THE CLEANSING OF THE CAPITOL

We see it stated that the committee
rooms at the Capitol. as well as the
Halls of the House and the Senate. have
been cleaned up and put in order for the
meeting of the Legislature next We'd
ncsday.
We regret very much that this cleans
ing of the Capitol did not go far enough
10 provide for the ventilation of the
rooms of The halls where our legislators
will have to sit. We believe that every
member of The Legislature who has sat
in those rooms will say that they are
painfully in need of ventilation, that the
members have suffered for lack OF these
sanitary requirements, and there is no
doubt that several members have lost
their lives from sitting in the putrid at
mosphere which is created by SO many
persons breathing the same air in I'M
ventilated rooms. The halls of lesisla-
ton are simply sickening to persons in
delicate health and are injurious even
TO the most robust
1T seems to be nobody'S business to at
tend 10 this, and the average man, even
though he De ii SSpitIl VI lIie Stdte, pay
40 regard to the ordinary laws OF health
when il is 4 matter Of fresh air The
Senate chamber, with all the windows
shut and densely packed with Senators
and auditors. is little better than the
Black Hole OF Calcutta, and the House
OF Delegates. under the same circum-
stances, is just as bad. We do not pre-
tend to be able to solve the architectu-
raj problem involved, but it is one that
has got to be solved, and if it could be
done in no other way We would cut the
Gordian knot by having one ventilation
shaft built from the ceiling OF the Sen
ate chamber up and through the roof of
the building. and Two in the same way
from the ceiling OF the hall of the House
OF Delegates. but whether this is the
right Plan not, it is certain that the
members OF our Legislature have suf-
5cred from the bad ventilation Of the
rooms in which they have been com

have the opportunity to go to the polls
| and express their choice between candi-
dates. There can be no free and full ex-
preston Of the views of the voters In
ward meetings and CROSSROADS conven-
tons. Many voters will not attend such
meetings for reasons sufficient to them
selves. When it is a simple choice be
tween persons a voter frequently feels a
delicacy in publicly expressing himself
He may be on the most friendly terms
with two or more of the candidates. and
it is distasteful to him to put himself. in
a public meeting, in the attitude of ia
vorins one and antagonizinz the others.
Such voter is very apt to stay at home
when the local meeting to choose dele
gates to the State Convention is held.
More than this, Mr.. Folkes well says
that the action of these local meetings
is usually "cut and dried" and more
often than otherwise it utterly fails to
express the dominant sentiment Of the
community.
How simple it would be TO avoid all
this by having a gubernatoriai primary,
in which every Democrat might by ball
lot express his choice OF candidates with
out proclaming his preference from the
house top. a regular election is to be
held this year to choose delegates to the
Constitutional Convention, the expense
Of which is to be paid by the Govern
ment, and it will cost no more, or at any
rate but very little more, to have also at
the same time a primary election for
Governor, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and At
torney-Gcneral. 1t is a most excellent
device to give the Democrats of this
State the opportunity of saying whom
they want for these offices, and we can
see no possible objection to the plan on
the part of those who want the most
popular man to win, We sincerely hope
that Mr.. Foxes plan will be adopted
