NEW PRIMARY ELECTION LAW


Kinsley, Kan, May 1.-THE state
ment recently made by e. W. Hoch
republican nominee for governor, that
q new primary election law will be en-
acted next winter, has started law
makers In the state to discussing the
provisions that such law should con-
tain. Frederick Dumont Smith, state
senator from the Thirty-eighth dis
trict, has made the following sugges-
tons:
1.-THE three evils of our present sys-
lem are corruption at the primaries
by repeating and bribery; votes cast
at primaries by members of other par
ties who do not intend to support the
ticket, and contests carried into con-
ventions, resulting in factiOnal differ
ences which cripple the parties. If
these three evils can be eradicated, 1t
Is sufficient. To this end 1t should be
made a misdemeanor for voter to
vote more than once at primary, to
vote outside his ward or precinct, to
accept pay for voting, or to engage in
any fraudulent practice.
Every voter If challenged should
be compelled to swear that he voted
IT, It party ticket at the preceding cleo
ton Except in the case Of new voters
just coming of voting age) in order to
be eligible, Party machinery should
be chosen independently of the con-
ventions. This could be done by the
selection Of precinct committeeman at
a primary, as party nominees are
chosen"

WONDERFUL CURE

EIGHT DOCTORS

"About five years ago I was troubled
with sore hands, so sore that when !
would put them in water the pain would
very nearly set me crazy, the skin would
peel off and the flesh would get hard
and break. There would be blood flow
ing from at least fifty places on each
hand. Words could never tell the suf-
fering endured for three years. I
tried everything that I was told to use
for fully three years, but could get no
relief 1 tried at least eight different
doctors, but none Of them seemed to do
me any good, as my hands were az bad

/ first began. / also tried many RENEE
dies, but none Of them ever did me one
cents worth Of good. l was discour-
aged and heart-sore. / would feel 80
bad mornings when got up, to think
I had to go to work and stand the pain
for ten hours, and often felt like CIV
ing up my position. Before | started
to work mornings I would have to
wrap every finger up separately, so
as to try and keep them soft and then
wear gloves over the rags to keep
the grease from getting on my work.
At night I would have to wear gloves
in bed. In fact, had to wear gloves
all the time. But thanks to Cuticura,
the greatest Of all great skin cures.
After doctoring for three years, and
spending much money, a Soc. box Of
Cuticura Ointment ended all my suffer-
ings. It's been two years since / used
