URGES STATES TO ENACT
PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARIES
Former Senator Bourne Says There
Is No Need for Awaiting Leg
islation From Congress.

There is no need for the states to
wait for Congress to enact a presidential
primary law said former Senator
Bourne of Oregon yesterday. Mr.. Bourne
originated the presidential primary idea
in 1909 and obtained the adoption of a
law in that state the following year
There are already ten states in the
Union having presidential primary laws
and there Is no reason why other states
should not proceed to enact similar laws,
giving their citizens opportunity. in
party primaries. to express their pref
erence for presidential candidates. In
this way they instruct their delegates
whom to support in the national con-
ventions.
"Of course, I advocate enactment of
a national law for a direct vote on aspir-
ants for party nomination, but I don t
believe that in anticipation of congress
sional action the people of the several
states should abandon efforts for a popu-
lar vote on presidential candidates In
the primaries. State laws can be enacted.
as they have been already. and will be
superseded by the national law when
it becomes effective.
We had popular election of senators
in Oregon and a number Of other states
long before the Federal Constitution was
amended and the country can readily
obtain presidential primaries by follow
ing Oregon's lead. It Is q subject to be
taken up by members OF state legts-
latures as well as by members Of Con-
gress."

empted from tolls ships engaged In our
own coastwise commerce. we might
amend the bill by exempting also all YES
sells of other nations engaged in their
coastwise commerce. This would be
treating all nations alike. Mr.. Gillette
thinks this would accommodate only our
own ships and, therefore, while techni-
cally correct, would result in just what
the objectionable bill gives.
II we are not mistaken, Mr.. Gillette's
simple little expedient would still fur

The Drink Victim

Editor Kennebec Journal:
l enclose editorial from the current
issue of the Saturday evening Post,
and | wish we could make an endless
chain OF it. Sometimes we see the kind
of chap that is known as good fell
low go wrong; the kind that drinks
a little and keeps on practicing until
he drinks whole lot without showing
it very much. BY and by that sort of
chap gets rather proud of the load he
can carry and then his friends notice
it before he does that he is gold brick
ing himself and that he doesn't carry
tho load" nearly as well as he thinks
he does.
Most always these fellows are the
popular men and that means by and
by they really haven't time to attend
to their business. 1t is never much
use to talk to them because they
sour on any friend who is honest
enough to tell the truth. Finally. ii
they happen to come from good fam
lilies they get to the point where, If
they have no father alive. they GO
to their fathers old friends to help
them out. Some recover their equilibri-
UNI, some don't, but it seems pity to
let matters go so far before hating.
1t Is really becoming an economic
problem just as the clipping indicates

Drink Fills Warehouses;

The annual report of the manager

workhouse declares that of the S79s
prisoners received. S412 were addicted
to the use of liquors. In part the re-
port says
Most of the men are alcoholics, pre-
senting, as they do, a wealth of all
ments directly referable to their Excess
sive use of alcohol. Some of these are
border line delirium tremens cases,
while others present marked arterio
sclerosis and cirrnosis of the liver. We
mention these to emphasize the lower
physical resistance these men have
to the common infectious diseases,
such as pneumonia and tuberculosis.
1t Is indeed amazing to note the rap
id progress of these diseases upon this
class of patients. This also accounts
for the seriousness of the ordinary In
fections, such as infected fingers.
scalps. etc The mentality of the men
comes below par.

"Foreclosina Opportunity."

The following was clipped from the
Saturday Evening Post editorial page.
1t was sent to the Journal by FRIEND
who said that he wished we could
make an endless chain of it. See how
it appeals to you:
AS usual when old acquaintance
meet after long interval, the talk
soon turned to companions of other
days; and on that score we compared
notes. This one had grown rich and
famous. That one was fourishing
notably. This other now held at tip
top position-married; three children;
a success. That one was doing very
well. So in running over more than a
score of names and score of years it
seemed that Fortune had been very
kind to the particular bunch of cubs
We were discussing.
Two, it is true had died of natural
causes. One had committed suicide.
Another-well, he was just. keeping
along, with his head slightly above
water, but mostly submerged. And
of the suicide and the failure there
was but one explanation-drink.
1t is not good to lie about drink, and
like everything else in the world
drinking is comparative. Some mems
constitutions will withstand an appall-
ing quantity of alcohol. Some men
can drink pretty hard and pretty
steadily, and yet succeed. Many men
can drink moderately without running
themselves.
1t is true, however, that drink is q
great handicap. Whoever drinks
habitually undertakes TO win in a stiff
race with a hundred pound weight
strapped to his back. Possibly he
can do it; but that is a poor condition
for racing. To drink is to erect a
barrier to opportunity--to set up
hurdles for yourself to jump.
Liquor greases the ways for alr
ether vices. The experienced employ
er hardens his heart against the
young man whose breath smells of
whisky--not because he is sentimental,
or even moral, but because he does
not want handicapped men on his
force crosse

get enough votes" said Speaker
Clark at the Bedford Y NJ. c. A. yes
rerday. And the 1899 others Will
agree with him in the compliment
and the coincidence.
1t is not only necessary to get the
votes, but to get them at the right
time. What triumph there is in be-
ing unanimously chosen by the mass
meetings. vociferousiy elected by the
street crowds, tumultously balloted
for by majority of the convention
(but not a two-thirds matority.) The
men are numerous, If not actually to

by the untrammeled suffrages OF
free and Independent toastmasters
and chairmen of reception commit
tees. And as Speaker Clark would
say, every darn one of them" has
made good President. as far as he
got.
1t is one of the things that make
our political system pleasant to think
about, if you can only take 1t that
way.
