Democratic Primaries.

Democratic primaries will be held next
Saturday. In some of the districts there will
be contests. There can be no objection 10
this. but the ADVOCATE now, as it has always
done. counsels moderation. There should
be no bitterness nor luminosity, but open, fair
trials Of strength before the voters. The I'M
successful should accept the result with the
same good grace as they would want the
other side 10 do if the tables were iprned. In
fact, no Democrat ought 10 participate IN a
primary unless he is willing TO abide by the
result and support the whole ticket just as 1t
is nominated. It is only by the acceptance
OF majority rule that the party can be main
tanned, and party success can only be secured
by united action AT the polls.
