To tho Editor Of The Times Dispatch.
In Tho Times Dispatch of tho 29tn
OF Juno appears communication
signed by Messrs. Eugene Withcrs, w.
Il. Gucrrant and others, which by in
ference creates tho impression that I,
ms chairman of tho City Democratic
Committee, cndcavorcd TO induce w.
w. Holland not to circulate II petition
last year for primary In behalf OF
Captain John q. Lea for postmaster OF
this city.
L desire to say that such action on
my part as Is intimated In tho said
communication is not true. in no
way attempted to influence Mr.. Hol-
land in the above matter: In fact, 1 did
not even speak to Mr.. Holland or he
to me regarding tho same.
AS regards my conversation with
some members of the Democratic Eek
ecutive Committee, as to the authority
Of the City Democratic Committee to
order Il primary for postmaster for this
city, 1 took the ground then. az l do
now, that tho State party plan grants
no authority to the city committee,
nor makes any provision ror such pri-
mary to bo held, and only authorizes
tho holding of primaries for the sew
cral offices named in the plan.
When n primary was discussed some
months since for the judgeship of Pc
tersburg, l understood that tho State
chairman decided that the party plan
did not authorize the same. and such
primary was not held For the same
reasons j hold that the matter OF a
primary for postmaster Is not author
lied. III the party plan does not au-
thorizc or empower primary for GER
tain state offices. II certainly would
not do SO for 4 Federal office.
In tho communication above referred
to, IL appears to me there arc some
other inaccuracies, but inasInuch as
my name is not connected with the
same / pass them by.

communicated with me directly or in
directly regarding the petition.
withdrew the petition because found
that II would require more of my time
than could give to the matter with
no assurance that primary would be
ordered. w. w. HOLLAND.

Harper's Weekly gives editorial
approval to this peculiar political
economy, put forward by Professor
Clark. of Columbia University:

men are striking for So a day. will
pay to other men 81, in order TO
break the back OF Il strike de-
serves 10 ho forced TO give to it's
original employees the 81 rate.
1T would be entirely equitable
to make the amount that is given
to the emergency gang the mini
mum that must be given TO the
permanent force"
Suppose the rate OF wages paid
strike-breakcrs temporarily Is so
high that, il paid permanently to the
original employees, the business could
not be conducted at profit? In that
case would not tho company be COM
PEELED to suspend operations? What
wages would the original employees
get then?
