UPHOLD THE PRIMARY

y It is stated that In case the Dey fac
ton OF Norfolk holds a primary election
excluding the viva voce system OF voting.
there probably will be a revolt among
the Democrats Of that city.
We have nothing to 10 with the men or
measures which are to be decided upon
ut the coming primary In Norfolk. but IN
common with most other Virginia DEM
ocrats we do sincerely hope that full
respect and willing obedience will be
given to the primary election plan as
authorized by the State Democratic con-
vent.on and put forth by the State Com
mittee.
It is OF the utmost Importance that this
plan should be strictly followed. Every
lvariatio from 1t Is likely to bring trouble
and weaken the popularity Of the primary
election plan. In several communities
where the plan has been departed from
trouble and dssension have come upon
the party. The way to prevent this Is tc
adhere to the party law closely, 3E
Next year It will be In order to discuss
amendments to the plan. but now nothine
can be safely done but to adhare to Its
requirements

MISSOURI BooDLlNd.

In recent public address, Governor
Dockery. of Missouri, Is reported to nave
admitted that there had been "boodling''
in the State Legislature, but no argued
that tho boodlors had not robbed tho peo-
rle Of tho State directly, but had simply
"sandbagged" tho franchised corpora
tons. We quote from an exchange;
everything has not gone at tho Cap.
itol us should like to have had It. said
the Governor. There has been some tax
Of boodling. Whatever has been lost II
hasn't cost the people anything, ana me
Democratic party Is not responsible II
safidbagging has been going on-and !!
rear Il has-it has been at the expense OF
the great corporations and other business
interests"
This is perncious doctrine. and is do
morallzing in the highest degree.
The people Of Missouri have double IN
terest in this matter. In the first place.
1t Is ruinous to public morals to concede
that it Is allowable for corporation to
pay out money to legislators or for legis-
Ia tors to recelve It.
In the next place II corporations pay
out such money, the instinct of self-pres-
ervation will require them to recover It
from the people. And this they VIII do by
unduly increasing the prices upon articles
they have to sell or in making rates they
have to charge In short they will see to
1t that they "get even" one way or
another.
We trust we shall soon hear that the
doctrine ascribed to Governor Dockery
is a misunderstanding or misrepresenta-
ton Of his views. How any man OF his
Intelligence and station in life could hold
them Is inexpllcab Bile to us.

Cant, Wise and the Horse Show.

TO the Editor OF the New York Times:
On nv return to New York from Sara
toga my attention has, been called to a
publication in your issue OF Last sunday
August 18th, concerning the Richmond,
va, Horse show Of which am presi-
dent, connecting with It the name Of Mr.,
John S. Wise, OF New York, and to the
effect that owing to social ostractsm ne
had declined to take o box which he had
engaged for the Richmond Horse SHOW,
The story IS a pure fabrication. MT.
Wise never had box In former years
and never engaged one this year. The
only basis for this canard IS as follows:
Mr.. Wise and his whole family are the
warm personal friends OF every member
Of my household. Several months ago, In
my own home invited Mrs. Wise to at
tend, II possible, the next Horse Show
She promised that she would, II possible
T thereupon reserved for her box. We
had but 1902 boxes and there were over
1850 applicants I hold 1t for her as a
special compliment until, In a social let
tor to one of my family. she said she
would not be able to attend tho Horse
Show, as she was about to visit Captain
Hugh Wise, at Sackots Harbor. doubt
II she knew T had until then held a box
for her,
Before heard this the newspapers he'd
asked for the list OF boxhoders, and It
had been given to them. with her name
upon It, but It had not been published
Other changes In the list became neces-
sary, and tho original list first given was
recalled. The necessary changes were
made. omltting Mrs. Wise's name, and
the amended list was returned to the
newspapers without any explanation. for
none was necessary, Out OF this clrcun1-
stance all these outrageous stories have
been manufactured and circulated,
am very much distressed that these
to lse statements concerning Captain Wise
should have been sent out. They have
converted an intended courtesy to Mrs.
Wise into most embarrassing publicity,
