NOT ACCEPT CHALLENGE
Neither Ctark, Harmon or I'imIctwoOI
In on Ilecord a Favoring Ciloe of
rrtwldentlal Nominee by 0c Public
at Lau-fTe.
Washington, D. C. March 30.
(Special.) Only Woodrow Wilson
among the democratic aspirants for
the presidency has endorsed the pres
idential preference primary. As yet
neither Speaker Clark, Oovenor Har
mon, Chairman Underwood, or any
of ls others excent Governor Wilson
haa suggested that the nomination be
left to the will of the democratic vot
er The challenge Issued by Mr. W.
F McCombs of the Wilson campaign
managers for a presidential primary
has not been taken up by any or wu
non's opponents. Neither Clark nor
Harmon nor Underwood Is on record
in favor of the election and Instruc
tion of delegates to the national con
vention by a vote of the paty voters
On thR other hand. Governor Wil
son Is plain spoken In advocacy of the
presidential primary. He believes in
thA direct nrlmarv as the cure for tho
evils of bosslsm and machine politics
and he believes that It snouiu govern
the nomination of all candidates fot
office from president down to con-
Htable.
That this advocacy of n preslden
tlnl nrlmarv Is not a new thing engen
ilwrpil hv Governor Wilson's present
nation-wide popularity and taken up
as a sure means to get the nomination.
Is proved by the fact that it was a
feature of the first legislative fight
Governor Wilson undertook after he
became governor of New Jersey. Since
Governor Wilson Is the only demo
cratic candidate who Is a candidate
in every state of the union, and since
he In opposed by a field that has di
vided the states in sections and are
allied against him, his friends natur
ally believe that a primary would
nominate him. His enemies believe
the same thing, that is why they are
not for the primary, and that Is why
no reply has been received to the Mc
Combs challenge.
But no such motive of expediency
can be assigned as explaining Gov.
ernor Wilson's attitude. When he
was elected governor and the legisla
ture convened, his first fight was to
persuade the legislature to respect
the will of the party voters who had
nominated Jame9 E. Martlne for sen
ator In a direct primary. James
Smith, Jr., the old-time boss whom
President Cleveland had connected
with the perfidy and dishonor of the
emasculation of the Wilson tariff bill,
wanted to set aside the primary and
come back to the senate. Governor
Wilson stood for the primary and
won. 1
The next thing he did was to get a
bill introduced to change the election
laws and to provide for direct pri
mark's for every officer from presi
dent down to constable. The ma
chine leaders told him they wouldn't
let It pass, and a democratic confer
ence was called to vote the bill down
The bosses had the votes to do It, too.
That Is, they had th(n when the con
ference was called.
Governor Wilson got himself In
vited to the conference. He made a
three-hour speech in favor of the di
rect primary bill. When he had fin-

Ished. the conference that had . met
to vote the bill down voted it up as a
party measure and carried it on to
victory. The people and not the
bosses, therefore, will Instruct dele
gates in New Jersey this year. It was
an effective speech and it showed not
only the power of Governor Wilson's
logical eloquence, but also it showed
how deep is his faith in the people.
how firm Is his conviction that nomi
nations ought to be made by the vot
ers in primaries, and not left to co
teries of bosses and machine leaders
working behind closed doors, even
when they work according to "the
rules of the game."

Suit for their recovery was brought

Again.
New Tork. The old story of man
lost to his wife and friends and the
wife becoming the beloved of anoth
er, came to light when Francis Tully
convict No. 5266 surrendered to
the police. He Is bitter against the
world, for he Imagined during his
many weary years in the eastern pen
Itentlary at Philadelphia that the
bliss of the past would again appear
when he saw his wife. Instead he
found her the happy companion of
another man.
And then like Enoch Arden he
turned his face. He told his story to
the police and now he will return to
prison.
Tully told the police that he had
been a clerk In the employ of the
Standard Oil company In Philadelphia
and lived happily with his wife until
Savo Your Carpots eetts,le"
It is hard on your carpets to sweep them
with a stiff broom or a carpet sweeper.
They tear and injure the nap of the carpet
more by one sweeping than walking over
it a month would.
Beating a carpet on a line is ruinous too...
It breaks the warp, takes the natural stiff
ness out and causes It to wear out much
quicker than it should.
If you run over your carpets and rugs
every day or two with a DOMESTIC VAC
UUM CLEANER (runs like a carpet sweep
er) you will keep them as clean as your
table linen every day and you will never
have to take them up off the floor. Not
only this, but you will add many months
and years to their life. Think of the sav
ing in money, time and hard work It will
mean to you.
The DOMESTIC rolls over the floor and
sucks up the dirt without the slightest wear
to the carpet no brushes no bristles
Just a strong blast of air rushing through
your carpet up Into the cleaner carrying
all the dust, dirt, moths and microbes with
It and not one particle of the dust escapes
from the cleaner to settle
again In the room as It does '
with the old fashioned meth
ods. It keeps the nap raised,
making the carpet soft to
walk upon and the original
colors are kept bright and
fresh as new.
Thousands of housewives who are now using DOMESTICS are en
thusiastic in their praise of them and would not part with them at
any cost. Call and see them. There Is nothing to get out of order
nothing to wear out.
