TDK Dlltl'.CT I'ltl.MAKV. A 8aniilf of the C'rltliiKin Many yiiarlciH. Washington Post. In tlio fuel' of all the plaudits of tho 'i)oiiulaic, the (loueral uHHertlrui that dlrwt priniarli n have trans ferred back to the people the powers taken from them by tne tmeses, Jr. Charles W. Ullot, formally president of llnrvurd, hi-s come out flatly with the statement that the new system Is expensive and absolutely futile. Dr. Kllot points out ttiat tho direct primaries virtually rail for two elec tions to carry the candidates Into of fice. This simply doubles tho trouble ..f i ho voter. It is hard enough to in dues the average citizen to go to the voting booth once, without increasing Iho burden. Incidentally, the cost is doubled. T!,n real object of the primary elections was to take the nominating power from the bands or me misses. The city boss bad become a remark able American Institution. Usually he worked mi from the bottom. whero he did handy work In his di vision or district, until he became a district leader. Then he gathered lintn himself a few mors district leaders, who supported him. and af ter that I hoy called him boss There developed a gradual resent ment on tho part of the people against tho dictatorship of men not nlected by them to nny office n man who was nothing more than a nelf constituted ruler. And at last camo Ihn cHroct pri maries. All the big citlfs put the plan Into effect. Kven Philadelphia, of "corrupt and contented" fame, tried it. It was the now thought movement In pollllcs, and as relorm was rampant In the Quaker City at tho tlmo they thought they would Klvo It a trial. And they did. And It worked beautifully for the bosses. The old convention sVEtom was done away with. Under the new sys tem all the bosses had to do was to nend word to Iho division lenders to . lino up tho voters for so and so. The "lieolei s" rang doorbells, got out I he "regulars," and the primary election was carried with a whoop. The "In dependent" voter, never too ready to run to ttie polls, now remained even moro obstinately at home, because the work of voting was doubled. So the bosses hnd things their own way. And now nlong comes Dr. Kliot with his paralyzing decree ngaliiHt the new reform "Too expensive and ln- effective " It looks as though the di rect primaries will have to go. and Just at a time when the posses were beginning to regard tho system as an Idenl Instrument for cairyiug out their purposes.
