The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1908-02-27

The primary plan adopted is in effect
direct primary, an improvement on
the blanket primary, and yet it is not
the primary which the State Conven-
tion refused to consider. The conven-
tons instructions to the State Commit
tee were to devise a uniform method of
selecting delegates to the conven-
tion, and this it has done while afford
Ing the voter an opportunity of voting
directly for his choice for governor.
Fraud in Ia republican county or in any
county cannot affect the democratic
vote in any other county. The conven-
ton is not delegated convention
in the sense in which they have
been held heretofore, where the
delegates were selected in mass con-
yentions, so called, in which, perhaps,
not over twenty or thirty voters par
ticipated. Not much "mass" about
such conventions. The people want
no more snap conventions.
Nor snap primaries. The Carmack
plan provided for primary May %.
This would have been really q snap
primary. Governor Patterson had an
nounced that he could not, in Justice
to his official duties, enter the cam
paign before April 1. Under the Car
mack plan this would have given him
less than two months, only a month
and half of working days, in which
to make campaign. Mr.. Carmack
has been an avowed candidate for
months, and has had ample time for
prosecuting his campaign in many
ways, which he has done. The snap
convention and the snap primary will
not be tolerated. -American.

A Great Battle Promised.

The keynote of Gov. Patterson's an
nouncement for second term is found
in this paragraph: "If / have been
faithful to the trust of the people and
my administration of state affairs has
been successful and meets with your
approval, | shall be glad to receive an
Endorsement, and if not, | am content
to retire to public life." This indicates
the lines upon which Gov. Patterson
will pitch his campaign, He will as
sert that he has been faithful to the
trust imposed in him by the democracy /;
that his administration of state affairs
has been successful; that when demo.
crat makes a success of one term he is,
under precedent, entitled to @ second
term, or rather an Endorsement of his
course. We may add that if Gov. Pat
terson, in his campaign, convinces the
people that he has been faithful to the
trust and that his administration has
been successful, he will be reelected.
The position he takes in this particular
is one that no man can successfully as
sail. Gov. Patterson declares in an.
other part of his announcement that he
can not begin his campaign before the
first of April, when he will give an &C.
count of his official conduct and meet
his opponent in joint discussion. Re.
ferring TO some of his offices, the gov
ernor says that they have been both
unkind and ungenerous, which is a
fact. A great deal of the criticism
which the more rabbi supporters of
Senator Carmack have INDUCED of
Gov. Patterson would have been better
left of. Factitious, i'll considered crit
characterization merely for the sake of
finding fault-serves no good purpose

Governor Announces,
To the Democracy of Tennessee:

TO the Democracy of Tennessee:
| shall ask an Endorsement of nv ad-
ministration by the people, and hereby
announce that | am candidate for
governor to succeed myself, subject to
the action of the democratic party.
The duties of the office which | have
tried to fir to the best of my ability
have been both laborious and exacting.
If bave been faithful to the trust of
the people, and my administration of
state affairs has been successful and
meets with their approval, shall be
glad to receive an Endorsement, and, if
not, am content to retire to private life.
! shall not be ready to begin a cam
paign until about the LIST Of April, and
will then give an account of my official
conduct, answer the critics who have
never ceased to wage an unfair and un-
generous warfare since first became a
candidate for governor, aud meet my

That was a terrible invasion of popu-
lar rights when the committee AFRO
gated to itself the function of naming
ing election officers in each county
from lists furnished by the candidates
for governor. 1t is simply horrible,
likewise diabolical, to think that Car.
mack and Patterson should have the
privilege of selecting the friends who
are to officlate at the ballot boxes in
the primary especially as it has been
claimed that three-fourths of the com
mittees were chosen by the partisans
of the late John Isaac and are favor
able to Carmack. No doubt the gov.
ernor's opponents felt competent to
take charge of the whole thing and run
it to suit themselves that is exactly
what they wanted to do. Nashville

The Carmsck primary plan provided
that the county committees should
select the election officers but of course
he was not influenced by his belief that
his friends controlled a majority Of
the committeeG. Had this plan been
adopted perhaps in no county in the
state would there have been an equal
division of the officers, the friends Of
one or the other candidates for COVER
nor would have predominated, accord
ing to the complexion of the commit
tees.

whatsoever. Tennessee has in Gov.
Patterson and Mr.. Carmsck two really
strong men. The present generation
Of Tennesseans have not witnessed such
a cam paign for governor as this is 60
ing to be. 1t will not be child's play,
but combat on the stump between q
couple of men who are recognized for
intellectual strength and statesmanlike
qualities throughout the length and
