Some features of the political con-
vention are being freely criticised
and the critics ad locate the abolish
ment of the system. The POSSIBLE
ity that a rich candidate may pay
the expenses of delegates to the con-
vention and thus secure their votes
is held up as an evil of the present
system. OF course no one can de-
fend such a practice. On the other
hand a voter should study the actual
results in states where the direct
primary has been tried. In New
York il cost about dollar for every
vote that was casi in the city pri-
mary. In Massachusetts but a
small fraction of the voters took
part in the nomination of candidates.
1t is said the direct primary is re-
sponsible for the nomination of Gard
ner instead of Benton, who had the
support of the republic organization
But we are now convinced that he
would not have won at a regular
convention. Wherever the primary
has been established the expense of
nominating candidates has been
greatly increased. 1t has not pre-
vented the improper use of money as
shown in the primary in Wisconsin
where Stephenson spent over $780,
900 and his contestant even more.
With two sides so evident the ques-
ton is worthy of very careful study
on the part of every voter.
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1913-10-29

At the next March meeting the
voters of Vermont will have an OPP
portunity to say whether or not they
desire the direct primary in this
state. 1t is only an opportunity to
express their choi.e because no law
has been passed by the legislature
authorizing it, but if the verdict is
in favor of a change in the law it
will be reasonable to expect the leg
islature, in special session, to be
called sometime in the spring, will
enact such law. Inability to de-
termine whether the majority of the
voters desired it was all that prevent
ed the passage of such an act at the
last. regular session. To determine
what the sentiment is a joint resolu-
ton was adopted which authorizes
the secretary of state on or before
February 20, 1914, to furnish the
town clerk in each town with a
sufficient number of ballots so the
voters may have On opportunity to
questions: First, do they favor a pre-
ferential primary system whereby the
voters may instruct their delegates
to political convention as to their
preference for candidates for Office?
Second, do they favor a direct pri-
mary law under which the voters
shall cast their ballots directly for
the candidates rather than the pres
ent system of nominating candidates
for state, congressional and county
Offices?
There can be no criticism of this
act as every voters is given the OPP
portunity to say what he prefers.
With this question to be decided
people should begin a study of the
direct primary and what it involves.

The suggestion is made that the
school department in this village
arrange for popular lectures, to be
given weekly to school children and
parents and the trustees of the
Academy used for this purpose with
ness TO have the auditorium in the
Academy used for this purpose with
out expense. The object is to pro-
vide entertainments pupils of the
public schools may attend in the
evening with their parents and to
present to them subjects that will
stimulate them to read and keep
them off the streets at night. There
is a large amount of material avail
able for such purpose and if you
would like entertainments of this ma
ture speak to the school authorities
about it.
