FOWLER EXPLAINS BILL DESIGNED TO
! CHANGE PLAN OF NAMING CANDIDATES

A. W. Fowler, representative from
Cass county in the state legislature,
who introduced house bill IS to do
away with the primary election sys-
tenn in favor of the convention sys-
tenn of nominating candidates, today
issued the following statement CON
corning the bill:
at has been suggested that an
analysis and explanation of the
proposed new election Law or. b. 25)
comparing it with the present primary
system and the old convention sys-
tenn would be of interest to the public
at large and to those who might be
especially interested in it. Pursuant
to such suggestion the following is
submitted:
'In the first place under the old
caucus system there were practically
no safeguards whatever. The Aus
tralian ballot system did not apply
There was no restraint upon elcc-
pioneering or coercion. There was
little or no prevention of repeating
or ballot stufing. In short, the old
caucus often resulted in an unregulat-
ed, unprotected scramble between
rival factions wherein the we'll en-
trenched political boss was almost
certainly the winner.
Provides Safeguards
"Under the proposed law, all of the
safeguards of the Australian ballot
system and the corrupt practice act
and in fact Of the present Primary
Election Law are thrown about tho
election of precinct committeeman
who are to act as their party repre-
sentatives. In order to run for this
office nomination petitions must be
filed and their names appear upon a
party ballot together with those of
their opponents for this office. These
ballots are cast under all the regula-
tons, restrictions and protection Of
a general election. These party rep
resentatives are elected from the
small voting precinct unit so that
the electors are intimately acquainted
with the qualifications of the candi-
dates.
"In the County Convention under
the proposed law as compared to the
practice under the old system, the
unit rule and the binding Of the dele
gates by any rule or instructions are
prohibited. The vote is by open bal
lot (no chance to dodge responsibility
behind a secret BALLOT and by roll
call of individual delegates. Hence,
each delegate must stand up and OPP
emily declare as a matter Of record
just where he stands. 1t is true, that
under the old system, it was possible
for one group to obtain control of
the county convention and thus con-
troll the delegation from the county.
But was not this accomplished by
virtue of the adoption pf the unit

rule and the binding Of delegation by
instructions SO that all right Of in
dividual voice was abolished?
Furthermore, under the system
now in vogue in this state Of holding
extra legal partisan conventions, to
which delegates are elected from
counties upon the basis sets by the
various partisan State Central Com
mittees, the dominant partisan faction
obtains control of the delegation from
its county and there is no restraint
Except public opinionD upon the fm-
position Of n-unit rule or instructions.
Wipes Out Worst Evil
Gin the State Convention. the same
safeguards to bring about the choice
by individual delegates unfettercd by
unit rule or instructions are provid-
ed. In addition, there is inserted Inv
the proposed law, a provision which
was intended to and which it is be-
heved does, abrogate one of the worst
evils Of the old Convention system
and which perhaps did more than any
one thing to BRING it into just dis
repute. l refer to the provision that
if respectable minority tforty per,
cent? is dissatisfied with the nomin-
ations made by the majority, they (by
themselves) shall have the right to
nominate a ticket and this ticket, to-
gether with the majority ticket, shall
appear upon the run-off primary bat
lot. Under the old system, often the
Slate was fixed up several days in
advance of the convention and was
ratified by bare majority of the
delegates and forced down the throats
Of a reluctant and helpless minority.
II remember as a boy, too young
to vote, talking with delegates re-
turning from an old state convention
and their main complaint was that
the Slate had been all agreed upon
when they got there and they were
forced to accept it without change.
believe that the above provision
(minority nomination. will alleviate
this very bad feature which existed
in the old system. 1t has been sug-
gested that this percentage should be
reduced to 33 1-3 per cent (sinlilar to
the rule which now prevails in Demo
cratic National Conventions). This
might be advisable but is detail
and does not affect the principle in
volved, viz.--of giving full protec-
ton to a respectable sized minority.
Furthermore, it is believed that
this provision will act as a big stick
,s,ho II,
having the effect of, forcing the ma
jority (and the minority also if it
nominates) to nominate the highest
class of candidates possible.
No Legal Safeguards

elections, we have at least two extra
legal factional conventions. No legal
