THE SHARPE PRIMARY BILL

It is now agreed that primary
election bill, of a comprehensive and
general nature, will pass at this ses-
sion of the legislative assembly and
become a law. All factions of all
parties are committed to the principle
of the primary and the only question
will be as to the details of the law
that will be passed. It is to the in
terest of the people Of the state to OBJ
tain the best public servants possible,
and at the same time it is to the
interest of the general body polite
that political parties be not so far
weakened by a primary law that their
usefulness and effectiveness as organ
izations for the good of the people
are lost. 1t will not do to eliminate
political parties. At the same time, it
may be possible to obtain a primary
law that will serve both purposes
advance the selection Of representa-
tive men as officials and to avoid
destroying political parties.
Senator Sharpe has presented a
general primary bill in the senate.

AN APOLOGY

The Tribune owes its readers an apology and
explanation.
The premature publication OF Governor
Burke's inaugural address in Yesterdays issue
was an error on the part of the mechanical
department. that is deeply regretted.
Such an error never before happened in the
Tribune office.
The matter was set up and placed on what is
known as the dump for publication today In
some way the heading of primary Election
Law became attached to it and thinking it was
an article intended for the morning issue left by
the day force it was made up i'm the supplement
editorial or news departments and no one dis
covered the error until the papers were on the:
streets @
1t was purely an error on the part of new
printer and one the Tribune regrets exceedingly.
Those who are familiar with the printing
business will understand how such an error was
liable to occur.
The purpose of this explanation is to convince
any of our readers who may have supposed the
publication intentional.
Both messages appear in today's issue in
proper form
Governor Burke understands how the error
occurred and we beg of our readers a charitable
consideration Of the blunder, and proper appre-
citation of our regrets.

mary movement of two years ago and
at that time presented a general pri-
mary measure that came near pass
ing the two houses of the legislature.
The experience of this state with the
partial primary law that was passed
has doubtless been beneficial in
suggesting changes from the law
proposed then, in the interest of a
completer accomplishment of the pur-
poses aimed at in a primary law.
There will be amendments and
changes proposed to any primary law
that may be presented and some Of
them no doubt will tend to benefit the
measure that may finally be passed.
Senator Sharpe's bill promises to re-
ceive especially careful consideration
from the fact that his measure of two
years ago found more favor than any
other bill presented.
In order that the nature Of the bill
land the system Of selections it pro.
poses may be understood, the follow
ing summary Of the provisions OF the
bill will be OF interest. Under the
provisions Of the proposed law ali
county, state and municipal officers
in cities having a population OF over
5000 will be nominated under the
primary system This includes

supreme Judges, congressman and
even precinct and county party com
