Not Mentioned.
There is absolutely no truth in the
statement published by the twin city
newspapers, to the effect that the Min

ed the present primary law. The law
was never mentioned during the ses-
sions of the annual convention.-Wa-
SEGA Herald.
Fangs Were Drawn.
The resolution was heralded by the
Twin City press as a reputation IT
the primary law. It had been SO de-
signed and had it passed as worded,
instead of having it's fangs drawn, the
statement would have been correct.
AS it is we may regret that any part
of the resolution was included because
OF the intent with which it was origi-
mated. The editors of Minnesota do
not in their association dabbte in pol
itics. It is a business organization
solely. 1t is impossible to resent the
gathering in the house of these con-
ventions of certain type of pothouse
politicians but it is both thoughtless
and dangerous to the editors to lend
themselves to such Vaccinations. A
few more backward looking resolu-
tons and there will be more polite
ians than editors in the association

Where Do We Get OF At?
In our eagerness to secure the
greatest good to the greatest number
which is supposed to be the ultimate
aim we may have over-shot the mark
in the direct primary law but in the
last analysis in government of the
people and by the people where do we
"get off at" unless it is at the pri-
mary? Under the old con-
vention system again there was too
much chance for trading delegates
to accommodate certain interests. The
ideal election system is yet to come.

The resolution passed at the close
Of the Editorial State meeting stirred
up hornets nest among the news
papers Of the State, and the opinion
Of most Of them 10 that the primary
law has come to stay. Here are the
comments that have come to our not
ice, 20 far, in favor, against and in
different. The net result is that the
members Of the legislature will know
that the majority Of the editors do not
want to see them repeal or impair this
law.
Reports Were Misleading.
The Minneapolis Journal and Trib-
une reports of the resolutions passed
by the State Editorial Association are
very misleading and far from the
facts. They came out in bold head
lines that the Minnesota editors had
passed resolutions cOndemning the
primary law, when they had done
nothing of the kind. The resolutions
committee reported at the last min
utes of the last session when there
were but few present and no time to
discuss the resolutions. A vaguely
Worded resolution c0ndemning the in
creasing cost of government was slip
ped through without comment. It is
not understood to have anything to
do with the primary law whatever.
There was an attempt to get a reso-
luton through the committee, con-
demning the primary law, but that
was squelched by Hon. Theodore
Christianson, who was member Of
the committee. The resolutions did
say that the election laws of the state
should be amended SO as to attract
to the service of the commonwealth
men of the highest ability, honor and
integrity, and that public Office should
always be looked upon as public
trust We are all in favor of that, if
it Is possible to bring it about.-St
James Plaindealer.
Has Come to Stay.
Are those who believe the primary
to be the rising sun of cleaner and
better day in politics than the old sys-
tenn obliged to give up their view be-
cause of semi-humorous, semi-ingen-
ious resolution? Not on your life, we
hain't. Lastly, brethren, the people
like the primary. They are not dis
gusted" with it. It gives them more
power, free of bossism. They've got
1t In this state, and In this state they
will never give it up. The law may
be tinkered and very likely improved,
especially the presidential primary
which sailed so smoothly through the
legislature a year ago, but we who
prefer primaries to party conventions
need not worry. The editors united
could not persuade the people that the
primary is danger to "the body poll
tic," and the editors are not united. A
large percentage Of them believe that
the primary is one Of the best things
politically that Minnesota has ever
adopted. Let us put on our shirts

Schemers Take ADVANTAGE,

Though the action of the state edi-
torial association will be Interpreted
to mean hostility to the primary laws,
most of the effect will be lost through
the lack of clarity either of purpose
or of view. The politicians
the demagogues referred to in the as
ISOLATION discussion-are opposed to
the principle of the primary. The
people, as we are disposed to believe.
favor the principle. Many sound rea-
soners who subscribe to the primary
system believe the laws contain faults
which may be and should be eliminat-
ed, but without disturbing the system
itself. Perhaps they are right, but
there is no doubt that the political
schemers have taken advantage of the
situation to attack the fundamentals
OF the primary-Pioneer Press, St.

Result Of Primary.

In summing up what the primary has
done we may say that it has brought
about the deciding of state issues and
the election of state and county officers
on their own merits with the welfare
Of the state as the prime consideration.
Whereas, under the old regime, the
state issues and state offices were used
as pawns in the game of national pol
itics. AS to mediocre men aspiring to
office and the best men refusing to run,
been Changed by the primary: In fact
about the same men are in politics now
as before.-Buffalo Lake News.

A Redeeminq Feature.

Let US add, as a redeeming feature,
to offset the effect of the uncalled-fOr
political resolutions that were passed,
that less than one-fourth Of the papers

these resolutions were pushed through
most Of the percentage that had been
present during the sessions of the two
previous days had gone home.-Bem'

Not Discussed by Editors.

A mistaken impression in regard to
the state editorial association oppos-
ing the primary law, has been given
by the daily papers Of Minneapolis.
Glaring headlines announced this to
their readers but it was not discussed
by the editors, except perhaps the
presidential primary law in private,
and the resolutions adopted would not
allow any deduction against the pri-
mary law.-Mille Laos Times.
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1916-03-08
Knew the Intent.

The resolution speaks very we'll for
itself. The writer was a member IF
the committee that drafted it, and is
quite familiar with the intent of it's
wording. Moreover, he found no one
in the editorial convention, among the
many spoken to in reference to it, who
failed to understand the true import,
intent and meaning of the resolution.

From Another Standpatter.

From Another Standpatter.
The state editors took slap at the
present primary law but failed to rec
0mmend a substitute measure that
will rectify the defects. The
primary law in Minnesota has done
much to retire to private life the bet
ter class of Office seekers and has
foisted upon the people of the state
lot of cheap politicians who seek
to fatten at the trough but return no
value to the state in services.-Bird
Island Union.
And Still Another.
The trouble with the resolution is
that it is not definite. AS it reads
one must conclude that the editors
meant to take a punch at all the laws
governing elections in this state, the
primary law among the rest. =
Better accept the thing as a big joke
for that is just what it amounts to,
and let it go at that, for the primary
system of Minnesota is not worth a
quarrel.-Independen Press, Madison.

Dry weather west of the river has

Texas and Eastern Arkansas having
suffered most from this source. The
southern portion of the central belt
has suffered further hsavy inroads
from the boil weevil, while the east

should. Worst reports come from
Mississippi AID Alabama.
Tennessee, that portion of Missis-
sippi lying north of the weevil-infas St

Memphis district crop the best in the

in the southern districts the move
ment is assuming goodly proportions.
Labor as a rule is plentiful, although
Texas anticipates moderate short
