CEMENTING THE PARTY

The Republicans are already &C.
cusing the Democrats of going af-
ter the spoils Of political patron.
age. The elimination of the civil
service feature from revenue ap-
pointments is held up as a sample
of the greed of the Democratic
politician. This charge can be made
to stick, thank the Lord, against
the national Democratic party, but
alas, the Democracy of the State
of Nevada cannot be charged with
partisan bias Of late years. ..
The Democrats of Nevada neeu
a little common sense drilled into
them. They need to be taught how
TO- swing the good strong club of
party patronage.
For years past the Republicans,
with minorities in the legislature
have been able to outwit the easy
going Democrats who give up all
the good things to their willy OPP
ponents.
You never hear of the Republi-
cans giving ~out any of the party
doughnuts to any one but their own
party. The democrats of Nevada,
whenever they can help few Re-
pnbliGans to get something good.
stand in and give them the big lift.
This has hurt the party more than
can be estimated.
Patronage is the cement that
binds the party together. Without
it there is no real adhesiveness.
Without it the party is easily dis
integrated. Leading. Democrats
have for a long time in this state
adhered to the foolish policy o. ig-
noring their friends and conciliat.
ing their enemies. 1t is time this
nonsense stopped. The Appeal pro-
: poses to go to the bat on this ques
tion and fight it to standstil. We
hold that there are enough live,
honest aud conscientious Democrats
lahoring in the cause of Democracy
to partake of the provender of the
party. There is campaign COM
ing on next year. We must prepare
for it by putting none but friends
on guard. There are many leading
Democrats;iD the state at the pres
ent writing who are giving the best
things at their command to either
straight, open Republicans or men
who have knitted the ticket on cleo
tion day. If the officials having
the appointments can't tell the
difference between the friends and
enemies Of the party, the rank and
file can mighty soon put men in
their places with a better sense of
political discernment. Weed out

A new patent that will interest men
who would like to discard suspenders,

Then in conclusion we will say,
"Let each and every teacher of
Russell county get his soul filled
with inspiration, and though he
is not actively engaged in the
profession this year, let him
breathe forth a prayer for those
who are, that the children of our
own country be trained in such
way that when they reach the
age of manhood and womanhood,
it may be said of our great and
glorious commonwealth, that she
has at least one county whose
citizens are true and patriotic in
every respect, and whose chill
dren are receiving an education
that is unequalled by any in all
the land"

We are glad to say that Rus

the regular course of study there
will be a number of important

There are to be three Shakes

icise the State primary law, for
We believe in the underlying
motives that back it and that
brought it into existence, but to
plainly speak, it appears 70 be
too bulky in it's provisions. and
not likely to give the degree of
satisfaction intended. There is
too much red tape attached, and
instead of making it simple and
fair, its provisions are very Cum
bersome on those who seek to
place their names on the prima-
~ ballot. A close perusal of
the nomination paper is bourd to
convince any one that it is not |
what it ought to be, that too
many ifs and ands exist, that |
instead of broadening opportuni-
ty, they are contracted. The
right to withdraw from a race is
prohibited after the nominating
paper has been filed, and a dec
laration on the part of voters to
vote for the nominee is also re-
quired. We believe in party Or
ganization, in party loyalty, but
do not believe in it to the extent
provided in the primary law.
No party nor no man should obi
gate to an incompetent or to any
one not calculated to render
efficient public service and in the
clamOr for official position such
nominations may occur. The ex-
ercise of franchise should be to
the best interest of the public,
and any provision to the contrary
can not be healthy. Freedom of
the voter is absolutely essential
to correct political evils that
come through misguided party
action or policy, and the provis-
ion herein referred to forces ev-
cry one to support the nominees
or repudiate an agreement to
which he becomes a party if he
votes in the primary. AS we
see it and believe it, no legisla-
tive power has the right to pre-
vent any man from giving the
best service possible for him to
give through the ballot, and be-
lieving as we do, feel that many
will hold to the same view in a
construction of the clause that
evidently strikes a serious blow
at independent voting and tends
to solidify party organiza-
ton at the detriment of public
good. Then the clause that
compels a voter to disclose his
political utilization, as we see it,
is in open violation of the spirit
of the secret ballot and uncon
stitutional. The broadcast free
dom possible ought to be giveI
to independent voting and ever!
man ought to possess the lega
as truly as the moral right t
cast his vote as he deems eXpe
dent, to serve his country rath
aer than party, to disclose or cor
ceal his political action as h
may desire. The primary la
needs revision downward an
