CORRECTING A FALSE IMPRESS
SION

Among some persons the erroneous
notion prevails that republican voters
are bound by so-called endorsement"
OF General Wood at the State Pro.
posal Meeting, December 2, 1919. With,
out regard to the fact that said meet
ing was not fair, representative
meeting, less than three per cent OF
the republicans of the state partici
pated in the precinct meetings, and
less than half of the precincts even
pretending to hold meetings; and ig.
noring the fact that the state machine
hid to exert itself 20 the utmost to Ge-
cure a mare majority vote for General
Woods "endoresemtn," said erroneous
notion is the lingering recollection of
the ethics of the old convention sys-
tenn, where the candidates and their
friends, after fair and free fight, were
expected to abide by the majority vote
But the primary law is funda-
mentally different. In fact, it is care
fully constructed so that the voters
should be provided with the oppor-
tunity of choosing between two or
more candidates to be presented to
the voters by the proposal meetings"
The first section of the law declares
that "this statute shall be literally in
terpreted and so construed that the
spirit, intent and purpose ."
shall not be defeated by technical"
construction. and then provides for
three separate columns on the of
fcial ballot; one, chosen by majority .
70 be placed III the fourth column. ANY
Ave out OF the 1S6 proposalmen may
select candidate whose name shall .
appear in the third column, and one
per cent of the Voters may by peti- .
tion present other candidates whose .
names sahii appear in the second col .
umn. Thus, it is clear that the pur-
pose OF the state proposal meeting is .
to present several candidates from
which number the republicans may,
with absolute freedom, in the sancity
OF the voting booth, make his own
choice This is evidenced by the fact
that today many of the prominent

members of the proposal meeting who
theer voted TO place General WooC s
name in the fourth column are today
earnestly supporting Governor Low
den, whose name appears in the third
column, while other names appear in
the second column.
That this is the theory of our pri-
mary system is further made emphatic
by the law itself, which specifically
prohibits designating either column as
the majority or minority column, also
prohibits the use of such words as
Progressive, Stalwart, or any factional
label, the clear intention being 10
leave the voters absolutely unbiased
by any action by the proposal meeting.
Let it be distinctly understood that
the state proposal meeting is not a
nominating convention; only just what
it says-a proposal meeting. The nom
nations are made by the people at
the primary, from among the several
names proposed by the proposal meet

If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products
that are extensively advertised, all
at once drop out of sight and are
soon forgotten? The reason is plain
the article did not fulfil the prom
ises of the manufacturer This
applies more particularly to med
icine. A medicinal preparation that
has real curative value almost sells
itself, as like an endless chain sys-
tenn the remedy is recommended
by those who have been benefited
to those who are in need of it.
y @.o-r:nent druggist says Take
TOR example DR.. Kflmer's Swamp
Root, a preparation I have sold for
many years and never hesitate to
recommend. for in almost every case
it shows excellent results, as many
of my customers testify. No other
kidney remedy has so large a sale"
According to sworn statements
and verified testimony of thousands
who have used the preparation, the
success of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is due to the fact, so many
people claim, that it fulfils almost
every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects
urinary troubles and neutralizes the
uric acid which causes rheumatism.
