Ed -0ri0I Comment.

The primary extremists seem to be
losing ground in Michigan. The last re-
publican state convention adopted a
very sensible resolution on the primary
question, and we hope the state nomi-
mating convention will reiterate that
identical resolution. 1t does not seem
TO us desirable that all conventions
should be done away with. 1t is in con-
vention halls that party leaders from
different sections meet together and dis
cuss public questions freely, and it is
there that party policies are largely
formulated. This is an age of organiza-
ton, and the remedy for our political
ills is not by doing away with organized
parties, but rather through the medium
of the parties themselves. We believe
ia political parties, and that every good
citizen should be identified with some
party organization, not as something to
be ashamed of, but as something in
which to take just degree of pride To
do away with all conventions would
surely demorallze party organization.
Then, too, we are interested in main
tanning the influence of the rural
counties, which is at present no mean
factor in state politics. The cities are
the home of most of our political cor
ruption, and the compulsory primary is
nothing more nor less than scheme for
city domination of state politics. il any
community desires to nominate its local
officers by direct vote. we have not the
slightest objection. We are surprised
that the Detroit press, after persistently
bowling for "home rule" should try to
cram so-called primary reform" down
the throats of those who do not want it.
Local option in this matter is fair, and
as for US, we can stand squarely and sat
isfied on the latest state platform.

" THE ONLY WAY "
To the Worlds Fair, st. Louis.

Fittingly and permanently commemor-
ating the vast Importance of the Louis
lana Purchase Exposition, the year 1904
will witness the completion of the new
line of The Chicago & Alton Railway
between Kansas City and st. Louis.
Operation over this new road, which will
be the short line between Kansas City
and st. Louis will commence about
June Is, 1904-only a short time later
than the opening of the Worlds Fair.
In time of completion, and also in other
ways the Atoms new line is typical of
the fair. The st. Louis Exposition will
show the highest examples of every pro-
duct of all kinds in the world, as will the
Chicago & Alton new line show the high
est standard to which the worlds rail
ways can be brought. AS the Worlds
Fair will illustrate the processes which
make American goods preferred in the
markets of the world, so the Chicago &
Alton will illustrate in all details-con-
struction, equipment and operation
the accepted standards, which serve as
models for the worlds common carriers.
The trains run via the Atoms new
Kansas City st. Louis line will provide
additional and very much faster service
to and from the Worlds Fair city, and
our readers will do we'll to make sure
that their tickets read between Kansas
City and st. Louis via 1.-THE Only Way"
