SHOULD BE DEFEATED

Al va to have been expected, W. II. Kornegay was
Yesterday nominated unanimously as the Democratic
candidate for the constitutional convention from this
tie 5sth. delegate district Mr. Kornegay i an able,
honest man, and would in many ways make good dele
gate There are certain reasons however why he should
not be chosen one of these Is that he s man Of ex-
ceedppy strong preudices and unfortunately his pre-
JUDGES are mostly ID line with those Of southern Demo
cacy, which, needless to say entirely TOO nonprogres
size for such state as Oklahoma viii be.
There ID stronger reason than prejudice, however
whyhe should not Be bechosen He i opposed to the nta
tive and referendum This statement is made u full
knowledge ii e fact that has stated that he fayos
this measure The law he fayo tho, is not the one the
people want: ii is the one the corporations willing
to grant they are compelled grant something IN ord
er to st tie clamor Of the people The power q the
initiative would be sti left under Mr. Kornegays plan
where il Il now With tie legislatures the people would
nave no power to initiate bin which the legislature
should refuse to endorse And everyone knows Mr.
Kornegays temperament well enough to know that he
would not give up this pet plan Or ms IN favor Of real
ntatveand referendum however clearly the defects Of
Ills project should be pointed out to him.
Another reason why Mr.. Kornegay should not be
chosen is that lie not yet declared himself on the
prohibition question: and supposed to DO In harmony
with the Democratic plan Of open saloons in one end Of
the state The people Of this country want law for
the whole state, and that law prohibitions necessarily

election system the only method for keeping con-
troll Of parties in Gle hands Of the people instead Of in
the hands Of tile bosses.
For these reasons, then, Mr. Kornegay should bc de-

resembled a field camp two regiments OF

ligious services. At 10 o'clock I'm the
morning the whole city reverberated with
bells and chimes from St Petersburg's
myriad of cathedrals. churches and
temples, summoning the people to thanks
giving. Only those who have heard the
booming OF the bells OF st. Isaacs cathe-
dral striking base TO the tintinnabua-
tions OF the other belfries can apprecia te
the savage splendor OF the wild clamor.
Not only at St Petersburg. but at the
Kremlin OF Moscow, bells were rung and
TIE Deums were celebrated, thus giving
the occasion the solemn, religious as
well as civic significance necessary TO
impress the Russian masses
While the bells were still ringing the
imperial yacht Alexandra. with the i'm
perial standard at the fore, moved ma
Jestically up the river. dipping her

from the emperors warships lying at the
