A number of Democrats met al
the hall over the store of Fred Il.
Meekins. Esq, Tuesday afternoon
and organized the Peoples Demo
cratic Club. In stating the reason
for its organization the secretary OF
the club gave out the following
statement:
On Tuesday. September 2oth'
1921, representative citizens from
all parts OF Dorchester County met
and forned an organization TO De
known as the Peoples Democratic
Club.
The reason for the formation OF
this Club is that many Democrats
have for a long time felt that they
have not had fair and equal
chance to name candidates III the
primaries They realize that the
only way to accomplish results Is 10
make an organized effort. 1t is their
purpose in the future to name anu
by all fair and honest means, eli
deavor to nominate candidates Whom
they think suitable.
In the coming election it IS the
desire of this Club to see the Demo
cratic ticket elected. 1t is not now,
and it never will be, the purpose OF
this Club to defeat the Democratic
ticket in any general election. On
the other hand, it will always be the
purpose of this Club to help the
Democratic ticket win in every cleo
ton. 1t is organized and will tunc-
ton only for the purpose OF haVlne
a fair and square chance OF naming
candidates whom it thinks best
oualif1ed to hold offices and most de-
serving of them.
The cau for the meeting Tuesday
was contained in the following letter

Mr.. Kane in, closing said he war
aware Of the fact that both the pri
mary system and the convention sys-
tenn might have evils and that there
was room for argument on both sides
but that he believed that except in the
rural units, the convention system was
preferable. Mr. Kane was greeted

Simmons Speaks.
Ex-senator Simmons speaking for
the primary said that it should not be

chance to exercise their rights in the

Simmons said that Thompson must
not be such bad sort of fellow be.

ed as one of the best minds"
Speaking of the expense of holding
primaries, Mr.. Simmons said he had
heard of no widespread objection on
this score. "How many petitions" he
asked, have been presented to the
legislature complaining of the expense
of holding primaries? We're not the
members of this senate nominated by
the direct primary SYSTEM" he asked
would anybody say that this senate
is inferior to any previous senate? Is
not the same true of the house? Were
not the judges of our higher courts
nominated at the direct primary and
will anybody say that they are in
ferior? And there are our congress
men nominated in the same way"

great amount of business in very
short time.
A New York evening newspaper has
published list of members of the
house of representatives who have
placed relatives on the government
payroll to receive all or part of their
clerk hire" allowance. The newspa-
per in question distributed papers con-
tanning the article throughout the
house office building and to say that
this action caused commotion Is stat
ing the case mildly.
Representative r. N. Elliott of the
Sixth Indiana district is not listed
among the memers who have followed
the practice the New York newspaper
criticises sharply, both in it's news and
editorial columns. In fact only two
members of the Indiana delegation are
named, and in each instance the rela-
tives these congressman have employ
ed in their offices really work for the
salaries they receive.
Allowed $500.
For the past two years the house
has appropriated $4,000 per year for
clerk hire" for. each member of con.
gress. A member can employ one per
son III his OIIlCG IOT the lull dHOuut
of the appropriation or he may employ
as many clerks as he desires provid
ing their combined wages do not ex
coed the amount of the appropriation
1t is provided further that government
employees who receive salaries of 81,
500 or less per year shall receive an
additional bonus of $240 per year
Consequently many of the congress
men have at least two clerks on theiI
payroll, so arranged that neither re
ceives a salary in excess of $2,50(
which makes it possible for each CLERK
| to receive the $240 bonus.

ton" Mr.. Simmons said that the
direct primary should be retained and
that If people make a mistake under
its operation, the responsibility is
theirs.
Woman Speaks.
DR.. Amelia Keller spoke in favor of
the direct primary. She said that the
women felt thankful that the Republi-
can party had given suffrage to them
and that they had showed their thank
fulness in the vote they cast in the
last election. But" she said, ''you
must not take away with your left
hand what you have given with your
right.
Mrs. Keller referred to the many OBJ.
jections that were maze against the
Australian ballot when the system was
adopted. Referring to interest," in, pri-
maries she said the number Of people
who attended them and were interest
ed would be in proportion to the i'm
portance of the question to be decided
at the primaries.
She declared that party organiza-
tons control conventions and urged
that the primary day be improved,
not killed. Mrs. Ovid Butler Jameson
of Indianapolis, spoke along the same
line.

stained the direct primary. Indiana,
Mr.. Ryan said had had only four years
experience with the direct PRIMARY
and that he said was not long enough
in which to test system of the kind
before the bar of public opinion. He
preferred to take as an Illustration the
state of California where he said the
direct primary had been in operation
since 1910.
In California in 1910 he said the Re
publicans nominated Hiram johnson,
a poor man over wealthy man who
had the backing of the Southern Pa
clflc crowd. The man on the ticket
that year who received the lowest vote

In 1915 he said Senator Johnson
sill poor received 161 900 votes in the
Urinary to $4,000 for his opponent
who was a very wealthy man. Stew
ems for governor who was a poor man
got more than 10000 votes while his
opponent who was millionaire ship
owner received only 10000.
Mr. Ryan also said that conventions
are not deliberative bodies and that
the return to the convention system is
not any advance toward a higher rep

Kane Opposes.
Former State Senator Ralph Kane
took up the argument against the d
rect primary. Senator Kane said the
direct primary might be satisfactory
in the so-called rural counties but he
doubted the advisability of the system
| in such counties as Marion, Wander
burg, Lake, Allen, st. Joseph an(
others of such population. And prim
aries in Indiana he said were actually
| controlled by the returns from these
| populous counties.
! Speaking of the question of pool
men seeking nomination under the
primary system Mr.. Kane said he pre-
ferred to take Indiana as his illustra
ton rather than California. The can
didate who was successful in beins
nominated and elected governor il

of $4,000.

pense as that for the small salary tina
the office pays? And l include yol
