EAsY pnLITIcs.

This is the month for the holding in this county
Of primaries for the selection Of members Of the
Democratic Co nty Committee Although It has been
rumored there will be revolt against the domina-
ton OF Senator Salisbury in some Of the hundreds we
still a here to the opinion the results will show that
the steam-roer Of the junior Senator has hattened out
all opposition.
In fact Senator Salisbury seems to have the situa-
unusualy we'll in ha~d in this county His lieu
tenants already have made up the list Of the men he
wants on the .unty committee. Everything indicates
that the slate will 60 through. He has most Of the
active Democrats in the rural districts well trained
these days that they will work under any harness he
sees fit to put them, stand without hitching and
eat out Of his hand He holds trips beneath the steam
roller In reserve for those who balk
Our prediction that most Of the Salisbury county
commiteeme' elected this month will receive their
commissions as a result Of hundred meetings and that
there will be few, if any, contests. 1t is easy politics
for the junior Senator

Former Magistrate James Monaghan Of this city
preparing celebrate lis seth birthday on October
25. THE EVENING JOURNAL unreservedly wishes to
this old Democratic warhorse who never fails
the straight ticket Of his party all possible pleasure
from the celebration. AS he a fine type Of the
Irish American citizen Of the old school, AS Demo-
crat he is beyond political redemption. The Re-
publican, Progressive Socialist Single Tax propa-
gandst who IS looking for will waste his time
If he endeavor to make this Democrat Of Democrats
see political light because he simply closes his eyes
and his ears and saws with solemn hnality: Il am
Democrat; l shall live and die in the faithl" It is
against sual policy to the Democratic vote
but we wish to Mr. Monaghan many years Of life and
happiness.

triennia Gei eral Convention the Protestant Epis-

position with reference TO marriage and divorce makes
il al the more interesting and important
There is no question that in the several dioceses

you buy any car consider the dealer who sells it
quite as much as you would the car itself.
See that he is well established and that he has
reputation for giving service. Be sure he is
prosperous. Service is not possible if he cuts
prices or if he makes unreasonable allowances
for secondhand cars and thus ties up all his
