Primaries having been called in ev-
cry instance, to choose candidates to
be voted for in the coming November
election for State and district offices,
we cannot see any good reason for d
departure from this rule Ia the First
Railroad District, and We heartily in
dorse the sentiment contained in the
following taken from the Kentucky
Journal:
There are reports that conven-
ton will be named by the powers that
be to nominate a candidate for rail-
road commissioner in the first dis
trict. We cannot see the reason for
this in these days of primary cleo
tions, conceded to be the fairest of
methods yet devised to nominate. par
ty candidates. The State officers were
nominated by primary. A primary has
been ordered in Judge Lassing's ju-
dicial district to name a candidate
for the succession as Circuit Judge,
and in his appellate district to name
his successor on the bench of the
Court of Appeals. In this railroad
district a primary has likewise been
ordered. If the primary is a good
thing for all of these, we cannot See
why it is not good in the first district

Fruit Crop Not Injured.

1t was thought by some that the
few weeks had injured the peach and
pear crops and some anxiety was felt
for the safety of the fruit crop follow
ing the recent cold snap.
Several people have made a through
investigation of the young buds, Or
chard owners say that fruit has es-
capped injury so far and the present
indications point to large yield.

Nashville, Tenn, Feb, l6.-The SUI

carrying a pistol under a hack seat

guilty of carrying a concealed weapon
as if it were concealed about his per-

court, to prevent the carrying con-
cealed of pistols so that they could be

The one thing that has struck me

The people of the East have 10
right to attribute our desire to main

hatred, protests the San Francisco

or nation is more sure of protection
in this city, so far as official author
ity or the desires of the decent peo-
pile can give it than the japanese
who are now here. We do not want
them here in large numbers because
we find by experience, as white men
in Hawaii have long since found, that
we cannot maintain the American
standard Of comfort for the masses
of our people in the face Of the COM
petition of an Industrious race which
has a lower standard Of life. If they
come, white men who compete with
them must live as they do. Wher-
ever in America they go that will be
found true. Therefore, we do not
want them. But when here, and
while here, they are entitled not only
to all the protection OF the law. but
to respectful and decent treatment
generally. And this they get, and
any one who says otherwise does it
