This week Guilford has made 4S6

Mondays Primary

Because the voting on Monday is
confined to democrats, let no one think
it is a free-and-easy family affair. 1t
is strictly an official matter, recognized
in the constitution of 1901, and gov
erned by provisions in the general
election law of the state. The vote of
any person who goes to the polls on
Monday may be challenged, and when
a vote is thus called in question 1t
becomes the duty of the managers of
the primary to require from the chal-
lenged man an oath covering the
grounds of the challenge This the
managers must do before they can le-
gally accept the ballot of the man who
has been challenged.
Besides residence and poll tax pay
ments and registration a man must be
a democrat in order to have a right to
vote in Mondays primary. Any person
who opposed the nominees of the dem
ocratic party in the last state and con-
gressional election or voted against
any of them, is not qualified to vote In
the coming primary. His vote may be
challenged on that ground, and the val
idity of his democracy then and there
be tested. Party loyalty is, In other
words, needfuI on Monday, and in that
respect the primary differs from the
election in November
The election law of the state holds
the managers of primary to strict ac-
countability for all their acts. They
may be punished for wrongful acts just
as election officials may be, and man
who swears falsely when his vote has
been challenged is guilty of perjury.
The entire primary on Monday will be
held under the protection and terms of
the law, and it is in every respect an
important and official proceeding. AS
such it should be carefully conducted
and duly respected. ~

REPORTS ON NEW LAW.
Insurance Subcommittee Has Drafts
of Bills for Uniform Legislation.

st. Paul, August 24.-"The commit
tee of fifteen" insurance commissioners
of various states now holding a meet
ing at the state capitol here received
reports of subcommittee today and
approved drafts of bills for uniform
legislation.
The report of the committee on mis-
representations, including the draft or
a bill, was approved. The draft as pre-.
scented included this section:
mo life insurance corporation, off,
Ger, director or agent shall issue or cir
culate any estimate, illustration, cir
cular or statement in any part misrep-
resenting the terms of any policy is
sued by 1t or advantages promised, or
the dividends or shares of surplus to
be received thereon, nor shall any COM
pany use any title of policy. or claim of
policies, disappearing the true ma
ture thereof"
The committee on investments, H.
r. Prewitt, Benjamin F. Grouse and
Edward T. Young, presented the bill,
in part Of copy of the New York law
designating what investments shall be
allowed.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1906-08-25

circumstances are different. In New
York a contest between the two par
ties takes place after nomination. In
Alabama all is decided in a primary
election of a single party. but if the
state democratic executive committee
would discourage premature canvass
ing, and the people would demand a
short campaign, an end could be put
to those a year long. The indifference
of the people this year is due in good
part to the length of the campaign. It
has been so long that the people have
largely ignored meetings and appeals
for votes. 1t has been expensive, too,
to aspirants. A campaign before a
state primary should not, need not, ex-
coed ninety days, and the lesson Of the
campaign now nearly ended points
that way.

100000 WILL Be
GIVEN FOR RELIEF

Santiago, Chill, August 24.-The Chilean
senate was in session today in the diree-
tors room of the gas company, and ap-
propriated 100000 for the relief of the
distressed inhabitants.
A committee was appointed to examine
into the question of granting amnesty to
those imprisoned for slight offenses.
The government has decided to purchase
cattle for the sufferers in the northern
provinces. Three steamers loaded with
coal have arrived at Valparaiso. which
will go far to relieve the situation at the
gas works and other places growing out
of the lack of fuel. 1t is said that over
800 men have been shot by order OF the
military authorities at Valparaiso for COM
hitting robberies. All the schools will
remain closed until October. The school
buildings are being used for the accom-
mediation of earthquake sufferers.
The Valparaiso railroad has re-establish-
ed traffic as far south as Gillian, and 1t
is hoped that traffic on the lines south
and north will be completely re-establish-
ed before August %.
