COUNTY POLITICS.

The day OF county poliIleo h"o "a
rived. The anti-ring or indepen-
dent people have called a mass
meeting to meet at Halifax on the
5th, of August and the organization
will hold the legalized primary at a
later date in August.
AS a democratic newspaper we de-
sire to offer few suggestions that
if followed out will help to harmo-
nize the two factions and bring
about united party. The white
people of Halifax County ought to
live and work for the very best in
terest of the county, for what eff
fects one man effects the other.
The last session Of the legislature
gave to Halifax and Nash counties
what is known as a legalized primary
law. This was asked for by resolu-
ton at the county convention two
years ago. The democratic county
organization has already announced
that the nominations for county and
legislative Offices will be made under
this law at a date to be fixed some
time in August.
There has developed some oppo-
sition to the law and especially to
parts of sections 4 and 8. 1t is claim
ed that numbers of people can be
debarred from participating in the
primary.
While we do not think any good
democrat can be denied the privilege
ofvoting in the primary yet we would
like to see the organization in issu.
ing their call for the primary make
it plain that every white democrat
in the county will be allowed tt
vote in the primary. This is tn
full intent of the law and it ough
to be carried out. Then all the PEG
pie could meet at the primary an(
fight it out for their favorites. W.
think this action on the part of tn
organization would show to the PEG
pie that they want to treat then
honest and fair. In voting at
legalized primary there is no chanc
for ring rule or bosses to carr
things their way for all have
chance to vote at the ballot box
This plan is far head of CONVEX
tons and mass-meetings.
If any part of the Democrat
party insist on holding a mass-mee1
ing for the purpose Of putting out
ticket why they can do it, and "
believe no great harm will come
they agree to present that ticket
the regular democratic primary an
there fight it out.
The primary law requires tn;
each candidate for office shall Fl
with the Clerk of the Court his nan
and the office for which he will be
candidate. This is very easily dor
and allows anybody to run for ofic
by filing the notice five days .befo,
the date for the primary.
We desire to see the factions
the county harmonic for the be
interest of the county and the der
ocrat party. We have no other i
terest in view but that will he
build up our grand old county.
Let each side give and take al
we are sure the very best feeli1
can be brought about for the goo
of all. Harmony! harmony! all tt
way down the line.

TIMELY COMMENT

After looking over the bunch of
athletes, one must come to the con-
clusion that Marion was never be-
fore so fortunate I'm the selection of
youngsters for the training season.
Those who saw the lads in action,
even though the field was muddy
and the wind cold, know that Lewis
is to have task that Is gigantic
when 1t comes to making a decision
on which ones to keep and which
to cast adrift.
Annual dope dreams about the
quality of youngsters under contract
are generally given little consider
alton but this year Mr. Fan must
believe and seeing is surely enough
To convince. Take for instance,
Van Uum, candidate for a job at
first with a world of seml-pro ex-
perience in Cleveland He moves
and acts like Gygli, the old New
ark player, His every action Is that
of master; he shifts his feet, takes
the throws and fields bunts like

also nifty and steps into the ball,
