Official County and City Paper SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER YEAR The Primary Law. The primary law was giyen its second test yesterday. Itis too soon to say what the events of the past few weeks have taught us as to the law. This much is certain—there is more dissatis- faction with the law, that is, more dissatisfaction of a serious nature, than there was two years ago. Then the outcry was that the law pryed iuto a man’s private affairs in compell- ing him to declare his political affiliations. Today the law is éomplained of because of the heavy bill of expense it causes the candidate, because it is break- ing downall political lines, be- cause it affords even greater op- portunities for political combina- tions to defeat the popular will than did the convention system. Whether these complaints are justified by the operation of th& law, we shall be in a better posi- tion to judge when we arefurther removed from this, the second test. One thing which much todo with the fate-of the law, will be the vote cast yester- day throughout Minnesota. A heavy vote will argue in favor of the law, while a light vote, will be taken to mean on the part of the people, and the law will be greatly endang- ered. will have indifference A Clean Canvass. Beltrami county. is to be con- gratulated upon the fact that, while the campaign of the past few weeks has been an earnest one, actively prosecuted by the various candidates, there has been little of “mud slinging.” The primary law involves a most strenuous personal contest be- tween candidates and it is a trib- ute tothe worth of the candi- dates that there has been so much good humor, so little re- crimination and so few personal attacks. Even where ample am- munition was to be had it has been withheld and the candi- dates have been content to pre- sent their qualifications rather their disqualifications. This has not been universally true but it has been generally so and there is as a result far less bitterness today than might be expected. With hardly an exception the winners are entitled to their win- nings and the defeated have made a good fight. THE coroner of St. Louis county warns hunters in that county that kiling men by acci- dent will not be lightly excused this year but that indictments for manslaughter will threaten every case. Thisis right. The big game season seems to be rightly named—for then it is that manis in more peril than the wild things of the forest. THE mugwump papers and the democratic press think poorly of Robert C. Dunn’s reply tostate public examiner Johnson’s charg es. We do not blame them.

THOS. BATLEY. at BOUND FOR SAGAMORE HILL. Unarmed Crank Under Arrest at Oys- ter Bay. Oyster Bay, L. 1, Sept. 21.—A man who is regarded by the secret service officers and by the authorities of Oys- ter Bay as a daugerous crank was apprehended here shortly before noon. He is J. E. Reeves, a medium sized, roughly attired man, about forty years of age. He was making his way to Sagamore Hill when he was arrested. He told Officer Tyree, who apprehend- ed him, that he wanted to see the president on important business. Be- lieving from the manner of rhe man that he was insane Officer Tyree took him before Justice Franklin for exam- ination. To the justice Reeves said that six years ago he died in a Jersey City hospital and went to heaven in an automobile. While there he re- ceived an important message for Pres- ident Roosevelt, which he was direct- ed to deliver personally. He also de- clared that he had written a book on his experiences in heaven which he de- sired to have published, as he was sat- isfied that millions could be made out of it. The president, he said, undoubt- edly woulid join with him in securing | the publication of the work and that ‘was one reason why he wished to have a talk with him. He had in his poc- kets $2 in cash and some unimportant papers, but no weapons. He was taken to Mineola, where a formal inquiry into his mental condition will be heid. NEW YORK DEMOCRATS. State Convention Holds First Session at Saratoga. Saratoga, N. Y., Sept. —Chairman Cord Meyer of the New York commit- tee called the Democratic state con- vention to order at noon and at once presented the name of William B. Hornblower of New York as temporary chairman. Mr. Hornblower was escoit- ed to the platform and after the rou- tine business of confirming the tem- porary secretaries as selected by the state committee addressed the conven- tion at length. N An impassioned speech was made by J. J. Fitzgerald, withdrawing in the interest of harmony the contest in the Seventeenth district of New York, al- though he charged that his faction had been defeated “at the point of the revolver” and otherwise by outrage- ous methods. The withdrawal from the contest was received with cheers, especially upon Mr. Fitzgerald’s dec- laration that this was the first Demo- cratic convention in twenty years with- out a contest. Charles N. Bulger of Oswego evoked a cheer by moving to lay on the table “Indefinitely with the thanks of the W. G.
