DO WE WANT A PRIMARY
ELECTION LAW?

From some quarters comes the cry
for Primary Election Law. Past ex-
perience in this section will not go
well TO being a unanimous demand for
sucn plan. In practical use ii has
been found defective and productive
OF intense and non-cOmproni.ing bit
terness. Theory aud practice are two
entirely different things. The general
convention plan has defects, but to
our minds the primary plan has two
where it has one. The people Of
course can demand legaiized primar-
les and the present legislature will no
doubt grant the request, but We should
like to see the call = little bit more
unanimous aud the need more press
ing before any definite action is taken.
Much good can be doue by making

Glass Telegraph Poles.

At Grossalmerode, a town near
Cassel, Germany, a factory has
recently been established for the
manufacture of glass telegraph
and telephone poles.
The glass mass of which the
poles are made is strengthened by
interlacing and INTERVIEWING with
strong wire threads. One of the
principal advantages Of these
poles, it is i'd, would be their use
in tropical countries, W here wooded
poles are soon destroyed by the
ravages of insects and where elm
