We have tust been asked by a
partisan democrat what Attorney
General Grant Fellows really means
when he says
The Michigan primary Law Is only
an advisory one and as far as ! can

by any body voting for whom he
plessrs. IL - purely n matter for the
conscience of each delegate and they
can vote TO please their own con

section eight. or the law, says:
The candidate receiving the high
est number OF votes in the state at
said election shall be declared 10 be
the candidate and the choice OF such
political party for this state.
Now OF course, IL Is easy for any
person but one who Is as blind az
our democrat friend TO see what Mr..
Fellows means. What he means is
that there Is no penalty attached TO
the primary law and that a man can
not be sent TO prison for voting for
Senator Smith, instead OF Henry
Ford, even though Ford got the
votes Of the people.
That's what Attorney General Eel

cially as attorney general, but as a
republican. The whole thing Is n
matter Of conscience. II the dele

any more than there IL in breaking
a pledge YOU have made TO your

Under the scheme now drawn up
the National Woman's Council OF the
Netherlands is arranging for inscrip-
ton Offices to be opened all over the
country, where all the available ie-
male labor forces can be registered
and classified on the card system. 1t
is to be left to each woman volunteer
TO say whether she would desire a
salary or not. and whether she has
any objection TO transfermeut from
one place to another. while she is on
tirely free in her choice of thr nature
Of the work. As. however. there is
likely to be a superabundanc. of Of
feTs for certain kinds OF labor, the
volunteer can register a second and
even a third selection. No wage-paid
is to be less than that earned by tie
man replaced; on the other hand, the
woman so employed may in no case
claim the place when tho emergency
is past.
The plan has entire approval Of
