The primary law may or may not be constitutional, That of course remains for the highest tribunal in the state to decide, and legally, these gentlemen are perhaps well within their rights, however we may regard their efforts from the moral point of view. Certain it is that every candidate who entered the election contest was well aware of the provisions | pi the law. He knew the game as well as his opponent and none had an unfair advantage over the other. Having put his name before the people under certain conditions, it would be the part of a good loser to abide by the decision Doubtless. many of the defeated candidates now believe that the primary law is not according to the constitution of the state, and their interpretation comes solely by reason of their defeat. Had the votes been counted otherwise, the status of the law would not be questioned by them. The direct primary law satisfies the people of the state even though it may fall short of the approval of some disgrunt- led politicians and hair-splitting lawyers. It gives the people the opportunity to express their choice, and that we take it is the sole intent and purpose of any election law. Theoretically election laws are not designed to facilitate the ambitions of any candidate or any party, and here is where the rubs come to a great many. A law which looks merely to what the people want, may overlook what some particular clique of party wants, and then begins the search for some constitu fiona! provision that can destroy the law.

The trouble is that “pie” in the English language and “pie” in the American language are entirely different prescriptions. Our English cousins—or, rather, great-granduncles and aunts—used to make and cat “pie” that made the hardened sen- sibilities of a doctor fairly quiver. The “pie” was a paste of half cooked dough, grease soaked and filled with underdone pork. These were eaten cold and were injurious even to the iron constitutions of people with two centuries less of civiliza-| tion than we have today. The modern English “pie” is a much | credited.

So the old EnglisM doctors wrote in their books, | “Don't eat pie,” and the American doctors copied the ery, and we have all felt sort of guilty and sneaky all our lives when we ate a wedge of good American pie. “Pie,” in United States language, means a light, well- cooked crust filled with fresh, wholesome berries or fruit, and is what the English call a “tart.” No English doctor book ever said “Don’t eat tarts.” And so the doctors have been using the wrong word—they forgot to translate the English doctor books | into United States, just as they would translate a German or a French book. Of course, the result has beer that innocent, wholesome “pie” bas caused a lot of sickness, for if we ate a piece and then began to worry for fear it would make us ill we would be as sick as though we had eaten a cold slab of the real antique English article.

In a word, the republican party, as & party, had become rotten to the core. Roosevelt, brought into power by accident, has tried to make the re publican party stand for better things. Conceiving that the real problems of the day had to do with divorcing government from the con- trot of is business” and special privilege, he has tried to force the republican party to adopt this gen eral insue.
