An Administration which stood for a slur on ham and eggs, “sunny side up,” would have started something it could not have finished. or presents data h the had Primary and Convention. b t t (Cordova Times of the direct primary the information he needs an intelligent vote and that he has a wish to use it for the best public purposes.

Now they have found that they can get pr what they want without assuming any responsibility for it. The convention system can be regulated to give each voter an opportunity to vote for a dele- gate to represent him.

He at least will be a citizen with a special purpose and a special in- terest and the average man so selected will shoulder the responsibility and in his decisions/ he will reflect the character and public spirit of| the community which has chosen him. In almost any convention there will be bad eggs and good | eggs, but it is almost always true that in any community the person selected for delegated aunthority is above the community normal in intelligence and activity. At its best the convention permits considera- tion and adjustment.
