Postal Primary To Pick
Candidate For President

WASHINGTON, JAN. 24.--Tho
progressive federation has evolved
plan to give the American people
a chance to choose their next presi.
dent.
Under the present system the Am
erican people have a chance to choose
merely between a few candidates
1t would be almost true to say
between but two candidates. The
bosses of the big parties choose two
men for president. One or the other
OF these will be elected. The people
choose between the two.
The progressive federation proposes
to give the people chance not only
finally to elect some candidate
but also to decide what men shall be
candidates.
The plan Is to give all progressive
voters OF both major parties chance
to register their first, second and third
choice for presidential candidate,
while at the same time pledging to
vote only for progressive delegates

vote first, last and all the time for

Mrs. Baisch was injured In 1907,

At the first trial she was awarded
heavy damages against the city, but
a new trial was granted on the

This consisted OF an afidavit from
DR.. Harper to the effect that he had

ITALIANS
Complaining Witnesses, Impelled By
Fear Of Revenge, Almost Invari-
ably Chg Back On Stories When
Accused Come To Trial.
Fresh Example Furnished in Case of
Pair Who Tried To Riddle Coun-
tryman With Bullets.

Police officers and members OF the
prosecuting attorneys stan are CON-
ing TO believe that II Is next to I'M
possible to obtain conviction In
cases where Italians are involved.
Before Police Justice Stein, Tuesday
morning, John Messina occasioned
scme surprise upon the witness stand
by refuting story he had previous
ly told police officers. He was the
complaining witness against Consul
mano Rosario and francesca Ancona,
against whom he had sworn war
rant, charging assault with intent to
do great bodily harm. He said they
had fired seven revolver shots at
him the night of Jan. IA.
When he took the stand, he said
he was .unoble to identify the men
IS those who had shot at him. He
declared that only one or two bull
lets bad been fired, and he though
these had been fired In the air. Pre-
viously, Detective fremont and Pa
troiman Oldani testified that seven
shot had been fired. The officers said
Messina had told them an entirely
different story; that he had been
stopped by the two men, who de.
n,anded money and then fired tu-
silode at him at close range.
The Italian officers say II Is easy to
understand the change of heart exper-
fenced by the complaining Witnesses.
They are impelled by fear to change
their testimony SO that cases cannot
be made out against those lawless
Sicilians, who go about the streets
armed with dangerous weapons at

colony, the newspapers excited the Nd
tives by making .Biack Hand" stories
out of the cases.
II guess the newspapers are not to

ample foundation for what they print.
The court declared he was tired OF
having Italian cases of this character
come into court. He said that some
thing ought to be done to remedy the
evil. He was unable to hold the men
for trial however. He discharged them,
but turned them over to the immigra-

the league today increased their con-
fidence that 1t will be a widespread
popular movement. Personal express
sions as to objects of the league OBJ
tanned from some of the organizers to-
day included the following from Sen
ator Bristow, (Repn. Kas.):
1T is not movement to organize
a third party but for the purpose OF
promoting the things which we de-
clare for. We are in favor of the
legislation outlined, and We intend to
work to bring about the enactment
into law, through the Republican par
ty, OF the principles we set forth.
I'VE believe that the welfare OF
this country requires that the re-
sponsibilities of the government be
placed more directly upon the peo-
pie themselves, and when Office
holders are held to account directly
to the people, they will legislate more
in the peoples interest. That Is the
reason we are going to undertake to
bring about the enactment OF these
laws.
From the national point of view,
the movement to elect delegates to
the national convention at a general
primary and to provide a way for
every citizen to express his choice
for president in that primary, Is i'm
our Judgment of great Importance.
AS 1t Is now delegate goes to the
national convention usually for the
purpose Of getting something for him.

vote, too frequently, for the man Sf6f
president from whom he thinks he
can get the greatest favors. We
think he ought to cast his vote for
the man a majority of the people IN
his district want for president, in
stead of for the fellow who will give
him some office."
