Presidential Primaries.

This year the voters in certain
states, in choosing delegates to
represent them in the national con-
vention Of their party, will be able
for the first time not merely to ex-
press their preference for a particu-
lar candidate, but to make that
preference effective. That is the
object Of the movement for Presi.
Dental primaries.
Behind this movement is the
same Of escaping machine rule that
has led to a somewhat general
abandonment Of the convention and
caucus system. Those who ad.
vocate the change contend that the
"bosses" and the political manipu.
lator. by packing caucuses. first
dictate who shall be made dele
gates to the convention, and then
whom the convention Of these
delegates shall nominate.
They declare that the obvious
remedy is direct action by the voter.
They ask why. since the voter
is supposed to know whom he
wishes to have nominated, he should
be compelled to use an elaborate
machinery Of delegates to express
his will, when he can make 1t
known by the simple act Of mark
ing his ballot.
Those who oppose the movement
urge. with at least show Of reason,
that the bosses succeed in packing
caucuses because voters whom they
cannot control do not attend; they
add that the bosses can manage
conventions and dictate nomina.
tions because the very people who
will vote under the direct nomina-
ton system do not attend to their
duty, which plainly Is to choose
delegates who cannot be ruled by
the bosses. What reason. they ask,
Is there to hope that men who
neglect their duty under the old
system will perform It under the

we are going in the wrong direction.
II is certainly worth reflection that
although the chief point against
the system commonly in use is that
the individual citizen does not dis
charge even his present duties. the
modern tendency Is to call on him
for more and more personal atten-
ton to political details; that Is, for
more and more time and effort in
studying the character Of candi.

At the polls.
The present movement Is an ex.

Enderlin, N. D., Aug. 15.--At spe-

the city officials to put in water
works and sewers was strongly COM
mended and the organization pledged
it's fullest support to the council in
it's efforts to make the city bigger
and better and more sanitary.
The action of certain few. who
have opposed the greatly needed inn
provements, was roundly condemned.
They were regarded as antagonizing the
proposed improvements for purely
selfish purposes.
The meeting was very enthusiastic
and largely attended. The citizens,
except an inconsiderapIe minority, are
strongly in favor Of the waterworks

New York, Aug. 15.-Threatened
with death, If they revealed informa-
tion, regarding the three higher up
in the gambling graft scandal, "Brid-
gle" Webber and Harry vallon, two OF
the associates of Bald Jack" Rose,
may prove to be recalcitrant witnesses.
The two prisoners are confronted on
the other hand by possible indictments.
charging them with the murder Of the
gambler, Herman Rosenthal, unless
they tell the whole truth. The two
prisoners tried today to determine
what course they would pursue.
Webber and Vallon have been
reached" and told. according to VAL
Ions counsel, TO throw Police Lieu
tenant Becker to the wolves" but to
shield the names of the three men
now regarded by the states attorney
as directors of the graft system.
District Attorney Whitman Is letting
the two prisoners themselves decide
what attitude they will take.
James M. Sullivan, Valion's lawyer,
says that for some time messengers
from those higher up" and from cer-
tain police inspectors have surreptiti-
ously visited Vallon and webber IN
their cells and told them they might
tell what they pleased about Becker,
put tE they informed on the big fell
lows they might as we'll make away
with themselves as they would meet
death later.
Sullivan said, after seeing Whitman:
Whitman has made case against
Becker and none Of Becker's black
mailing employers seem to care hang
about Becker's situation. In fact, they
have sent word to Rose, Webber and
Vallon to throw Becker to the wolves
but they are determined their own
names shall not be brought out.
Rose will make good, but Webber
and Vallon have been reached and I
am afraid they have made up their
minds to weaken. have told Vallon,
he Is not playing square and that
will not longer act as his counsel"
In the confession OF BALD Jack
Rose as prepared by the gambler for
Whitman and printed this morning,
Rose declares Becker had decided to
kill Rosenthal himself, IL others did
not do the work.
