The primary method of election
will reach its highest aim and
achieve its best results when each
voter closely scans the quallfica-
tons of those who seek his sup
port, and select those who are
best equipped by reputation and
character to assume the trusts
committed to their guidance. No
mistakes can be made when this
rule is adopted.
