Des Moines, Feb. EX-SENATOR KIM
balls primary bill was attacked rigor-
ously by amendments yesterday when
1t came up for consideration on the
floor OF the senate that the bill itself
got nowhere. Further consideration Of
the bill was postponed until Friday
morning.
Senator Kimball said late last even
ing that this will prevent his going to
Council Bluffs to make an address
which he had promised to make this
evening. He could not get back in time
to take care Of his measure Friday
morning.
Senator Ktmball's bill would amend
the present primary law, as has beer,
pointed out before, by taking off of the
primary ballot all of the state offices
under lieutenant governor. The state
officers, with the exception of United
States senator, governor and lieutenant
governor would be nominated at a
state convention.
The primary ticket would then in
clude, in addition to United States sem
ator, governor and lieutenant governor,
congressman and all county and town
ship officers and delegates to the coun-
ty convention.
Bono Of Conte ntion.
The bone of contention yesterday
was the selection of delegates to the
county convention. 1t was claimed
kimbalrs measure would give too
much opportunity to the county COM
mitteeman to name the delegates t.
the county convention by getting Il
particular list made up by him on the
primary ballot. Senator Foster sue
ceeded in getting an amendment
adopted which would make it possible
for the voter to paste in set of dele
gates under the list printed on the
ballot or write in the names, if need
be.
Senator Caswell, Of Crawford coun-
ty, declared he was against the whole
primary system.
Il don't believe in any primary law,
he declared. THE primary is a frame
up and a farce from start to finish"
Senator Price, Of Monroe county, in
troduced an amendment relating to the
non partisan judiciary law but the
senate adjourned before giving this
consideration. Senator Klmball has
provided for changes in this law in I,
separate bill. Senator Price would
have supreme court judges nominated
at state convention.

officers Of the regular army imposed
some severe rardships on our boys

The resolutions as amended by the
house still carry the charge that the
regular army hid behind the red tape
Of it's organization to insult and
humiliate national guardsmen Who
went to the border and saved the M
tional military reputation. They
charge that the judge advocate gen.
eral ordered that the guardsmen pay
for their uniforms for the purpose OF
disrupting the guard. They declare
that nothing the war department car.
do will justify the injustice.
A movement has been set on foot
in the Iowa house to obtain passage
of law which has as its object the
granting of four year terms to all cleo
tive county officials, and which would
automatically extend the terms Of all
auditors, sheriffs and clerks Of the dis
trict courts until Jan. I, 1920.
The bin was originally introduced
by request by Representative Dean, OF
Osceola county, but he later decided
to withdraw 1t.
It has again appeared, this time be-
ing introduced by Representative Mead
Speaker Pitt is one of the men who
have shown direct interest In get
ting the bill before the legislature and
it is understood that it is to have the
support Of the Pitt faction in the
house.
The bill as presented provides that
in the general election for 1918 each
comfy shall elect a treasurer, a re-
corder Of deers, and a coroner, who
shall serve four years.
The sheriff. clerk and auditor are
to hold over two years. and these Of
flcers will be elected in 1920. In the
future there would then be an election
on three county officials each two
years, instead Of the entire county
ticket being elected each general cleo
