The Senatorial Primary.

To the Editor: My attention has been
paper from Mr.. w. W. Zachary, protesting
against the holding of the Senatorial pri-
mary, in which he claims that the same
was never ordered by Democratic State
convention 1t is exceedingly singular
that Mr. Zachary has waited till this
hour to make this point. The Senatorial
primary was reported unanimously by the
platform committee consisting of nine
able men, three of whom l recollect were
Fl. G. Connor. Jas. A. Lockhart and Lee
S. Overman. 1t was one of the planks in
the platform, and just as much part of
the same the approval of the Constitu-
tional Amendment. 1t was adopted by the
convention, and so declared by the gentle
man who was then. and had been for
some hours in the chair, namely, Judge
II. G. Connor, whose life and character
and public services have made his name a
synonym of fairness. Justice and impair
TALLY, and by whom Reed rules" would
never be applied. This primary plank was
printed as a part of the State platform in
the Democratic hand book and was dis
tributed throughout the length and
breadth of North Carolina. Whether it
was wise or not. is now behind us. The
people wanted a Senatorial primary; our
State convention declared for it. and it
must be held. This primary must be fair
and so fair. as to be above suspicion
Let il be distinctly understood that
whatever others may fear, General Julian
s. Carr and his friends are not afraid to
go before the people and let them say
whether he shall receive the Senatorshp
at the hands of the Democratic party

A Fearful Disaster.

By an explosion in coal mine at SEQ.
field, Utah. on Tuesday last, many lives
were lost In the morning 1893 men en-
tered the mine to work and by Wednesday
night $50 dead bodies had been removed,
five or six injured and the others are still
somewhere in the workings underground.
Forty dead bodies were found in one
heap and there is hardly doubt that all
those who are yet in the mine have per-
ished.
1t is almost an impossibility that they
can yet be alive. Comparatively few Of
the men whose bodies have been recovered
were killed by the explosion. The major
ity had no bruises or wounds and had evi-
IDENTIFY met their death by aspbyxiation
caused by the after-damp succeeding the
explosion. The conclusion, however, was
SO great that five men working in the open
air around the mouth of the mine were
severely hurt. One man was blown with
his horse a distance of 200 yards across the
bottom of the canon.
Every house in Scofeld is house of
mourning and every household is preparing
to receive its dead. The employees Of the
mine were mostly American, with a few
Scotch and Welsh. The dead men were
nearly all married Fathers and sons
worked in the mines, and in not a few in
stances families have lost their entire male
membership. One family has lost eight
members. The mine itself is a wreck, and
the loss financially can hardly be estimated.
The disaster was caused by an accidental
explosion Of powder it is thought. This
is the first accident that has occurred since
the mines were opened, over so years ago.

In a Quandary.

The Republican bosses are trying 10 find
the right man for Chairman of their State
Central Committee to succeed Mr.. Shryock,
who has resigned because, as is alleged, OF
bad treatment by Senator McComas. Me-
Comas, it is said, had promised Shryock that
he should be one of the delegates -at-large to
the national convention, and later changed
his mind, in order to satisfy the Eastern
Shore, and at this time McComas seems to be
chief boss of the Republican party in Mary
land. On Monday he called into consultation
with him Congressman Mudd and Judge
Harry NJ. Clabaugh, but it is said no decision
as to the craftsmanship was reached. A COM
petent man is wanted, but not an ambitious
one, as McComas and Mudd do not want to
set up possible rival.

ohace-Holders. Convention.

The Republican National Convention is
likely to be composed la' gely of federal Office
holders, Senators and Representatives-all
Mckinley benefciaries or persons expecting
favors. The people are not in it. 1t is to be
a strictly Hanna Mckinley affair-and the
resolutions will have no words of sympathy
for republic struggling for independence, as
the colonies did, against an imperial power
There will be no reference to the words OF
the Declaration of Independence that all just
governments derive their powers from the
consent of the governed There will be no
reference TO the Monroe Doctrine. unless it
be Mckinley Interpretation of that prinel-
pie. There will be no reference to Washing
toms warming against entangling alliances.
The Hanna Mckinley Administration has had
dreams of empire, large armies and navies, OF
numerous colonies, and are enamored ofim :
perialism. To be successful in fulfilling their
dreams, an understanding with England be-
came necessary at the beginning. That this
has been arrived ut no one doubts, for all
foreign movements of England and the United
States point to it, Therefore there will be no
condemnation of England's course in Africa,
nor any reference to The policies ofthe United
States in the past. The Declaration of lnde-
dence and the Constitution and the Monroe
Doctrine are dead letters with the Hanna
Mckinley Administration. and they are seeing
to it that no discordant spirits get into the
national convention to interrupt the WORK
mapped out for it. Trusty ofice-holders and
expectant Senators and Representatives are
being selected as delegates. so that there will
be no hitch in the plans of Hanna.
