the nomination Of a United States SEN
ator by the Australian ballot in the
coming legislature. Why? Because
each member of that legislature rep
resents a constituency that l. entitled
to know how he votes for senator.
Therefore the ballot will be open.
In like manner each delegate in a
convention represents a constituency
and he ought to vote in the open so
that those whom he Is supposed to
represent may know how he votes.
1t is right and proper for the in
dividual voter TO cast his ballot secret
". for he is accountable only to him
self; but if nominations are made by
delegate conventions the balloting
should be open and above board that
those to whom the delegate is ac-
countable may know how he repre-
sents them.
Besides. what objection can there
be to allowing each individual voter to
express his choice in making up
ticket. instead Of delegating that pow
er to others? This would not inter-
fere with each party holding conven-
tons and adopting platforms If it SO
desired.

A p1.AN-AND IN OBJECTION.

one of the main objections to the
proposed primary election law Is that
it will do away with conventions rake
away the county convention in OS-
borne county and interest in politics
would soon fall below par. This paper
does not now and never has opposed
primary election law. 1t has stated
time and again that the people will be
disappointed in the workings of pri-
mary and it still believes that most
sincerely. It has been SO wherever
tried and there is no reason to believe
that Osborne county would prove diff
ferent from other counties. In con-
versatfOn with Representative John B.
Taylor of Alton one day he gave US
novel idea in regard to conventions,
which we think is worth considering.
He would have delegates to the con-
ventions elected as now The conven-
ton could then convene, organize,
adopt resolutions. etc. When 1t came
to nominating candidates the dele
gates should vote the Australian ballot
system for their choice. Each dele
gate could 20 into a booth alone and
vote for his choice for all the offices.
This would give every man equal pow
er and put stop to combinations.
trades and chickering's. The main OBJ
jections to conventions as now run is
that they don't allow the delegates to
vote for their choice One man too
frequently votes the whole delegation.
Under this new plan such q thing
T
er.
The objections to the present con-
vention system are correctly cata-
logued by the Farmer. but would the
plan proposed by Mr.. Taylor be an i'm
provement? If delegates to conven-
tons were always thoroughly reliable
men like Mr. Taylor. the plan would.
in a measure be satisfactory. That is.
1t would do away with trading delega-
tions like so many sheep, and it would
allow the individual to use his judg-
ment and vote as he pleases. But how
long would 1t be before venality would
creep into the conventions? How long
would It be before there would be
charges of delegates selling out. if they
were allowed to cast their ballots
secretly?
Mr.. Taylor will scarcely advocate

7HF DENrURRAGE LAW.

The State Journal is in receipt of a
copy of letter addressed by a Kansas
shipper to another paper concerning
4 recent editorial in that paper relat-
ing to the reciprocal demurrage law
The editorial referred to stated that
there is a Joker" in this law which
makes it imperative; that the demur-
rage imposed on railroad company,
if enforced. goes into the state school
fund. and therefore no shipper en-
forces it.
The author of the communication
intimates the belief that the editorial
was inspired from railroad sources.
This, of course, is not true. It was
meant in good faith, and as warning
against "jokers' in future legislation,
but the State Journal believes 1t was
erroneous.
The provision that fines and penal
ties shall 60 into the school fund re-
lates to violations of criminal laws.
while the reciprocal demurrage pro-
vision is purely civil and provides
specially that the demurrage shall be
for the benefit of the shipper who is
damaged by not getting his cars.
The same law that allows a railroad
demurrage from the shipper for not
promptly unloading a car also allows
the shipper demurrage from the rail-
road company for not promptly sup
plying the car.
Probably the reason why shippers
do not appeal to the reciprocal de-
murrage law is because of the trouble
and expense involved in collecting
demurrage on their side of the trans
action. The shipper must make his
application for cars In writing and
tender a part of the freight in ad-
vance. Then to collect the demur-
rage he would become involved in a
lawsuit, with the railroads represented
by high salaried attorneys. Conse-
quently the average shipper hesitates
about tackling that sort Of a PROPOSE
ton.
The railroad company has compare
lively little trouble IN collecting its
demurrage from the shipper for not
promptly unloading cars, for it has
possession of the shippers freight. and
it has only to hold up the freight I'M
til both freight charges and demur-
rage are settled
Perhaps If the shippers side of the
demurrage law were enforced a few
times it would not be such a hard
prODOsitiOn

CHRISTMAS DAY

No other day like this. No pause is

no voice of racial pride is raised this
sacred day. No work of human hands,

the centuries to where the years now
numbered started on their journey
toward eternity. The reach is back to
that great day toward which the distant
ages moved, beneath the touch Of
Heavenly prophecy. A matchless day.

browsed on Judean hills heard wond-
rous music, and the voice of angels sing
ing benediction in the words Of peace.

come to Earth, and sonship and the

firmed in Him who bore the witness of
the Fatherhood of God. And as a child
he came-praise be for such a coming.
