Direct Primaries.

The nominations Of party candidate.
for the election in Colorado next fall
will be made under TIL direct primary
law and every voter will have chance
to vote directly for his or her choice OF
Candidates.
1t is just as important that every vo-
ter cast his or her ballot at the primary
for the nomination Of candidates as il
is that every voter votes on election
day for if the nominations of the par.
ties are not what they should be, then
the result of the election will not be
what it should Have been.
There has for some time been much
criticism passed upon the convention
system of nominating candidates. 1t
has been claimed that the conventions
were very largely controlled by party
bosses or the party machine. When
ever this criticism could be justly APP
pied to the convention system, it was
when the voters of the party failed to
attend and vote at the caucusss and
primaries for the selection of delegates
TO the county conventions and, if the
voters of the political parties are as
careless about attending and voting at
the direct primaries for nomination as
they have been in voting for delega es
the present direct primary system viii
prove to be very little. if any better

Provo himself had been. at the end of

were arrested and charged with the crime
In which a third man with a red beard

posed to have been concerned. Richard
accuses his brother Of being the murderer.
while CASTOR. in return blames the crime
on Richard. But what Is startling the
police and public is the fact that about
900 worth Of jewels belonging to Provo
having been discovered in two places
where CASTOR had stated they were con-
cealed by Richard. There was found a
big brown diamond of n kind Provo

PRINCESS MARY
ORDERS WARDROBE
special c.b,. to The w..hinr,ou Her,M

Special Cabe to The Washington Herald.
London. Nov. As Queen Mary feared
when she took her daughter. Princess
Mary. with her on her trip to Germany.
the voyage became the turning point in
that young lady's life. Hitherto treated
like a mere child. the princes was In the
habit OF meekly submitting TO her moth
er's old-fa shioned wishes In every way.
but the talks she had first with the old
Grand Duchess of Strelitz. her mothers
aunt. and afterward with the Kaisers
daughter. Princess Louise and the crown
princess Of Germany. gave her the cour-
age to rebel against her mother. Some
very violent scenes are said to have oc-
Cured when Mary informed her mother
that she was no losger a child and In
the future wanted to select her own
dresses. The princess won and just now
she has given her first order for dresses
made according to her own taste. which
is very much different from the queens.
One Of the Princess Mary's first acts after
she had ordered her first gown and
selected material and cut for herself was
to write a long letter to her grandmother.
Queen Alexandra in Denmark. whose IA
vorite she has always been. and who has
often championed her cause with her
mother.
Among the court dressmakers the vic
tory Of Princess Mary has been hailed
with delight. for they have heretofore
had only very lean accounts to make out
during the present reign. while the long
has made Princess Mary quite
reckless. and almost extravagant. The
number Of toilettes she has already or
dered 10 enough to keep the dressmakers
busy for the next two months.
