best ported McKinley or Uiteltucr, or a Republican who forsook Blaine for Cleveland, would bo capable. Such a person has no place ill any party. He should flock by himsdf and not crowd bis way into the Masonic lodge of either puny. The independent voter has his place; he is to be encouraged; but. his place is at the polls, not at a primary.

This little affair has been arranged for the settlement ot domestic misunderstandings in a political family. When the voice of the umpire, which is the ballot box. has been heard, a general handshaking should occur Such Is the purpose and intent of the primary election. Future Effects, The Inevitable growlh of the primary must eventually be such as to render the state conventions of parties merely perfunctory performances. The nominee will be decided upon at the primary! And this will come to pass before many years shall have rolled 'round.

Only a few days ago, a leader in Brooklyn told mo that he had spent $.18,000 of his own money in the primaries! Think of that! He probably spent as much more cash belonging to and contributed by other people. If such figures do not show the growth of tho primaries, there are others. Every thing Is making It more and mure difficult for poor man to succeed in politics. In the first place, ho cannot receive the slightest aid from any corporation. This law is very stringent.

It was passed by the last Legislature, after tho appalling exposures of corruption among the life Insurance companies. Indeed, if am correctly Informed, the bill was drawn by Mr. Hughes, the present Republican candidate for governor. Whence the Money? Campaigns cost money. Mr.

Hughes Is not a rich man. Where will the campaign expenses corno from? To give more than without making a sworn statement to the Secretary of State, Is a highly criminal offence. Mr. Hearst will finance his own campaign. His annual Income of more than $2,500,000 will bo at the disposal of the campaign managers.

It will not he necessary for him fo violate (lie law. Air. the Republican chairman is a wealthy man and will no dot'bt give freely 0f his own money, fully complying with (he law thereafter. But the situation must be one of great anxiety to Treasurer Sheldon. And I his distressing stale of affairs is wholly duo to the overthrow of the old lenders at the primaries.

Mr. would have found sonic means of providing the slnew3 of war and would have done so within the Pale of the law. It a doubtful how much Irlerest will feel In the progress of events between now and November That he will voie for the candidate Is a safe bet. If the primaries hadn't upset the status nun In Manhattan Island everything would he different, although the same enndidates were in the field. "Have ware therefore, of the September primaries! might he said, ns remarked the wise one to Caesar regarding the ides of March.

Two Contests Necessary. If one could be convinced that the public were beneficiaries hy lite growing use of the primary. I'd be the first to hail the change. True, tor the boss it hereafter will mean two contests instead of one. He must make a Vh power' t0 fWt I he delegates that, suit him and to perfect his counly or state machinery; and finally he' niust try to elect his candidate, which these delegates havo chosen.

This condition has existed only In name until lately, ilie voters now "want to know, don't you know. Their number, as shown by primary rolls, will grow year after year the delegates will bo pledged to certain candidates and elected at the primaries with such understanding. When that day is reached, iho state convention and tho subsequent election will not interest the general mass of voters We shall find that, the vote In the primaries will closely approximate Hint of ihr. iin.i Frederick P.

MUs Rvelvn Sarah Madden, of 220 Gar in the public pillory for the past two years; but it is the rise to popular favor and, therefore, power of the primary lection.

Never in the history of parties in the United States have the citizens, meaning the non-politicians, taken so distinctive and active a part in tho preliminary skirmish that has for Its purpose the selection of delegates to nominating conventions. From this year forward factions will make their appearance in all parties, and continue until the primaries havo demonstrated which faction deserves to control "the organization." Strange as It may appear, these antagonisms within parties will build up party organizations, or "machines." Whether this be for the better or not, I do not care to discuss. It is wholly unnecessary to go Into an argument to prove that strength lies in unity. plurlbus unum" is merely the Latin for the old tale of Aesop and the bundle of faggots fragile when separated, but strong to resist any amount of force when tied together. Therefore.

It seems to me that Instead of eliminating "bosses" from the political equation the primary election merely supplants the self-created "boss" by one that BUlts th majority of voters in a party. Has Been Overlooked. The primary is not a new thing In New York State. It existed under tho most "boss-ridden" era of this municipality, when Tweed controlled both parties. But how many of us ever thought of enrolling for the primaries in those days? No facilities were affarded to the voter to take part in the preliminaries of an election.

Even when the implies val came, after the downfall of the ring, and was followed by the election of Mayor Havemeyer, the direction of tho campaign was in the hands of a Committee of Seventy, a seIt-constlJ tutcd body in the formation of which the people had no part. It was a collection of some real reformers and of many more ofllco-seekers who wero "playing for place," first, last and all tho time. I have before mo as I write a list of that memorable committee, productive of great good to the community, and one is surprised to scan the names and to find the vast amount of dros3 that time and opportunity eliminated from the pure metal. However, the Committee of Seventy stood for "organization." Its work was effective only becauso of that fact. That Wisconsin Lesson.

In many respects the first national awakening to the importance of the primary, as voicing the people's thoughts, came from the West. Robert M. La Fol-lette, who had appeared In tho House of Representatives twenty odd years ago and had taken a place of distinction as an orator, secured tho Governor's chair in Wisconsin. He was a native of the state and was accounted a clever lawyer when ho first went, to Washington in 1S84. During his first term as Governor, beginning in 1900, La Follete wasn't very "radical" In his views.

September 29 Olio of the most dangerous stretches for automobiles between Brooklyn and Sea Cliff, is tho stone road fronting Clapham's trout pond, at Glenwootl. So many accidents have happened there that it has becomo generally known as tho "hoodoo" road.

The latest, a short time ago, was when an open wagon carrying two drunken mechanics on their way home from Mineo-la to Sea Cliff, collided near tho bridge with one of Thome's livery carriages. Both wagons were, put out of buHinesH, two of the occupants in thu livery carriage thrown out and the Sea Clif." horse bady cut on the leg. Had this happened in the night, or had an automobile come along from either direction at the speed usually employed there would havo been a tragedy. When the trees on the west side of the read and tho low-growing shrubs nro in leafage, the bend In the road is hidden, and as the road Is narrow and a steep descent to the west, while to the east is the pond, better precautions Rhould be taken to prevent collisions here. Just before the accident which the men from Sea Cliff were responsible for, a man carting stone for the Stern mansion left his horses on the bridge, and a surrey on its way to Glenwood was also on the Owing to the serious illness of the bride's brother the ceremony was most informal, George E.

Advices from Stockbrldge, say: "It is a week now since the issuing of Invitations by Mrs. Thomas Harvey Rodman, for the marriage of her eldest daughter, Elizabeth Burnham Rodman, to Electus Darwin Litchfield, of Manhattan, but until recently of Brooklyn, The wedding is to take place Saturday, October 6. at 3 o'clock, In St. Paul's Episcopal Church, one of the most beautiful edifices in Berkshire, built by the late Charles E. Butler, of New York, as a memorial to his wife.

"The wedding will be the great social event of the Autumn season and the town will be filled with friends and relatives from New York, Brooklyn and other cities of the Rodman and Litchfield families, for whose accommodation thirty rooms at the Red Lion Inn have been engaged, aside from the entertaining of numerous large house parties by cottagers.

If the primary shall be one of the instruments in the hands of a protecting Providence to safeguard the interests of this country, may it continue (o grow in popularity until such time as every man shall feel It a sacred duty to "enroll" in one party or another, or to make bold In his Independence by standing aloof from all parties in order that he may throw away his vote as suits him best.
