F. 100, which removes judicial and educational offices from the domain of politics. All candi dates for such offices will be made by petition only to be voted for at the general election in November. As there are no state officers to be chos en this year save three judges of the supreme court and two regents of the state university, and these failing within the provisions of S. F. 100, no state-wide primary will result. Were it not for the fact that the terms of various county officers expire bills fall there would not be even county pri manes neiu 111 iteuraana Lius jear, but as it is the selection of such officers will cause county primaries to be held over the state. Instead of there being separate ballots for each party, a new law, S. F. 109, provides that nominations of all parties shall be on the same ballot, but in separate columns, and a voter, unless chal lenged, is permitted to vote any ticket, but must confine himself to the candidates of some one party from top to bottom, and may not vote for some candidates of two or more parties. If challenged, he must make affidavit showing what ticket he intends to support at the general election following, but there is no way to show, as we can glean from the new law, whether the ticket he votes at the primary is the one he swears to support in said general election. An important feature of the amended act is the rotation ballot for primaries, names of candidates being changed as many times as necessary so as not to give candidates whose names commence with the first letters of the alphabet any preference over those whose initial letter of their names comes further down on the list, thus one whose name com mences with the letter “A” will be on a par only with the candidate whose name commences with “Z,” which commends itself highly to any thinking voter. Party conventions under the new law will be held in advance of the primaries, instead of following as in the past. Another good change. Now. if the primary system had been so amended as to knock the law out entirely the best thing would have happened.
