The New Primary Law.

There will be lamentstion in the
ranks Of the old-time Missouri
politicians when they fully realize
that the last state nominating con-
vention has been held, and that
there is an end to midnight eau
cusing and slatemaking on the
eve of conventions. Under the
present primary law it will not be
more than ten years until there
will be very few men in the state
who will have anything like a
state acquaintance, for it destroys
the means of forming acquaintan-
ces and promoting fello W s hi p
which the convention system af-
forded. The primary law will
have to undergo numerous changes
before it lie made perfect. With
half Q dozen candidates in the
field q combination of the vicious
and special interests will be able
to secure q plurality nomination
for governor for q man the very
opposite Of the kind Of man whom
the people want. Fulton Gazette,

The Montgomery tribune. (Montgomery City, Mo.) 1892-1910, 1907-05-10
Writes Himself Down a Hypoorite.

oN
The TRIBUNE week before last
tried to remind the Standard man
that he, like most "negro baiters,"
was talking political bunoomb last
winter in defending the Jim Grow
car bill, because they are the very
people who just simply have to
have a lot of negro servants"
around whether or no-Jim Grow
cars or no Jim Crow cars.
Our charge is that the average
advocate of the bill ia inconsistent.
We have ne objection to the
southern man having as many
negro servants as he chooses. If
his food must be prepared by ne
gros, and if they must stand yer
him with fan in hand, while he
eats, he should not be so severe on
the northern man whom, as he
alleges, often eats at the same ia
BILE with negros. Of course there
r always ours who will bite the
hand that feeds them, but if the
infant negro batter could stand it
to nurse on the bosom of a black
"mammy" when his mother was
ill, or for other reasons, he should
not make such wry faces, if, by
the irony of fate, he should chance
to sit by her side, in In excursion
train, Immigrant train or street
car. Besides, the house where he
first saw ''the sun come peeping
in at morn" no doubt had few
windows while the chair cars all
have at least one window to every
two passengers.
The Standard says Democrats
always treat the negro like a de-
cent human being when he be-
HAYES himself. Is that so? This
statement in itself is conclusive
proof that it played, as we charge,
the hypocrite. The Standard
man was so proud (?) of his con-
nection with the wedding of this
worthy negro couple that he for
got to mention it as a news item
in his paper.
