people In their sovereign capacity.
There is no question that tho ins,i-
gators of this movement have succeeded
in liking lhings' among the signcrs
Of the call to carry out their purpose.
With an amusing assumption of virtu-
Gus indignation they have rung all the
changes on "iraud, " ''snap jndg-
mcni, " etc, over the calling Of pTi-
mary, and then proceed TO "cut aud
dry" thing. for themselves, business
at which the political fNefs are adopts
Their assumed indignation Is not over
the manner IN which the primary was
called, pro,cs, they ever 50 much, but
over the two facts that they we're caught
mapping while engaged in thcir little
game getting the wires laid to work the
Convention, and that they are afraid 10
submit the chances Of their "laNurilcs'
to vote Of the people.
There cannot be anything like "snap
Judgment" or unfairncss IN tho phi
mary, aud the silly argument that In
primary, where there are . number Of
candidates, the successful one is ncces-
satiIy n minority nominee, applies just
rs forcibly TO the convention plan.
The convention becomes dead locked,
aud then ,hc corporation tixcrs are Mt
their best. Trades, promises aud
pledges are exchanged, Influences not
the most honorable are brought 10 bear
on susceptible delegates, and the nom
inaiion Is captured for some candidate

rcclcd against the primary, but what
they conceived to be trick, probably
thinking that ii Is better tc let the devil
have his way than to fight him with
Iirr, for fear Of the explosion and smoke
that would follow. Hut there Is no
doubt that the people would like to Try

MIR. \. j. Rudd claims to be the
Congressional committeeman from

was the committeeman for the two
years prior to the Congressional Con-
ycnlion Of 1898, and that the Wright
county delegates we're uot present at
that convention nor anyone authorized
to speak for Wright county. We can.
not say whether any OF the Wright

Again, Mr.. Rudd says that at the
time Secretary Of State Lcsucur was
preparing his official manual he In
quired Of him and MIR. Young as to
whose name he should use as commit
tccman for Wright county, and was in
formed by them that MIR. Young made
no claims OF being committeeman, but
that he (Mr. Rudd) was the duly auth
orized and acting committeeman. 1t
seems strange, under this latter state.
ment Of facts, that Mr.. Young should
send his proxy TO Chairman Bell as the
committeeman from Wrieh, county,
and II AIR. liudd Is right, It looks as u
some explanation were due from Mr.
Young, inasmuch as Chairman Bell has
been accused Of all sorts Of tricsery aud
crime, even OF fraud and forgery, for
