Where Beckham Stands.

On next Thursday, December 22.
the Democratic state executive COM
mittee will meet in Louisville, to
discuss the question of the best
method of nominating candidates for
state Offices to be elected next No
vember. IL is understood that this
meeting OF the committee is not to
take any immediate or decisive ae-
ton in the matter, but merely for
the purpose OF an informal discus
sion with a view to ascertaining, If
possible. the best plan for the party
to adopt.
Nevertheless, certain elements, OF
interests, have actively been at work
to defeat any proposition that might
lead to a state primary. and, by send
ing out circulars attacking the friends
of Senator McCreary, and in other
ways 10 influence members of the
committee against the plan. II Is ru-
mored. too. that a considerable eff
fort has been made to bring to Louis
willie on the day the committee meets
a large number of men to express
disapproval of the primary and work
upon the members of the committee.
The Louisville Democratic commit
tee, so 1t has been reported. has
adopted resolution protesting
against a primary and favoring a con-
vention. This action by that COM
mittee should surprise no one when
II is remembered that that commit
tee is absolutely the creation and the
obedient agent of the wishes and die
tation of one man.-Col. John H.
Whallen. That gentleman is intense
ly against a state primary, for very
obvious reasons, and is no doubt ex-
erting every power and influence he
can command to prevent the state
committee from calling one.
OF course, he is against a state
primary. There are some plausible
objections against II. but when
those objections are measured against
the infinitely greater objections which |
exist to a state convention in the
present condition of party politics. |
they are small indeed. and can easily |
and honestly be overcome.
Col. Whallen's part In the Music |
Hall convention OF 1899 should be
remembered by the Democrats of
Kentucky and they should dread a
repetition OF the events OF that
