Danger Ahead.

We must write these few W ords
about the state Democratic pri-
mary while momentarily expect
ing the receipt of some news from
several counties that can swing
the result one way or the other.
Although the developments of
the next few days or hours may
dispel such a fear, still we have
the fear that the race is not going
to be settled by the face ofthe re-
turns and that the convention that
is to meet at Hot Springs in June
will be notable for the number
OF contesting delegations that will
knock at its doors.
The ominous mutterings that
are now in the air may be only
the temporary manifestations Of
an interest in the governorship
contest so deep seated and so en-
crossing as to amount to a pass
ion, or they may be something
else.-Gazette,
