TEST AT PRIMARIES,

The Republican Central Committee,
in its call for State Convention.
recommends a certain test for those who
offer to vote at the primaries OF that
party. This excites the ire Of the Car
son Tribune. and it goes rough-shod for
the test and its authors. We think this
is unreasonable. In every great politi-
cal organization, If it intends to act as
party that is as near unit as possible,
there must be organization. and to per-
feet that organization there must be dis
ciplined cooperation. If an elector does
not wish to be bound by any party ties
be need not and should not affiliate with
one, but keep sloof and exercise his own
judgment just as his discretion dictates.
On the other hand, il he processes to be
member Of particular party and in
tends to cooperate with it and support
its nominees, there is no objection to the
adoption of such test rs will contine
the voters at primary to men OF his
stripe. If be intends simply to act with
the party just as far as suits him and
support such candidates as he may deem
best, why he has nc business voting in
the ranks of those who intend to accept
the party platform and support the nom
inees OF its convention. He puts him.
self in false position if he does, fol
which he has no one to blame but him.
self To sum up the matter in few
words: If a voter does not intend, OF
does not know whether he will act with
a party or not, he has no right to vote at
its primaries; if he is determined to train
with it he should take pains to vote at
and interest himself in the choice of del
egates. OF course. what we have said as
to this matter has no reference to any
party in particular, and is prompted by
the Ito u.s. apparent impossibility of
keeping up any effective party organiza-
ton if each member, like the Kentuckian
at the battle of New Orleans, went to
war on his own hook.

DISTRICT DELEGATES.

The oft used quotation of the ruling
passion still strong in death " seems to
have found a.singular verifcation in the
now abolished local Legislature Of the Dis
trict of Columbia. by late Washington
kilograms it appears that some of 1.-THE retir-
ing members of the House of Delegates
took away some Of the furniture of the

required to return it in dead earnest.
The manner in which this petty larceny
became known is "a little singular. A
creditor of the District had recovered
Judgment and an execution was issued,
which was levied on the furniture of the
House, and then the depreciation became
known and the pilierers required to re-
store the property they had carried of.
This was fit conclusion to the swind.
ling concern and showed that the men,
bers were determined to be consistent
and to close their official career with an
act char cteristic of its previou tenor.
In one respect We think these poor fell

there ought to be one law for the rich
and the poor, there ought only to be
one for swindlers, big and little. If
there is any difference to be made, one
would think that the greater rogue ought
to receive the heavier punishment.
Some how or other they evidently do not
look at things in that light in Washing
