New York, Deo. 21. The sentiment hi favor of municipal reform and greater purity In local politics, which has caused such an upheaval at the last municipal election, has hy no means died out. It has round a firm footing among the better elements of both parties arvl tlelermlncd1 efform aave since been made to shake off the yoke of Dorm It tile, which hiui reHtcii so heavily upon both leading parties. While the Civil league and the Mu nicipal Ownership league are princi pally responsible fur the revolt against the corrupt rule of Tammany Hall and Its bosses, the republican party of this dty owes It directly to President Roos evelt that It was unable to emancipate Itself from the oppressive rule of Odell, who combined the position of governor of the state with that of po litical boss of the New Tork republi cans. - The election of Governor Hlggins jreaitly strengthened the reform ele ment In tho republican party, but no body can say how long the Odell rule would have been perpetuated, had It mit been for the direct Interference of President Roosevelt. ' The question, who Is to be the leader of the republican party In this city, will be decided this afternoon at a meeting of the republican county com mittee at the Fifth Avenue hotel. William Halpln. the willing tool and personal representative of ex-Gouernor Odell, who has held the position of chairman of the republican committee and of tho county executive commit tee, feeling that the power of Born Odell was waning, declined to be a candidate for re-election. That left Odell Vllhout a candidate. Henoitor Piatt advocated the election of J. Van Vochten Olcolt, but when the latter discovered that he could get neither the support of Secretary Root nor President Roosevelt, he also declined to be a candidate. Mr. Odell tried to Induce Congressman Herbert Parsons to become his personal rep resentative, when he heard that Pres ident Roosevelt favored the election of Mr. Parsons, but the latter openly declared that he would not consent to be a candidate for any faction of the party. Mr. Parsons hits the support not only of President Roosevelt and the leaders of the republican party, but afro of the reform element of the New York republicans, who are bit terly opposed to Odell and his rule. It Is not doubted In republican circles that Mr. Parsons will be elected coun ty chairman and chairman of the ex ecutive committee at the meeting this afternoon. OAMBRIIK5E IS X OLD TOWN.

In connection with this anniversary the following passages from John Flske's "The Beginnings of Cam bridge," are Interesting: "When In 1830 the Company of Massachusetts Pay transferred itself from London to Massachusetts, bring ing Its governor, John Wlnthrnp, and its charter, the movement was so pop ular in England that more than a thousand persons came over In the course of that year; and. before 10 years had elapsed, more than JO, 000 had come to stay. "The first settlements of the Wln thrnp party were scattered about the coast near Chnrles River, making the beginnings of Charlcstown, Boston, Dorchester, Koxbury and Watertown. Among these places Boston was clear ly marked for pre-eminence by Its geographical position, but It was not. nt first, the Intention of the company to make It tho seat of gnvornnment. A position farther Inland would be more easily defensible against the warships of King Charles." The choice fell upon a place situ ated on Charles river, between Charles Town and Water Town, where a new town, was founded. It was named New Town and was Inter 11 SO. and before the end of 1635 there wcro at least 8l Mouses In the New Town. CAN'T SELL THE BONDS. Eugene's Munlelal Ownership Pro jects 'IVinMrurlly Tied Up. Kugene, Dec. 11. An Injunction tilt against the city of Eugene as a corporation, the members of tho city council, the city recorder and the city treasurer, to restrain them from Issu ing any of the bonds recently voted for municipal ownership of light and water plants, nnd to declare the elec tion Illegal, Invalid and void was filed In the circuit court this afternoon. The name of James F. Robinson appears as plaintiff In the case. The complaint covers 20 or 30 pages of typewritten matter. Tho ground upon which the Injunction Is asked are as follows: That the election was illegal and void for the reason that the resolution ordering the election, the notice of election and the ballots at the election required voters to vote on two propo sitions and questions at the same time without being separated. That tin account of said resolution; said notice and said ballots the voters were prevented from expressing their j will or desire on the ueMlons sub mitted. That the action on the part of the council providing for only one voting place was for Lho purpose of fraudulently preventing many of the voters of the city from having an op portunity to vote, and did prevent a1 urge number from voting. i Attorney N.
