Editor acknowledged:
In your issue Of MAY 9Th, yor
print an article headed "Mr. Noel!
Claims, which is calculated to Dc
hlman injustice, and at the same time
do violence to your sense Of fairness
Quoting from an extract from the
Lucedale Plaindealer commencing
Mr.. Noel for what he had done fo1
the primary election law, and for his
position on the elective judiciary,
you say, THAT may be one of the
reasons why Mr.. Noel gets 10 more
votes when he runs for a State office,
and then you proceed to criticise
both Of these measures.
As a matter of fact, Mr.. Noel has
only been a candidate for State office
once, and that was four years ago
when he ran for Governor, and re.
ceived about 24,000 votes in the
State. When it is remembered that
Mr.. Noel had never been a candi-
date before for a State office, and
that his opponents four years ago
had canvassed the State once or
twice befor for the same office, Mr.,
Noel's vote was highly ~hattering to
him, and was but a little less than
that received by his opponents.
If the primary election law is so
obnoxious, it is just a trihe singular
that no candidate now running for
Governor, or any other State office,
has publicly advocated its repeal.
On the contrary, SO far as | know,
they have openly favored and APP
proved this law, and the same is
equally true Of their advocacy of an
elective judiciary. The primary
election law is here to stay. The
people favor it. and no candidate
opposes it. Successive legislatures
have approved it, and have amended
it with no suggestion of its repeal.
Having been endorsed by the people
and the legislatures, and now favor
ed by all the candidates who oppose
Mr.. Noel, it would appear that no
further endorsement is necessary.
Yours truly, w. P. TACKETT.
