WHAT ARE YOU HoL1ER1NG FoR7
We notice that the .reatcr D II ot

we notice that the areatcr Dart ot the

that part OF the state press whose editor.

fiuence and are the most tiioug hllu,, are
very slow in endorsing primary law ,
until they know more about 1t.
Now brethren don't get ON your ears,
the res nothing intended as disparaning
in this remark-and there's exceptions
many in both classes. But we think We
have stated what isSa fact. Aud there's
a reason ior this. The thoughtful men
may see some reason fora change OF
some kind in the e iecuoli laws but they
want TO see what such change may be
before they give unqualified approval.
Primary lawas yet is very indefinite as
