OLD CAUCUS SYSTEM IS
SUBTLE AND TREACHEROUS
Senator Borah Cites Senator
Stephenson's Case and De-
tends Primary System.

WASHINGTON, March 26.-Assert-
ing that mo more vicious, PREACHER
Gus, subtle. venal influence ever oper-
ated to the detriment of the people"
than the old caucus system, and force
fully defending the primary system,
Senator Borah, OF Idaho, today told
the senate what he thought were the
lessons OF the election of Senator
Isaac Stephenson.
Our friends who are opposed to
tho primary" said Borah, have taken
this opportunity TO assail the primary
system. With an excess OF pleasure
they point how il fails to, what no one
ever contended 1t would do, make all
candidates decent and all men hon
est.
Our friends exclaim in unrestrain-
ed derision that Notwithstanding your
primary law corruption still-omitting
to state the most important fact that
though IL still lives II stands exposed.
Corruption cannot live under the pri-
mary system II men have the courage,
as they will, TO punish those who
stand exposed
"A primary system. with a corrupt
practice act, will make ii impossible
TO control our elections by the use Of
money.
Senator Stephenson could have put
"a million into a caucus and brought
his purchased parchment here and the
chances are one in ten thousand IL
would have never been known-and
unknown we would In our ignorance
have called the hideous cancer eating
away at the vitals OF the nation
health.
But he put in hundred thousand
dollars and even without a corrupt
practice act and with an attempt to
destroy original memoranda the ex-
posture Is nevertheless complete and
the only thing now left to be deter
mined is the judgment OF the senate.
IF man represents money In the
race It will cost money to run. II he
has nothing to give the people but
money then money he must give them.
If man deals In ideas and issues in
stead OF patronage and checks, he will
win over all the money you can put
into the fight.
"One OF the very things for which
I hold Senator Stephenson responsible
in the campaign Is that he entered the
race with his pocketbook for his plat
form. He says himself that after he
turned his financial agents loose
without limit as to the amount or as
to the use, he seldom went near head.
quarters and met the people in no
public gatherings. His opponents
made the mistake OF permitting him
to name the weapons and fix the rules
of the game and he defeated them.
Nothing has been taken away nm
der the primary system except the
power OF the caucus. II II were true
that our political parties could not
stand the light OF publicity. they
would shortly die and the country
would rejoice at their going"

Premier Asquits Refuses To Ac-

and Put Them In Bill

LONDON, March 26.-Following an
other futile conference between the
union committee and the representa-.
tiyes OF the mine operators, one OF
the leading owners indicated that
there was no hope OF settlement.
We've chucked it," he said, as he
left the conference in disgust. Other
members of the conference expressed
hopeless sentiments. The rock on
which they split was the five-sniliIng
minimum and two shillings for boys
which the owners insist under no car
cumstances will be conceded.
The hopelessness of the situation
was further emphasized in the house
of commons few minutes later when
Premier Asquith announced that the
government would not accept the mill
imum figures demanded by the min
ers and insert them In the bill. Great
pressure had been brought TO haze
the government make this concession
and the final refusal by the premier
was accepted by everybody as mean

their employers will be continued TO

In this section next season comnise

such strong protest that If George
Town farmers wish to sell their crops
this year they viii be compelled TO
mark their names on each crate or
basket Of fruit sent from here.
Fruit buyers in the town have agreed
TO buy no fruit that was not properly

to stop the shipping Of inferior fruit
a practice that has made Sussex coun-
ty fruit heretofore regarded with sus-
plcion by New York and Philadelphia

A few years ago the examination of
several baskets OF peaches shipped
from Georgetown disclosed stovopipe
placed in the baskets, with fruit piled
around, so that the basket only really
contained about half the propor
amount All sorts Of tricks have been
tried, with inferior fruit on the bot
tom, and by slipping In a few inferior
crates Of berries I'm carloatd lots. The
protest has now become 80 strong that
local buyers sec plainly unless the
cheating is stopped Georgetown will
be ruined as market. and i'm order
to stop IL every farmer will be COM
PEELED 10 mark his goods with his
name. and If inferior goods are then
found. the buyer can mark the man
from his list and none of his fruit will

The ruling is being received with
pleasure by the better class Of farm

Chicago. Aug. Yesterday all rules were suspended and both Theo Roosevelt, for president, and Hiram Johnson for vice-president, were unanimously chosen to lead the fight for progressives. The nomin- alton was made by exclamation and was followed by tremendous rejoic- ing and demonstrations of delight.
 The Progressive convention voted to leave off the prefix National to the party name and adopt that of Progressive" this was also chosen unanimously and the chris tening was registered as such. The candidates have both been notified of the action of the convention and have. signified their acceptance of the honor and promise an earnest support of the progressive prin- ciples. One of the remarkable fea- lures Of the convention was the methods used in conducting the meeting, no ballot nor a roll call was used. It was spontaneous gathering of the people who were willing to take any place in the ranks so that the principles might win. The platform adopted was similar to the speech made by Mir, Roosevelt. On the Alaskan ques- ton, 1t says:
 We promise the people of Al- aska the same measure of self government that has been given the people of other American territories, and that every federal official shall be appointed from the bona fide residents.
 Senator Joseph NJ. Dixon of Mon- taua was chosen chairman of the National Progressive committee.
