evangelistic campaign in Richmond during March and April, 1922, according to reports received from slightly over half of the churches. A committee consisting of ReV. It. W. Stoakes, H. S, ;Jatnes and E. Howard, Brown, of tUeCMih'sterial , association. Is ' in charge of arrangements, ; ; ; ; A unanimous . vote for the great evangelist is not . expected as it is known that some churches are not in favor of the project.

Report Favorably on Hospital Annuity Bill The bill of Representative Knapp giving Wayne county the-rightto accept a $50,000 gift for the tuberculosis hospital, subject to certain conditions, was reported favorably by the committee today.

PRIMARY LAWS .

(Continued from Page One.) pressing the scheme to abolish the primary and, restore the convention? Are they- exclusively Indiana influences? Systematic Assault. "All these and many more questions that will readily suggest themselves, are made pertinent and necessary by the strange and plainly systematic assault upon the primary, made without any popular demand whatever but, instead, made in the face and even in deriance of mature, settled and permanent public sentiment. There must be some explanation of this curious phenomenon; what is that explanation? "Undoubtedly there are good men,

Hearing of the divorce case of Fern Harris.' against Francis Harris was held to Wayne . circuit- court Friday, morning.

The report is the result of constant observation and sets forth that this pool, which attracted wide attention because of the fifty million cubic foot gusher, has been comparatively restricted. The intense drilling has not spread over 500 acres. Record of the department of internal affairs Bhow that on January 1, 1921, 180 wells were still producing gas and 411 wells were dry. The December production was an average of 9,460,000 feet a day.

honorable and able men, who prefer the convention to the primary. I respect the opinion and esteem the motive of such men ; I simply . do not agree wtih them. They present' no argument. that has not-been used over and over again against every advance in popular representative government. Old Arguments. "Their arguments are as old as the conflict between monarchist and republican institutions; they are. indeed, the same arguments, essentially, that the foes of popular representative government have employed from the beginning. The truth iis that these excellent gentlemen do, not believe that the people 'are capable of ', choosing their own representatives to- run their own government in private conversation they frankly say. so. "But these good men of spotless repute will admit that they are accompanied by less creditable characters in their opposition to the direct, open and honest nominating primary. They will admit that every professional lobbyist is also against the people's primary. They will admit that every party manipulator Is also against the people's primary.' They will admit that every unsavory 'practical politician is also against the people'Sj primary. They will admit that all the corrupt forces in American life that formerly used these men to control conventions, legislatures and congresses, are also against the people's primary. : "The pretexts for attacking the primary have been exploded: but they are patched up and refloated, so they have to be pricked again and again a tiresome but necessary Job. Convention Costly "Expense? Far more money was spent under the convention system than under the primary, and it was corruptly spent and secretly spent; whereas money spent in primary contests is honestly spent and openly tspent. Also the primary law does not 'require can did a tee to spend a dollar; it is the fault' of the candidate, not the law, if he squanders inordinate sums. "The poor man at a disadvantage?

states having the primary than were chosen when those states had the conventionthe power of corrupt wealth has been greatly reduced. ,- Attacks Principle . "Unfit candidates named at primaries? That Im an Indictment of the fundamental principles of popular representative government. Also, notoriously unfit candidates were named by conventions. Moreover, now that women can vote for. their party candidates directly at open primaries, the possibility -of bad, foolish or incompetent candidates being selected Is tremendously diminished. "Does any speaker, man or woman, rho expects to appeal to the people for bis or her party in the coming campaign, want to defend the repeal of the primary? Does any member of the legislature want to do so? Yet that will have to be done If the primary is destroyed or impaired and the convention system restored it is certain to be a controlling issue. Speaks For Primary. "Personally I do not want to do such a thing and I will not; and I hope to have the privilege. of speaking for my party in every county in Indiana Before election day in 1922. "Will the success of the cabal gain a single vote for the party responsible for it? Will it not lose thousands of votes from that parti? Can any party afford to lose any votes at the next election? Everybody knows the answer to these questions. Where is the sense of this scheme, from the point of view of party well-being? As a sheer matter of party management, is not this assault on the primary most unwise? In the persistent attempt to Jam tjil3 measure through the legislature, is there any evidence of that boasted wisdom-and foresight said to distinguish those exporienced politicians who once ran our conventions and want to do so again? Issues Challenge. "Those who persist in their effort to destroy the primary assert that we

who defend It are actuated by personal ambltioi-an ancient trick of the thwarted legislative manipulator. You women know how false that charge Is as concerns yourselves; it is equally false as concerns us who are fighting by your side. "Personally, I am willing at any time, publicly, to pledge .myself to refrain from public service forever, if Uiat pledge shall become necessary to fcave the primary and I am sure that every person who, on principle, is waging this battle for human rights, feels the same way. This is a fair and a sincere offer it is now up to the little' clique which has decreed the death of the primary and, in desperation, has put out these men and mendacious insinuations it is now up to this little clique to accept this challenge or cease to practice such nefarious methods." Mr. Beveridge will speak before the Wayne County Bar association on "The Life of John Marshall," at 7; 30 o'clock Friday night in the high school auditorium. The public Is invited. .
