every voter should watch these move

is right that we elect our officers

our right that we nominate our candl-

THE RIGHT MAN
FOR GOVERNOR
THE PRIMARY ELECTION LAW

in certain sections of Mississippi
and by certain political influences
there is an apparent attempt TO
create The impression that the Pr
mary Election Law is failure anu
Should be ;5 shed. This move is
being urged by tire cld-time conven-
ton man.)uiators, who find themsel-
yes stom of their power, and they
now attempt to deceive the people
with a false cly Of failure of the prl-
mary. I be people in every section of
Mississippi Should be on their guard
and not permit themselves to fall in
to the hands OF these conventioniStS.
The Primary Law, while not perfect,
Is the safeguard of the people, and
the candidates who are afraid of
going before the people for their
election, ought not to be elected. The
only class of people who find fault
with the primary are the ones who
cannot convince majority of the
people that they are worthy of their
confidence and support in elections. -
Coast Beacon.
The Coast Beacon is exactly right.
There is a faction in Mississippi that
do not want to trust the people The
jackson Daily News just a few days
ago said, eve have revcr had much
respect for the Primary Election
Law anyhow" OF course they have
not, for ever since the people Of Mis-
sissippi were emancipatcd from the
old convention system, they have
manifegter an independence in choos-
ing their officers that has floored
every o,dconventionite that has pop
ped oul for office. OF course the prl-
mary election law is not perfect, so
far as we are able to judge we have
never come across anything perfect
unless it be the matchleSa sermon on
tie Mount.

ing their own officers, If you oeheVe
in the participation of the humolest
citizen in our public affairs, you
