The bill for direct primary nomina-

Of the fact that both parties professed
TO be in favor of II during the cam.
paign This very fact proves the need
Of just such a law, in combination
with the initiative and referendum.
As things go now, the party bosses,
large and small run the party, and
about all the people have to do with
.it Is TO pay the freight The would be
candidate must deal mainly with the
bosses, for It they oppose him, popu.
larity with the dear people will do
him little good. F4
Therefore it takes a man of much
more than ordinary stamina to go
counter to the wishes of the bosses,
even when he knows the will of the
majority Of his constituents, and he
usually has to guess at that.
The bosses and wire pullers large
and small are mostly opposed to the
primary nomination law for that
would be a severe blow to their pow
err.
Make the office holder responsible
directly to the people; let him know
that his denomination will not depend
on few men skilled in the art OF
manipulating a convention, but on the
temper Of the mass OF his constitu.
ents, and he will be much more likely
10 do what In his judgment will best
