THURSDAY MORNING. June assh. 1873.

News AID oTHEE TTEus.- We pub
lish IN another column the call OF the
Democratic Central Committee for the
Primary meetings Of tfse party in St
Mays. The time Exed for these meet
sings is Saturday, the 10th Of July, and
the places OF meeting, the polls Of the
different election districts. II is 10 be
regretted, we think, that the Commit
tee did not feel Itself authorized to de-
6ne the hours within which these meet
ings should be held and make some
RECOMMENDATION as TO the mode Of or
ganizing. In divided state Of public
opinion, such as here exists, the gaodgs
Ct organization is important, ard, if
unexcepticnable, is potent IN reconcl-
ing inevitable disappointnents and in
bringing about after harmony. The
great point, in issues Of the kind now
before us, isto give just occasion Of COM
plant 10 nobody, thus making want Of
voters the only cause Of defeat. We
hope therefore, albeit the nor-aetion Of
the Committee, that in the prelimina-
" proceedings of the different district
meetings on the 10th, provision viii
be made by the voters themselves for
defining the hours within which the
voting shall take place and the con-
dtions under which il shah proceed /,
aud, as tie hour for the Inauguration
Of these preliminary proceedings is of
consequence and should be general, We
s'lggest l o'clock in the evening Us the
time throughout the county for the
adoption Ct initial measures Of organi-
zation.
