In expressing our views in favor Of
primary elections we had no desire to stil
up a controversy. We believe 1t Is easlel
TO manipulate n convention h 1t is L
control a primary election. We hav'
seen a convention stocked" in the in
l. terest OF q certain man who was not tn
choice OF the people. We believe a poo
man has as good a nance Of election IL
this county as a rich man. We know
many Of our county officers have beer
y poor men. There is plenty OF law gov
erning primaries, and honest men shoul
IA see that the law is enforced. We do no
believe there is a man in Lafayette count,
Ie holding office by purchased votes.
