tg-'ln my opinion the anti-pass
and primary election laws are
the most important enactments
that have become statutory pro-
VISION In years. An element of
the republican party is con-
tinually pointing with pride to
those two laws, in fact two or
three men claim the entire dis
tmctiOn for these. enaetments.
They hold them up as commodi-
ties and barter them for support.
The first test vote on the anti
pass law stood GA for and 81
agamst-and this measure had
exactly the same democratic SUD-
port as the primary election law,
that was passed a year later at a
special session. Of the GA men
who voted for the anti4paSS law,
% were democrats and 50 repub-
llcanS supported that import
ant measure than democrats.
There were 90 republicans in
that holIse--6 more republican
only than democrats voting for
that measure, and all the credit
OF the enactment gulped down
at a single swallow by the al
legged square dealres and they are
not large enough nor square
enough to hint of democratic
support. The Topeka Capital of
January 81, 1907, in an editor
ial says: There is only one un-
fortunate feature about yester-
days decisive vote that is the
large support that it was neces-
sary to win from the democrats
to carry the Stone bill" When
that bill came before the senate
1t was found that it couldn't pay
that body in its entirety and
the present anti,pass law is the
compilation Of Senator Getty as
sisted by a democrat. Section
after section after section was
substituted by Mr.. Getty for
the Stone bill and the law as
It stands today is almost the en-
tire creation of Senator Getty,

deal faction and whose good
work has never been mentioned

mary election law given to the
democrats and by a man who
was probably not entirely In
sympathy with the measure, and
never a word of commentator
from that wing of the party who
are now making it politi-
cal asset-when the measure
reached the senate it received in
the committee of the whole the
democratic support that made
ITS enactment a possibility. The
democratic party made these
and all other like measures
laws and it is time the good peo-
pie of the state knew the facts.
They have referred to the taxa
ton Of express companies as a
measure of their own creation.
These companies had been enjoy
ing the privileges of state laws
for years and never had paid a
cent taxes on the business they
had done. In 1907 a democratic
senator copied the Ohio law, in
troduced it in the senate and it
became a law and the express
companies are now paying a reas-
enable amount of taxes. One of
the most prominent square dealer
OF the house fought the measure,
and | never have been able to
reconcile the reasons that
prompted him to do 50. One of
