The ( lorrujit l'ractico law, in the language of one man
who held u state olljcc Jor many years, "was made only
in be ilodced or broken." n its present Jlorm it is too
drastic to permit reasonable expenses for a siale-wide

The Law's ih-Ckhi is very mm-h like 1 he law which de
mands every citizen to give in his properly Do the assessor
including the money in the hanks on deposit. People d!o not
follow this law, yet they make an affidavit to the assessor

Further evidence , that the pure, direct

this week had a senatorial contest of several candidates.
A light vote with wrangling much as the Oregon guberna
torial campaign ensued. Hut. in Iowa the law provides
for a convention in case any successful candidate does
not receive a certain percentage of the vote. Thus, that
state has a repair shop always ready ,ffir political party
rows. iS'ew York goes still further and makes a belter im
provement by holding party conferences which write plat
forms and recommend candidates for nomination.
While 1he troubles oil' Iowa are said by the press of
that state to lie staggering, they do not compare with Ore
gon's troubles. That is why the present primary laws
should be improved, and from every section of the state
comes news of the desire to have it improved.
