THE STATE COMMITTEE.

The action Of the State Democratic

declare the result OF TIE primary for
State Attorney in the Eighth circuit
without the vote Of Baker county sets
a bad precedent, 10 say the least wall
ton county also failed to send any re-
turns, so why did the committee de-
clare the result for State officers with
out returns from that county? Wal

was to the Eighth circuit in respect 70
nominations. The committees deci'
sion TO require all three cAndidates-

The Jacksonville Times. ULion refers
To an important matter as follows: 1T
is said that an effort will be made to
have the state pay me expenses OF To-
ture primaries held in Florida, on the
ground that the expenses under the
present system are 81 great as to dehar
the poor man from presenting himself
as a candidate. But II the State is TO
pay the expenses Of the primary why
not also pay those Of any political
nominating convention as well? II the
expense OF ascertaining the wishes OF
Democratic voters as TO the ticket they
wish to vote for is to be paid by the
state, why should it not pay the ex-
penses OF ascertaining the Wishes OF
Other citizens who are not Democrats?
The law recognizes at least two other
parties among the citizens OF Florida.
Therefore, the above questions are
pertinent. The State cannot afford 10
pay the expenses OF one class only OF
its citizens, at the expense OF taXpay-
ers who may happen TO differ in pcliti-
cal opinions witt the favored class.
The courts would declare any such pro-
vision unconstitutional. Under the
primary law any party can hold a pri-
mary election"
