The Result and the Duty.

| The Result ana the Duty.
The democrats, in the part they took
in the primary elections in Rock Island
county Saturday reasserted themselves
in behalf of clean politics. Had the
vote been larger the expression would
have been stronger In the opportuni-
ties that presented themselves the
democrats chose representative candi-
dates in J. G. Britton for the legisla-
ture and Cornelius Donovan for sheriff.
The result, therefore, is as satisfac-
tory as could be desired. But the duty
of the Rock Island county democracy
does not end with Saturday. There is
county convention to be held Thurs
day of this week, to which delegates
were elected Saturday. 1t is the duty.
both as far as party fealty is concern
ed and under the primary law, for ev-
cry democrat elected to that conven-
ton to be present. The party has eX-
pressed itself on the question of a can
didate for sheriff There are other
places on the county ticket TO be filled.
The convention does not necessarily
have to supply the places to make the
nominations valid, but it may in proper
form declare vacancies, to be filled
later by the county committee 1t may
by resolution also make such recon-
mendations as it desires to the county
Il prevailing sentiment all over the
county supporting such declaration
in favor of Former County Treasurer
John Schafer for the office he once
filled with so much satisfaction to the
people of the county and credit to him.
self.
1t may be plainly seen. therefore
that the selection of the new county
committee is all important, as are the
governing officers of that organization.
The delegates are to select the COM
mitteemen. Upon the composition of
the county committee will depend the
success of the democratic ticket at the
polls next November The party has
already practically declared itself on
the candidacy for sheriff as well as for
the legislature. What may be done in
filling out the county ticket will de-
pend upon the county committee That
committee should be selected with the
greatest care; there must be no slips
if the party is to command the respect
of its own membership and the conf
dence OF the people generally in No
vember.
The Argus believes the outlook is
most propitious for success in the coun-
ty election. 1t believes in harmonious
action looking to that end. To insure
harmonious action, discordant elements
must be esche wed.
The Argus has only to ask of the
county convention that it provide for
commendable ticket and see that the
of party affairs is in good
hands.

The shortcoming that has

The shortcOming that has always
been conspicuous in the general cleo.
ton laws of the state is also true of
the primary enactment. 1t makes no
provision for the immediate knowledge
OF the returns. This the public is en-
titled to- In the face OF such facts the
best efforts that all the newspapers
may put forth, both through prelim-
mary precautiOn and hard work on the
night OF the elections, must fail. In many
of the precincts the public must await
announcement of the official returns
To remedy this defect a very little pro-
vision is essential. 1t should be oblig-
atory through statutory enactment that
judges furnish the county cleIl. a du-
plcate transcript of the returns as
soon as the count is made This would
serve the purposes of publication
throughout the state. As it is now.
in many instances the judges and
clerks of election go home as soon as
the count is finished, and neither the
county clerk nor the newspapers hear
from them until the next day and
sometimes a day or two afterward
The election board should be required
to make their duplicate report to the
county clerk the minute the count is
completed.
