Opposing Honesr Primaries.

1t is apparent that the Cullom inter
ests in this state, the federal crowd,
are opposed TO the enactment of pri-
mary election law. This action is seen
IN the position OF the Cullom press
which is belittling the efforts of Gov
eTnor Deneen to secure law in place
OF the one destroyed by the decision
OF the supreme court. If the Cullom
interests in the Legislature oppose the
enactment of a measure looking to the
purity of the ballot box. it will show
they fear the people and desire TO go
back to the old system of boss rule
There is no doubt as to the senti-
ment OF the people. They are opposed
to the corrupt system that the primary
law was supposed to uproot They
want honest methods. - The old caucus
and convention was fruitful OF corrup-
tiOn. The 'fioaters" voted in both
caucuses and received pay in each in
stance. In this city a larger vote was
cast in two districts than there were
voters, and at least one-third of these
votes. enough to turn the scale, was
purchased. This condition prevailed

The rich man bought his way and then

There is only one way to prevent cor
ruption at the polls and save the ballot
box from pollution A primary election
law alone can do this. Why, then, il
may be asked, are the supporters OF
Senator Cullom opposed to a primary
law? A primary law means faith in
the people 1t practically leaves the
senatorship to be decided by direct
vote CT the people. Why are the Gull
lom;tes opposed to this? Do they feel
safer VT, the bosses than the people?
One OF the Cullom leaders in thet
state is shouting that the special ses-
sion OF the legislature will cost the

Cannon Bows Before Jefferson.


ST. Louis Republic: The stiff neck
OF Speaker Cannon is at last bending
reluctantly under the irresistible force
of JefIersonian priRciple. 1t is the
principle of unhampered commerce
with all nations that will trade with
lis fairly.
Without acknowledging the existence
of jefferson as a force in American
thought and political action. Mr.. Can
non ia at last constrained TO admit
that this Jefersonian principle Is
working so strongly in the affairs OF
the country just now that revision OF
the un-Jeaersonian and altogether ne
farious tariff OF Dingley is a thing in
evitable in the near future.
He says as much in a letter. just pub
lished, TO some pottery concerns st
East Liverpool. Ohio. He hates TO say
it. but is compelled TO- for he sees
clearly that the desire for a change
which exists in the common mind will
drive the republican party, if contin-
ued in power, to n tariff revisionr
/ Mr. Cannon assures the potters tina.
tariff reform will not come from this
congress, and the assurance is good.
for he bosses this body. But he doubt
less foresees that something is going
to drop on Dingleyism in the coming
November elections. 1t is strange that
with this clear vision he and the
forces behind him have not consented
TO the unshackling of trade which the
industry and the commerce of the
country so acutely need.
They seemingly prefer that the tar
iff and the republican party should go
to wreck together. The Jeffersonian
philosophy might save them from this
double disaster. if they were not too
perversely blind to accept it, Jeffer-
son, though favoring freedom of trade.
was no doctrinaire free trader. He
was welded to no academic theory
whatever. His views on tariff and for
eien trade was of the hard-headed,
commercial sort.
In one of his letters Jefferson adj
vances the idea that we might protect
infant industries, but only until they
were well enough grown to stand alone
against foreign competition. 1t was
upon this JeffersOnian principle that
the protectionists in the first congress,
and in all our congresses until the re-
publican party came into power. claim
ed that their industries should. of right
be taken care of in the tariff.
1t is through departure from this
principle. and because it has fortified
overgrown trusts in Dingley robber
castles. that the republican party is
now drifting for plunge over Niagara
and for drowning in the rapids below
if the plunge does not reform it. JEFF
fersosian principles of commerce and
government are too deeply rooted i'll
the American system and in human ma
ture itself to be persistenly resisted
without ruin.
Ii has been said that Jefferson was
not doctrinaire free tSader His en-
barge act is sufficient proof that he
eould put restrictions upon trade even
harder than those of the Dngley act
when driven to retaliation by foreign
injustice to oHr traders. But from the
tribulations which OR commerce suf-
fered during the Napoleonic era he
learned full well the lesson that Amer
lea thrives best through liberal ex-

On tariff and on the relation OF the
federal government TO the several
states the willfully blind republican
leaders are leading their blinafolded
party straight for the ditch. If they
