BELIEF EXPRESSED THAT PRI.
MARY WILL BE HELD.
Says County Candidates Should Not
Have 10 Pay for State
i Officers.
News and Courier.

News and Courier.
Columbia, Sept. 12.-Taklng the
position that it is unfair for money
collected from county candidates a.
assessment fees to be used in con-
ducting a primary for state ofhcerS
and contending that this is an sVi!
that should be abolished, George w
Beckett, county chairman Of Beau
fort county, in telegram to H. n
Edmunds, secretary of the state
Democratic executive committee, TO-
day, says that he is establishing g
precedent and Judging from his mes
sage may stick to his announced po'
sition of holding no primary in Beau
fortvTuesday.
At the same time Mr.. Beckett CONF
municates a message from a cltlzer
committee of Beaufort which has vol
urteercd to pay the costs of the prl'
nary, above The amount Mr.. Beckett:
has on hand. Mr.. Beckett contend;
that what morey he has should &c
back to the county candidates and
should not be used for defraying ex,
perses for the state officers.
Wants "sig Fellows" 20 Pay.
He claims that the county officer
aspjrants have been paying for their
state primaries long enough, and
wants to see the "big, fellows" pay
for them hereafter. Although the
telegram from Mr.. Beckett does not
state specifically whether or not he
run off despite the apparent hitch OF
M. Beckett. Mr.. Edmunds points
ort that if every county chairman IN
the state were to make the same de-
mand on the state committee as Mr.
Beckett it would take nearly $685.
900 for this primary election.
In closing, Mr.. Beckett claims that
w. J. Thomas, apparently represent
ing the citizens committee, does not
understand the situation and has
placed him and Beaufort Democracy
in false position.

oung people do not seem to have
me to study the undying history OF

ificcs made and the hardships en-
,,ured by these heroes was not ex-
elled and rarely equalled even by
nv of the. soldiers Of the world war.
