WRITES REPubLlC.
To the Editor OF the Republic.
There seems to be a general belief
in which The Republic concurs in
an editorial In to-day's paper, that
there is no law to authorize a prim-
airy for choice Of a presidential can
didate- by the voters OF a party. In
the statute for primaries claws 1903
section 1854 is as follows: 'The
State committee OF any political par
ty may cali a convention of dele
gates, TO be apportioned, chosen oil
elected in such ann as il may
prescribe, for the purpose of nomin.
ating presidential electors, electing
delegates to national conventions.
electing members Of national com
mittees, adopting or making such de,
~larations of party principles with ref
erenceto national questions ssmay b.
deemed advisable, and to do and tC
perform any other act not prohibitet
by or inconsistent with this article.
claws 1909, p. 4S1.)
And Section $3.50 explicitly place,
the primaries therein authorized 'ul
der the protection of the laws nov
in force as to elections" 'fn the
appointments Of Judges, manner o
conducting elections, penalties. etc
/ have thought all this discussion
about Folk and Clark premature and
impOlitic, as the matter is 30 be def.
initely and eonclusively settled wher
the delegates to the National Conven
ton are selected. And. therefore. .
Is a good suggestion that any prim
airy should be held after the caH O
the National Committee, when dele
gates viii be selected in accordance
with above statute. G. CLAY.
