Chairman John l.. NJ. Irby, OF the
State Democratic executive committee,
was interviewed before the meeting IT
his committee on the 7th inst, and cx-
pressed himself freely as to the lines
on which the party is to be rcorgan-
lied. His remarks arc reported as
follows by tho Columbia Register:
"Thc constitution OF the party cx-
prc:sly states who shall participate In
primary clcctions, namely, known
Democrats and negroes who have voted
thc ID .nOcratic ticket continuously
since 1876. The executive c0Inmlttcc
supplomcntcd this part OF the cOnstitu-
tion for tho election in 1894 by opening
the doors and allowing even ltcpnbii-
cans and l'Opulists TO participate In
tho primary election, who would agree
to abide the result OF tho primary ana
