One Casper attorney, who is also prominent in the industrial and busi- ness life of central Wyoming goes so far as to term a movement to this | end as Bolshevism. The suggestion to amend the Wy- oming primary law to give the old convention system power again is a decided step backward,” said Frank G. Curtis. “It is a poor idea to adv cate in a progressive state liketh | Any member of the Wyoming legis- lature who favors such a measure will injure his political future. { “We need and we want a real peo- |ple’s government from the founda- ‘ion upwardly. The primary election is the basic foundation of the peoplo’s nower. The present Wyoming pri- maries, where each qualified voter may step into the booth and secretly vote for whom he or she likes, and \have that vote counted just as he or she casts it, even tho his or her choice stands entirely alone, is the proper method. ‘Of all times, this is no time to dis- cuss taking power from the people at large. This is the day of the people. Real republi- |canism is rising. The greatest danger to this or any other country tod: the Bolshevik movement. How is it constituted? It is made thru trea’ ing on the people at large. The Bol-: sheviki want no real government. Why? Because they think govern- ments oppressive. It has been their experience that they have been op- pressed by governments. The mise able of the world wou! check up on these points and thus we get the Bol- ; | sheviki. “What is the cure for the evil? The cure is NOT to have oppressive gov- ernments! The cure is to let the peo- ple make their own governments and to actually elect their own_ repre- sentatives, and not have a mere sham | government which must eventually’ | punished for its sham. If people are ‘uplifted and educated and if they make their own laws, they will honor | those laws and correct them as they |tind them defective. They will then ‘honor their country and social dis content and Bolsheviki movements ‘vill disappear. “Any candidate for office, should wish to have the voter vote directly for him or directly against him, in- ‘stead of getting some powerful man or men to handle a convention for jhim. Everybody knows how a few 3trong men can manipulate a con- vention of ordinary delegates. “Bill” Barnes of New York state sought to delegate and convention ystem. Why? Because he could handle such a stem! Tammany Hall was just as strenuous for the delegate and convention system. Why? Because it also could handle such a system! Hughes beat “Bill” Barnes and Tam many Hall and their kind and gave | the people of New York 2 chance to run their own affairs. Who, in Wy-| oming, wishes to get into the “Bill” arnes They can get there in a hurry if they advocate taking away the direct | power of the people to nominate their | candidates. “We do not want corrunt politic- ians to corrall a few sv-called repre- sentatives of the people, known as lecates to conventions, and tell those delegates what ot do and pos- sibly buy and sell them like cattle. Of course, we have no corrupt poli- ticians in Wyoming, now, but a temptation like the convention sys-| tem might breed them. “If the people of Wyoming were that would be one thing, but they are not. That is an- other thing. Our people read their! papers find most everybcdy here) |knows most everybody else and thus, our people are fully cxpable of ai- {tending to their own business and es- pecially able to vote their own votes. | “The best thing that could have) happened in ‘America to down the Bolsheviki growth here, has hap- pened thru the National Prohibition; ory. We must continue such vi tories. That means the lower cla: are going to have better homes and more homes of their own; morc | clothing; more and better foad to eat and what is very important, they are, going to be able to educate their children better and: they are going to want to do it. That is the kind \of a program we need, but of course, we need such spiritual backing as caused us to raise our late victorious armytogether with our education, or we will drift, toward a culture that is ‘kultur.’ We need to work more ‘for mankind and less for self. “Let our people realize the great value of their votes in primaries as well as in elections.
