THE EGZS.
BEL AIR, FRIDAY, JULY 10, 1871,
The Nominations.

How shall the nominations for the Democrat
ic party be made this fall? This is question
for the county Democratic Executive Commit
Zee to decide, and no doubt the committee will
act in the matter solely with view TO the true
interests of the party, and the promotion of har
mony in its ranks, and not whether this mode
or that may be the best for some particular can.
didate or candidates.
That the system of primary elections whereby
the voter directly specifies by his ballot who he
desires for candidates for the respective offices
to be filled, and which has been the mode prac-
ticed for some years past in this county, is open
to some objections cannot be denied Still a
large portion of the Democracy of the county
are of the opinion that if the primary election is
fairly and squarely conducted, by being just as
carefully guarded against fraud as the regular
election in November is, there can be no system
adopted better calculated to satisfy the peo-
pie.
But to give this satisfaction the judges should
be sworn No vote should be allowed unless
the name of the person Offering the vote is borne
upon the registers list of the district in which
he claims his residence, or unless it lisa person
who will be entitled to vote in the district at
the coming election in virtue of his arriving at
the age of q years by that time, or from the
act of his acquiring the right, by completing
the time of residence necessary to make him a
qualified voter. And in all cases none but Dem.
ucrats should be allowed to vote.
In previous primary elections one great cause
dissatisfaction has been the permitting Repub-
lcans to vote, who would merely pledge them
selves to vote at the general election in favor of
some one individual. This should no longer be
allowed. 1t is an interference upon the part our
political adversaries, which only tends to con-
fusion, contention and Generalization.
Would not the better plan for the Executive
Committee to pursue, be TO recommend the
Democracy to assemble at the usual places Of
holding elections, for the purpose of nominating
the candidates by means of q primary election
guarded as above recommended, and at this same
primary election provide Tor taking vote OF
the party upon the question of how in the fu-
ture the nominations of the party shall be made,
whether by primary elections or by conven-
ton?
To this plan, no one who values the harmony
of the party ought to object. But to now arhi-
trarily undo what has been done, and which, af-
ter trial. has recommended itself to the favor of
SO large portion of the party, would doubtless
produce widespread dissatisfaction, and jeop-
ardize the success of candidates who might be
nominated in any other way SToNEwALL

The machine is arranged that threefourths OF tho

the Fan. where 1t is cleaned. In these machines
light rake with three teeth, which takes the
straw from the cylinder and delivers it to the separa

wet or dry; they run light and simple in their
construction and not liable to get out of repair, as
there has been particular attention paid to the selec-
ton OF the wood and iron, and have been made by
perenced men; and in fact expense has been spar
ed to make them rst-class machine. The UndershCt
Machines built wagons, with VIII ie:trees, neck
