CLEARING THE WILDERNESS.

CLEARING THE WILDERNESS.
Except some small prairies near its
western edge, all of Indiana, south
and east of the Wabash river, was
once covered with a dense forest of
big, tall trees. And about their roots
grew such thickets of bushes and
vines that 1t was almost impossible
for even an Indian to make his way
through them except where paths had
been broken
Into that primeval wilderness the
pioneer chopped his way. built his
cabin and slowly cleared his fields
with practically but one Implement
the chopping axe. Next into use came
the mattock, or grubbing hoe, and
the common garden hoe. The pillow
was of little use until the mass OF
roots in the ground had partly de-
cayed.
His cabin built, the settler began to
chop down the small trees and bushes
and cut them up and pile them around
the large trees and burn them. This
killed the big trees and let in the sun
shine, and among the trees and the
stumps he planted his patch OF corn.
During the winter with his trusty axe
he chopped down the trees which he

Section 10 of the Primary Law

Indianas new primary law is the result OF
the labor of John R. Jones, Of Plymouth, one OF
the few progressive Democrats in the lower house
of the 1915 legislature. He, with Earl Crawford,
in the 1913 general assembly, were the insur-
gents who baked at Taggart-Cook bossism. Sec
ton 10 has been attacked in the last few weeks
and it's constitutionality is questioned. Repub-
icans charge that it is Democratic attempt to
keep Progressives from voting in Republican
primary. Representative Jones has offered the
following defense:
Most of the criticism of this law is based
upon misconception of it's purpose" said Repre-
sentative Jones. 1T is meant primarily to guar
antee the purity of party primaries. 1t assumes
the primaries must be strictly party affairs, or
otherwise the nominations obtained through
them will not respect the wish and preference of
the bona fide membership of party. What it
seeks particularly to prevent is the voting of one
party's members in another partys primary to
obtain the nomination of weak or unrepresenta-
tive candidates.
"A good deal of talk has gone around about
the law having been drawn to prevent Progress
sives voting at Republican primary, if they in
tend to affiliate with the Republican party I
the law was designed to prevent an inter-
ference of Republicans in a Democratic or Pro-
gressive primary, and vice versa
1.-THE law is meant to restrict the challenging
of primary voters. Only a recognized member
of the party for whose candidates man offers to
vote has the right to challenge. My interpreted
ton is that if Progressive offered to vote at a
Republican primary it would be no business Of
the Democrats whether he did or did not. The
challenge in that case would properly come from
the Republicans, for their nominations, and not
those of the Democrats, would be affected. On
the other hand, if Progressive offered to vote
the Democratic ticket in the primary, the right of
challenge would be restricted to Democrats
II can't see why there should be so much fuss
about this section when precisely similar provi-
sions have been in force in the state since the pri
mary law of 1907 was enacted. That was Re-

METEOR IS seen

CHICAGO, Nov. 26.-Residents of
Chicago who were awake last night
saw a blazing meteor across the sky.
The meteor was described as being
similar to the one that crossed the
heavens in 1860. It rose In the east
and passed slowly across the sky out
of sight in the west leaving a trail of
fire behind 1t. Local astronomers said
today they believed the meteor passed
through the edge of the earths at
mosphere and off into space.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1915-11-26

publican measure. It provided in express terms
that party primaries should be limited to bona
fde members Of the party. The same require
ments were made there that were made here.
That was the intention, l was sure It is simply
a common sense expedient to safeguard the hon.
esty Of primary nominations, and make them
truly representative of the wishes of bona fide
party members"
Sec. 8 Of the law of 1907, defining voters elig-
ible to take part in primary for precinct COM
mitteeman, has been followed literally, with the
exception of few words, by the drafters of Sec.
10 of the 1915 law.
ANY qualified legal voter in such precinct"
says the 1907 law, may challenge any voter or
any person who shall offer to vote at such cleo
ton, and when so challenged such person shall
not be entitled to vote until he has made affidavit
that he is qualified legal voter of the precinct
that at the last preceding general election he af
filiated with the party holding such election !;
that he voted for majority of the regular nomi-
nees Of such party at such election and that he
intends to support and vote for the regular nomi-
nees Of such party at the coming election
Sec. 10 is identical, except that for the words
"holding such election there is substituted the
clause "for whose candidate he proposed to vote
in such primary" which, in the view of the de-
clearness and definiteness.
But, while Sec. 3 of the 1907 law, which con-
fers the right of challenge promiscuously applies
only to precinct committeemens primaries it has
been appropriated bodily in the law of 1915 to
define powers of challenge in nominating pri-
mary. Sec. Is of the law of 1907 is specific in
limiting challenges at nominating primary to
members of the same party for whose candidates
disputed voter offers to cast his ballot. This
section says:
ANY qualified voter of precinct who has
voted or intends to vote in such precinct upon the
ballot Of any political party may challenge any
other person offering to VOTE in such precinct at
such primary, upon the ballot of the same politi-
cal party, and on the ground that such person is
not an adherent to that party"
The section goes on to prescribe the form of
affidavit by which a challenged voter may estab-
fish his qualifications as a legal voter and con-
tinues: IF challenged on the ground that he is
not an adherent to the party upon whose ballot
he intends to vote, such person shall not be en-
titled to vote unless he make an affidavit to the
effect that he voted at the last preceding election
for a majority of the candidates of the party
upon whose ballot he intends to vote at such pri-
mary; or if he did not vote at the last preceding
election, then at the last election at which he
voted, and that such voter so challenged intends
at the election for which the candidates nomi-
mated at such primary to be voted for, to vote
for the candidates nominated by such party at
such primary"
