Plan Repeal of Primary Law

Denver. Aug. 26.-With the acknow-
ledged failure Of assemblies to have
any effect upon the primaries and the
lax interest taken In the primaries,
some Of the political leaders are SER
iously discussing the repeal of the d.
rect primary law by the legislature
next wiAter
In substitution there is a general
belief that the assemblies should be a.
bolished and that the candidates for
all Offices go on by petition, and that
there should be simply one election.
The argument of the leaders is that
with the primaries it compels every
candidate to run twice. 1t costs the
candidate considerable sum to run
in the primaries. and If he wins he
has to put out an even larger amount
in the election. Another objection to
the primaries is that the candidate
cannot fight for the nomination In the

Jennings Bryan's own state has tarn-
ed against him. The issue on which
Bryan was defeated was President
Wilson's appointment of Thomas D.
Jones, dummy" director of the Inter-
national Harvester Company. as presi-
dent Of the new banking and curren-
cy board. Jones was successfully op-
posed by United States Senator Hitch
cock. Nebraska Democrat. The Ne
braska State Convention was coming
on and 1t was greatly important that
the Peerless Leader be indorsed In
his own state, so orders were issued
to Charles Bryan, who always executes
the will of his brother to prevent the
endorsement of Senator Hitchcock in
the Jones matter at all hazards.
Charles Bryan got busy. But after
strenuous efforts, all he could do was
to head off an endorsement Of Hitch
cock at Lincoln. All the other coun-
ties in the state rallied to Hitchcock's
support and in spite of Bryan endor-
sed Hitchcock's successful opposition
to Mr.. Wilson's dummy" director. The
issue was made clear that the en-
dOrsement of Hitchcock was a slap
right in the face for the Wilson ad-
ministration, and 1t looks like Bryan
and the administration took the slap.
The action In Nebraska is REGARDED
of great political importance because
it was the Peerless Leaders state
whose detection led by Bryan at Bal
timore, paved the way for Wilson's
nomination. Nebraska has been divid-
ed in its allegiance between Bryan and
Wilson on the one hand, and Senator
Hitchcock on the other. Hitchcock
supported Champ Clark In view of
the fight that Mr. Clark will make on
Wilson in 1916. developments in Bry-
ans state are regarded as highly sig

mean an increase Of S93, 900 an

were fair and equitable.
It is expected that further confer
