cident last evening which may result in
death. The rod connecting the piston
with the fly wheel of the air compressor

to repair it. In trying to replace it he
was caught by the belt and crushed be-
tween it and the wheel. u
Those of his fellow workmen who We're
near the compressor rushed to his as
sistance and an ambulance was immedi-
ately summoned from ST. James hos

The injured man has one brother in
Everett and three in Eutte those in this

IMPORTANCE OF THE PRIMARIES.

The Journal takes no stock in the predic-
tions Of those who declare that no good can
come from the primary law. 1t is the pur
pose OF the city committee to have the pri-
maries OF July % conducted as carefully as
are general elections. with the exception
that there will be no booths In which to
privately mark ballots. The reason these
are not provided is that II would cost sew
eral hundred dollars which is not in the
Republican committees treasury. But
when a voter is given an opportunity to
mark ballot without being watched or
seen by any other man. the essential fea-
lures OF the secret ballot are obtained.
There is the same opportunity to challenge
voters as in general elections No man can
vote until his name and rea.dence are re-
corded. The penalties for fraudulent voting
in primaries are the same as are provided
In the general election law. Now. can any
sensible person say that a primary held
with such safeguards. with the polls open
nine hours. is not a vast Improvement over
a primary held under the old system. in
which it was impossible to challenge any
person Offering to vote, with no record of
those voting. but a crowd Of men rushing
by a ballot-box or hat and voting. the polls
being open fifteen minutes? Wholesale
fraud by voting men in precincts in which
they do not live and by voting Democrats
in Republican primaries can be prevented
by the law as it will be enforced in Repub-
lican primaries. This has been the evil in
the past.
The Republicans in the different precincts
will make the nominations by their votes.
If Republicans who desire a good board Of
councilmen will attend and pick the kind
from the names presented for councilmen
at large and from the wards. a good Coun-
Gil can be secured II, however, those Re-
pubicans who desire better things neglect
TO go 10 the primary or do not take an
interest to induce others to go. they aban-
don the field TO a small minority OF men
who have interests of their own to serve.
The present law Is not what the Journal
desired but the best law that reformers
could devise will not insure good results
unless the men who desire good govern
ment do their duty at the primaries. Those
who for a better Council must examine
the names OF candidates and unite In sup
port Of the best Ii is already reported that
few asprants employing helpers"
to bring out a vote for them at the pri-
mary. The candidate who has the assist
ance OF a considerable number OF such
helpers is putting out money which no
man can afford 10 do who seeks a place in
the Council. In most cases the money is
contributed by men who desire TO have
friends in the Council. AS rule IT will be
well to seek out the candidates who have
ardent canvassers who are known 10 work
for pay, and defeat them. 1t would be
something of a change TO have Council
for Indianapolis a city rather than for
interests which are not those Of Indianapo-

There is a possibility that the farmers

thrasherman has been working alone and
has considered every man engaged in the
same business his enemy. The farmer has
found II to his interest to foment strife

are cut to pieces. So long as these condi-
