Our belief that only fraction of the
Democratic voters of the city would
attend primaries made us feel that
ward meetings held in roomy quarters
would afford ample accommodation
Tor the interested public.
The argument that prevailed was
that to choose Norfolk's delegates by
any other than the primary plan
might be construed as opposition to
the primary principle and system.
We DO rot see how this could have
been the case when the State Central
Committee, which favors the system.
ruled at it's last meeting that local
authorities might omit primaries. if
they chose, in providing for the sc.
lection Of delegates to the State Con-
vention. The Landmark is a believer
10 the primary principle in many of
It's phases, but we do think that
there Is strong tendency to run it
INTO the ground by burdening it
with all sorts of minor functions.
1t the present drift continues. we
shall soon be having elections once a
week.

WHlSkEf TRIAL-NEwS ITEMS, ETC.
On Wednesday Of last week
one Wade Pembroke, bar-keeper
on the Coan river steamer Nor
thnmberland, was before the
throne of Justice Eichelberger for
violating local option laws at Lodge
wharf. The fine was $50 and cost.
Clarence S. Towles, common wealth's
attorney, was present looking after
the interest of the Common
wealth. Too much credit cannot be
given him for the interest he has
taken in bringing this offender to
justice. He drove from Reedville
to Lodge and Heathsville four or
live times looking up evidence, ETC.,
and finally succeeded in landing his
man. If all officials would display
the same energy and perseverance
the sale of liquor, illegally, would be
greatly minimized.

course, foreseeing any of the dissen-

Carter Harrison, Of Chicago, as ex-
cellent timber for first or second

PRIMARIES FOR THE CHOICE
OF DELEGATES.
lNorfolk LQR9marE.N

After considerable discussion of
the pros and cons, the City Demo
cratic Executive Committee Wednes-
day night decided to hold ward
primary elections in Norfolk next
Monday from noon to p. m. to
select delegates to the State Demo
cratic Convention, which meets at
Richmond Thursday, June 9Th.
We do not believe that the Demo-
Gratis of the city will attend in force
three elections in less than month,
but we have no other objection to
the choice of delegates at a primary.

The barkeeper on steamer Nor
cumberland was arrested and fined
$50 and costs in Northumberland for
selling liquor while at wharf in
that county. We believe the river
steamboat men are pretty generally
acquainted with the local option laws
OF these counties, and usually con-
form to them, but where there is
ATTRACTION they should be summary
dealth with. 1T is charged that our
laws avail naught while the bars are
permitted on the steamers, but we
fail to learn of any specific violations
around here, though there is much
inuendo and limiting.

To THE distress of many ardent
Democrats factional differences in
this State will not down. If we are
to believe the daily press the State
Convention now in session in Rich
mond is more interested in the fu-
tare U. S. Senatorial campaign than
in electing delegates or doing any
thing else pertaining to the Presiden-
tial campaign. 1t would seem that
the Montague Martin fight isalready
on-the former to get a higher
job, after sampling the best the
State had to give. and the latter to
hold down the seat he already has.
Some agitators, particularly news
papers, have wrung up the people,
and it is "Lay on Macduff" with a
vengeance. Watch the issue, nearly

The following delegates were elect
ed in Richmond county Saturday
before last to attend the State Con-
vention assembled in Richmond this
week. F. NJ. Hutchinson, T. d.
Marks, Hon. w. A. Jones, Joseph
W. Chinn, jr., DR.. Is. A. Middleton,
b. b. Griffith and j. M. Lyell.
The Roanoke Times, which does
not easily forget, says: "Mr. Quay
fought with German to kill the last
Federal force bill that was seriously
considered by Congress, and fought
it to its death. This service on the
part of Pennsylvania dead Senator
deserves always to be remembered
with appreciation aud gratitude
throughout the South"
State Senator w. p. BarksdaIe, of
Halifax county, who some time ago
announced that he would be a caudi-
date for Congress from the Sixth
District in opposition to Hon. Carter
Glass, has withdrawn from the race.
This means that Mr.. Glass will be
declared the nominee of the party,
and that his only opposition will
come from Mr.. S. Harris Hoge, the
Republican candidate, nominated
several weeks ago.
DR.. Parkhurst says he is so good a
Republican that he wants the party
whipped this fall for its own advan-
tage. His opinion of Roosevelt is
thus expressed: "For good, sunshiny
weather, when there is Just a fair
breeze, he is first-rate captain, but
for a storm / would rather have
something different. The wider orr
relations with the world, and the
more there is a general likelihood of
complications with other nations, the
greater the Importance of having a
Chief Executive who moves carefully
and who shows circumspection."
There is an old adage that a cat
has mines lives. Granting the abso-
Lutte truth of it. the feline will have
to yield in this matter of tenacious
existence to Hon. Stephen Grover
Cleveland. In proof of which, wit
ress the following from Columbus,
Ohio: ACTIVELY, if not openly, an
effort is being made for a national
delegation which will support Grover
Cleveland. The old guard is coming
in. Men who held postoffices under
Cleveland, and all who were connect
ed with Federal patronage at that
time have business in Columbus Just
now. Harlan Cleveland, the distant
relative of the former President, may
be permanent chairman of the con-
vention. Men who have not been to
conventions for years are here and
quietly hustling. Their slogan is
mo Endorsement" for to attempt to
get instructions for Cleveland would
precipitate riot. Men have declared
here that they would vote the Repub-
lican ticket if Cleveland were nomi-
mated, but his secret service is
unafraid. for they do not ask that
delegates be avowed Cleveland men,
but simply that if opportunity for
his nomination arrives that they
swing to him."
Mr.. Cleveland has killed himself
easily nine times. In addition to
that, ne has killed his party twice.
And yet, despite it all he survives as
a prophet-stuffed, of course-and
measurable factor in national poll
tics.--M0rfolk Pilot.

Senator Barksdale, who is candidate
Tor Congress in the Sixth district. saws
that he is a Martin man and that he is
opposed to the primary, but that he can
not see how his advocacy of Senator
Martin has anything to do with his con-
test for Congress-. Very true indeed and
the Senator might have added, or with
his position on the question of a primary.
Ar. Barksdale does not impress us as a
man that is likely to be controlled by
Senator Martin or anyone else against
hIs will, and that he is opposed to the
primary is his own affair. exclusively.
and for which he is alone responsible to
hs constituency. So far, he has evinced
no disposition to shirll any responsibility
an this matter. Certain it is. Mr.. Martin
as not thekeeper of his political conscience.
-Pefersdurg Indeo-Appeal.
This sums the matter up very con-
cisely. Even though Senator Martin
favors the primary is no reason why
all his friends. or even a majority of
them, shoulddo so. This fact argues
we'll for the Martin element as the
free-thinking one in Virginia politics.

Friday, June 10, 1904.

And Mr.. Tom Martin, the gentleman
who so unexpectedly and surreptitiously
obtained seat in the L. S. Senate in
1893, again hobs up and says he "favors
the primary" Hal hal hall Since he
can't have his way, he is willing to fall
in line with the "May Conference.-The
people-S0uth Boston Necs.
Now our friend, Parson Beazely,
certainly is getting antiquated. But
We are not going to quarrel with him
over his delving with dead bones.
Nor yet with his view as to who the
"people" are. Just here with us they
can't see the primary in the light
that some Southern Bostoniaus do.
For example: Almost of the precincts
in this county on last Saturday it was
difficult to get enough Democrats
out to organize the meeting for the
election of delegates-a chairman
and secretary. At one precinct a
lone patriot strutted out, coaxed
another who was playing ball to join
him for few minutes and the two
organized the meeting. After some
waiting two more happened to pass
that way, were caught on the fly and
the four elected the delegates to the
Richmond convention. AS we say,
this was the case at several precincts
In this county, and Lancaster was
no exception as far as we learn. Had
1T been an all-day primary, with the
viva voce or ballots in use, not
enough men could have been pro-
cured at some precincts to have
opened and conducted the polls.
A mass-meeting at Lancaster
Courthouse meant never less than
four hundred voters in attendance
ana otten reaching to six hundred.
Tell us, please, which voiced the
peoples sentiment? The weather
may be little too vexing to deal n
discussion, but the matter is offered
as food for reflection to the South
Boston Netcs. Since reading the
"Object Lesson" on the Roanoke
anti-primary coup in Sundays Times
Dispatch our Richmond friend also
might wish to ponder Lancaster facts.
