There are some people who have
strange ideas about running a newspaper.
They seem to have an idea that the chief
labor of an editor is to get something to
put in his paper. These people are SO
kind that they often 60 to great expense
just to furnish '.free" copy for publica.
tion. Indeed most papers could Hi their
columns with this ''free" copy almost
every issue-and as result all the edit
or would have to do would be to sit back
and smoke cigars-if only these good
people would be thoughtful enough to
send the cigars with the copy.
This "free'' matter comes from all
sorts and kinds of folks. Colleges, rail
ways, Standard. Oil, politicians, United
States and state officials. societies, civic
corporations, churches, bankers, schools,
as we'll as innumerable faddists, are all
regular ''contributers.''
For several years, at Intervals, fol
instance, somebody from Canada sends

and what the tracts are really about

Sometimes the free matter furnished
is really worthy Of reprod uction in the
paper and is often used by the editor
but generally in condensed or modified
form, as it is really advertising for the
parties interested.
Strange as it may seem to some o1
these and others, it is fact that the
average editor can usually find all the
editorial material that he has room fol
in his paper, right in his own Office, and
generally from his own brains.
But there is one sort Of of matter that
is always welcome in the newspaper

SENATORIAL OATH
UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Following the decisions of the Illinois
and Nebraska courts the supreme court
of this state last week knocked out the
part of the primary law by which the
candidates are compelled to pay excess
i've fees for the privilege of having their
names put on the primary ballot.
Readers of this paper will remember
that we have always opposed the pri-
mary law and particularly this provision
not that this provision in itself was so
very obnoxious, but that it was an ex-
treme which showed that the whole
thing was unconstitutional. It is but
an effort of the lawmakers to overcome
the vital objection of the increased cost
of an extra election to the taxpayers.
While the court has not in words de-
clared the whole law unconstitutional,
yet following the specific negation of
the provision for fees, it also adds the
very broad, general principle; ;-"It is in
competent for the legislature to prescribe
qualifications for voters Or candidates
for Office in addition to those fixed in
the constitution
We contend and have contended that
in nearly every provision Of the primary
law Of this state, the. legislature has at
tempted to prescribe qualifications for
voters and candidates for Office in addi-
tion to those fixed in the constitution.
Here are the provisions OF the consti-
tuition. Every male person Of the age
of,twenty-one years and upwards belong
ing to either Of the following classes,
who shall have resided in the state one
year, il the comfy six months and in
the precinct ninety days next preceding
any election, shall be deemed qualified
elector at such election. First; citizens
of the United States. Second; civilized
persons Of Indian descent, etc., !.
