| The objection that they will not do so
was urged against the sentimental vote
for United States senator when that
provision was inserted in the bill which
was declared unconstitutional. But ev-
erybody now recognizes the fact that
such a vote will be binding, as it is in
all those states which have such laws.
Publicity, here as elsewhere, will pre-
vent indirection and manipulation
ID. No provision regarding instruc-
tons for county officers was made, in
order to allow those counties which de-
sired to nominate county officers by
plurality vote to do So
ID. The law provides that there
shall be no alternates or proxies va
canc;es being filled by the delegates
from the district. No one can act as
an officer of convention who is not
a delegate, and the chairman of each
convention shall be elected by roll call
Credentials are issued by the county
clerk and the county court determines
contests before the convention con-
venes. This prevents manipulation by
the committee on credentials and abol-
ishes the contesting delegation.
Is Compromise.
The law is compromise. In the
general assembly there are five classes
of opinion:
First-Those who favored the nom
ination of county officers only by 4
plurality vote. not permitting the
names of any other candidates to be
placed upon the official ballot.
Second-Those who favored the NOM
nation of all candidates by plurality
vote, abOliShing all conventions.
Third-ThoSe who favored the direct
nomination of such candidates as re-
ceived high plurality Votes per
cent was named-otherwise, nominal
tons to be made by convention.
Fourth-Those who favored direct
nominations by majority vote; other
wise. nominations to be made by con-
vention.
Fifth-ThOse who favored uniform
date for primaries and a uniform date
for conventions, leaving the manage
ment of the primaries and conventions
to the judgment of the several county
committees, as at present in SO coun-
ties of the state
A compromise was effected upon the
basis of instructing the delegates by
plurality vote. but requiring a majority
Of the delegates TO nominate.
1t will be seen from the facts stated
| that the present law goes beyond the
pledges of the party platform, beyond
the law which was declared unconsti-
| tutional, and is long step in advance
| in primary legislation.
While the bill is not an ideal primary
law, it will appear from reading it that
much of the criticism to which it has
been subjected is unfounded and that
the bill is in fact meritorious meas
ure and will grow in the popular con-
hdence as the people become familiar
with its operation. This bill represents
the best compromise that could be eff
| fected of the different views represent
ed in the general assembly.
