This law was framed by Senator Van Dusen and Is In tended to protect primary elections and also to punish offenses committed thereat. AH persons who are legal voters shall have the right under this law to participate In primary elections , but shall bo subject to such political qualifications as may too pro scribed by law or laid down 'by ' the commit tee. In order that none but those affiliat ing with and being members of any political party shall participate In any primary elec tion a system for the registration of such persons has been provided. Supervisors of registration will note In foooks to be provided for the purpose the political party which the applicant for registration affiliates with. In this way It is hoped that the packing of primaries may be obviated , at least tea a great extent. In all primary elections held under this act the officers for each election district shall consist of two Judges and one clerk and their duties and responsibilities shall bo precisely the same as those legally appointed and regularly qualified officers of regular state elections.- These primary offi cers are to be appointed by resolution passed by a majority vote of the members of the regularly organized and constituted com mittee or governing authority of the politi cal party holding such primary election. Be fore entering upon their duties these Judges and clerks shall "be required to take the same oath required to bo taken by officers of regular state elections. Officers for primary elections must bo selected at least ton days 'before ' primary elections are held. The provisions of this law apply to all pri mary elections held for the purpose ot nominating candidates for state , county , dis trict or municipal officers. As the regular registration must first bo made/ before this law goes Into effect the ilrst opportunity given to work under the new provisions will bo next spring , when a mayor , city treasurer , city clerk , police Judge and four members of the council are to "bo elected.
