There were few surprises in the
result of Saturdays primaries. The
people Of the State appear to have
interested themselves very general
ly. and the nominations made
must be accepted rs the choice of
each party.
The fact that the ballot IN all dis
stricts was large one has has made
it difficult to get early returns in
many instances; in some the details
will not be complete for day or two
yet. Counting the returns is more
difficult than similar work at the
general election for the reason that
there are no. ballots marked for
straight tickets in a party square.
Ea h name has to be marked
separately, aud as there were more
IA nes on the ballot than appear on
The general election ballot the task
has some difficulties.
1t was the severest test of the
syste Il that could be applied. 1t is
only in presidential year that such
a large number of candidates are to
be voted for. Not withstanding this
fact no complaints are heard from
any where but Pittsburgh, where it
is alleged some citizens were un.
able to cast their ballots for want of
time. 1t is possible that the time
taken by some voters in marking
their ballots was SO great AS to en-
croach upon the time of others. but
the conditions in Pittsburg were ex-
ceptional at this election, and cannot
be made applicable to the remainder
of the state or any part Of it.
In those districts where there were
contests -and as matter of fact con-
tests were quite general--the vote
cast has been relatively large. This

party conditions, and more salts
factory both to the winning and los
ing candidates. The larger the vote
the more certain is the nomination
to represent the dominant sentiment
Of the party, and it assures the candi-
date better popular support at a
general election.
No one can object to the new sys-
tenn when elections are faitly con
Quoted, and no one does object. 1t
has been accepted by politicians and
people as an Improvement on old
methods, which were not uniform
and often unfair. 1t received test
on Satnr lay whose success will do
much to assure the permanency of
the system. m.--Phila. Press.

Last "Wednesday night in a hut
in the great wilderness near La
quin, Louiga Blondi, an italian
woodsman was shot to death by a
revolver in the hands of a relative
Salvatore Blondi. The shooting
was the climax of a quarrel which
started week previous to the ira
gedy. In the scutile the man who
did the shooting had a bullet from
his revlver driven into his stomach,
but it is thought that he will re.
cover faom the wound. Louiga
Blcndi was shot in the head and
died instantly. Another relative
was shot in the arm and is now
in the Williamsport hospital.
If the murderer recovers from
the bullet wound of his own
revolver, he stands u good chance
