Primary nominating law reform meets stiff opposition
Editorial notes bills to amend the primary nominating law should not pass. It suggests removing the petition to secure a candidate’s name, replacing it with a fee, and allowing multiple candidates with a top two finish to face voters in November to counter factional influence. It also condemns proposed Schedule K tax hikes on woolen goods and apparel as excessive. The piece critiques Democratic control and cites Taft administration appointments and the National Monetary Commission, warning against influence by moneyed interests.
