lCoMMUSICATED.
Dear Editor of the BEACON

Dear Editor of the BEACON
noticed in last weeks issue of
your esteemed paper a communica-
ton from Mr.. George G. beverley,
in which, among other things, he
stated that Mr.. J. Allan Coad was
absent nine days during the session
of the Legislature of 1920. Now,
with no desire whatever to take
sides or impugn the motives of Mr..
beverley in making this statement,
nevertheless, In the interest of JUS
tice and fair play and in order to
remove any wrong impression that
it might produce, desire to say
that when the Legislature convened,
and for at least eight or ten days
thereafter. Mr.. Coad was quite i'll
and unable to leave his home and
was attending him regularly.
As matter of fact. / know he
was anxious TO attend the meetings
Of the Legislature several days be-
fore l considered it prudent or ad.
visable for him to do so. In view
of the foregoing facts, | am sure
Mr.. beverley, as well as every other
falrminded man, will not do MI.
Coad the injustice of ascribing his
absence from the Legislature on the
days mentioned to negligence or in
difference to his duties.
Verv respectfully,

THE PRIMARY

st. Mary's will elect this fall
almost an entire complement of
local officers, including a Senator
and two members to represent
the county in the next General
Assembly. All signs point to a
Democratic year. The people
have been fed up" on Republi-
can promises of a speedy return
to pre-war conditions and are
disguised at the lack of construc-
tive and remedial legislation en-
acted by the Republican Congress
recently recessed.
An analysis of the primary
registration points exclusively
to the deep interest being mani
tested in Democratic success, to-
tails showing a very pronounced
gain in the registered utilization.
Two highly important selec-
tons are to be made at the pri-
maries on Friday namely, the
choice of the Democratic candi-
dates for the Office of Senator and
the election of the six members
of the managing body of the
party.
The managing body will have
the responsibility of filling vacan-
cies on the ticket and will be
charged with the executive duties
attendant upon the successful
prosecution of the campaign.
But, after all is said, the will
of the people, as expressed at the
primaries, must govern, and tn :
edict, so expressed, should be ac-
cepted in the proper spirit. The
primary, as the means of nomi-
mating candidates. is the out
growth of dissatisfaction with
the old convention plan and was
adopted to give to each individual
voter the opportunity to register
his choice between opposing as
pirants. 1t is the very essence
of Democracy and Americanism,
being founded on the unassail-
able principle of majority rule.
Let all good Democrats emerge
from the primary campaign de-
termined to line up solidly behind
the successful candidates. If we
dc that the party will undoubted-
ly repeat the success of the past
four years.

IRISH AND BRITISH
HOLD PEACE DOOR OPEN
Premier Gets Reply OF Valera Re.
lecting Terms and Answer 10
at Once Sent TO Dublin.

LOndOn.-David Lloyd George, the
British Prime Minister, sent a prompt
reJoinder to the letter OF canon de
Valera, President Of the Irish Re-
public" which rejected the British
governments terms for peace In Ire
land.
The PremIer's note constituted q
nrm reiteration OF the governments
former standpoint, that Ireland could
not be permitted to withdraw from the
empire. He said he thought he had
made It clear in conversations and
previous communications that the gov
eminent can discuss no settlement
which involves a refusal on the part Of
Ireland TO accept a free, equal and
loyal partnership in the British Com
monwealth under one sovereign.
Mr. Lloyd George In concluding his
note still held open the door for fur
Their negotiations with FIR. de Valera
and his colleagues II they are prepared
to examine how far the governments
consideration "can be reconciled with
the aspirations you represent" He
declared, however, that the govern
ment could not "prOieng a mere sx-
change OF notes"
In his communication Mr.. Lloyd
George preserved the same friendly
tone that characterized his former
letters to Mr.. de Valera. He buttress-
ed the governments standpoint by
quotations from Irish patriots and
Abraham Lincoln. He warned Mr.. de
Valera that a needless prolOngation
OF the negotiations would serve TO
play into the hands OF the extremists,
who, he declared, were only anxious
to wreck the negotiations and termi-
nate the truce.
Even after the publication Of de Va
lera's letter there was a curious ex-
preston Of continued optimism as to
the outlook, both here and In Dublin.
