If the district committee of this ju.
1ieial district gives proper consider
alton to the present troubles of the
Democratic party, it will do some
very hard thinking before it calls a
primary election to choose nominees
for judge and attorney. Primaries
As they are held nowadays are nearly
always unsatisfactory and often cor
rnpt. The recent one in Galloway
county is in the courts, its nomina-
tiOns questioned by the very men
who hope to pull off a district prima-
~ to perpetuate their friends in
office. In the Bardstown district
another contest is imminent and in
pany districts the frauds perpetrat-
ed in primaries result in subsequent
defeats for those claiming the nomi
nations Few people believe that
ihe nomination for circuit Judge in
lhis district in 1903 was an honest
expression Of a majority of those
voting and another such primary
viii result in certain defeat. What
the party needs is an old fashioned
convention where delegates can meet
At Cadiz, or Eddyville and talk over
lAeir differences and agree upon a
span who can win and save the cam
paign funds for the November elec-
5on. A primary election controlled
by any one candidate will not satisfy
those who want the party to win.

FIENDS MURDER
BURNING BODY
Michigan Ministers Dismem-
bered Corpse Found In
Church Stoves.

Detroit, Mich, Jan. 6.-The dis
membered body of the Rev. j H.
Carmichael, a Methodist minister,
was found today partly consumed
by fire in the two heating stoves Of
one Of his three churches near Co
lumbus. in the southwestern part Of
st. Clair county. identification Of
the dead clergyman was soon effect
ed. Mrs. Carmichael, in great dis
tress at her husbands failure to re.
turn as expected last evening, sur
missed that the minister was the vic
tim as soon as she heard that some
one had been murdered in the Co.
lumbus church. There was a rumor
that a strange man had left train
at Hickory late Yesterday afternoon
and been directed to the Columbus
church. There were other rumors
indicating that two men were i'm
pucaJeu IN VIle Cflule.
Robbery Not Motive
The fact that several coins were
found in the clothing of the dead
man and in the ashes in the stove
precludes the theory of robbery and
at the time of his death it was not
known that the murdered minister
had an enemy in the world. Rev.
Carmichael had been in Michigan
about ten years and for two years
had been pastor of the three church
es at Columbus, Adair and China
With his wife and three children he
resided at Adair. Leaving home
yesterday morning he told Mrs. Car
michael that he was going to Colum-
bus to arrange for a series Of revival
meetings there and from that mo-
ment all trace of him was lost.

Duty of the South.

1t is full time for the South TO give
up following and to demand her
right to be followed in the councils
of the Democracy, if that once great
party is to regain its former dignity
and be re-established as a party of
power and patriotism. Let the
South forget the race problem, at
least temporarily. 1t will not run
away and can always be promptly
considered and effectively dealt with
when it demands special attention.
The pressing duty of the South to-
day is to save true Democracy. The
vital need of the hour is to get rid
of the follies and false gods that for
twelve years have been justifying
themselves in the name of the Dem
ocratic party. Let the substantial
and patriotic men of the South assert
themselves as the lineal descendants
of the founders or Democracy and
prove their title by scorning the
leadership of mountebanks and by
repndiating heretical dogmas that
have been exploited as Democrat
doctrine. Enthused with courage
and inspired by truth, the South
and the South only. has the power
to deliver the Democratic party from
the depths of defeat into which II
has been dragged and restore it t,
