PRIMARY LAW
MAY Be CHANGED
= ssss 49, WI u u SSN.0
ELECT CUSHMAN'S SUCCESSOR
BY POPULAR VOTE.
PIERCE COUNTY IN CONTROL
II Convention System Obtains, as
Law Provides, Representative
Certain to Be Tacoma Man.

Olympia-Attempts are practical
~ certain to be made when the leg
islature reconvenes in special ses-
sion next month to amend the direct
primary law SO that candidates for
the congressional position made va
cant by the death of F. w. Cushman
may be selected by the direct pri-
mary methods.
Under the provisions of the Wash
ington primary law as 1t now stands
candidates to fill out an unexpired
term in Office are exempt from the
workings of the act. and would be
chosen by the old convention system
in the present contingency unless the
legislature revised the law.
The sentiment in favor of chang
ing the law is most general In the
counties outside OF Pierce. where Ia
coma Is located.
Under the convention method, any
conflict among the aspirants for the
nomination in Tacoma would be set
tied In the selection of delegates to
the district convention. Pierce coun-
ty. with its big representation, would
come to the convention united on
one man. The result would be that
the Tacoma candidate would be
practically certain of the nomina-
ton.
Gov. Hay has intimated that he
will do nothing in the matter of call
ing q special session until next No.
vember, anticipating that the legis-
lature may provide the legal ma
chinery for the main election itself

CONFEREES AGREE

MANY CONGRESSMAN GIVE IN
ADHESION TO REVISION.
WILL SLASH RAW MATERIALS
Change Of Sentiment Comes in Sem
ate on Free Raw Materials.
Philippine Cigars Free.

Washington-The tariff bill that
is finally approved by President Taft
will include among other things
these important provisions:
Free hides.
Free ore.
Free coal.
Free OIL
Lumber, probably $1.25 on rough,
with senate rates on finished. This
would be material reduction
throughout the lumber schedule.
For several days members of con-
gress have been going to the White
House, and not few of them came
away convinced that the President
was right in insisting on lower
duties. That a change of sentiment
had taken place in the senate in the
matter of free iron ore and free Oil
is a matter of common gossip about
the capital. Coal at As cents ton,
it is declared, would prove satisfac-
tory to every section, except Wyom-
ing, which fears the importation OF
cheap Canadian coal.
Philippine Cigars Free.
The subcommittee that has been
considering the Philippines free
trade proposition decided to permit
the free admission of $50, OOO,OOO
cigars annually, as requested by the
President, instead of 7O,0OO,OOO as
worIs be admitted under senate
amendment adopted at the instance
of Senator LaFollette.
The tariff cOnferees settled the
question of giving the secretary OF
the treasury authority to issue 3D.
year 3 per cent bonds to cover the
entire cost of the Panama canal. Inc
effect of the bond provision is TO

Neus Notes of
Interest to the
Labor World

There has been a revival of h in
dustrial school idea among organized
labor union men during the last lew
days on account of the report maze
by John Mitchell, at the American
Federation of Labor convention, now III
session at Toronto. Mr.. Mitchell is
chairman of the committee appointed
at the last convention to look into the
advisability of advocating the lnous-
trial school plan in all kinds OF traces
for school boys who have reached the
age to receive instruction in manual
labor. Mr.. Mitchell stated that the
committee, after making a thorough IN
v~estigation, had been convinced that
1t was. a splendid idea, and n that
should have the united support Oh all
la Dor organizations, as it not only gave
boys an opportunity TO go TO schooi'
but also an insight to the traoe ina
appealed to them most.
Among the organizations that nave
already adopted the plan is T~ypographl-
cal Union No. 1913, of this city.
Conditions in the printing trad IN
Newark have been such in the past
few months as to cause an apsoiute
shortage of men, and a recent action OIL
Typographical Union No. l03 a m
creased the number of men engaged IN
the trade in Newark, recent fgures ap-
proximating the increase al o ~
per cent. over the number employed one
ear ago.
Local No. 1O3, of the l. I. o., has
organized a class of boys who meet
every two weeks, who are instructed py
members of the organization on the
different branches of the trade. Inc
work of the local organization is. pelng
watched by other trades unions with
the idea of establishing schools Tor
boys in their business.
In a short time the School Board
will also start the industrial schooi
plan among the older boys In the
schools who may like to learn some
trade. A special committee mas tne
matter in hand, and in a few weeks
win present a plan whereby the boys
will attend school for a certain num-
