PRIMARY ELECTION FOR SENATOR'S.

Wehster's Weekly.
We think that November primary is the
solution of the problem 1t removes the tempt
alton TO manipulate conventions in the interest
of any candidate. Ii turns the whole re-
sponsibilty TO the sovereign people from whose
decision there can be no appeal. 1t puts all the
candidates on>ther mettle. 1t serves notice on
them that the ewes OF the people upon them,
and the man who does most for the success OF
the amendment and the election of Bryan will
stand the best show at the ballot box. 1t means
that all will do their best. and when the peope,
have expressed their preference, the defeated
candidates will feel that they have had far
chance and will have no scores TO settle IN the
future. With this settled, it makes no difference
whether Simmons men or Carr men. or JARVIS
men or Waddell men, are nominated Tor the
Legslature-they will vote for the man VINO
gets the endorsement of the people, and besides
it will eliminate any possibility OF unseemly
struggles TO nominate in the county conventions
the friends of this that candidate for the
Senate. This will unity the party. The failure
to provide for primaries in 1886 cost the party
thousands of votes. Let not the folly of that
year be repeated.
Messrs. Simmons, Carr, Jarvis and Waddell
have each publicly expressed their approval OF Il
primary. Since they agreed as to its advisa-
bility why should the friends OF any OF them
oppose it? Why seek to have the State conven-
ton nominate candidate; when the people H ,i ia
ferent aspirants? Events may happen between
now and November which will fave an impor-
tant bearing upon the contest.
mitted to the election of United States Senators
by the people. Let the spirit of the platform
be carried out
Not only do we favor the settlement of this
contest by primary election. but we hold
that all nominations should be made in the same
manner. 1t is the only way the party can be
held together after the OF negro rule
has been removed. 1t has made the party in
yinciblc in South Carolina Georgia and Mississ-
ippi. So great is the interest felt in the pri-
mary election in these States that the vote al
WAYS greatly exceeds that cast in the regular
State election. A plan that makes the individual
Democratic voter feel that one mans voice goes
dates; that requires no knowledge of parliament
tary law and leaves no room for the wire puer
to get in his work-this plan should commend
consideration of fairness, party policy and the
good of the State, demands that it shall be in
augurated in the senatorial election this year
1t will remove all friction from the amendment
campaign a dninsure full vote at the November
election.

RISING TO THE OCCASION

When William Goebel was assassinated
by the Republican party of Kentucky at
the command of the Louisville and Nash
Vile Railroad, and when Taylor, the al
legged governor, resorted to expedients so
tyrannical as to call down upon his head
the condemnatione the men of all par
ties whose opinion is worth considering,
we took occasion to point out that the
whole miserable business was the per-
fectly legitimate fruit of government by
the Republican party as it exists in the
South. Every passing day has but served
to confirm us in the opinion that we
therein did the Republican party of the
South no injustice.
An excellent case in point was the
action of the Republican party of Geor-
gia which has solemnly declared for Taylor
or Bradley for second place on the Ma
tionaI Republican ticket. From whatever
point of view this may be regarded. it is
a remarkable and significant spectacle.
1t is fine ear-mark for Southern Repub-
gent citizens of this country believe, or
rather recognize, that Taylor was morally
responsible for one of the most heinous
crimes that has ever shocked civilized
men. Every man with sufficient political
acumen to get nominated for constable
knows that no ticket with Taylor's name
on it could carry half dozen States in
this Union. The National Republican
convention would not dare touch him with
the far end of a trans continental rail-
way. Even as it is every Republican who
has his ear to the ground is cursng the
day Taylor was born and striving with
might and main to make the country for
get him. Behold, in the face of this
situation, the astute Georgia Republican
rise up and demand Taylors nomination
for the Presidency.
What shall be said of political party
whose aggregate brains come to no more
than that? What is to be expected of
political party that goes out of it's way
to endorse political assassination?
There is absolutely no hope for the Re-
publican party of the South. Without
sense and without morals, it is the only
aggregation of human beings on record
that has known just enough to do wrong
always and that has persstently declined
to be taught either by experience, exhor-
tation or example, how to do right when
its own advantage lay in doing right.

Mr., nc London For State Treasurer
(Franklin Press. }

After writing an editorial last week i'll favor OF
Hon. H. A. London for State Treasurer, the
press was pleased TO see in the Raleigh papers
the announcement that Mr. London would be
candidate for the nomination. Mr.. London de-
serves the nomination because he possesses every
qualification necessary for the office; because as
an editor of a Democratic party for twenty
one years he has welded a powerful influence
for the interests OF Democracy; because 1t is
high time that the press should be honored by
having one of its members fill responsible state
office; because he is political speaker able to
campaign with any competitor the Republican
PARTY can put out His nomination by the State
convention should be unanimous.

COTTON FROM TWO VIEWPOINTS.
The Philadelphia Manufacturer.

The favorable conditions now ruling in respect
of cotton mill property in the South afford
the greatest announcement to investors. The

true, almost fabulously so-lnd enormous sums

business in the South during the next few years.

which nobody can stop, for capital always seeks
