The Primary a Political Humbug.

What humbug talk we are hearing
nowadays, some of which real, sober
and intelligent citizens are believing,
too.
Take this talk about the primary
election law being an effort on the part
of the people to bring the nominating
machinery back to popular control.
Actual events are showing it to be the
most transparent humbug of the day
and hour. In every state, where presi-
Dental primaries have been held, it is
clearly shown that but small fraction
of the voters have attended and re-
corded their vote. Whatever Roose-
welt has won at the state primary he
has done so with about twenty per cent
of the Republican vote. One-fifth of
the voters saying who shall be the can
didate. How is that for a high and
mighty popular verdict? How much
real respect can we feel for such ap-
peals to popular favor and guidance?
In the old days of the caucus system
the cutlery against it was that few
men in every caucus district controlled
the result. Admit it. But there is this
to be said for that system. Those few
men generally selected men of mental
ability. Our legislatures in those days
were fifty per cent higher in real men
tai calibre than they have been since
the primary has taken hold of the work
of selection. We are getting the cheap
est, shallowest, clap-trap stuff there is
in the community as rule to make
our laws with. And why? Simply be-
cause there is no means of passing up
on the fitness of the candidate for the
place he aspires to, as was the case in
the old caucus days. 1t can be fairly
said for that old system that, while it
had its weaknesses, and sometimes
abuses, still there was certain super
vision exercised in every election dis
trict to present men of ability. Now
any blamed fool who opens his mouth
in rant and blather can get there, for
he has no gauntlet to run and only
about one-ffth of the voters turn out
to vote and but majority of that fifth
decide the choice. FIT. Atkinson Union.

AN OIL we'll that is capable of pro-
ducing in one day crude product val
ued at 5000, which is more than the
president of the United States formerly
received as annual salary, is we'll worth
being given leading place in the list
of the worlds natural phenomena. In
the Portrero del Llano field, situated
about 100 miles southeast of Tampico,
is we'll of the gusher type, which is
pronounced by oil experts to be the
largest producer known in the worlds
history of that industry. 1t has dem
onstrated that it is not only capable of
producing 10, 900 barrels of oil for one
day, but that it can keep up that per-
Torrance for an interminable duration;
at least, it kept it up for three months
without the slightest decrease of out
put, and during the period it ran wild
it flooded big scope of country with
the fluid. 1t was tested, after being
throttled down for several months to a
flow of about 35, 900 barrels day, and
the gauge showed that it still retained
it's original output of 10000 barrels
daily.

Rural Carriers to Take Parcels.

On and after July of this year every

begin the delivery of mail parcels here

new parcels post ruling, which has just
been made by the postmaster general.
At present the parcels post will only
affect the rural routes, but should the
experiment prove success in the
country routes the city will be added
later Under the present system all
fourth-class matter, weighing less than
eleven pounds, will be delivered on the
rural routes. The maximum cost for
the delivery of an eleven-pound pack
age will be % cents. There is no diff
ference made in the distance package

this way the rates charged by the ex-
press companies will be much higher
