VIOLATING PRIMARY PLEDGES.

In the Newport News elections Tuesday
Thomas y. Hundley, useful member of the
city council. was defeated by the votes of Demo
Gratis who voted in the primary and pledged
themselves to support the nominees of the
party,
II seems that the names of two candidates
Mr., Hundley and Mr. Liyezey, did not appear
on the primary ticket, they had no opposi-
ton and We're declared by the city committee
to he nominees at the party, but rs the Press
observes they were as truly the party nominees
as if their names had appeared on the primary
ticket. In the election however, Mr. Liyezey
was elected. but MIR. Hundley was slaughtered
In the house of his friends for dark horse.
Says the Press, further supporting its posi-
ton
In the last gubernatorsl primary, stuart's
name did not appear the ticket because he
had no opposition, and the committee declared
him 10 he the unanimous choice Of the party.
Fut did thar release any Democrat from his
pledge 10 support the nominees? Did 1t re-
leaT him FRAN his obligation to vote for Stuart
THE fact Is that the pledge which Demo.
Gratis make IN the primary has become moro
or less a farce. The party does not make any
provision for enforcing it, and many who vote
in The primary de- not take The pledge seriously,
nor VIII they. until the party authorities make

The Press thinks we have rung the changes
