In the cases of two offices on the mon
partisan ballots" at the primary on We'd
nesday, the two candidates whose names
we're printed on the ballots would both
be nominated no matter how many votes
they received. This was true of both
the judicial and the county superinten.
dent ballots. As there we're three names
for the state superintendency. the result
of the vote will eliminate one of the can
didates.

Many years ago in San Francisco
here was bookseller who had an in
innate knowledge Of fiction prices. but
who was all astray when it came to
general literature or scientific works
A customer having selected volume
would ask the price and. without SO
much as bothering to look at the title.
If he saw that it was not novel.
the seller would roughly weigh it on
his hand and name the sum. Many a
bargain was picked up in that way.
but as the bookseller also bought on
the same principle. he never lost any
thing to speak of.-San Francisco

are therefore Of no public interest.

Then again, public sentiment 10 .

to 60 in droves. Just why people do
this is = sort Of psychological mystery
that nobody has yet been able to solve.
Carried to extremes it makes mobs and
even revolutions. Start . dozen persons
running down q city street, all howl.
ing something or other at tho topg OF
their voices and the chsaces are that in
a few minutes the dozen has increased
to hundred and more. In moro qaiet

liticaa sentiment is 10 exception. it also
runs in droves. 4
In tho present June primary, We think
it saie to say. that except for few bt.7
foes and . few candidates, the average
vster has not made up his mind definte-
~ tor all Of whom he viii vote before he
eaters tho booth to mark his ticket.
We think the average voter generally
has some preooaceived ideas on the can.
didate for u. s. senator, for governor,
for representative TO congress, and in .
general way At least for some Of the
county officers. But the vast majority
know almost nothing of the candidates

not be expected to know. - q
We doubt il there are . half dozen.
men in this state that can write dowa;
the names Of all the candidates Of theef
own party for the state Offices. We
doubt il there are half dozen men Il
this county that can write off all the
names OF either the republican or dene.
cratic candidates for county Offices. ;
The average candidate in making his
calls on the voters has to tell the average
voter whom he ,ls interviewing, who be
>is and what be 'is running for-and has
to add to that who is running against
him for the same Office.
And with all the contingencies implied
10y the above we think we elect officers
and We think we govern the country
instead of luck doing it.
Happily, luck does the job just about
as we'll as we would do it ourselves-and
the country goes on just the same.
sOf course there are times when there
'is specially hot fight over certain can
'didates, or even over certain public
Issues. in which the public become con.
,siderably interested, but these are OK.

This however does not argue that the

more nearly concerned him and his per-
sonal interests. In this Ills partly
right and partly wrong. But in most
cases, he depends on his newspaper, or
the personal persuasioos of another per-

luck, and the primary law has not made
it otherwise.

FANS MUST HELP
FINANCE TEAM

While the committee appointed by
President Lanier of the Americas Base
ball association met with pretty good
success in their canvass to secure
fund for the 1914 ball club yesterday
the amount that they secured in
pledges is several hundred dollars
shy of the sum that it will take to fl

The committee has decided to work
again this morning in order to see as
many of the fans as possible. The list
that they are asking the bugs to sign
calls for the money to be paid in at
times suitable to the donor during the
season. It also provides for payments
to be divided up, if preferable.

w. P. Blackwood, representative IF
Charlie Somers, owner Of the Clave-
land Maps, will arrive in Americas to-
night at 1880 to look over the local
ground with a view of selecting Amer
icus as training camp He will be
the guest Of the local baseball direc-
tors while here and every effort 70
make his stay pleasant and profitable
for Americas will be made.
President Lanier, of the local asso-
citation, received telegram from the
Cleveland mogul yesterday morning
telling him that Blackwood would paw
Americas a visit and that his decision
as to whether Americus would do for
a training camp would be final.
The fans of Americas are confident
that in many ways Americas can offer
advantages that few cities of her size
can boast of. The fact that her ball
park is located so close to the heart
of the city is one of her strongest ar
guments The hotel facilities that
Americas has to offer are unexcelled,
and the climate is ideal for spring
workouts.
While the ball park at present is in
bad shape, with a few days sunshine
the corp of workmen that the city has
promised to turn over to the manage
ment will have the diamond and out
field in tip-top shape. The directors
are planning to put the park in first
class condition whether the big
leaguers come or not.
