New Primary Law

"a There appears to be a disposition i'll
New Jersey to get into a mix-up over
the proposed new primary election law.
Governor Fort wants the act to provide
for the election of national d~elegatesby
direct vote, but somebody has discover
ed that the call for the nation conyen-
ton requires that such delegates shall be
chosen by conventions regularly called
on thirty days notice. That is true
enough as far as it goes, but the call
also declares that where the laws of a
State provide for an election of delegat-
es by popular vote that method shall
prevail. The nation rules of the party
require simply that the district delegat-
es shall be chosen in the same manner
as candidates for Congress are nominal
ted. If New Jersey wants to enact a
law to select delegates by popular vote
it will go with the national convention
if the nomination of candidates for Con-
gress is included in the same system.
Delegates-at-large naturally will be
chosen by State conventions where such
conventions are held. If our New Jer-
sey friends want to know how these
things are done let them come to Penn

Hard To AnalyZe

EGoTIsM, e~motionalism and religion
are often difficult to analyze. Hun
dreds of well meaning persons, highly
emotional, confound their vanity-their
egotism-their love of lime light-with
religion, and naturally the latter has to
suffer for the short comings OF strong
minded zealots. This has been the case
throughout all time. And now comes
a pathetic case from Philadelphia.
Mabel Collins, who ran away with the
Holy Ghosters and is reported a physi-
cal wreck, no doubt would have been
as easily influenced to join a vaudeville
troupe by some clever rascal, and for
this reason the State ought to guard
zealously against the demogogue-the
monte bank-in religion as against the
auack medicine vendor: Truth will
never have to suffer from the rigid en-
forcement of the laws against the i'm
