w. NJ. Fitzpatrick Calls Attention to
Defects in the Primary System,
And the Possibility of Com
binations Under the Same.

The question, Is the Primary law
for the nomination of county officers
sn Improvement over the old conven.
tion plan2 is cne worth considering
from the point of view of the citizen
and voter.
All good citizens have sincerely hoped
1t might be so. One Of the objections
to the primary system in county affairs
arises in strong Republican CT strong
Democratic counties When the county
is strongly Republican, democrats fre
Quently make the nomination of one or
more Of the candidates on the Republi.
can ticket sometimes the Democrats
will vote for Republican at the Pri-
maries because he is a weak man, 30
that they may defeat him at the cleo
tion and elect Democrat to the Office.
And some Democrats in strong Re-
publican counties, knowing that candi
dates on their own ticket are not likely
to be elected go in to help out their
friends ia the Repub ican ranks whose
candidacy they have special ones to
favor. Aud the same conditions may
prevail in strong Democratic counties.
An element in the Republican party
may help make nominations in the
Democratic party for like reasons.
The amendment to the primary law
passed by the last Legislature provides
that the voter must select one out of
the parties on the ballot he will sup
port. And cannot vote for a candidate
of more than one party. This will do
much to prevent the making of nomi-
nations by one party for the other
party, and yet, when the voter has no
faith in or cares nothing about his own
candidate knowing there is no chance
for an election, he may help out some
of the boys on the other side. And we
will have to make further improvement
in the primary system, If we are to
make further improvement in the pri.
mary system, If we are to make it pre-
ferable to or better than the old con-
vention system.
In the nearly twenty years as chair.
man in the Republican county com.
mittee in this county under the conven-
ton plan, was not aware of combine,
tions and the parcelling ont of the
Offices beforshand y II is claimed today
ii this county undst the primary sys'
tenn. And if it is true, as|claimed. tit
all the county and district officers have
been agreed upon and psrcelled out fol
long period IN thefuture. then there
is nothing for the voter to do but ratify
the combination at the polls next fell
Or else to 90 to the primaries and make
their own nominations.
Will it not be best for all Republi
cans to 60 to primaries and make Their
own choice of candidates for the sevsra,
Offices to be filed as best they may
from the names on the ballot. without
regard to arrangements that may have
been made by combinations, as to who
should hold the Offices.
