When C. A. Johnson was a
member of the S andinavian Re.
publican league of Ward county,
he made.a speech in favor of a
primary election law. In fact
this league was originated ex-
pressly for the purpose Of rail
reading such q bill through. The
league knew that when such a
proposition came up, the big
politicians would bring all their
influence to bear against it's
passing. Mr.. johnson has been
accused recently Of working
against the passage OF the pri.
mary election bill, but the hide
pendent can hardly believe that
this is Sc. We have talked with
hundreds Of voters in all parts
of the county during the past
month and have found not one
but who is not in favor of a
sweeping primary election law
passing.
