WANTED, A PLAN.
A New System to Replace
the Primaries.
DISCUSSED BY DEMOCRATS.
Max Pepper Participates in the
Debate.
POPULISTS NOMINATE JUDGES.
M. Nj. Estee to Speak This Evening
at the Republican Ratifica-
tion Meeting.
DISCUSSED BY DEMOCRATS.
NOMINATE JUDGES.

The purity committee of the local Democ-
racy held a long executive session at the
Baldwin Hotel last night. Max Pepper
was present and participated in the dis
cussioD, which was almost exclusively
confined to the formulation of a plan or
substitute for the discarded primaries.
No conclusion was reached, however.
though it was stated after the meeting ad-
journed that various suggestions had been
taken up and discarded, while others were
laid aside temporarily to be considered
fully at another session. But just how to
select delegates to the State convention
still continues to worry the committee.
There will be meeting of the general
committee within a week" said one of
the members, ''and by that time a salts
factory plan will have been prepared. We
will show how a good convention may be
made up without antquated primaries
that are now out of date anyhow. Why
these primaries placed the selection of
delegates in the hands of a gang of free
booters Republican as well as Democratic
delegates were elected by the same identi-
cal votes. We must get along henceforth
on sounder principles"

his phaeton drive around the bay, and he
felt willing to resume his labors in the
interest of pure politics.
Nothing definite was done tonight" he
said. ''Of course the committee will meet
every night until plan is formulated for
submission to the general committee. 1t
may be changed, but final action rests
with the general body. The committee
talked tonight on the cumulative system
of voting which would give the minority
in each district a representation In the
State convention"
AS the discussion continues a clearer
idea is shaping itself, and meanwhile the
committee appears hopeful that the pres
ent difficulty can be surmOunt ted 10 the
satisfaction OF minorlties as we'll as major
ities.
