Editor Winship. Of tho herald.
gives to . press correspondent
~ Bismarck the following SUM-
mary of the Luke primary cleo.
ton bill:
THE aim of the bill introduced
by Senator Luke is to entirely
abolish all county and district
conventions. and elect delegates
to the same by direct vote of the
people. Nominations are pro.
vided for by candidates securing
a petition containing 10 per cent.
of the votes cast in their pre-.
cincts. and depositing u fee rang
ing from $3.50 to $40. After
the nominations are made. the
county auditor is empowered tn
prepare u primary ticket contain
ing all the names properly classi.
fed under the headings of the
various Offices for which they
are candidates. which is duly
posted. similar to the way the
Australian h;sllot is posted under
our present ballot law. The
fourth Tuesday in May preceding
the general election day, at
which I'LL parties vote for candi-
dates for county Offices. and
for delegates to the state con-
ventions. All conventions are
doae away with except the state
coiventiOn for the nomination of
State officers. and once in every
four Years a special primary
election for the purpose of elect
ing delegates To the
state. convention torepresent the
state III the national convention.
The c:.nvassing of the vote is
provided for under the present
law now governing the Canvass
| ing Of the vote cast at the general
election. and the returns are
made by the same canvassing
bnard. These are the main
features. but there are many
matters of detail which will prob.
ably be introduced in the bill
when it is brought before the
cOmm4ittee of elections. The
present agitation for IL primary
law is the outgrowth of the
present system since the or.
ganization of the state. and the
feeling is that matters of this
kind should be submitted by
q direct vote OF the people
hence all county and district
conventions which are ordinarily
manipulated by con binations and
politicians are done away with
entirely, and the people have q
voice in the nominations direct.
For instance, in the past, dele
gates to county convention
have been elected as represents.
tives of certain issues, who upon
attending county conventions.
have been manipulated by expert
politicians SO that they would
entirely misrepresent the senti-
ments of their constituents when
delegates were elected to attend
the state convention. Dissatis-
faction with conventions and the
cutting If the ticket have been
the result of such work, and it is
believed that, if q satisfactory
primary Jaw is enacted, it will
not only strengthen the republi-
can party in the slate. but give
much better satisfaction to all
classes of people. There is q
disposition to pass some law of
this kind. but us to whether OF
not the bill introduced by Sena-
tor Luke will pull through, l ain
unable to say"
