Much dissatifaction h!Vbecn ex pressed regarding the primarysysteni gf.nelecting candidates for state ami county offices. A year ago the re publican central committee under took to name the cnadidates for county office but their plan mis carried and caused no little dissatis faction. The Couiier never has ap proved of the primary plan of nomi nating. It is a useless expense to the tax payers and does not insure us the best men for office. Why not return to the old plan of nominating m conventions. You will say, perhaps, that until the primary law is repealed a defeated candidate at the convent km would still be able to file for the office under tho pri mary law. That is true, yet the same privilege was open to him to file by petition under the old ilan. Men selected in a convention would have little to fear, however, from the candidates who were unwilling to abide by the wishes of the majo rity. The Courier suggests to the re puiiiean9 oi cuss county mat we hold a county convention, one of the good old-fashioned kind in Louisville s new opera house. We would like to sec Dr. M. M. Ilutlcr of Weeping Water, chairman of the convention; hear Hob Windham, Ex- Uovernor Sheldon, Congressman l'o lard and others tell the old story of prosperity. We will nominate Henry Schneider for secretary and might allow A. L. Tidd to say a few words providing he will tell is in advance what he intends to say and promises not to keep the boys in suspense too long. What do you say,, you republicans of the old school.
