Novel Ground Of Contest

One OF the grounds on which the con-
stitutionality of the new State primary
law is attacked in the courts is thai.
while under the Constitution a legal
voter, who has attained the age Of
twenty lone years is eligible 10 hold certain
offices, under the provisions of the new
State primary Law he would have TO be
AZ least twenty-five years old before
he could become a candidate for an Of
flee. This novel situation arises from thr
fact that in filling out his nominating
papers the candidate is required to state
his party affiliation and that he sup
ported the nominee of said party at the
proceeding regular election. This, il
is claimed. would prevent person who
had just turned uwenty-one years from
becoming a candidate in the State pri.
mary, because ne could not state that
he had voted for the party nominees al
the previous general election.-Mt. Ster-

made unanimous, and began TO deliver

effect upon the audience that the read

adjourned until S O'Clock this evening
Various explanations might be given
Of the action of the crowd. Probably
the most reasonable is that ii was half
past three and many were hungry.
There is another explanation. however
that is worth presenting for considera-
tion. People will not remain in a large
hall unless they can understand what

speech was written in the language of
Wall Street only two or three hundred
Of the delegates could understand H.

THE SAFE AND SANE FOURTH.

Each year since 1903 The Journal Of
the American Medical Association has
been waging a propaganda against the
insensate manning and death-dealing
methods of celebrating our Independence
holiday. II has gathered and collated
the indubitabie facts; ana the lay press
-.magazines and newspapers-have second
I'd it's endeavors so that an almost rev.
,olutionary change has been taking place.
il Is gratifying to observe that more
and more the constituted authorities
have recognized that it is their duty
to prevent the burning and the cripling
VI children and their death from lock-
Jaw by prohibiting the sale of fireworks
and like destructive agencies. Official
appreciation of this fact is evidenced by
the enactment and enforcement of ap-
propIiate ordinances. Many officials
have in the most salutary way cooperat-
ed with non governor tai agencies interest
cd in the safe and sane Fourth. Legis-
aaron against fireworks has been restric-
tive or prohibitive. The latter, of course
gives the best results.
In European countries occasions akin
to our Independence pay are eommemor-
a&ed by means Of fetes and other pictur-
esque ceremonies, quite adequately just
as heartily and with as anueh patriotic
fevor as among US. Continental peo-
pJes have a genius for festivities. nation.

hoyhood and girthood. things equally
brilliant and satisfactory must be sub
4stitpted for the noise. the flare and the
,vasscoloved flame; and substitutes even
more respondent have been found In
abundance. We have now methods by
which the Fourth shall cease TO be .
