A Coming School center--It is pre-
dicted that it will not be long till Bis
marck will see the establishment
here of an Institution offering a col
legiate, course. When we say long,
we mean IN the course Of a few years.
There is sufficient inducement in evil
dence in the fact that the larger per
cent of young people who are yearly
graduated from our high school must
consider their schooling ended be-
cause of lack of funds to continue
in institutions away from home.
Were a college established here it
would find a good feeder in the high
school, which of course, would not sup
port the college, but it would each
year draw from a large and growing
territory. AS Bismarck is rapidly be-
coming center in business circles,
SO would it in educational. We throw
out these thoughts that they may
be food for reflection and may in the
near future bear fruit.

Shall Majority or a Plurality
Decide Primary Nominations?
BY T. A. JENNINGS, Pensacola.

Pensacola, Fla, June 10, 1906.
Editor Sun, Tallahassee, Fla.
Dear Sir:-YOu have asked me for
my views on the subject "Shall the
majority or plurality decide primary
nOminations?"
If the Democratic Party of Florida
Is to continue to nominate the State
and county officers by primary cleo
tions the majority rule should remain
in force. One fixed and fundamental
principle or doctrine of our party is
that nothing less than a majority
should control. Nominating candi-
dates by plurality vote would most
frequently result in the minority
controlling the party organizations
and nominations. To illustrate. South
Carolina has practically the same
primary law that We have in Florida
and 1t Is reported in the daily pa
pers that there are now eight candi-
dates for Governor in that State. It
Is possible that one of the candidates
may lead all the others and obtain a
plurality, though receiving a fraction
less than IA per cent of the entire
vote cast. That is, less than $4,000
votes out of total of 100000. Such
a candidate might belong to a faction
which would control its party vote
but could not under any circumstances
receive a greater vote-the vote for
MIN representing the entire strength
OF that faction on the leading issue
at stake. The supporters of the
other seven candidates could be of
one mind on this issue but they
would naturally divide their votes
among the seven, each having his IA
Vorite, possibly for other and minor
reasons. In the second primary
those supporting the defeated candi-
dates could unite very properly on
the next highest in the race. the one
receiving Is per cent of the vote for
instance. and nominate him. Tins
winning out on the main question
before the voters.
The sun. (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1905-1908, 1906-06-23

The primary will never prove en-
tirely satisfactory until it Is conduct
ed on a thoroughly fair, bipartisan
basis. 1t must be conducted more
honestly and fairly than the cleo
ton. In the former we are all of
one party-all within one family, rs
1t were-and 1t will not do to resort
to the tactics which, in an election
against the common enemy, are gen.
orally considered good form" We
must remember that, in a primary,
we are fighting neither against the
Republican party nor the fear of ne
gro domination, but are simply sup
posed to be settling among our
selves as to which one of us shall
bet he party nominee, and the man
who honestly gets the most votes
has a right to expect the one who
does not receive quite so many votes
not only to vote for him at the gen.
eral election, but to take the stump
for him II necessary and fight the
common enemy"
That all our primaries are not
conducted in spirit of fairness and
honestly, there is no doubtful the
spirit OF reform which Is sweeping
the entire world, from Russia 10
Florida, will soon force the man who
aspires to public Office to come be-
fore the people with clean hands and
a clear conscience.
The sun. (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1905-1908, 1906-06-23

AT glance we can see the mani,
fest unfairness of the proposition and
the injustice that might be done hv
declaring as the nominee the cand.
date receiving less than $4,000 ont
OF the 100000 Democratic voters
cast.
This illustration of a possible con.
dition in the South Carolina primary
might Apply with equal force to a
primary election in Florida.
The rules and regulations govern
Ing primary elections for nominating
candidates in our State are very sim.
liar to those In Arkansas, MissS.
sippi and South Carolina. A majority
must be obtained by the successful
candidates before they can be de-
clared the party nominees. In all Of
them, however, with the exception Of
the State Of Florida, the party holds
conventions every four years for the
purposes: First, to put out platform,
second, to choose delegates to the
National Democratic Convention, and
third, to select candidates for Presi-
Dental Electors.
am, just here, depressing some
what from the main question which
l have been requested to answer but
| feel that It Is right, nevertheless,
for me to call attention to what I
understand to be a fact, that this IS
the only State in he Union where the
Democratic Party holds no conven-
tions and where 1t is organized so as
to run along perpetually without
adopting any kind of State platform.
Whether 1t is best for the party IN
Florida to have ..ese quadrennial
conventions, as all the other States
above mentioned, and for the specific
purposes just named, the delegates to
the convention to be chosen under
the supervision of the county organ
izations-is a question that can he
more satisfactorily answered after a
few more trials of the present prim-
airy system.

Shall the State Pay the Expenses
of Holding Primary Elections?
BY CHRIS o. CODRINGTTON, DeLand.

DeLand, Fla, June IS, 1906.
Editor The Sun:
In reply to your query: Shall the
state or the candidate pay the ex-
penses OF the primary election?" I
give 1t as my opinion that the candi-
date who dances should pay the
fiddler. The Democratic primary sys-
tenn Is supposed to give every candi-
date an equal chance before the peo-
plea supposition which has never
been laid at the door of a political
convention. most heartily endorse
the primary system, and believe that
a return to the old convention sys-
tenn would be injurious to the party
and against the best interests of the
people Of the State. BY the primary
system, the people of Florida have
been given taste of power the past
four years and they would not relin-
quish this power without great in
jury to the party.
While In complete sympathy with
the primary system, I believe that
some few minor changes are neces-
sary to guarantee its entire success
as q party measure. I believe that
some means should be devised by
which the minority candidate for the
highest State or county officer to be
voted for, could select as one men,
her of the judges Of election some
person friendly to him to act on the
board OF inspectors.

An Appreciated Performance.

F.. p
The late Joseph Jefferson used to
say that his career came very near
being nipped in the bud 4in'a small
western town. He atthat time was
member of a small Pioneer company
which progressed b. means of three
"bull teams" fromFone mining camp
to another. They @ere always heart
lily received by the miners and cow
boys, who readily paid the five dollars
in gold required to witness their per-
formance. Mr.. Jefferson was the ira
ditional melodramatic william, and
in the third act was supposed to kid
nap "the child" The supposed moth
er, hearing its cries, rushes upon the
scene just as he is about to escape,
and fires fruitless shot from re-
volver.
Upon this particular occasion all
had gone we'll until this scene was
reached, and the audience, many Of
whom had never before seen any kind
of theatrical performance, sat as if
spell-bound. At the crack of the
mothers revolver, however, the spell
was rudely broken.
"By heavens, she missed him!" u
rcd-shirted miner in the front row
shouted, drawing his own "six-shoot-
er" and leaping to his feet. Ground
to the back door and head him off
fore he can git hoss, boys!" he
yelled, and, following him, half the
audience stampeded Tor the exit.
The excitement was finally allayed
by the "mother" and the william s
appearing hand in hand before the
curtain, and the managers eXplana-
tion of the situation. When the per-
formancc had been concluded, the all
diencc insisted Oh paying another adj
mission price and having All immedi-
ate repetition from beginning to end.
