with candidates personally unknown to

ary law necessarily requires the people

with candi idates personally unknown to
the great : mass Of people, but the prifn-
ary law necessarily requires the people
to fill most Offices with strangers, chosen
by strangers, from among strangers.
The task OF learing all the necessary
forms and limitations Of the new law is
even greater than that OF the Australian
law, which after ten years experience is
only as yet but poorly comprehended by
the ordinary voter. And we don't be-
lieve the ordinary voter wants to learn
such a lesson over again; in fact we don't
believe the voter is fond of learning new
lessons anyway. He has other business
to attend to.
There is one phase more Of this sub
ject.t that we would speak of before we
close. That is the manipulations of the
politicians. We have already admitted
that sometimes such things are done,
sometimes contrary to. the will OF the
people. But it is to be remembered
that the people Still have some .oppor-
tunlty to express themselves, and there
is no one who knows it better than the
political bosses" SO called. They may
have opportunities OF stacking the
cards" and probably do, but as rule they
know better than to select poor cards
with which to win i'll political game.
Occasionally they attempt to run in a
cheap card. and the election that follows
almost always shows its weakness. On
the contrary many times candidate
who to the public appears strong and
worthy is cast aside by these same
bosses" because they know of some
weakness unknown to the public, which
however would become known at once
to everybody if the person was nomi-
mated. From our personal knowledge of
political affairs we honestly believe that
while the sins of political bosses'' are
many" they have been very largely
atoned for by the good they have done
in this very direction. But as general
truth it might be admitted that the man
who is playing political game would
prefer Of his own choice the best cards
possible.

Hamilton is arranging for a farmers
institute without the assistance of the
state. Why not? There is plenty of
talent available for the asking, locally,
and not far off, The only thing needed
is for the farmers themselves to interest
themselves in the matter. There isn't
any question as to the benefits. Indeed
there are twenty points in this county
that ought to have an institute at least
once a month during the winter season.

THE PROPOSED PRIMARY BILL

+ @SeA~&~-AASS
Mr.. Cashel's new primary law is print.
ed in full in the Herald. From a brie1
reading we should say that it is probably
as good a thing OF the kind as could be
evolved without experience, and only
experience will And its really weak
places. The new bill practically abol-
ishes all caucus and convention methods
of nominating all candidates, state, dis.
trict and county. In lieu thereof, pre-
liminary election is held, in most respects
similar to a regular election with a
similar ballot. All parties vote on the
same ballot. but each can only vote for
one set of candidates. The vote is
counted just as at a regular election, and
the persons having the highest vote are
declared the candidates OF the respective
parties.
The theory seems to be, that by the
present methods, caucuses and conven.
tions are largely under control of inter-
ested politicians and that the candidates
as now elected are the choice of the
politicians and not Of the people. That
this sometimes occurs is probably true,
but when we think of the average voter
walking up to the polls and making a
selection Of candidates for his party for
about fifty different state, county, dis
trict and other Offices, with from two to
a dozen persons living in all narfs of the

JOKE WAS ON The SENDER.

citizen, Unconscious of His Own Mistake
Criticised the Postal Authorities.
a lew days ago Citizen called at the
postotice and inquired about letter
ne had mailed week or so before that
time, in which he had enclosed q check
TOT a considerable sum OF money in
tended for merchant in another city.
lie said the letter must have gone
astray, as the man to whom he had sent
It had not received it. Ho thought
there must be something wrong with
the postal service, as he had mailed the
letter himself and had not entrusted it
TO anyone else, therefore he knew it
had been mailed. He demanded an
Investigation.
The investigation was begun, but the
machinery had scarcely been set in
motion when the missing letter was re.
turned to tho postofiice and .was
promptly deliered to the sender. The
latter had failed to write any name or
address on the envelope, leaving it en-
tireiy blank. The contents OF the letter
served to identify it, the envelope hay.
ing been opened at the dead letter
office, to which 1t had been sent hay
ing no address.
Letter and check were intact and the
citizen was happy. He admitted that
the joke was on him and exp aimed his
mistake by saying that he was in a
hurry when be mailed the letter. ''
This is only one Of many complaints
made about the postal service, and in
the majority of cases the delay in
handling mail matter is due to errors
on the part Of senders. People should
be very careful how they address let
ters and packages and should see that
the proper postage is on every letter or
package mailed.
