A primary election to nominate
a candidate for congress in this
district is being agitated as the
best means to prevent a locked
convention, which is sure to
happen with five candidates in
the racc. The primary is the
proper way to do it, but it should
be conducted on the same princi-
ple as the county primarv, that is
let the two highest in the (ii at
election run a second race, thus
giving the nominee the indorse-
ment of a majority, as anything
short of that should not be con-
sidered as a nomination. This
method would also bring out all
the democrats in the district and
