WATSON.CHILTOD
BOSS COMBINE
Unwilling to Fight Direct Primary
Law Attack Call for the
Extra Session.

West Virginia Legislature in extra
ordinary session for the purpose OF
considering primary law, was Is.
sued from the Capitol on the 18th
day Of April, and in the effort to
hide their real opposition to a prI-
mary law which would have requir-
ed Senator c. w. watson to SUBMIT
his candidacy for re-electson 70 the
voters of the state. the chilton-wat-
son combine attacked the calling OF
the special session, arguing that
there was no occasion for the as
sembling OF the Legislature.
Unwilling to combat the Governor
with open opposition to the primary
law which he was advocating the two
United States Senators with their
newspapers, proclaimed that the
Governor had transcribed his au-
thority in calling the special session
1t was purely an effort to deceive the
voters and befuddie the public mind
and served as an excuse for some OF
the controlled members OF the Leg
islature to fight the enactment OF
direct primary law.
The course of many OF the leading
Democrats of the state who were not
under the control of Watson and
Chiffon in advising the calling OF the
extra session and insisting upon the
Democratic Legislature redeeming
the platform pledge of 1908. showed
conclusively that the bitter OPPOSE
ton to the primary law, led by Sem
ators Watson and Chiffon, sprung
from selfish motives and that sena-
tor Watson was to be the beneficiary
of the defeat of primary law.
Those able Democrats who en-
dorsed the action of the Governor in
calling the special session of the
Legislature, and there were hum
dreds of them. did not believe that
the men whom the Democratic party
mad sent to the Legislature, would so
far forget their devotion to party
and their platform pledges, in their
blind subseryiency to the senatorial
to repudiate a pledge
of the party that promised the peo-
pie the right to nominate their own
for public office.
Among those who advised the
Governor to call the extra session
Of the Legislature was Hon. John 7.
McGraw, of Grafton, Democratic Ma
tional Committeeman from West
Virginia, a loyal Democrat who for
twenty years had been recognized as
the state leader Of his party. In 6

THE CAMPBELL. COOPER
BILL
Passed by House of Delegates In
January by Overwhelming
Vote, Was Rejected by
Same Body in May.

One fact was prominent at the
special session Of the Legislature. II
was the complete surrender Of a ma.
jority of the House of Delegates tc
the dictation OF the Democratic sen.
atorial machine. To make this alb,
iect surrender to the Watson-Chil.
ton alliance ii was necessary for the
House of Delegates to repudiate Its
own action and when the time came
it did SO with the belief that the
people were not watching the ma
neuvers.
At the regular session of the West
Virginia Legislature, three months
before. several primary bills were
introduced and considered. Upon
one of these proposed laws favorable
action was taken by the House OF
Delegates. 1t was the Campbell bill,
modelled after the Oregon and Wis
consin laws and adapted to condi-
tions in west Virginia. 1t was very
similar to the Cooper bill which had
twice met with favorable action in
the Lower House of the Legislature.
The author OF the bill was Demo-
crat-Judge c. W. Campbell, of
Cabell county.
The House OF Delegates after
careful consideration of the Camp
bell bill, passed the measure by a
vote OF II to 5. 1t was the almost
unanimous action of the House in
voting for primary legislation that
actuated the Governor in calling the
special session OF the Legislature.
He believed the House was sincere.
II 1t had shown disposition to op-
pose primary legislation 1t is safe
to say the Governor would not have
called the extraordinary session.
But IT passed the Campbell bill
without mutllation and went on rec
ord as favoring direct primary law
OF unquestioned merit.
The Campbell bill came before the
House of Delegates on February l.,
1911, when it was reported back
from the House Committee on Ju-
dietary, as House Bill No. 80, with
the recommendation that it do pass.
The following day it was taken up,
read a first time and ordered to its

berry it was the duty OF the Legisla
ture to declare that seat vacant. The
motion of Senator Grimes to exps-
dite the hearing did not prevail.
February It'll came and passed In
to history and Senator McIntire did
not attempt to call up House Joint
Resolution No. 10.
On the following day, Senator D.
B. Smith, OF cabell county. moved
that House Joint Resolution No. 10
be taken up for immediate consider
alton. Senator Mc1ntire then moved
to table the resolution.
The Republican members Of the
State Senate objected strenuously to
tabling the resolution, but on the
voluntary statement made by sena-
tor W. C. Peterkin that the resolu
ton would be called up at a later
date, and that II no one else made
the motion he would do 1t himself,
upon that understanding the resorU-
ton was tabled. Senator Peterkin
sat silent throughout the whole ses-
sion and did not make the least eff
fort to have the resolution brought
before the Senate for consideration.
1t was the most shameful exhibi-
ton of cowardice in the States his.
tory. Senator Peterkin may live
long, but he will never be able to
explain to the people of the State
why he deliberately promised to call
up the investigation resolution and
then betrayed his promise to the
people of West Virginia.
The perfidy of Peterkin. in his be-
trayal OF his promise, was only sur.
passed by the Vaccinations Of
Woods, McIntire and MacCorkle, in
their extreme efforts 10 prevent the
investigation.

mine. But in no event should any
primary be held except under state
or county officers and under the
State laws governing elections, and
all regular primaries of all parties
should be held on the same date, tx
ed by statute
And the Democratic party meet
ing in convention in the same city,
and only few weeks thereafter, re-
fiected the sentiment of a vast ma
jority Of the voters of that party in
this State in these words:
We believe that all nominations
for public office. State and local,
should be made by general primary
election and pledge ourselves to the
enactment and enforcement of such
a law
Every member OF the Legislature
belongs to one or the other OF these
two great parties. and is therefore
committed and pledged by his party
to vote for a law that will give to
the people of the State the same
privilege to express their preference
for nominations that they now have
for recording their choice of candi-
dates for Office at the general cleo
ton. In this law l hope that you
will carefully safeguard the right
of the voter by providing proper
penalties for violations thereof. A
candidate who uses corrupt meth.
DDS to obtain a nomination should
not be declared nominee, and II
the violation is not known until al
ter his election then he should for
felt his office. No man should be
permitted to hold an office when his
certificate of election is tainted WITH
fraud or corruption, and every voter
who knowingly and ilfully violates
the election laws, should be dis.
franchised.
a believe nm somewhat familiar
with the sentiment OF the people Of
this state in relation to primary
election law, and because of this
knowledge confidently expect the
enactment by this Legislature OF Q
law that will meet with popular ap-
! prevail"
The regular session OF the West
Virginia legislature adjourned sine
die at Z o'clock on the morning OF
February 25, 1911. That afternoon
Governor Glasscock announced his
disappointment at the failure OF the
Legislature to enact primary cleo
ton law and announced then that
he would re-assemble the Legisla-
ture in special session within few
weeks to consider primary legisla-
ton. Only i'll health prevented the
iGovernor from calling the special
session at the end of the regular
session.

EARLY Sentiment
FOR PRIMARIES
Such Legislation Recommended by
Three Goyernors-Glasscock
Forced the Issue.

One of the arguments used by the
supporters of the Chilton-Watson al
lance in opposition to the anact-
ment OF direct primary law at the
special session OF the Legislature,
was that the call for the extra SEES
sion had been Matched in the night
by Governor Glasscock and former
Governor VIM. NJ. o. Dawson, and
that the Legislature was unprepar-
ed to enact such legislation with due
consideration. y
In the Gilkeson resolution, which
sought to defer primary legislation
for two years, the author, Henry Gil
keson, of Hampshire county, set out
in several preambles, the reasons for
which the Chilton-Watson combine
desired to have the enactment of a
primary bill postponed by the ap-
pointment OF commission to draft
law for presentation to the Legis-
lature of 1918.
The Democratic statement that
the Legislature was unprepared to
enact direct primary law at the
special session, might serve as an
excuse but not as a reason, as was
stated before a direct primary law
was not an innovation, for it had
been discussed for eight years, three
governors of West Virginia had rec
commended such legislation, but 1t
remained for Governor VIM. E.
Glasscock to force the legislation to
an issue by assembling the Legisla-
ture in special session to consider
this one subject alone.
In fact the subject of direct pri-
maries for the nomination of all
candidates for public Office has been
before the people OF West Virginia
since 1908, when Senator Harvey
w. Hammer, then n member OF the
State Senate, was a patron OF such
a measure in the Senate. 1t has
been constantly agitated since that
time but not until last year
when Governor Glasscock called an
extra session, was the Legislature
compelled to consider the question.
Governor Albert B. White took
determined stand for the enactment
of primary legislation. On January
II, 1905, Governor White trans
mitted to the Legislature his second
biennial message and in that docu-
ment, he recommends the enactment
of a direct primary law in the fol-
lowing words:
Governor White on Primary Law.
1.-THE time has come when we
should have a general law regula-
ting the nomination of candidates
for public Office by direct vote. At
the session OF the Legislature OF
1903, Senator Harmer offered SEN
ate Bill No. sc, printed on page 1S7
Of the Senate Bills. That bill, which
was drawn with considerable care,
used as a model the Wisconsin law
which was passed by that legislature
and approved by the people to whom
1t was referred, by a large vote, last
fall. This bill is on the general lines
of such a measure as many think
we ought to have on our statute
books for nominating public ofTici-
ais. All should agree that there
should be law governing primary
