EDITOR TR1BUNF:- plan for
nomination is. good. But people
ought to be informed through your
paper or by means of circular letters,
concerning all who are registered as
candidates so as to be able to decide
intelligently. The plan will undoubt-
edly make people interested in the pri-
maries.

not desire to have their names and
wishes published. But let the scared

Inc following IS an outline OF the
plan as proposed:
PLAN FOR NOMINATION OF COUNTY
TICKET BY DIRECT VOTE.
CANDIDATEs.-Any man may become
candidate and have his name printed
upon the ballot who is eligible under
the law and who makes application to
the chairman of the county committee
at least 20 days before the time set for
the primary election, who signs
pledge declaring himself in sympathy
with the party as set forth in the ma
tional platform last adopted preceding
the primary election and stating that
he enters the contest in good faith, and
upon the payment of three dollars to
go into the treasury of the county
committee to assist in paying for the
printing and distribution of the tickets.
[Provision might also be made to
place names on the ballot by petition.
NOTICE OF PRIMARIES chair
man of the county committee shall
cause to be published in the newspapers
of the county, at least two weeks be-
fore the date set for such election, a
notice of such election, containing a
list of all candidates who have filed
their applications and the offices to
which they aspire.
THE BALLoT.-The ballot shall be
printed similarly to the regular
Australian ballot used at general elec-
tions under the direction of the county
committee and sample ballots shall be
distributed generally throughout the
county Immediately after the first no.
tice of the election has been published.
How TO CONDUCT PRIMARIES. The
primary election shall be conducted to
comply with the state law in every
particular. In addition thereto these
regulations are prescribed. The pre-
cinct committee shall provide ballot
box and see that the election of the
proper judges and clerk takes place
and see that they are provided with
the official ballots and blanks furnished
by the county committee.
Each voter as he appears to vote
will receive blank ballot, signed on
the back thereof by the judges, and af-
ter marking shall fold the same In a
manner to show the signatures of the
judges and return the same to be
placed in the ballot-box, his name to
be registered by the clerk. Ladies
may vote for candidate for superin-
tendent of schools, but their ballots
must be placed in separate box.
When one hour has elapsed
after the polls were opened
and all legal voters present who desire
to do so have voted, the judges and
clerk of election shall close the polls
and proceed to canvass the votes and
tabulate the result thereof upon blanks
supplied for the purpose by the
county committee. The returns, IN
Guiding the ballots cast, shall be Sc
curely sealed in large envelope in
the presence of the judges and clerk of
election and by one of their number in
person be delivered to the Peoples
County Convention after said conven-
ton has been duly organized and
officers appointed to canvass the re-
turns. The voters attending the prim-
aries shall also elect delegates to the
county convention by ballot in accord
ance to the call made by the county
committee.
A true copy of the returns shall be
left with the precinct committee.
The CONVENTION:-Afte the county
convention has been permanently orga-

EDITOR TR1BUNE:-There seems to
be "too much red tape" about the
plan; but the fundamental principle
is all right and should be put in oper-
alton. We need political reform with
a "fair chance" for everybody; and
an intelligent citizen will better un-
derstand his duty when the RESPONSE
bility is thrust at his own door. A
"public discussion" of the merits and
demerits of person or q measure is
absolutely necessary in a free coun-
try; but a definite "plan' ought to be
boiled down as much as possible.

J. The CONVENTION:-After the county
convention has been permanently orga-
nized and resolutions have been adop-
ted, the convention shall proceed to
elect a canvassing board to open
and count the returns and announce
the result and the candidate having
the largest number of votes for each
Office shall be declared the nominee OF
the Peoples party for such Office. In
case of q tie vote the convention shall
proceed to nominate one from the two
having the equal number of votes.
In case nominee refuses to accept the
nomin alton, the vacancy may be filled
by the convention before it adiourns
or later by the county committee.

EDITOR TR1BUNE:-I have studied
the plan to nominate candidates by
direct vote from the people and [ think
it is q good one. It seems to me that
it should encourage the people, 80
they could get the candidates they
want. In theory ] think it is very
good thing, But practically think y
would not prove as good. People out
in the country do not attend the eau
cuses, and L think that the cities or.
the villages would nominate their
candidates. AS q matter Of fact the
cities and villages would outnumber
the country, 80 j think the plan would
favor the candid dates from the larger
election precincts. I hope that the
plan will be discussed II the TRIBUNE TRIB y 2

The license system as means of
police control is an admission that
evil cannot be controlled. It is evil
dence per Sc that the evil cannot exist
without the protection of law, that is,
in communities where policemen and
courts do their duty lest they lose
their positions. He who advocates the
licensing of evil is either an abetter of
wrong-doing or else he is a coward.

THE WAR SONG OF THE BoER.

The hardy Boer now siDseth,
AS to his feet he springeth,
A song that's full of ragged, jagged
rumble, rant and roar.
He loads his trusty rifle
And chants this chunky trifie--
This wondrous. cumbrous melody-the
war song of the Boer:
"Waai hoog nou in ons heidcr lug
Traansvaalso vriejheidsvlag;
Ons vijande Is weggeyiug:
Nou blinkn blijer dag"
1t looks like barb-wire fencing.
With brol.en-glass commencing:
1t tangles. jangles, manglcs-then 1t
wrangles on once mbre.
II cannot be unravelled.
Once from his throat it's travelled
This tripple-twisted. double-hsted war
song Of tho Boer:
"Waai hoog nou In ons heider lug
TraaEsvaalse vriejheidsviag;
Ons vijande Is weggeviug;
Nou blink'n blijer dag"
1t helps us to determine
What our own General Sherman
Meant when he said that war was like
aplace that has floor
That's paved with good Intention
But not polite to mention
This awe-inspiring. rapid-hring wal
song of the Bocr:
"Waai hoog nou In ons heider lug
Traansvaalse vriejheidsviag:
Ons viiande Is weggeviug;
Nou blink'n blijer dag
No matter how you read 1t.
You certainly will heed It,
For hat kward. forward, upside down,
It brings up thoughts of gore
If it's meant to be Jolly,
1t must have slipped its trolley
This schrapnel-worded, pistol-girded
war song of the Boer:

TrGansvaalse vricjheidsviag;
Ons vijande II weggeviug:
Nou bllnk'n blijer dag"

fessions are the result. Which ever
II may be. the hapless newspaper wo-
man who has brought all this retribu.
tion on her foolish head has my SYM
pathies.
Imagine trying to tell some woman
by letter how to evolve a perfectly
lovely Easter gown with fashionable
tucks running up and down the skirt
and a double box pleat In the back
out Of a tight-fitting -gored skirt
cut with one of those slinkv habit
backs which look like nothing In the
world so much as a suit Of union un-
derwear! Imagine the headache the
newspaper woman will have when she
gets through designing "a stylish CO.'S
tune" out OF a brown waist that has
no sleeves and a blue skirt that is too
short. "Oh me! Oh my!
But why shouldn't we try to hide
our defects-we women? 1t is our duty
and Is imperatively demanded OF u.s.
Nobody but our dressnaker knows that
we have one shoulder higher than the
other. To no one but that faithful
friend do we confide that the fine,
straight back, the broad stylish shoul.
ders are not ours by right so much
as hers who made them thus by deft
and judicious padding. We are not
supposed to have corns and bunions
and we would all like to have 1t ap-
pear that our locks are naturally wavy.
1t Is no longer fashionable for any
body but children to have disease. and
women Of good taste are more reticent
about surgical operations and being
under the doctors care" than they
were a few years ago. In fact, 1t is
rather healthful, wholesome spirit
which is so influencing womankind and
it Is only when they are writing anony-
mously to the newspapers that they
confess their little weaknesses or lack
of symmetry.
Yes, it Is a good thing to conceal oul
defects. 1t will be beautiful II we car

are as near the correct type Of angels
as ever Chamber down the COLDER

little fretful undertone beneath a rippl'

aside the bitter word on the tip of on
tongue and replace it with one o

thing which may perhaps be forgiven
us in the day when all deceit Il
weighed against the burden of hate
and scorn and harshness in the world
Ap, yes, let us conceal our defect
just as carefully as we would endeavo
to hide an incipient hump between ou
shoulders. Let us hide away fast an,
