Our Democratic local ticket was
selected directly by the Democratic
voters Of the whole county-over
1900 voters participating In che pri-
mary. Every nomfneeon ourticketfs
the undoubted choice ofa majority OF
the voting Democrats Of So. Mary's.
No one has said or can truthfully
say that there was any fraud In the
selection OF the nominees. Every
Democrat In Sc. Mary's was given
an ample chance 70 cast bis vote
and have IL counted for the candi-
date of bis choice In the primary.
Democrats who failed 20 attend the
primary ought 10 be satisfied with
candidates SO selected II they believe
In the Democratic doctrine OF ma
iority rule. There is absolutely no
reason why our ticket should not re-
ceive the cordial and united support
Of every Democrat in st. Mary's O.
that Of others not affiliated with our
party. but who believe that the vot-
ers Of o party should select their
own candidates.
AS we have said In previous is
sues. the direct system Of nominal
ing candidates Is on trial here. II
the men who participated Ia the
primary show that they are real
men and give the ticket they them-
selves made the support they pledg-
ed IL on primary day, no one will
again dare suggest q return to the
convention system Of naming candi-
dates. But, IL they fail In their
duty, and do not support the caudi-
dates they selected 40 the primary
what recommendation Is there for
continuing direct primaries2

ocratic primary Of July 81. 1909.

are satisfied that the proposed
