THE Executive Committee Sc
lected last Saturday is good one.
Among them are IL number of gen.
tlemen who have had experience
on such committees, ard we are
led to believe from the high char
acter of the committee, and their
determination to have q fair and
square primary election, that the
party will be greatly cementea
and strengthened by their service
1t is understood the committee
will acce le to the petition of the
candidates and call a legallzed
primary. They will appoint men
as judges who are not partizan
above honor, and the result will be
satisfactory, thus dong away with
the usual cry of fraud, ETC., ETC.,
which has been too frequent for
the good of the party. The TINES
desires to congratulate the party
on the selection, and extend the
courtesy of its columns to the con-.
mittee whenever it can aid them in
any good cause.

and that 1T is their Intention TO be

and that 1t is their intention TO be
democrats. They SHOULD alsn be
required to have their poll tax re-
ieipt for 1895. More than this il
may not be wise to prescribe, but
judges should be selected who arc
competent TO judge of the sinceri-
ty of those who offer to vote who
are not known TO have affiliated
with the party in the past. The
party has no desire and cannot af-
ford to refuse the privilege of PAR
ticipati n In its primary election
to men who honestly and sincere
Y intend TO enter the tanks and
oliow the standard bearers IN a
sight to the finish, but those who
)ffer TO vote should be known
democrats, or men of such integri-
ty, that their participation in the
primary could be relied upon to
control their vote in the general
election for The ticket entire.

ONE of the most important du-
ties which is incumbent upop the
new executive committee is 10 pre-
scribe the qualifications of those
who may vote in the primary cleo
ton. THE TINES favors Il liberal
policy toward any and all who de-
sire to affiliate with the Democrat
ic party, but we have done with
concilliatory measures, which
seem to have been accepted in bad
faith, in the past. We believe
that all those WHO vote in the pri-
pary on Juno IS, SHOULD believe
in the principles Of TIE Democrat

a QUESTION OF BOL7ING.

The Press does not consider it
the duty of any man to bow down
snpinely to the will of any man.
Neither does it believe that man
should bjindly follow tho dicta-
tons of any party or organization.
Every American should be, and is
supposed to be, free. 1t is his
privilege to do as he pleases, to
say what he pleases and to wor-
ship whom be pleases, so long as
his pursuit of those privileges does
not interfere with the equal rights
of others. Especially Is it his
privilege to cast his vote for the
man or the principles which he
deems best, or which he would
prefer 10 see successful. He is
not bound to support any man or
party or principle, per Sc.
But there are such things as po-
litical parties in America. They
are composed of individuals who,
by their participation in the de-
hberations of the parties, tacitly
bind themselves TO support those
principles and those men which
niay be chosen by the maj GRITTY OF
the individuals which compose
that party, us against different
principles and different men select
ed in like manner by other parties.
Any man who believes in the main
principles advocated by party
may enter It's ranks and take part
IN its deliberations and in the Sc.
lection Of its candidates, but be-
cause he does believe in tn ose
nam principles he is not COMPEL
ed 10 become Il member of the
party. 1t is. his privilege to either
enter the councils of the party, to
take part in the selection Of its
candidates and in the shaping of
its platform or to wait ard vote for
or against those candidates and
that platform us he chooses.
But suppose he chooses to enter
into the councils of that party and
to take part in shaping its policy
and in selecting it's candidates In
that case, he most certainly be-
comes bound by the will of the
majority Us legally expressed. 1t
is not his pr vilege, them, as an
honorable man, To oppose the
ticket and platform chosen by his
party, and us an honorable man he
will not do so. So long as he re-
NAMED out of the councils of the
party he had an uncurtailed right
10 vote for what platform and
what men he chose; but by enter
ing into the councils Of the party
and taking part in its delibela-
tons. he tacltly contracted to be-
come a member of that party, TO
act with that party, and to sink or

Our Cemetery.

Progressive Citizen.
One thing which our town needs
above all things, and which is sell
dom mentioned even by those who
should be Interested tho most, is @
public cemetery. 1t is a burning
shame and an everlasting disgrace
to the fair name of our little city
and our citizens as well. There is
not, we will venture to assert with
oat any possibility of n contradlc-
ton, another town as large or as
old in the whole State, whose clti-
zens have so little respect for
friends and relatives who have
passed away, or not another town
but what has a public cemetery
owned and controlled by the town
who, i'll turn, sells the lots TO fam
lilies and individuals and which is
kept 10 good condition by sexton
appointed to that position, and
who is paid by the town, who are
not ashamed for visitors and stran-
gers to visit their burial places.
How about our own cemetery, sit
uated on the top of a hill perfect
ly barren with soil Of yellow clay,
whore flowers and grass are utter
ly unknown, the burning sun shin
ing down on the grayes of our low
ed ones who are gone, tombstones
toppled over, and what was once
termed a fence made Of common
wire surrounding the enclosure,
but which is now partially de-
stroyed, allowing stock TO run at
will through and over the last
resting place of our loved ones?
The cemetery lies partly in an ap-
pie orchard, where boys, in their
eagernesB to get the fruit, run over
and teample on the graves. There
is no iDgress nor egress to the
cemetery for hearse or buggies, a
funeral procession being compelled
to stop at the bottom Of the hill
which necessitates tho carrying of
a corpse mp a steep incline Of 900
or 400 yards. Again, we say it is
a shame, an outrage and an ever
lasting disgrace to the citizens Of
our town. This is a matter of VIZ
tai Importance to everyone and
should be taken up and acted up
on at once.

"LoT's wife" stands in history as

holds out faithful for few more
years, she will divide laurels with

Within thirty-two months Mrs.
Lot Wellman has given birth to

one of them weighing nine and
half pounds and the other nine.
Before the tarnado set in, two chill

at single births, making a total of
eight children. The parents are
each 27 years old.-Big Sandy
