Now, Mr.. Editor, there are other
questions which are If interest and inn
portance to the people of the State at
this time and one Of these pertains to
fair and honest Q ectioDs and primaries
and the writer Of this letter does not
hesitate 10 say, that IN his opininn, all
primaries for any and al! offers. should
te placed under the same legal re-
srrictions and subjee', in cas- OF viola
tiun. ~ the same legal p.oal.I~s as are
provided under the laws ptrGaini ,g to
general elections.
For the life of me. cannot perceive
how any sane citizen can Consider any
question or policy. whether IL bs pri-
vate or public, in any other light than

les in South Carolina; I have never
heard OF any person who objected to
fair and honest primaries except the
railroad corporations and their tools,
the crooked politicians; I am reliably
informed and ~ believe that during
the las, State primary, railroad en-
poyees in this State voted up and
down during the day at every voting
booth from the city Of Charleston 70
Greenville aud Spartanhurg: it, is very
evident that unless al primaries are
not soon placed under thu same legal
restrictions as pertain TO our general
elections, the railroad corporations
will dominate the politics Of South
Carolina and our people degenerate to
similar conditions as now prevail in
Mexico.
There is no need of special primary
law. but the en'ir': matter can be reg
ulated in short bill by rrfereuce to
thu gepera! election laws aS is the case
in the State Of Missouri; IN lDf1rmed
that al primaries iu the State Of Flor

result gives great satisfaction to the
honest white voters Of Florida.
"What ye SOW. that shall ye also
reap" and this proverb holds good IN
the matter of politics as we'll as pri-
vate morals, anc unless all primaries
are regulated after the manner herein
