N RICHARDS TALKS T0 BIG HOUSE ON PRIMARY LAW South Dakota Given Good Hearing Here INDEPENDENTS HOLD MEET Association Opposed to League Leadership Prepares for Its Campaign R. O. Richards of Huron, S. D., father of primary election law re- form in South Dakota, addressed an audience which filled the Burleigh county court room last evening, when he discussed the present primary elec- tion system and its defects. Mr. Richards came to Bismarck under the auspices of the Independent Voters’ association, whose annual convention is now in progress here. A The new primary election law in South Dakota, as described by its author, provides for the nomination of candidates in a primary election, to be proposed either by a meeting of representatives of the. party, called “proposalmen,” or by five or more protesting proposalmen, or by the party voters themselves by petition. It provides for filing with the secre- tary. of state of a “paramount issue,” by or in behalf of each candidate for governor or-president, which shall con- tain the principles upon which the candidate’s campaign is based, and it provides for and requires sixteen joint debates by rival candidates for gov- ernor and one by rival candidates for president. It provides for a publicity pamphlet to be published by the sec- retary of state and mailed to the vot- ers, containing among other things arguments in favor of the different proposals for the party platform and candidates. It provides for a direct vote on candidates for nomination for president and vice president and on principles involved in a presidential campaign, such vote to have the effect of an instruction to delegates to na- tional conventions; also that the party state central committee shall meet and make an official endorse- ment. As explained by its author, the Richards primary election law “Makes principles instead of persons the para- mount issue; opens up political party +s) organization to the orderly trying out :: of issues, within the parties and be- tween the parties, to determine the truth’ by’ a’ direct vote; provides the “democratic ‘idea of right: of proposal ‘by ‘petition’ for public welfare within ‘2 the party; provides the republican idea .- of 41 ight of proposals by represen- tative convention, and preserves’ the nof.the. minority to;propose for public welfare within the party, to determine the paramount. issue for A draft of the Richards primary election law, stated the speaker, had ‘been submitted to Townley for his ap- proval, which was withheld. It was submitted to a vote of the people of South Dakota at the last general elec- tion, and they ratified it by a major- itv of more than. 14,000. Burtness Speaks Addressing the state convention of the Independent Voters’ association, Rep. O. B. Burtness of Grand Forks this morning told of the deliberations of the league’s secret caucus down- town and of the operation of tie league steam roller on the hill. He described the manner in which league legislators without giving minority measures the courtesy of considera- tion, kill right and left, regardless of the merits of the measure. He told of the exemplification of the league spirit when there was presented for consideration in the league caucus aj resolution presented in the house by Hemmi of Stutsman, embodying prin- ciples which the league favored, “What shall we do with this bill?” asked Lemke. “Whose “Hemmi’ “Kill it! Kill it!” came the ery} from all parts of the house. “If that’s demoerae, i ness, “I want none of i “There is much in the league pro- gram, much in the legislation present- ed here, that“ has merit,” continued the speaker, “These schemes might work out if their management was placed in the hands of representative men—representative farmers, repre- sentative business men. But as the proposition rests now all of this un- limited power rests in the hands of two men—the governor and Dr. Ladd, and, perhaps back of them, with Mr. Townley. “During the campaign we were told the legislature could not or would not go this far, or, if it did, that the; people would have a chance to vote on it, and the people believed that every bill of this type would be sub- mitted to them for their approval. At least 50 per cent of the people who voted for the league ‘program be- lieved that. And now we find the league moving heaven and earth to t,” someone asked. ” Burt- 2 ” 1,500,000 Men Killed France Has Lost Equal Number of Wounded. NEW YORK.—France in four years of conflict, to preserve her own liberty and that of the world, accord- ing to Andre Tardie, French high commissioner to the United States, has lost 1,500,000 men killed and al- most as many wounded. America owes France a debt of gratitude not only for the reported saving of thousands of lives in this country due to the discovery by French peasants of a perfect remedy for stomach and intes- tinal ailments, the ingredients of which are imported from France by Geo. H. Mayr, a leading Chicago Chemist who sells it in America under the name of Mayr’s Wonderful Rem- edy. It is a simple, harmless prepara- tion that removes the catarrhal mucus from ‘the. intestinal tract..and. allays the inflamamtion which causes practi- cally al stomach, liver and in testinal ailments, including appendicitis.

In depicting the further adventures of the incompar- able “Abe” Potash and ‘“Mawruss” Perlmutter, the authors, Montague Glass and Jules Eckert get a two-thirds vote to pass its }emergency clauses which will preclude the referendum, and we find in each of these league bills establishing great state industries or issuing enormous 'sums in state bonds, a provision that the industrial commission shall act within 20 days, and even if a refer- endum is taken, the action of the commission is not suspended in the meanwhile. The all important thing is to prevent the passage of the emerg- ency and to refer these bills.” FARMER FRANK GETS HIS BILL - BEFORE SENATE (Continued from Page One.) it came up for final passage Monday.
