Result Of The Primary Elections.

Not only in Forest county, but through
out the whole state as well, the vote a
the primaries was exceedingly light
showing that unless some sharp locs
contest is on the voters care little abou
the preliminary contests and will no
take the trouble to go to the polls, ever
though they have chance to assist di
rectly in the choice of candidates fol
Governor, Senator and other high statt
offices. In Forest county far less thar
half the legally qualified voters attended
the primaries, and this percentage holds
good in practically all of the other coun'
ties in the state. II this is the case in SC
important contest as was just closed
when so many large offices are to be
filled and at the first trial of state. W ide
primaries, what will il be in an off year!
Another thing that is made apparent is
the fact there is mighty slim chance for
the success of a candidate outside the
large cities or the heavy centers of popu-
lation, where it is easier to get out the
voters and center them on particular
candidate. Nevertheless the state. W ide
primaries are here, and probably to stay,
at least until more popular method is
found and given a trial, and so it needs
be that all shall take their medicine and
look pleasant. Likewise the honorable
thing for voter to do is TO Loyalty sup.
port the nominees of the party in whose
primaries he participated, otherwise par
ties and principles might as we'll be cast
aside and the whole thing thrown wide
open without head or tail to direct.

THE Punxsutawney Spirit, which ear
nestly supported Mr.. Dimmick in the re-
cent primary campaign has this to say:
"The statement of j. Benjamin Dimmick
10 the effect that his declaration that Pen
rose had become moral issue, publicly
eliminated the possibility of his support
of Penrose in the event of defeat, Is a
trifie ambiguous. Participation in the
primaries is presumed to carry with il
the obligation to support the winner.
And this obligation has always been re-
garded as particularly binding upon the
candidates themselves. Mr.. Dimmick
does not say he will support any other
candidate for Senator, and the probability
is he will decline to take stand for any
candidate" In another item the Spirit
also remarks, very consistently, that
"The Republican party has nominated its
candidates after a primary election that
was open TO all, and the thing for Re-
publicans to do is to forget all fsctionsl
feeling and prejudices and line up for the
ticket"
