DEMOCRATS ENTER IT.

& Anti-card-passing petitions circu-
lated for signature by candidates for
nomination before the Shawnee
county primaries on August I. will be
left at the county clerks office dur
ing the balance of this week 20 that
any candidates who have not had m
opportunity to hitch their names to
it may do so either In person or by
letter. This plan. has been approved
by the circulators of the petition aft
err making futile efforts to locate q
few Of the men running for office who
live In the country or are too busy
campaigning to be readily found.
Democratic names have been gath
erred up today as rapidly as were
those Republicans among whom the
original petition was circulated last
week. Approval of the idea Of elm
mating the .card-passing evil from the
coming primary election has been ex-
pressed by candidates and voters with
such entire unanimity a. to Justify the
| prediction. that cards VIII be wholly
absent at voting places. It viii be
the first time in history. Fear OF an
| noying women voters has been the
foundation for the movement.
