It has too frequently b en the case that s' fii'Cd STg ing person seeks to defeat the will of the majority of his party by securing the assistance of a lot of voters who do not affiliate with the party. We claim that every part ) ' should be allowed to makc its own nominations. If it makes a mistake it alone must endure the shame. We bdieve that political principle ( arc'clear .ly enough defined that e\'er.\p r. son of ordinary intelligence should be able to line up with some one of the parties. If he can not he certainly has no right to be admitted - mitted to the councils of any party. 'Vc admire a person wllo hag the courage of his convic tions and can always bc depend ed upon. The individual who tries to carry water on uoth shoulders is not the character that should be allowed to shape the destiny of any part } ' . This bill just passed is intended to protect political parties from such rengegrades. 'Ve hope the governor - ernor may see his way clear to sign the bill. /1'11 .
