full Injuries.

T. F. Hudson, Of the Johnson Elec-
trio Smelling company, who has been
in Hillsboro, ILL.,. has returned to keo-
kuk. Mr.. Hudson was in Hillsboro for
the purpose of making some expert
ments. The rumor that the company
was preparing to locate in Hillsboro in
stead of in keokuk, is without founda-
ton, as Mr.. Hudson has been ordered
back to Keokuk.
Although no definite statements
have been made as to the time when
the company will come to Keokuk TO
start the work here, Mr.. Hudson's re-
turn here is taken by local officials
to mean that the company may start
their buildings here at any time. Mr..
Hudson says that he has had no def
mite advices concerning the matter.
While doing some experimental
work in Hillsboro, Mr. Hudson suffer
ed some painful burns by the explo-
sion of some metal. which was being
poured into a mold. The mold was
an old one and was found to be damp.
The explosion threw the hot mass in
to his face, but fortunately 1t was a
glancing shot and the metal did not
strike his eyes squarely, but burned
him about the face and neck.
Mr. Hudson's burns are healing
nicely and he does not expect the
burn about his eye to give him any
further trouble. His friends here
are glad that he escaped SO luckily.
The experiments were being con-
Quoted for a company in which By
ron e. Eldred of the Johnson concern
is interested.

Presidential Primary Law.

Springfield Mass, Republican:
With 1915 so near at hand, one begins
to question whether the new presiden-
tial primary laws Of the western
states may not be the cause OF as
much conflict over contested DELE
gates in the national republican con
vention as that body experienced at
Chicago in 1912. There are certainly
peculiar features In some OF these
laws, and not one Of them at the time
of its enactment could be regarded as
more than an experiment.
Indiana has q law providing for a
presidential preference vote. But no
ones name can be placed on the prl-
mary ballot as candidate for pres
idential or vice presidential nominal
ton unless an entrance fee OF $loo Is
paid to the commonwealth. The COM
plication that might be caused In the
national convention If it were shown
that the candidate backed by the In
diana delegation had failed to pay his
500 entrance fee in the primary con-
test makes one shudder.
The Indiana law also provides that
the candidate for a presidential nomi-
nation who wins in the state primaries
shall receive the votes of the Indiana
delegates in the national convention
so long as his name is before the
convention. But no rules are laid
down clearly defining the conditions
permitting the withdrawal OF a candi-
dacy; nor does it appear that dele
gate who breaks away from the In
structions Of the state primaries be-
fore the candidates name Is with
drawn shall be punished for crime.
The question arises whether the con.
ditions under which withdrawal takes
place should be defined by a state
law or by the national convention It,
self. If the state defines them there
may be forty-eight different defin1-
, lions. That would make an exciting
national convention rich picking for
learned counsel, but party harmony
might not be promoted.
And this thought is emphasized as
one notes the diversity in the state
primary laws at other points. The
Illinois presidential preference pri-
mary law empowers presidential
candidate to d!savow candidate for
delegate who has declared for him
and to name someone in his place.
This applies. it is understood. both
before and after the primaries IN or
der that the presidential candidate
may safeguard his interests against
all possible deals and treacheries.
Many states remain old fashioned
and still have no presidential prefer
| ence vote provided for by law. The
next national conventions will contain
more curious assortment of dele
gates, seen in the light Of the wonder
| fully varied systems under which they
were chosen, than ever before. A can
didate with Mr.. Roosevelts former
potency could muss them up. by start
ing contests over delegates, no less
effectively and apnallingly than was
the case in the historic convention
which brewed the mischief that ended
at Armageddon. -.',
