Since Ex-Governor Hatfield flatly de-
nounced the statewide primary law IN

opened their columns TO lively dis
cussion relative to the merits or de-
merits OF this law. The Parkcrsburs
News thinks that the primary Is inca
pable of awakening Interest on the part
Of tho voters. justifying It's claims by
the small vote polled by both parties
at the recent primary election. This
napcr is also against II because OF It's
Inability TO serve the public welfare,

ven!cncc and expense to the candidate.

chiefly designed to serve. IT Is no
safeguard against trickery. Tho

mary election to determine the
