. CURRENT THOUGHT What U Uppermost to Minds of Many Thinkers First Test of Primary Law y From Millville Republican. On Tuesday tbs sew direct piimaiy law had 1U Orel test, a.id while the results achieved under U throughout th.> Slate my not prove that It h*k all'Unit It* edvooate* claiuicu for U, yet wherever the people wothe polls and exercised their rIsbell did accomplish the real which It was Intended, nao selection of candidate* desired by the •». * Cumberland county Isaac T. Nichols could not have been nomlna ted for tbe Legislature or George W. •ayue for Sheriff in a delegate con iontlon.' Tbe machine was against both men and would have defeated i both, but-It could not control people themselves. Nor could Frank B. Potter have been defeated. The machine was for him and would voted enough delegates to have nominated him even though the body the Republican doctorate was overwhelmingly against Mm as they proved when they got a free, untrammeled opportunity to express their Ion. in the borough of Vineland Mayor Sawyer and anU-machine councilman could not have been nominated for the same reason. Everett Dolby, for Senator, william Morgan, for Sheriff, w< have been relegated to the rear Essex county had they had to on a delegate convenUoc their re no intuition, and a divided result could not have been m Gloucester county, where the Loudenalager hnd Avis factions divided

the offices.

As In regular elections, no can be framed will defeat the echeme of the politicians unless the people themselves do their duty and go the polls. Wherever the primary law has failed to bring about change for the better, the feult Use at thi door of the people, not with the law. Reforms are of alow growth, be im. change is the method of select ing candidates will grow In favor and the people will then wonder why they allowed themselves to be enthralled by the political bosses
