THAT PRIMARY LAW.

Another statement exploited by In
surgent papers in the second district
has been exploded. They charged
the standpatters with being respon-
slbIe for the fact that the primary
law contained no provisions appli-
cable to the condition now prevail
ing in that district, but the records
have been Investigated, and the orl-
ginal copy of the bill introduced by
Gov. Stubs in 1907, has been found,
and 1t contains this clause:
"Thls act shall not apply to spec
tal elections to fill vacancies.
1t has also been proved that iden-
tical provision Is also contained IN
the primary bill introduced by Mr.
Stubs In the session of 1908, SO
that the responsibility rests with the
insurgents and not with the stand
patters. Further investigation I'M
earthed a still richer discovery. The
standpat senate provided in its sub
stitute bill for the Stubs bill that
thereafter the nomination for the
elective state, district and county OF
fices, representatives in congress-
shall be made by means of pri-
mary election" but this provision
was rejected by the insurgent house.

John Kledeae was his name but
that wasn't the hard duck with
which he was afflicted. He was
walking from Manhattan to Wa

by necessity.
1t seems that Mr.. Kledeae had
been working in Omaha and had
lost his Job. He was to meet his
wife and children in Wakeeney and
had reached Manhattan when hard

about enough money to pay his fare
