Primary Election Plan.

A copy of the following circular has been
sent by its author to each one of the judges
of the Democratic primary election in this
county:
Sir Sec. Primary Election Plan pub
lished by the State Central Committee as
the law designating qualifications of voters
for the primary elections, says:
"Only such registered voters of this coun-
ty as voted for the candidates of the Demo-
cratic party at the Presidential or Guberna-
torial election next preceding any primary
election shall be allowed to vote
at any primary election"
AS applied to the coming primary cleo
ton, in view of the fact that the hext pre-
ceding general election was the presidential
election of '96, this means that unless voter
voted for Bryan then he cannot vote in our
primaries now.
Will you, therefore, kindly advise me il
you will apply this rule strictly in your con
duct of the coming primaries, excluding all
Mckinley and Palmer and Buckner voters
from participating.
political responsibility attaches to each
individual. Unless we are politically alert,
unless we are politically honest, we are cor
rupters OF public opinion" and impair one
OF the forces that make men politically
honorable.
l would be glad to know in rely II you
hold with me in my Interpretation of sec
ton s, and if there is any reason to interfere
with the strict enforcement of the same al
your primary election.
Very respectfully,
CHAs. r. DARBY.

He came into our world to view,
A sample of our misery,
Then turned away his lovely eye
To drop tear or two and die.
He tasted of life's bitter cup,
Refused to drink the potion up,
But turned his noble head aside
Disguised with the taste and died.
He listened for while to hear
Our mortal griefs, then turned his ear
TO angels harps and songs, and cried
To join their notes celestial, sighed and died
Dear boy no more-but seraph now
Before the Throne behold him bow,
His soul enlarged TO angel size
Joins in the triumphs OF the skies,
Adore the grace that brought him there.

In memory OF Mrs. Henry Williams, who
departed this life one year ago, June ~
1893, aged "a years. Dead, but not forgotten
Her busy hands are folded,
Her work on earth Is done;
Her trials are all ended,
Her crown in heaven is won.
The midnight moon is shining
Upon her silent grave;
She sleeps, and we cannot wake her,
The one we could not save.
Oh chide US not for weeping,
For sorrow shades our brow,
She has gone from US to Heaven,
We have no grandma now.
