THE PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY

The Minnesota direct presidential
primary law will be given its tlrst
trial Tuesday, March IA, at which
time the voters will be asked to elect
delegates at large and district dele
gates to the national conventions OF
the various political parties.
No doubt the enactors OF the law
were actuated by patriotic motives
but from present indications the re-
suits achieved will be even more un-
satisfactory than under other proV,s-
ions of the primary law governing the
naming of candidates direct.
The attorney general has ruled that
the same rules governing a general
election will apply at the Presidential
primary, except that no registration
is required. The election will be held
at the usual voting places. The polls
will be open in cities at 6 a. M, ana IN
towns and villages at 9 a. m. Polls
will be open in every voting precinct
in the state and will close at 9 p. m.
There will be ballot for every po-
litical party. There are four dele
gates at large to elect and two from
each Congressional district.
Three names have been filed for Re
nublican candidates-Senator Albert
B. Cummins, of Iowa, Henry Esta-
brook of New York and VIM. Grant
Webster.
No one seems to know very much
about either EstabroOk or webster.
Senator Cummins is a sanely Progress
sive republican, and senior senator
from Iowa.
Woodrow Wilson is the only Demo-
cratic candidate. Eugene N. FOss
and William Sulzer are the prohi6l-
ton candidates.
1t is quite generally conceded that
Senator Cummings will receive the
Minnesota Endorsement. The Herald
understands that the intent of the law
is for the delegates to remain loyal to
the candidate receiving the indorse-
ment as long as there is a probable
ity that he may be nominated. After
that they can vote for whoever they
desire.
The contest in Democratic circles is
really to ascertain whether or not
Fred B. Lynch shall continue to be ma
tional committeeman from this state,
continuing the distributions OF the
loaves and fishes to the hungry office
seekers.
The people are apparently taking
but little interest in the Presidential
primary, and unless enthusiasm IS
boosted in the remaining few days 1t
is doubtful if 20 per cent of the vote
of the rural districts will be polled.-

Sixth DISTRICT REPUBLICAN
DELEGATES.

Several good men have filed as
Cummings candidates for district del
egates to the Republican national con-
vention from the Sixth Congressional
district. Stearns and Todd counties
offer two admirable candidates for
these places in George Hanscom of ST..
Cloud, and Peter o. Scow, clerk Of
court of Todd county. Both are high
grade citizens of Minnesota, thor
oughly regular in their party fealty,
and supporters of the candidacy of
Senator Albert B. Cummings of Iowa.
The Herald urges the Republicans of
this section to vote for both Messrs.
Hanscom and Scow.-A. NJ w.

"Good Catholics, during Lent will
abstain from all public and noisy

LOOKS LIKE A DOUBLE CROSS
FOR DANIEL.

The appointment of Dan Law
Ter as ambassador to Chile has
gone glimmering, by the way.
The President has appointed an
Indiana man, and once more Fred
B. Lynch has failed to land his
choice for a big federal plum. The
Lynch recommendation of Law
Ter for the Chile post preceded
the reconciliation of the two men,
but now the tempting plum tree
turns out to be merely Dead
sea apple.-Minneapolis Journal.
From the above it would appear
that when Daniel was taken to the
political mountain top and permitted
to gaze at the glories beyond, as
pointed out by Fred B. Lynch, JUS
prior to the recent Democratic con
ference, that his desire for politica
glorifiication somewhat blurred Mr.
LAWYERS perspective. When Dal
wakes up there is apt to be stirrin.
times for Mr.. Lynch. Go to it gen

The leading republicans in both
branches of congress have royalty
stood by President Wilson in his
troubulous days of late. Many demo-
Gratis including the lone representa-
tive from Minnesota, did their utmost
to thwart the wishes of their leader
and thus serve notice on the European
powers that the congress and people
were not back of their president. Re-
publican craftsmanship is big and
broad enough to support the Presi-
dent Loyalty in crisis.
