsible. lie compared the present movement with the political upheaval of the nineties. Mr. Stevenson declared there was no comparison between the Iwo move ments anl that this bill disfranchised nobody. lie stated that he started the 1 rst primary system in IS88. lie told 'ir.
