ANOTHER SCALP FOR THE PR1M-
AIRY.

E-a .H.H-
There are certain to be some I'M
Projections in every election system,
and It is possible there will always
be some who will be dissatisfied with
tho primary. But it has produced
SO many sanitary results in cleaning
out the public Offices that its useful
ness Is not in question With any good
citizen. Tho latest. example OF its
salntary eject on politics is the
announcement by Guggenheim, who
bought a seat in the Senate from
Colorado. that he Will not be a can
didate to succeed himself. The rea-
|son Is that Colorado, which has been
|plundered and exploited by the cor
porations more shamelessly, per-
haps, than any other state In the
west, has, like California, at last ris-
on In reyols and established a pri-
mary election system. Now that
|Guggenhclm cannot be reelected
without running the gauntlet OF a
popular vote, he recognizes that
there Is only one thing he can do
and, that Is to retire. Men like Gug-
genheim represent about everything
that the people do not want In pub
lie Office. We cannot have popular
government unless we give the peo-
pie q chance to keep them from pub
lie places. Therefore the primary
system has demonstrated that it is
q necessity.
We often hear the charge against
1t that 1t. takes too much money to
carry q primary. This Is true and It
Is not true. II a. candidates WORTH
ness Of the Office he seeks Is In cues
tion, then IL, surely will take a lot
OF money to elect him. Wisconsin
has given the best illustration of
that. Stephenson spent something
like 100000 to carry a primary cleo
ton there, while LaFollette, who is
practically penniless. carried the
state by an overwhelming vote in the
next primary, and against q tremen-
dous "slush fund.- raised by his enc
mics. II any candidate for public off,
ce has fully demonstrated to the peo-
ple that he is their representative
and that he will not finch or fee in
time OF battle. he car carry any pri-
mary in any state without a cam
paign fund, against any unworthy
candidate who has unlimited corrup-
ton money. To indict tho primary
is to indict the people. To say that
the primary permits the purchase Of
public Office is to say that the voters
are given to the sale Of public Of
Ace. And II the electorate itself is
corrupt, then is the government going
to be purified by taking away their
voice md giving the control to self
schemers?
The Republican believes with i'm
plicit faith in the good sense and In
tegrity Of the average American vot-

Smoky EchIii.

One of the smokiest places on earth is undoubtedly Achill, of the coast of Mayo. Ireland. says Harper's Weekly. A smoky atmosphere is not an un- known thing in any Irish cabin. but in Achill the greater the smoke the higher the satisfaction of the natives. for these smoke means potatoes. and potatoes mean food
 It is to one of the methods Of pro curing soot that the islander owes the smoky condition of his cabin Soot he must have. or the potatoes will not grow. In the tiled fields he erects little huts called "scraw- hogues." formed by the 'sc-aws" Or sods of heather from the mountains Within these huts he keeps a fire of peat burning for six weeks or two months. at the end of which period the scraws are, from their continual impregnation with smoke, trans formed into scot.
 Turf or peat is abundant on the island, and the largest fires cost noth- ing.

How is this for a button game?" said the man who markets. On my way home with basket of provisions met man who buttonholed me with an interesting political story.

For about ten minutes the dog and l spared for possession of that basket. Then the door was opened suddenly from with in, red-headed woman took up ny basket with one hand, patted the dog with the other hand said. 'GCCd old boy, aint ims? and shut the door

Rudeness Properly Rebuked.

A young man sitting in a subway car in New York, with legs crossed and one foot, showing a highly polished shoe and slk sock. extended so far into the aisle as to make it almost i'm possible for people to pass without coming in contact with the obtruding member, was brought to sense of his disregard for others by three young women who sat opposite. One said: 'I wonder if he is showing his foot or his shoe?" The second said loud enough to be heard above the car clat. ter and to the amusement of others: 'I think he wants to show his clock. ed socks-watch it." ''No." said the third. he's only showing his bad. manners" The foot came down and was lost in the crowd which got ofi at the next station.
