FAVORS THE PROPOSED LAW
Kansas City Star See* Much Value
In a National Presidential
Primary.
The bill to be presented to congress 1
for a federal presidential primary law
will afford a test of true progresslveIsm.
Those who believe in popular
government and who truet the people
will vote for the enactment of
such a law. Those who depend on
secret machine methods will oppose f
iu CDscuoeni.
Of courif the bill as It Is projected
by progressives of bbth parties will
jcounter the objection that it Is "unconstitutional."
Every good thing is
said to be against the constitution.
But the constitution Is not half as
bad as It la represented to be by
ttfase who say they are its clone?*
friends.
A national presidential primary c**e?
S&lnly could not be as evasive of the
Constitution as Is the entire system
Of national party conventions. The
constitution provides an electoral college
for choosing a president. We
still have an electoral college; but it
imply records what the convention*
Initiate and the people determine at
the polls. The electoral college will
prevail under the new proposed arrangement.
The change will bs simply
that the people will Initiatethat
the people, and not the machines,
will control the nominations.
The direct senatorial primaries
within the several states arc another
Instance of a change In the method
of selecting high federal officials from
that method contemplated In the constitution.
The move for a national presidential
primary embodies the right principle
In the right and practical form.
It 1* right for both parties. It Is nonpartisan.
Progressives of both par
ties in every state shonld Insist that
their senators and representatives
vote for It?vote for It In time to con- |
trol the nominations of 1912.?

Will Vindicate Democratic Policy.
The position of the Democratic
party Is vindicated by the fact that
this board, of which a majority are
Republicans, Is unanimous that duties
jon wool and woolena should come
down, and that the president who vetoed
the Underwood bill laat summer
recommends the reductions. The fur(ther
the tariff shall be investigated,

party will be vindicated.?Phlladeb

Mrs. Llna Arthur, 8r., o28 W.

"I suffered greatly from dull nagging
backaches. I could hardly get around
at times, and was rfrald to mov? on
account of the knlfle-llke twinges In

I saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised

relieved every symptom of my
trouble." (Statement given January
