TIE INJUNCTION SUI.

The injunction suit now pending
IN the court of appeals to test tue
legality of the primary election
called for May 9 will not be dis
missed, but will be called for trial
April Is. 1t is important to the
present and future welfare of the
party to have the court of last re-
sort pass upon this question on its
merits and decide just how far a
party's governing authority may
proceed contrary to party rHles.
We believe the defendants are max.
ing a serious mistake in resisting
on early adjudication of the ques-
lions raised, and it is to be hoped
that they may even yet consent tc
an advancement. Delay is the fa-
vorite expedient Of the litigant with
a bad cause. In Withdrawing his
opposition in the committee to the
preparations for the primary, while
tied up in the courts, the appellant
has not changed his convictions

The Democratic State Executive
Committee finally came out for a
primary under the Carroll law,
turned down the scheme to put the
machinery 10 the cities in the hands
of especial commission" delegat
ed conduct OF the primary to the
local committees in each and every
county, limited the cost to $40, 900,
each candidate to pay pro rata ac-
cording to the value of the office,
putting any additional expense
upon the successful candidates, de
ferred the adoption of a new plat
form and selection of new commit
tees until 1904, and provided for the
special registration OF unreg istered
Democrats in the cities. While
there is no authority for the latter
provision under the Carroll law, we
assume no objection will be raised
to it, and now that there is no pros
pect OF legal test of the action of
the committee by any candidate or
other person having a property
right, we take 1t there will be no
factious opposition to the commit
tees decree. Certainly there shall
be none from the News-Democrat.
Candidates who are not pleased
or feel that a canvass under such
circumstances would be too burden
some upon them may stay out of the
contest and we presume they will.
We do not expect to see a serious
contest for more than one, possibly
two of the state Offices. We do not
believe any of the candidates, es-
pecially the nominees, will ever re-
gret this primary but once, and
that will be always. We apprehend
the expense will largely exceed the
estimates, but the COM
mittee has finally acted and that
closes the discussion.
We congratulate Judge Lassing,
and the party as well, that his
more conservative ideas finally pre-
vailed in the adoption of the general
Observation-Disclosures.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
In Every Line of Bob TaylOr's
Lecture.

Few events of the present enter
tainment season in Hopkinsville can
claim as much of genuine hearts
interest or happy anticipation as
the lecture next Monday evening at
Holland S Opera House of ex-Gov,
Bob Taylor. 1t is 1.-The Fiddle and
the Bow" of which he will talk, the
lecture that has won him a way
probably to more hearts than any
one lecture has ever achieved for
any one man. There is an infectious,
appealing charm and interest at
tached to this speaker to which
every heart and every mind is ready
and glad to yield. The thousands
who have heard him will attest his
merit as an entertainer. He has
scattered more sunshine and Great
ed more laughter among the amuse-
mentioning people than any man
who has graced the platform with
in the memory of the present gener-
alton. His ideal of an evenings
entertainment is to amuse an audi,
ence with song and story and pict'
ure, and the portrayal of character
Ito hold up the mirror to human
nature, and to light the temple o
thought with windows of fun. T,
him Emusic is the wine of the soul,
and "there is a melody in ever,
sunbeam, sunbeam in every mel
ody."
There can be no question that
will be large and brilliant audi
ence at the Opera House to gree
him Monday evening.
