RESULT OF THE PRIMARY.

THE result of the primary election on Satur-
i day shows that the Republicans of the
State arc satisfied with the present control OF the
party's affairs. The primaries were free and open
and the vote was an expression of confidence
which should inspire the leaders to still further
efforts to guide the party in this State so that
there shall be no cause for discomfort.
We do not fancy that the vote in any sense was
lack of commendation for the administration OF
President Roosevelt, as it will doubtless be con-
strued by some Of the critics. The convention
tomorrow will have an opportunity to express
itself upon the national administration, and we do
not fancy that such expression will be made IN
half-hearted or perfunctory manner.
The Republicans OF Delaware will be in line
with the Republicans throughout the country in
supporting the administration at Washington,
and we believe that the Republicans OF Delaware
will favor the nomination OF Mr.. Taft for Presi-

awETn ANp apRY9 IN KENT.

A WE fancied, the reports that the license
question might enter into the partisan
politics Of the State during the next campaign
have called forth adverse comments from politi-
cal leaders who took important part on the
anti-license side during the local option CAM
paign.
We printed the remarks of the Sussex Repub-
can, edited by Colonel Robert c. Houston one
OF the foremost Of the dry" advocates, on Satur-
day and, according to an editorial reprinted from
the Delawarean, Of Dover, to-day, the license
problem is disturbing the Democrats of Kent
county The Delawarean is edited by the Hon.
William Salisbury who, like Mr.. Houston was
leader for the "drys" working in Kent county
Doubtless the views of Mr.. Houston and Mr.
Salisbury are those held by many active Repub-
leans and Democrats who followed the prohibi-
ton flag during the November election.
The opinions of these editors show clearly that
they have no disposition to inject the license
question into the ordinary politics of the year,
and any attempts to consider wet" or dry can
didates for different offices or for the cleo
ton Of delegates to conventions will not have
the approval of large element of the temperance
advocates in the lower counties They think this
specific question was settled for the time being at
least and that it concerns not the politics Of the
coming campaign.

their choice of candidates Convention nomina-
ton for any political party, in our judgment, is
step backward.
It is argued that the primary for the nomns-
ton OF candidates subjects the aspirants for
nominations to the demands of grafters and en-
tails great expense upon candidates. This of
course. is deplorable, and has been an evil in the
primaries, but there should be some way to stop
these practices without resorting to the conven-
ton method Of nomination The candidates. in
their eagerness to secure nominations often
yield to the grafters but if they would band
themselves together to resist such demands they
might halt the practices The same line of rea-
soning for conventions, carried to its logical con-
cusion, could be urged against all elections.
We think it would be much better TO try to stop
the grafters without adopting the extreme meas
ure of abolishing the time-honored custom Of
nominations by primaries.
Other States are moving towards the primary
nomination plan, and in many States the election
of even United States senators by primaries is
followed as far as possible-that is the voters in
primaries express their choice for senators.
Evening journal., 1908-04-06
NOMINATION BY CONVENTION.

IT HERE is some talk among Republicans OF
changing the rules Of the party so that
nominations for county offices shall be made by
convention instead of by primary vote in which
all the voters are given an opportunity 20 express
directly their choice of candidates for different
county offices.
Such change should not be even considered
without great deliberaton, for il involves large
princple-that of the direct voice of the people
in party conduct and in the selection of candi-
dates
The Democrats of the county nominate some
OF their candidates by conventions and others by
direct primaries. To be nominated in conven-
ton, delegates to that convention are chosen
Often these delegates are presumed to be for 4
certain man for an office, when as matter of fact
they are for another. By the convention plan the
voters are practically prevented from expressing

TROLLEY MEN SHOULD ORGANIZE.

TT HE reduction Of ten per cent in the wages
i of the employees Of the Wilmington
City Railway Company is unfortunate, both TOR
the men and the company. The action OF the
COMPANY calls attention to the men who faithfully
serve the people and the company on our street
car lines Doubtless the company has telt a loss
In business owing TO the depressed times. When
concern is forced to meet heavy interest
charges. It must find some means OF making these
payments.
We don't know whether this company is over
capitalized or not, but the failure to meet eT-
penses by trolley companies is often owing 10
their heavy capitalization.
Not considering, for the moment, the present
cut in wages it is we'll TO recall that employees OF
trolley companies in most places arc poorly paid,
considering their labor. 1t seems to be rule
that these companies, which are supposed TO
Weld large profits to the holders OF their stock,
paw their men small wages.
Under the new rule OF the Wilmington City
Company the men are to receive at the rate OF
S. dav for a day of twelve hoursl Think OF It
twelve hours work a day Long hours and
such work No wonder the sympathy Of the pub
lie is with the exploited employees OF the trolley
company
This reduction in wages, however should teach
one lesson 70 the employees of the company. They
should organize at once for their own protection
II ever a set Of working men needed an organiza-
ton to look out for their own interests, 1t IS the
employees of this company.

MERIDEN HAS MONEY.
Only Delay in Paying Up is the Cues
ton of the Grounds.

Meriden, Feb. 10.-Charles Smart
and Charles HI. Cheney say that lack
of funds was not the reason for their
failure to buy the Norwich team.
They say they have the money but
they do not want to improve the Ham
over park ball grounds to the extent
of 1000 for the benefit of the rail
road company. AS soon as the ground
matter can be arranged they are
ready to pay the price for the club,
O'Neil, Danaher, Durant and O'Rourke
the Big Four of the league, will
come here Tuesday and have another
consultation about the franchise.
Manager Clarkin of Hartford is very
anxious to have Meriden in the league
and his advice will be sought in the
matter.
Mr. Smart said: I'VE have the money
now and we had it yesterday to buy
the team and stand ready to buy 1t
now If decent arrangements can be
made about the grounds. am hopeful
that when we meet the committee
here next Tuesday that the matter will
be fixed up and the team transferred.
II will not he our fault If ii is not. but
we do not think it wise TO put al the
money into the fixing up of the park. :"
The league directors are thoroughly
satisfied with the action of Smart and
Cheney and fully realize that they
are the kind Of men they want asso-
ciated with them; If they did not they
would not bother about arranging to
meet them next Thursday.

DIED SUDDENLY
Miss Mary Gallagher Attacked
BY Heart Failure.

Miss Mary Gallagher, daughter OF
Mr. and Mrs Thomas Gallagher of
359 Bishop street, died Saturday
evening while out for sleighride
with John Schiefer Of Middlebury.
The couple left Miss Gallagher's
home about o'clock, intending to
make a trip to WATERFOWL. When
they had reached a point some short,
distance beyond the Wilkes house at
the trotting park on the WatertoWn
road, Miss Gallagher complained of
dizziness and requested Mr. Schiefer
to return home. He did so, but
when they got to the Wilkes house
the girl was SO i'll she could not pro-
coed farther and asked to be taken
in there and the family physician, DR.
Castle, summoned. Her companion
promptly complied with the request
and on entering the house the girl
was placed in chair and the doctor
called on the phone. He was not
in his Office and then it was decided
to call DR. McLinden, but before this
could be done the girl had passed
away. The family was notified and
Medical Examiner Crane and Depu-
ty Coroner Makepeace were also no
titled, which showed that death was
due to heart failure. DR. Castle had
treated her for this complaint on
and off for the past few years and
he informed the deputy coroner that
he expected Miss Gallagher would be
taken away without much warning
She was % years of age and held
position as timekeeper In the packing
department at the Waterbury Manu-
featuring Co. She was bright,
clever young woman and was held
In high esteem by all who knew her.
Besides her parents she leaves three
brothers, Charles, Thomas and John
Gallagher. The family and also Mr.
Schiefer have the sympathy of a
wide circle of relatives and friends.
1t was very sad affair, but no re-
sponsibility attaches to anybody.
Her companion did the best he pos
sibly could under the circumstances.
The funeral will be held to ST iuom-
ass church tomorrow morning at
$50 O'Clock.
