Mr.. Tucker discussed Judge Mann 5

but when he said that he would vote

CONTEST WITHIN THE PARTY
SHOULD BE AMicAeLE.

With the primary date only lit.
tie more than two weeks distant, the
candidates for Democratic nomina-
lions for the various Local ofnces and
the legislature within the next few
days will begin their final ana real
work OF the campaign. Probably sew
eral meetings will be held, and II Is
likely that. as usual. mere OF less po'
litical wool will ny.
The Daily Press takes no part in
primary fights, and is interested only
TO the extent of desiring to see good
men chosen to bear the party ban
ner in the general election. How
ever. it may not be out Of place at
this time TO beg that ali the candi-
dates make 1t point to remember
that this is fight within the party
and that there should be no personal,
embittering attacks calculated to stir
up permanent discord In the ranks.
There Is no Indication now. that any
thing OF this kind will be done. but
in the closing DAYS OF a campaign
candidates and their friends wax
warm, and II Is always desirable that
they should hold themselves in CHECK
as much as possible.
This summer. for the first time In
some years. the local Republicans
propose to put full local ticket in
the field. There will be candidate
for every Office. and there is reasc-:
TO believe that another strenuous e.
fort will be made to land @. o. p.
representative in the legislature.
Twice such an effort has barely fail
ed.
IL Is believed that something like
sixteen hundred votes will be cast In
the Democratic primary. ana II TINS
is done there should be no difficulty
in electing the primary nominee by
overwhelming majorities. We should
not forget, however, that the Repub-
lican legislative candidate has twice
missed election by only few votes
and that in the last mayoralty cleo.
ton the Democratic 1omfnce received
q majority of only seventy. Remem-
bering this fact. the candidates and
other party leaders cannot be too
careful in their efforts TO prevent
strife and dissatisfaction in the
ranks this year.
