THE JOHNSON IMPUDENCE

n seems incredible that Governor
Johnson should, in the East, be object
ing TO the bad election systems that he
finds IN various Of the States: for sure.
ly nothing quite so bad has been
developed in any State as is shown in
his own State of California, where the
laws, as interpreted by the Supreme
Court of that State while the court de-
nounccs those laws. disfranchise a
large portion of the electorate of that
State in their right TO vote for Presi.
dent Of the United States.
johnson 5 most recent criticism Of
election laws was his denunciation Of
the election laws of Pennsylvania,
Those laws are pretty bad, undoubted-
". since they might have allowed Of
substantially the same evil result as
has been reached in California, John
son 5 own State But in Peunsyl.
vania. in spite of the bad laws, there
has been an honest settlement reached
whereby tho Progressive ticket runs on
its own merits. and does not usurp a
position not its own, nor undertake
TO disfranrhisc the Republican voters
of that State Perhaps il was this that
induced johnson to make his complaint.
He doubtless desired TO have the Pro-
gressivcs in Pennsylvania disfranchlse
the Republicans in that State Just as
under his leadership and advice the Re-
pubicans have been disfranchised in
California Referring 20 the impudence
Of the johnson criticism Of tho Pennsyl-
vsnis laws, the Philadelphia Record,
whilc admitting the badness OF its
State election laws. does not consider
that Governor Johnson is a man who
il entitled TO criticise them. The
Record puts its retort upon Governor
Johnson in the following teTse words:
This Is the gentleman who claims the
credit for that remarkable California
primary law under which the Rcpubli-
can candidates FOR electors are denied a
place on the Presidential ticket and thou
sands ol men who wish TO vote Tor Presl-
dent TIlt arc practically dcbarred from
doing SO, because OF tie difficulties in

and well deserved. Surely IL takes an
immensity of cheek for Governor John

him, and then Dawson took hand. The
prisoner bested them in the prehminaries.
