For the SPECTATOR.
Reasons for a Primary Under the
Walton Election Law.

Editor of the Spectator:-I have been forci-
bly, struck with the cogency of the reasons as
signed by the indicator and Daily Neaos why
the Democrats of Staunton should hold this
Spring primary election for city officers un-
der the Walton election law. The first reason
is, that it would be an ''object lesson to teach
the country voters how to vote under it. This
is for the benefit of the ignorant country PEG
pie who have to be taught by the town PEG
Pile; and the second is for the pecuniary benefit
of the town people as this show would take
country people to town in such numbers that
much of their money would be left there in
the pockets of the town people This the
Neacs says. 1t is my humble opinion that if
better reasons cannot be given. the show
ought to be abandoned, for the country people
know about as much about that law the
town people, and they know that the show
would be to stand off hundred feet or more
distant from the polling place and to see men
walk into it, and then to see them walk away
from it-this and nothing more. for they are
not allowed to see what is done in the polling
place. Now, the country people can stay at
home and save their time and money, and see
men walk into house and then walk away
again. This is not an interesting show to
them. No. they will not flock in great num-
bers to see this show, should it be exhibited
they are not quite SO ignorant and gulible as
that whatever may be the opinion of the
papers mentioned. Please correct all mis-
takes and publish in your next paper and
thus accommodate an old

and on Easter Sunday this year, in the same

memorial tablet was unveiled, which the Neac1
describes as follows
The tablet is placed at the right of the
chancel, and is in the general shape of large
| bracket, and serves the purpose of Credence
| table. 1t is handsome piece of work and
shows the cunning of skilled conception and
execution. The tablet is of brilliant white
marble with gold trimmings. The back Of
the bracket is a beautiful mosaic of gold anG
agate, containing the device known in church
nomenclature as the "Agnus Del" the figure
of the lamb supporting the banner of the
cross. The whole is surmounted by a cross
| also of marble and part of the whole. The
| memorial bears the inscription in gold letter
| ing, "In Memory of God, and in Loving
Memory of Elizabeth Erskine Gay, Easter
| 1894"
No description or words can give an ade
quate idea of the beauty of the tablet. 1t wa:
erected through the joint efforts of the Canoe
Guild, an organization of the church, OF
| which Miss Gay was a member and Of the
Sunday school class of which she was teacher
| The tablet was made by J. and R. Lamb, Of
