matter direct to the supreme court.
and would ask for an order restrain
ing tho secretary of state from plac-
ing the name of c. 3. Buckman on
the official ballot as the candidate
for cong ess. Then he might ask for
an order to show cause Why his own
name should not be substituted for
that 81 Buckman.

Of principle said he. II believe 1
am entitled to that nomination. be-
cause I am convinced that am the
choicefot q majority Of the legal re-
publican voters Of the district. If We
allow such matters as this to pass
without protest, it opens the way
for allsorts of illegitimats practices.
There are some precincts in Cass
county which return more republi-
can votes than there are white men,
women and children within ten miles
of the polling places. There are
other precincts which ! doSnot care

st. Cloud Journal Press (Rep. }:
Perhaps the most Objectionable
feature OF the primary law is that
the voters have TO decide between
self seeking candidates. Any man
who has the price to file gets his
name on the ticket, and this kept
better men out of the canvass. Pos.
sibly it would be an Improvement to
require the endorsement of a certain
oumber of petitioners, and while it is
not a difficult matter to get men to
sign a petition it gives q certain
amount Of publicity to a candidates
intentions, and prevents man filing
at the last moment, and thus forcing
himself upon the party. There is q
candidate for senator in a certain
district in this state, who was in
duced to go on the ticket by his po-
litical opponent, while the mans
party had quite different plan. In
this case the man becomes the candi--
date of his party, through the adrolt
manipulatfons of his political oppon-
ents, simply because he is an easy
man to defeat. 1.-THE primary law

the SIXTH DISTRICT

Minneapolis Journal (Rep.): The
bitter fight that is still on for the
nomination in the sixth congression-
al district has caused some alarm In
republican circles for the safety Of
the diatrict. While realizing the
closeness of thu sixth, republican
leaders heve all along counted on
c. B Buckman's fighting qualities
and his strength among democrats
to make him q sure winner. He fell
90 lar below expectations in his vote
at the primaries that some concern
is now felt for the election.:,. While he
wi]lget anumber ofdemocratic votes,
especially in bis own county. the
siz. Of the vote against him leads to
the fear that he will be cut by repub.
licans at the election. Every effort
will be made to line up the party
solidly for him If he proves to be the
nominee for it is considered danger
Gus to lose new district. 1t is q
bad precedent for future elections.
Should A, F. Foster win the nomi.
nation by contest proceedings he
would incur the enmity OF the Buck
man people, and would hardly poll
the full party vote in Morrison and
Crow counties. Elsewhere he would
probably get the republican vote.
There are very few to spare. Ua-
til 1898 the counties that make up
the new sixth district were anti-re-
publican. Since then republicans
have gained steadily, but even Ia
i 900 their lead was q small one for
the state ticket outside OF governor,
while Lind carried the counties.
Harking back twelve years, and
following these counties up to the
present. their political complexion
vas as follows:
In 1890, Combined democratic
aud populist plurality on congress-
man, Z, ,133; on governor, 8.627.
In 1892, on congress. $40 demo
/ populist; on governor, 1868 demo.
populist.
i In 1894, on congress, ! ,839 demo.
! populist, on governor, 2.506 demo.
populist. ~. .z......sss:=...., c..s.s.
In 1896, when most Of the counties
were in the old sixth and were in the
first Towne- Morris contest, the dis.
trict was 900 fusion on congress,
and 3 3,044 for Lind.
In 1898, when the Stearns county
Germans we're weaned from Towne
entirely but stuck to Lind, the dis
trict was 73S republican on congress
but 5, 5,2O3 democratic on governor,
and 730 democratic on lieutenant
governor.
In 1900 the twelve counties, still
divided between Heatwole, Morris
and Eddy, gave a republican major
ity on congressman OF 2,257. They
gave Mckinley a majority OF 1901,
but the state ticket fell far below.
and it is on that basis that compari-
son must be made. Block for state
treasurer got only 1,166, and Smith
for lieutenant governor 304, in the
district, while Lind carried it over
Van SAINT by 1859
The sixth district is evidently de-
botable ground for an off year cam
paign.
