Against Joint Discussions.

Mr.. Editor The action of the
Democratic committee of Montgom-
cry county and the city of Radford
in regard to a joint discussion be-
tween Judge Mann and Mr.. Tucker
at Christiansburg a few days ago was
commendable, and 1t is TO be hoped
that every Democratic county and
city committee will"se its foot down
hard" ON all joint discussions be-
tween candidates of the democratic
faith for the same office before the
primaries. The democratic party has
but one set of principles, and we APP
Prove OF the discussion of these prin-
pies but this should be done in a
thoughtful, ,dispassionate manner and
the candidate should receive our sup
port in the primaries whose views on
great issues are thoroughly demo-
cratic aud most nearly meet our ap-
proval. Between candidates of the
same political faith there can be but
minor differences in principles, or
their application, and discussions be-
tween such candidates invariably
leads TO undertaking and personal
abuse rather than clear and we'll
defined attitude of the democratic
divide the two great parties. The pre-
sonal bitterness thus engendered be-
tween the two candidates spreads to
their respective personal following,
and assumes such hostility that
many friends of the defeated can
didate can not support the successful
candidate after the primary Will
that enthusiasm which success de-
mands. We hope every effort will be
made by all good democrats to dis
parage joint discussions between ou
candidates TOR the same office and eli
inmate as far as possible persona
abuse for our campaigns. When we d
this we will have one less seriou
criticism of the primaries. Joint dis
cussions, when continued from tim
to time, can but lead to persons
abuse, which does our party infinit
harm and "gives our friends the er
emy" as much joy as church ro
does the devil. There has never bee
democratic candidate for any hiR
office within the gift of the people
Virginia for whose candidacy dem
cracy had an apology. This is pa
ticularly true of Judge Mann al
Mr.. Tucker, either of whom are
every way qualified to fill the his
office of governor of Virginia, but
some places where joint debates ha
been held such bitten personal fee
ing has been engendered between t
candidates and their following as
cause the we'll wishers of true dem
cracy to hope that some other acp'
able candidate would enter the ra,
Indeed, if these joint debates are
lowed to continue we few who
main faithful to the party after
primaries are over, will find I

Columbia Wyandottes are also a
comparatively new breed, the birds

birds are getting the best of care and
will make noticeable showing in a
short time.
