Primary Reform.
From the Hastings Banner:

FROM the huStlnRS banner.
The republicans of Barry County and
the state of Michigan have declared in
convention for primary reform. Tojust
what extent it will be wise to go, for
the best interests of the people is ques-
ton worthy of the serious consideration
of the voters of this county and state.
Reform" of the primaries is some
thing that is comparatively new to the
people of this state and it is matter
worthy of most serious comment and
consideration that its agitation at this
particular time is due in no small degree
to the boodling tactics pursued by
Messrs. Bliss, Ferry, and Stearns four
years ago. Of these gentlemen. Mr..
Stearns has recently issued manifesto
that places him in the ranks of the most
extreme primary reformers, position at
extreme variance with his actions of
four years ago.
When ''old-fashioned" honest methods
prevailed; when ''the Office sought the
uidil anu DclOIt luilllOIdlTe Cdnu1uaUeS
whose chief qualifications were barrels
of money and disposition to tap them
freely, sought to corrupt caucuses and
buy up delegates in order to control
conventions; when these times prevailed
there was no need of any change in the
caucuses or convention methods. But
late innovations have not only made
change desirable, but really necessary,
at least in most counties of this state.
As far as Barry County republicans are
concerned they are recognized as oc-
cupying most honorable and dignified
stand and in view of even recent events
they have every reason to be proud Of
their position two years ago. We be-
lieve we are safe in saying that no
county in the state has cleaner politics
than Barry county. and probably there
is as little need of Primary reform in
this county as in any county in the
state Nevertheless we feel that GER
tain primary election reforms would
tend to greater purity of elections and

In view of the fact that Mr.. Stearns
is basing his candidacy for governor on
a primary reform platform it is little
amusing to note the statement of his
secretary, Mr.. Williams, that Scott
Griswold has been engaged" to take
charge of Mr.. Stearns' campaign in
Kent county, and that Milo d. Camp
bell has been engaged" to perform a
like service in Branch county.
