Three clear-cut issues now con-
front this country in our relations
with Japan. Each one must be
met on it's merits. Too often II
would seem that. purposely. they
are being sadly confused. First
the American policy OF Oriental
exclusion, special race laws and
gentlemen's agreements must be
squarely faced If cordial relations
are To continue with our island
neighbors of the Pacific In the
second place. those japanese who
have elected TO make their home
among US and whom We have al
lowed to enter are asking for fair
play against what they claim are
insulting and unjust racial dis
examinations. Lastly. We are ask

which many believe is now TO be
abandoned through Japan's &C
ton in again re-opening the old
policy OF spheres of influence in
China.
Nothing will middle our inter
national relations and good will so
much as TO follow the speCious,
compromising and spineless sug-
gestions of men wso tell us that
we are not helping Japan TO solve

Rather will IL not engender fu-

Is this not straight argument
that one wrong justifies another
and that two wrongs make a
right? Allow Japan a free hand
IN China. and We have paid the
easy price of settlement of our
other problems, No international
difficulties can ever be settled
On this manner. and the ultimate
result will only be 10 make mat

ask, 10 settle these issues separate

SEEKING
REPEAL Of
PRIMARY
Kansas Men Hope Lack Of In
tereSt in Election Will
Boost Chances.

TOPEKA, Kas., Aug. 5.-The Kansas
machine politicians are getting ready
to start war on the Kansas primary.
There is so little interest in the pri-
mary this year that the old crowd Of
politicians who ran things in local and
state politics of both parties up to the
enactment OF the primary law ten
years ago, are opening their fight to
repel the law and restore their old
power
Republicans and Democrats alike
are in this fight and they hope to see
the vote 30 small next Tuesday that
they will be able to persuade the leg
islature that the people Of the state
do not care for the primary law any
longer,
For years the politicians have been
looking for the chance which seems
theirs this year They have denounced
the primary at every turn, but as long
as the voters took an interest in the
political nominations, the politicians
did not dare suggest the repeal.
Little Interest In Primary.
II It we're not for the local contests
for county offices there would not be
enough votes In the primary to make
It worth while counting them. There
is no state issue or policy being fought
out this year.
The primary next week is without
issue or personal contests that will get
out the vote. In former years from
sixty to seventy per cent of the total
vote got out at the primaries, This
year It is doubtful If there will be thir-
" per cent of the total vote cast A
good many voters will not mark their
ballots on the state ticket at all, but
will vote for their friends on the cOun-
ty tickets and possibly vote on the
few congressional scraps and let It go
at that.
1t Is probably true that the contests
for the Republican nominations for
county offices are the hottest that have
been waged for many years. Repub-
licans generally believe the nomina-
ton Of Hughes will make Kansas a
Republican state.
Kansas Candidates Galore.
This has brought out flock Of can
didatcs for every county job in the
state. There are seven candidates for
sheriff In Shawnee county alone, There
are five women candidates for the Re-
publican nomination for county super
intendent in Ness county. There are
many counties In which three to six
men are running for some county Office
and It is only where a Republican is
serving his first term and is n candI-
date for reelection that there Is no
opposition.
II there is a small vote cast on
the state tickets the politicians who
want the primary law repealed will
have this as a lever to prove little In
tcrest in the primary system any more,
II there is a big county vote the poll
tIcians will offer the same old scheme
they offered ten years ago to defeat
the primary law This would provide
that the counties which desired 1t
should have primaries, while other
counties could do as they pleased. But
the state primary would he entirely
abolished and the state officials named
ms the state committee might direct,
