George Il Love Dead,

Our old settler readers will remember
Gorge b. Love who lived in Audubon
many years. He was brother of j..
Mack Love, once Audubon's mayor.
George studied law here with his broth
er and was admitted to practice. The
following from the Republican News
Journal Newkirk, Kay Co.. Okla, tells of
his recent death:
We are panied to record the death Of
Mr.. George b. Love, the Waltham town.
ship farmer, which occurerd Tuesday at
one o'clock. Mr.. Love has been a long
sufferer, having been taken down with
rheumatism and pneumonia last winter.
The illness resulted in dropsy of the
lungs and after lingering several weeks
the patient sufferer succombed.
Mr.. Love was born In, Mercer county,
Illiuois, October, H. 1860. His aged
father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. John
Love reside west of this city and in the
neighborhood Of his surviving sisters,
Mrs. II. NJ. Coville and Mrs. E.l E. Dodd.
He leaves five brothers, Hon. j. Mack
Love the prominent Arkansas City law
yer and politician. DIR. J. ID. Love, OF
Eureka Springs Frank andsHayes Love,
OF Chilocco, and one brother, W. W.
Love at the old home in Illinois. The
deceased leaves widow and three chill
dren, two girls and boy, the eldest be-
ing ten years Of age, to mourn his loss Of
devoted husband and father. Geo.
was fine farmer and took great pride
in his home OF 100 acres, which he Sc

serving their first terms and all expect
usual denominations for second terms.
Each deserves it and, from appearances,
each will receive it by reclamation.
After the nominations will come a
very important work, the reception of
the report Of the committee appoited q
year ago to examine into and report on
the subject of primary elections. At
the last years convention J. A. Nash
moved that the convention adopt the
primary election plan and that com
mittee consisting of ii. w Hanna, Geo.
W. Cosson and w. G. Elliott be APP
pointed to draft rules for said primary
and report to committee of one from
each township, which committee should
pass on them. By motion made by
Theo. F. Myers the whole subject was
referred to the above named
committee and they were directed to
inves tigate and report to this year s
convention. We understand the two
members who are here will report a
set of rules and recommend, their
adoption. The REPUBLICAN has no
wish in the matter except for the well
fare of the party. Either system will
do for us. We believe that changing
from one system to the other is an i'm
portant and serious matter, however,
and deserves careful consideration.
| For the information of some who are
not informed on the subject of primary
elections we will say that it consists in
doing at the primary election and by
ballot what is done at our caucuses
and conventions. Under it, according
to the rules generally followed, any
one wishing to be candidate for a
county office files his name, together
with small fee, with the county chair
man. A few days before the primary
election the co. chairman has printed
a ticket similar to an Australian ballot
| containing the names of all the can
didates for each and every county
Office to be filed. Each name has a
square before it. On primary election
day, these tickets having been furn-
ished to the different township chair
men, primary elections are held in
each township at the usual place for
holding the caucuses and the polls are
kept open for two or three hours.
Only republicans are allowed to vote.
The voter marks the square opposite
the name of the man for whom he wish
es to vote. The votes are then count
ed and the returns are made to the
county chairman who, with assistant is,
counts the returns the announces the
results. The one receiving the m ost
votes for any one office is the party's
nominee for that office.
At a certain hour during the time
the poles are open in each township
that townships delegates are selected

County Convention Next Week.
The various Candidates. The Primary
system.


The republican county convention
will be held next Wednesday. See
the call on the first page. The eau
cuses in the several townships will bt
held next Monday night. At those
caucuses not only delegates to the
county convention are to be selected
but member OF the county centraI
committee from each township. Town
ship tickets may be nominated at these
caucuses. II they are not nominated
Monday evening another caucus will
have to be called in the fall. Each
township has to elect full township
ticket this fall consisting Of one trus.
tee, two justices, two constables, Q
clerk and one assessor.
We presume there will be no con
tests over the selection Of delegates &c
the state and district conventions Thu
year. Judge Green is candidate fol
denomination. He has served as dis
trict Judge for eight years and during
that time he has given excellent salts
faction to the bar and tolthe people. he
is stronger this year in the confidence
of the district than ever before. He
will in all probability be renominated
by reclamation, but Audubon county
should take all necessary precautions il
the matter. To have district Judge il
the county is not only an honor desired
by every county but is great con
venience to the people of the county
Witness the rivalry of the counties fol-
those places. Judge Green has the
confidence of the people of this county
They wish to give him cordial support
He should be allowed the usual custom
given to home candidates in this dis
trict of naming the delegation from hi
county to the convention.
Congressman Smith has no opposing
candidate and will no doubt be renom
mated by reclamation. He deserves it
He has great ability and he has integ
rity and is in fair way to render
splendid service and reflect distin
guished honor on his district and state
There is little contest for state nomina
tions, most being denominations.
There seems to be no candidates for
the places on the county ticket except
the present incumbents of the offices
Auditor Greenwaldt is serving his
second term and would be glad to re-
ceive a third nomination. 1t is gen
orally thought the county never had
better auditor. He is adapted to the
work in every way. Others seem to
concede him the place without contest
Clerk l.. j. Hill, Recorder o. G. Don
aldson, County Attorney F. II. Blume,
and Supervisor J. @. Bonwell are all

to county convention. That county
convention has nothing to do but form
ally-ratify the work of the primary cleo
ton and also select delegates to state
or district conventions. In most coun-
ties where the system is used rule is
adopted requiring the printing of the
names of state and district candidates
on each ballot, especially where there
is contest of importance, aud direct
ing the delegates from the county to
those conventions to be governed by
the majority expression of the county
on the subject.
This is briefly. and in part the pri-
mary plan. 1t submits to the individ-
ual voter the questions now decided in
a delegate convention. 1t is more
complicated, requires more rules,
more work and more expense
than the present plan. 1t has import
ant advantages, however, and the ques-
ton is whether they are of sufficient
Importance to overcome the objections
to it.
Those who favor the primary plan
say that it is in the direction of reform
and of the development of good gov
eminent, that it is more just in that it
gives to each party member chance
to express his wish and to have his vote
registered and counted on every i'm
portant subject, while the present plan
leaves the decision of all candidates. to
politicians and to those who are active
enough to become delegates. Those
who favor the plan say that its adoption
would be beneficial to the party be-
cause the rank and file who do not at
tend conventions or do not get on as
delegates, will thus have the chance to
vote and will therefore be better salts
fed and more loyal to the party.
On the other hand those VINO are OPP
posed to the primary election plan say
there is really very little dissatisfaction
with the present plan except among
some who are occasionally defeated
and, being in the minority, they would
be dissatisfied with any plan, and that
those who do not attend caucus now
and do not get on delegations and then
who kick, would not likely attend pri-
mary elections.
Those who oppose the primary plan
say that it would put an unnecessary
expense on candidates as as they would
need to go to see practically every re-
publican in the county before the pri-
mary election and then, if successful
there, they would have the usual cam
paign before the general election; that
in counties having an overwhelming re-
publican majority the plan might be all
right, as then there would need to be
but one thorough campaign, the one
before the primaries, but that in a
county as close as Audubon that it
would be burdensome.
Some from the country townships
who are opposed to it say it would be
harder to get their votes out to a pri-
mary in the country than in town and
that therefore the towns will practically
do the nominating.
We have presented some of the argu-
ments, we have heard both for and
against the plan. We. repeat them
here because we wish republicans to
consider the subject carefully before
making change. We believe that the
efficiency of the plan would depend
considerably on the kind of rules
adopted. The convention would be
better qualified to act if the rules were
published before final action was taken.
