Who Can Vote in the Democratic
Primary.

81 am d democrat and pledge
myself to support the nominees OF
this primary"
This is the pledge that will be
printed at the head of every tick.
ct, that is voted and counted in
the Democratic Primary to be
held on Saturday, May Bird 1902
The meaning Of this pledge is
very plain, and there is no chance
to misconstrue it. Except,
that the voter must be n white
man and u democrat, at the time
of voting, and will support the
nominees of the primary in the
November election, there is no
restriction.
No matter what ticket was
voted last election, if the voter is
white man and democrat at
the time of the primary, and is a
legal voter he has rightito vote
and his ballot will be counted.
A LEGAL VOTER
A legal voter is male, II
years of age at the November
election, who will have been in
the state II months and the
county 8 months at said cleo
ton. The state, by it's laws,
regulates who shall vote in gen.
eral elections, but the Democrat
ic Executive Committee regulates
who shall vote ut the primaries.

There Is strong sentiment
in Texas in favor of the constitu.
tional amendment to be voted on
at the November election, which
will make the payment of poll
taxes a qualification for voting.
In other words, to restrict the
franchise privilege to those who
can produce a poll tax receipt.
If the law would serve the pur-
pose its advocates intend, it
would be very well TO adopt it,
but the writer had occasion to
keep tab" on an election a few
years ago in a state where this re-
striction on voters existed, and
since that time we have been I'M
alterably opposed to any such
system. As the advocates of the
law charge, there are a certain
class of voters who have no more
interest in elections than the dol
lars, drinks, ETC., they can pull
out of candidates. But this is
not sufficient reason for taking
the ballot away from even one
good citizen, who, for any rea-
son finds himself on election day
without a poll tax receipt. And,
we are among those who believe
that no government can afford to
do wrong, even to the smallest
minority of citizens.
In the state election referred to
above, u constitutional amend
ment was voted on which affect
ed the privileged and wealthy, as
well as corrupt few, and this
same floating, salable vote was
used to great advantage to defeat
an amendment that would have
been of much benefit to the state.
The way it worked was about as
follows: Sums of money were
placed in the hands of men who
could use it to best advantage,
the floating element was all duly
registered, their receipts were paid
for by the hundreds, and their
votes went IN as the man who
paid the poll taxes wanted them
to go, and the objects of the best
citizens were defeated by a good
majority.
Why, if Texas adopts this
amendment and passess law in
conformity Herewith, can not
the same scheme be worked in
many places and the very object
the apologists for the amend
ment are seeking be defeated?
Every, citizen, no matter how
poor, if he earns his living under
our system of Federal taxation,
contributes his mite to the sup
port of the government, and it
follows that no majority has the
right to deprive him of the right
of suffrage. ..

A DEADLY cLoUDBURsT.

Six Lives Lost and Great Damage
 Done Tn Cincinnati and Vicinity.
 CINCINNATI, O., May 21.-A terrific wind and rain storm, accompanied by a waterspout. swept oyer this locality yesterday, causing the loss of six lives and injuring many others. The fury of the storm continued only thirty min utes, but the damage wrought in that time will amount to more than $1000,- 900 in the business section of Cincin nati and as much more in other parts of the city and its suburbs.
 It is also learned that there has been a terrific waterspout on the Lewisburg hills, in the southern suburbs of Coy ington, Ky, and it moved over the Kentucky suburbs into this city, pass ing up the Miami valley, with damages reported as far as Dayton, O. While storm damages are reported through out Kentucky, the worst point seems to have been in the suburbs of Covington where there was a waterspout. The water rolled down the hills in a wave twenty feet deep at places and about a hundred yards wide. The frame house of Edward Wohrley was carried away for distance of over four blocks and finally dashed to pieces in the Cov- ington ball grounds. The house was occupied by four families. or these Mrs. Blaehner and Willie Willen were drowned. The others narrowly escaped.
 All the towns opposite Cincinnati suf- fered damage from broken windows and houses being unroofed, but the greatest damage on both sides of the river, especially to the business houses in Cincinnati, and also in Covington and Newport, Ky, came from cellars being suddenly filled with wateE

The score stood to 2 in favor of the Freshmen. The Freshmen went up in balloon ascen- sion during the last few innings and the Sophomores had an easy time In scoring. Fitzpatrick of the winning team and Guilfoile were prominent in making errors. The pitching of Moran for the SopRomores was of the gilt edge variety. He struck out many Freshmen and gave only few hits. Daly was the only Freshman who was able to hit him to any account Cap tain O'Brien feels jubilant over the re- suit of the game and sees a clear path to the pennant.

The fin ish of the race was close, and the American jockey received an ovation from the crowd.

 Berlin, May 21 .--s'Major" Taylor, the colored cyclist whose riding last year, when he beat all the German champions, was q source of ;iilaze- ment here, is doing poorly this season.
 Taylor was beaten Monday by Ar end, and today he failed to qualify in the trial heats for the final of a long distance contest, which was won byArend. It seems that Taylor was pocketed in the preliminary.
 Mail advices from Paris concerning the race between Jacquelin and Iyer Lawson at the Pare des Princes on May s, say that while Jacquelin as the winner was applauded it was not with the enthusiasm that lis applause has usually. The spectators apprecias. ed the disadvantage lnder which Law con was riding He did not want to race. He had been off the steamer only a week or two and was not in condition. He knew it and yet was forced into the race. Jacquelin won in two straight heats from Lawson. And yet the friends of the friends of the American in New York are almost arrogant in their belief that a little later Lawson will make the French champion look cheap.

 There is no team in this league that has any license to defeat Waterbury when the last two games are taken into consideration. In Ihe game yesterday it was demonstrated that Meriden was not in her class ae all. John Waller, Jr, was the star or the game yesterday and did what no other pitcher in this league has yet accomplished. He has shut out two teams so far this season, Bridgeport and Meriden and each team Dy tne same score. 5 to O. There was but one man on the AIeriden team that could find the scarlet topped twirler for more than one hit and that was Altiser. Only two of the others found him for singles and when you consider that Ieriden has been SprOuting some or late and talking of winning the pen nant, it was a pretty feat for the Junior John of the Waller family. Waterbury did not hit Bobby Durnbaugh very hard at that and only eight hits were made off his delivery and one or two of those were very punky. Our hits were all we'll placed and. that is what counted. The locals played well in the field too, and but two errors are charg- ed up against us. AIeriden was a lit tie more unfortunate in this respect and doubled us on errors. The score and summary:
