Edi F0ri0I Comment.
Mr.. Ferris Meetings.

Mr.. Ferris has come and gone, and it
is safe to say his efforts to instruct the
people have accomplished little to ad-
vance his candidacy in Van Buren,
county, Notwithstanding the lurid &C
counts of his meetings that had their
birth in the fertile brain of the special
correspondent accompanying him over
the state, and that tirst saw the light of
day from the columns of the Detroit
Tribune, one of the list of constituencies
newspapers that has been consistent
enemy of the republican party, under
the direction Of JAS. e. Scripps. The
truth is that Mr.. Ferris was accorded
respectful hearing in this county, such
as a candidate for governor was entitled
to- but he created no great enthusiasm,
and we do not believe he is a vote
stronger than he was before his coming
Mr. Ferris did not deign to tell the
people whether the things mentioned in
The True NortherDer last week were
true or false-and We insist that they
were true. and that Mr.. Ferris knew it
He did pot answer one of the questions
asked, and he knew they had been asked.

tons upon him was a marked change in
his Paw Paw and Bangor speeches from
the one delivered at Hamilton. In
that place he lauded the Minnesota
system-in Paw Paw and Bangor he left
it severely alone.
Who is most apt to be right about the
workings of the Minnesota law, Mr..
Ferris, the Michigan school teacher, or
the able editor of the Minneapolis
Tribune?
Mr.. Ferris, as was expected, worked
the mon partisan" idea to the fullest ex-
tent, but he cannot disguise the fact that
he is a lifelong democrat, who is not
making his first canvass for public Office
on the democratic ticket, and that if
elected it will be as a democrat, and that
his appointees will be democrats
what's the use of all this? He isn't GO
ing to be elected.
Mr.. Ferris pointed out evils in our
political system concerning which all
agree, but he did not give any logical
reason for his theory that the democratic
party can or will do any more for their
abatement than the republicans.
Some kind of new primary law will
doubtless be enacted by the next state
legislature, and Fred NJ. Warner is
pledged to sign any bill of this kind that
is passed. We hope that the state con-
ventions will not be done away with, and
we do not believe they will.
Mr.. Ferris had nothing whatever to
say on national issues, although we are
in the midst of a great national cam.
paign. We don't know as we can blame
him very much. The democracy is very
much afraid of Roesevelt's popularity
and national prosperity.

Democracy IN Two States.

The Michigan democracy with its ere
form" cry would lead the people to be-
lieve that so-called primary reform" is
a distinctly democratic plan, approved
universally by the democratic party.
Just as a little side light on the question,
it is interesting to see what the Wscon
sin democratic state platform says this
year:
1--WE are opposed to the primary cleo
ton law passed by the last legislature.
1t is undemocratic because it destroys
the right of the people to assemble to
consider men as candidates, and princi-
pies for platforms 1t taxes from the
people the right to direct the official
conduct of their public servants by the
adoption of platforms before the nomi.
nation of candidates. 1t gives to the
candidates after their nomination the
exclusive power to make their own plat
forms. 1t would create great and I'M
necessary expense, to be paid from the
public treasury. 1t would deprive the
minority party in every election district
of the right to nominate its own candi-
dates, and would in effect place in the
hands of the majority party power to
nominate not only its own candidates,
but to'nominate candidates for the mi
nority as WE'LL
The measure submitted to the voters
of Wisconsin for ratification or rejection
this fall, which is so severely objected to
by the Wisconsin democracy, is practi-
cally the same as the Colby bill, which
was defeated in the last Michigan legis-
lature, for which action the last state
senate is berated day after day by Can
didate Ferris.
The fact that in Wisconsin as well as
in Michigan there is great doubt as to
the efficiency of an extreme and sweep
ing primary measure, confirms us IN our
judgment that it is wise to make haste
slowly" and that the republican idea
is much more conservative and safe than
that of the democratic party in this
state.

College Athletics and Drink.

Several New England newspapers
have emphasized the discovery of a
wagonload of whisky bottles under
the seats occupied by students at the
recent Yale-Harvard football game
These bottles were all filled. il ap-
pears, when the game began. and
were emptied in full view of thou
sands of spectators, and to the direct
discredit of the almae matri.
One of orr New England contem-
poraries suggests that such free and
open drinking at a race meet would
put the whole institution OF racing
under tho ban At a professional
football game it would probably end
in the interference Of the police. But
at this contest between two institu-
lions of learning it passed for sport.
Another vice has grown apace with
drink in our colleges Betting on the
outcome of football and baseball
games is quite as much a matter of
course. 1t has, apparently, become a
test OF certain kind of college spirit.
So that today the contributory ele-
ments of our intercollegiate athletic
contests would seem to be drink and
gambling.
OF course, no one supposes that this
Inference is literally true. The stu
dent body al every college in Amer
lea, at those in the District of Co
lumbia. at any rate, is attentive to its
studies, earnest. and self-respecting
beyond the temptations of intemper-
ance and gambling. But the real stu
dent body is never so much in evil
dence as that element which follows
a football game through the neck of
whisky bottle or notes the outcome
as the decision Of & bet. And a
wagonlOad of bottles indicates that
Yale and Harvard have a particularly
large enrolment of this class. Much
as The Times believes in athletics. 1t
is yet impelled to the opinion that
these two colleges would better sacri-
flee a little of their athletic prestige
to obtain a little better control over
their students.

Women as Voters.

For many years a certain element

New York'S Chance.

The office OF the district attorney
in New York city believes it has found
a gigantic plot for the corruption of
the courts. The working Of this plot
consists in the buying of jurymen.

the method of selecting jurymen.
Representative citizens fitted for the
