Editor Of The Times Dspatch
Sir,-I most heartily approve your lead
ing editorial in to-day's Issue on the sub
jcct OF fairness in the coming primary in
the Democratic party in this State and
would like to add few words to the
views advanced by yourself.
You say: If by trickery. fraud or what
not, the primary Is made TO defeat the
will Ut the majority, the system will re-
ceive a serious et-back, If it does not
receive its death blow" You might have
added that II for such reason the prl-.
mary dies, With Its death will come the
disruption. II not the destruction, Of the
Democratic party Of the State. The peo-.
pie OF the State were willing to cOndone
the use OF corrupt methods that were
considered to be necessary in order to
maintain, white supremacy in Virginia,
but the great majority Of those people
will not countenance corrupt methods
in contests between white men and Dem
ocrats. II the Democratic machinery in
the State adopts methods that result In
fraud and corruption In any form at the
cclvn Ii Knockout blow at the hands OF
the people that will be worse than the
Republican machine In Philadelphia re-
Gently received ut the hands OF tho peo-
Pile of that city.
The old convention and mass meeting
methods got TO be so full Of trickory and
corruption that they amounted 10 the
majority OF the voters. for no matter
how their will was defeated at the con-
yentoi they had no redress, for tho abso-
lutte and unnecessary domination OF tho
Democratic party at regular elections
made 1t worse than useless for them
to kick and vote against the nominees;
thus fraudulently foisted on the party, and
rpk., n III - LII n MI Ia.
against the nominees, 1t could do no good,
With tie election methods u hen in use In tha
State, Under these circumstances the
primary Was adopted, so that In at least
one election every man who voted might
have an opportunity to freely express
Its choice, and be sure that 1t was regis
tered as expressed, and then let the reg
uar election be but a confirmation OF the
choice of the majorty,in tho, primary.
II, thcrefore, the primary wtis not con-
duet fairly there vas absolutely no
place where men y votes could be honestly
counted, and they Weroyin effect dsfran-
chscd.
But with the negro vote practically elm
| mated and the election laws as they now
hic, there Is n chance for an effective
| appeal from corruption In the primary
and that chance Is IN the regular election

ASSURANCE that their votes will De counted
as cast, anu where It is no longer abso-
! iutey necessary that the Democratic
| party should win In order 70 prevent

! tccs that were submitted 10 teh years
1 ago BY white Democrats, because they
had 10 submit to them or run the risk OF
negro supremacy will not be submitted 10
by hem now, even II they have 10 disrupt

And now, in common sense, II the
"father OF the commission" the other
members of the commission anu the
hosts OF men lii Richmond who have
known Judge Curmp from, his boyhood
are satisfied that lie has done no wrong
and has not used his time or position
in the least degree to aid the virginia
Corporation Company, why should he be
condemned by others and asked to retire?
we submit the case to the good sense
and fairness of the Virginia public.

But the thing that can't be doubted or

That the Moros are the awful ignorami.
They don't know a thing of letters. sell

Or IL they do, they've managed not to

But their worst of all offences, TO our

Is: They're paciiied, and simply do not

Long ago, I. Wood, the General, reassur-

President W. M. havanaugh of inc southern Association of Baseball cIubs spent a short while = Birmingham Sat urday night en route from Atlanta to Little Rock. his home. Judge Kayanauph mas been in Atlanta conferring with Charlie Frank Chief Joyner and other Southerh league moguls, with reference to ehe revised southern league schedule

The attendance shows that they deserve the best. but I will show how the situation stands
 All the year l lave been given carte blanch to sign men for either of these teams. Chief Joyner and Mir. Sheppard have both written me and wired me that II l heard of a good man or saw a chance to secure one to 10 ahead and complete the deal. no matter what the cost l know that Atlanta has bidden more for good talent than any team in the league, but good men are simply not on market these days and haven't been since the season opened. New Orleans is now far in the lead with the same team they started with, not through any additions since the season opened. In both the American and National leagues they are retaining all their first class men and in justice to the owners of this and the Birmingham franchise I only want to say that I know they have done all in their power to build up pennant winning teams.
 ''rhe trouble is," continued the Judge, "that people don't seem to realize that there ls eight teams in this race, and that only one of them can win the pen nant. New Orleans has been struggling for years to land first and in spite of their money and efforts have failed ev- cry previous season.
