PRESS OF THE STATE UNANIMOUS
IN ADVOCATING THE REPEAL OF
PRESENT PRIMARY ELECTION LAW

Newspapers published in every
part of the state are condemning
the present primary election law The
condemning is being done by both
republican and democratic papers
alike, and all are unanimous in favor
Of the repeal OF the law. AS the
Bonanza was the first paper in the
state TO call attention publicly to
The many deficiencies that now ex-
list in this law. and Of the enormous
expense to be borne by tax payers
and candidates, ii is deemed to be
for the best interests of the tax
payers that the following comments
from the state press are published:
They've Had Enough"
The late primary election has not
only proven unsatisfactory, but ex-
pensive both TO the counties. the
state and the candidate There is
no reason advanced from any source
that has been logical for taxing the
candidates for office. Back
to the convention is the sensible
plan and a number of the legislative
members have already announced
their intention of wiping off the state
slate lot OF useless laws. among
them the present primary law. The
people know when they have enough.
Carson Appeal.
"Far From Satisfactory"
The result Of the amended pri
mary election law as tried ont in this
county on Tuesday last is far from
satisfactory TO the average voter
and II is questionable whether il Is
really worth the tremendous cost tc
the taxpayers of the county.
II is probable that the primary elec
tion cost the state of Nevada al
least $4,000. and the probabilities
are that in every county in the state
where there was hot contest 4
was settled by voters from the oppo
site party All of which goes tC
show that the present primary Law
lacks much of being perfect instru
ment. Ely Record.
