THE POLITICAL POT

Whether, under the nw Indi:m;i primary law, and -p'clilly section 10, a vot'r who at l;it flection did nt vote for a majority of candidates of one party may -vote for the candidates seeking nomination ly that party at the primary ;t question boins thr-3hed out in a test suit brought hy Carl Mote aKaint Horac e A. Caytiday before Jude I wis 1., Kwbank in the Marion county circuit court. Mote, formerly a progressive, says ho wishes to vote Uie republican ticket in the primary, but that he will he challenged by Horace G. Ca.ady. I'.efore beicinnintf the arguments, the parties to the suit admitted the facLs and the defense hied a demurrer contesting the aulMciency of the complaint. Thi raised all questions of law, and the U-iision of Jude Kwhank will end the case ;uu far as thireuit court is conc erned. It is expected the case will he carried to the higher court as a test cae by the loser in the lower court. The defense of the case was made on three propositions. First it was contended that the primary held under the statewide primary law is not an election within the meaning of the .suffrage article -ectlonH 1 and L artich; 2 of the state constitution, but that the primary Is a mere nominating device or .substitute for the caucus or convention held hy the authorized political parties with the sanction anil under the safeguards of the law. 2. It was contended the legislature had the power to prescribe additional qualifications In the nature of reasonable regulations testing one's party affiliations so as to safeguard nominations by political parties. H. It was contended tho restrictions imposed by section 10 are reasonable safeguards, having as their purpose the prevention of members of one political party taking part in t".e primary of another party. The defense argued that a primary is not an election, because all voters do not participate' in a primary, and claiming that this fact violates the state constitution providing for free and equal elections. The idea expressed is that the primary is merely a nominating device substituting older party methods. It was also contended the legislature had the right to lix qualifications fur voters participating in the primary. It was said the belief that the legislature was in doubt as to whether the courts would regard the primary as an election, and in order to remove this doubt it enacted two sections that provide for enforcement of the corrupt practice. act and other clean election laws at the primary. The plaintiffs contended that the sections enforcing. laws for clean election showed tire legislature regarded the primary a.i an election. An election or no an election was held the entire question. "Lafayette may have a place in the sun." says the Iifayette, Ind., Courier, and toes on with the some

what broadcast statement to the fect Michigan's delegation of representatives in ths republican national Convention will go instructed for .Smith, so far as complimentary action is concerned, but that the real pick of th Wolverine state is none other than Chase S. Osborn. ex-governor of Indiana's next door neighbor on the north. "The fact that this illustrious representative of the progressive element in the republican party ie a product of lifayette and that he still retains an interes-t in local affairs makes his possible candidacy of material Interest here," quoting further from tho Courier's Osborn puff. That Lafayette may not -have a place in the sun is also highly probable, if Osborn is expected to bring it through the presidential candidacy. Michigan seemed to have voiced it.s opinion of the Hoo resident at the polls a year ago when Woodbridge N. Ferris triumphed by a majority which shocked even his staunch supporters. Chase S. returned to Michigan to tave the republican party, "he came all the way from Africa where he prepared himself for a national race by shooting lions and returning: to fill his campaign speeches with wonderful tales and marvelous descriptions. As to Osborn's being a product of Lafayette, let that be as it may. South Uend might also claim a "plate in the sun" on that ground; but to far no one has broached the subject in complimentary terms. Chase Osborn was born here, and no doubt retains a great local interest, especially in the men who for reasons best known to the ex-governor's secretary failed to have a band and parade out to meet him on a certain memorable occasion of which Fred Woodward often speaks. Chase Osborn Is a Roosevelt republican and a llooseveltian in act and manner, and the republican party may use him, as it no doubt will use his ideal, bin not, unless that unforeseen hapens, as material for the white house chair. William Alden Smith claims Michigan's support so far as the presidential nomination is concerned. The Crand Itapids man accepts the honor and carries It around with him, seeking someone to whom he thinks it belongs. Perhaps he is awaiting the final choice before contributing" the so-called pledge of his state; 'twould be a very diplomatic thing to -do, is certain. Hut is Michigan pledged to Smith? Cov. Ferris, in a recent interview, laugh merrily and begs the people not to "kid William Alden along any more." lie says it is a little joke of the Smith following, but claiming himself also a friend of the senator, requests them to desist before the idea of support is so firmly imbued in the already susceptible mind of the "victim" that he really begins to hanker for an office it is not his to even dream about. St. Louis has raised over $100,000 of the.J2UO.000 it will offer for the republican and democratic national conventions. Expects to get the rest pledged by Saturday night. J.
