give us primary election lu the broad
ilgat 81 day. IL both candidates for mavo,
are IN favor % q day primary. why u i
that the executive committee refuses I,
give u 70 tho people, II the executiv,
COMMITTEES denies to yul the day primary
what reason have you TO believe that "a,
officers appointed by them viii give a TAI
expression Of the people. When the da,
primary Is called we viii see whether boti
candidates for mayor are In favor OF "A da-
primary. They think you viii he detsrre,
from your objects and purposes becaus
they ARE the democratic executive com
mittee, but when look about this hall an,
see the faces Of those assembled here
know they are mistaken. You are the PEG
pie and your voice In supreme. 1t ~ in
convenient Tor you TO come out here Ia
night TO express your dsapproval or tn
action OF your representatives. and It vii
also be incOnvenent for you to 40 to IN
primaries and march In between blue-coat
ed policemen TO exercise your right Of SUI
frage, as democrats We're forced to marci
between tho bayonets In the days Of II
j. Davis. Why Is II necessary to surroun,
the polls with armed policemen Becaus
the primaries are held at night: It Is be
cause the doors viii be closed 10 goo'
democrats. Hold the primary In the broat
light OF day, and let IT be an expression
OF the people. Chairman Reichardt ha.
found that the law which was passed b,
the legislature to protect the primary cleo
tions is void. What right has he 10 sa,
this before any court has spoken BS
saying what he has he shows his contemp
for the laws of the land and the legisln
ture which enacted them. II he refuses K
respect the laws, he will refuse to respect
the people and the rights OF the people. :
