COMMITTEE HAS A
DUTY TO PERFORM

The County Democratic Com
mittee has been called to meet in
Camden on the first Monday in
September. The committee has
! been called together for the pur-
pose of taking action IN regard to
nominating a ticket for the 1929
election of county officials.
1t has been customary hereto
fore for the committee to consult
the candidates in regard to the
time and manner of nominating a
ticket. The wishes of candidates
should be considered in such mat
ters only SO far as they are consist
ent with the best interests of the
Democratic party, which should be
safeguarded by the committee.
We are told that it is often the
case in our county that a third man
is induced to get into g race merely
for the purpose of weakening an
opponent with a strong following.
Be this as it may, when there are
three or more candidates for the
same office it is seldom if ever the
case that the nominee receives g
majority of the votes cast. Dissat-
isfaction is thus created, and the
result is a number of Democrats
do not feel under obligations to
support a minority candidate.
Again, the custom OF permitting
Republicans to vote in Demo-
cralic primary is hurting the party.
Candidates, as a rule, wink at it
aud some even encourage it, hop
ing they will be the beneficiary.
The Republicans have 10 further
Interest in a Democratic primary
than the nomination of its weakest
candidate. Accepting the ballots of
Republicans il. resented by large
number of Democrats some of our
best men-who, because of such
practice, have not participated in a
primary or convention for several
years, All Of this has had tend
ency to weaken the party and i'm
pair its influence in our county.
The primary is not becoming un-
popular, as many would have you
believe, but it is the manner of
conducting primaries in the past
that has caused dissatisfaction and
caused many many good men to re-
fuse to participate in them. This
dissatisfaction will not cease until
the committee throws more restric-
tions around the primary so that
every candidate will be assured of
a fair and equal showing in con-
test for party preferment.
Past experience proves that more
hard feelings aud bitter dissatis-
faction are engendered in con-
vention than iu primary, With
few plain rules to govern it and
good men to conduct it the pIima-
ry is far the best way to ascertain
the will of the majority. In order
to do this it will be necessary for
the committee to make provision
for runoff in cases where ma
jority is not obtained.

AROUND TOWN
nv nPGEDVED
...BY OBSERVER.

The attention Of Observer has
been called to a recent order of the
town authorities regarding Sunday
closing. Isn't it fact that the law
is openly violated in Camden every
Sunday? Furthermore, isn't the
threat to "put the lid on tight" an
admission Of the fact? II it is a
violation of law for storekeepers
to open on Sunday, then is not the
town authorities condoning the vi
olation Of law by the order?
The fact of the business is, our
town authorities have made the
mistake of not declaring for rigid
enforcement of all laws, Sunday
laws not excepted.
In the language Of prominent
Tennessee jurist, "if we counte-
nance the breaking or violation of
one law, we may expect disrespect
Of all laws" When you wink at
the violation of law, you weaken
the entire fabric of our civilization.
One Of the best things for the
community right at the present
time would be little law enforce
ment in Camden, and we know of
no better way to inaugurate such
movement that by strict enforce
ment of the Sunday laws.
Law enforcement should not be-
gin and end with Camden. Why
not followthe example set by Hen.
derson and other counties and or
ganize a strong County Law and
Order League? SuchNan organi-
zation was recently perfected at
Lexington, composed of the coun-
ties best citizens.
The purpose of the League is to
provide ways and means for the
suppression Of crime and enforce
ment of law. The league ramifes
every district of the county, and al
ready splendid results have been
accomplished.

It has been suggested, aud we
deem it good one, that the south
side of court square be used for
parking cars instead of for hitchiug
purposes and the order requiring
cars to park Is feet from the walk
way should be revoked. AS it is
cars SO parked are in the way of
traffic and often the street is block
aided, as was the case several times
last Saturday. If the cars, wagons
and buggies were parked near the
court yard wall in systematic way
there would be ample room for
traffic every day in the year.

en- as opposed to the tOp-f1ight men. .
Over here it has been the theory
often yerified-by the way that the hrst
ten man players could give the first ten
woman players a fifteen-point handicap
and dispose of them handily. Indeed.
there are many. who maintain that the
first twenty male players are superior
to the best women.
/ The issue as between the male ana
the female of the species was worked
out in most thrilling manner in France
when Tilden encountered Mile. Lengien
at st. Cloud.
Tilden won without a great deal OF
difficulty. And, even so, Tilden was not
in his best form. But Mile. Lenglen said
she>was not up to snuff either. Where
upon Bill Tilden offered to meet her
again when she felt up to par But
the French girl seemed content to let
the matter rest. Perhaps after the cham-
pionships are settled We may have some
Lost-season man and woman tests which
will be of the utmost interest.
As to American Polo.
1t is gratifying to note that the Amer
lean Polo Association Is not going TO
rest upon it international laurels and
give polo players a rest for the re-
mainder Of the year. 1t is likewise sat
isfactory to note that the various teams
