THE PRIMARY HERE TO STAY.
At iotervals there has appeard articles
in the columns of acme of our
contemporaries in wbicb the writers
have attacked the present primary
system of nominating candidates for
political offices and expressed a desire
to return to the old convention
plan. None of them, however, contained
a single tangible reason why
the primary should be supplanted
by the convet ti< n plan. R-volotions
never gob ok ward, they are p- yre-sive,
going forward as the bauds
mark off the seconds upon the dial
of the clock. As the primary is the
legitimate offspring of the great political
revolution of 1890, to make an
exception of this would be reversing
the truth of history and making a
nullity of the eternal fitDess of things.
The convention plan of nominating
candidates for political office has
served its day; accomplished the purposes
which called it into existence
and must now remain a memory of
the dead past. Under its workings
the prerogatives of the elector were
delegated to representatives and as
they decided so was the elector, like
dumb beast led to the slaughter,
bound and was compelled to give
\
support to men and measures which
his judgment told him were incompetent
in the first instance and in the
second unsound in principle.. Iu the
days of the convention plan the elector
was the slave and the politician
the master. By the manipulation of
wires, the intrigue of cliques and
the formation of rings the trickery
politician was enabled to crack the
parly lash and whip into line the
recalcitrant elector whose sense of
principle and love of truth, justice
and decency forced him to protest
against the mandates of the bosses.
Merit and fitness were but small fac
tors in making nominations and abject
compliance and strict obedience
to the will and wishes of those who
pulled the wires were the only open
sesames to office. The exercise of
independence and manhood was not
thought of, the prevailing idea being
a state of political serfdom for
the masses, and the dissatisfaction at
the intolerance of the bosses was the
fuel which fed the flames, kindled and
fanned by Tillman's burning and
scathing denunciations, made the
success of the revolution possible.
A return to the convention plan
means simpiy a return to the degrading
and debasing methods from
which we have been relieved.
The primary plan of making nominafmn
Jo Kr nn mosriQ norfo/>t Thorp
iUBiiVU AO MJ uv UIVMW0 |/v**vvv* AMVAW |
are maDy defects which needs to
be rectified; many improvements
can be made to advantage. The
system at present in force is too cumbersome
and unweildly. While it is
not asking too much for the candidates
to appear before the people
whose suffrage they seek but at the
sametime it is a costly and expensive
undeitaking and a luxury in which
the rich can only afford to indulge iD.
The legitimate campaign expenses of
a candidate cannot be much, under a
hundred dollars, the probability is
that it will exceed this sum and from
this fact alone many a poor but deseiviDg
man is prevented from making
the race for a State office. He
simply hasn't the money to spare to
make the canvass of the State. To
remedy this evil or hardship is deserving
the closest and most thoughtful
attention of the State Democratic
Executive Committee. It is idle to
talk about abolishing the system and
it is as equally idle to think of abridging
the campaign meetings so as to
nrovide for one meeting in each Cjn
*
gressional District, for doing this
the essential principle of the primary
system is destroyed. The electors
and the candidates have a light
to demand that meetings be held in
each county?the candidates to express
their views on political issues
and to seek votes, the electors to hear
and from the hearing they can intel
ligently use the priceless gift of an
elective franchise to the best interest
of the State.
The pjrotccnical display this year
at the State Fair will piobably be
the "Battle of Manila." The reproduction
of this brilliant naval engagement
will probably attract thousands
of people from all over the State.
It is said to be Pains' masterpiece
and is magnificent in conception;
pleasirg in effect, and in startling
faithfulness the battle is portrayed.
It is proposed also to have the 3,000
Unite d States soldiers to be stationed
at Columbia take part in the military
ard civic parade. This fair will be by
krg cdds the best cue ever held in
that city.

?The nivstery
jof life and
death has puzzled
many a
wise man. The
alchemists of
|old searched in
'vain for some
combination of
drups that
would prolong
life indefinite
A) J ly- Comm?n
Y Uijvjti f sense, chemisSS^JA
/ .\[jk A try and medical
*s\[ ll/irp^' ' science have
-^7/ Hvj^> combined in
this age to
6how man the way to a long and healthy
life..
Common sense teaches that a man should
not over-work or over-worry; that he should
take ample time for his meals, for resting
and for recreation and sleep; that he should
not neglect the little ills of life, because
they are the precursors of serious and fatal
maladies. Chemistry has enabled men to
make combinations of drugs that were impossible
in the days of the alchemists.
Sledical science has taught when, how and
why these combinations of drugs should
be used. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
is the most valuable of all healthrestoring
medicines, and the most effective.
Its first work is upon the fountain-head of
life?the stomach. A wan who has a weak
and impaired stomach and who docs not
properly digest his food will soon find that
his blood has become weak and impoverished,
and that his whole body is improperly
and insufficiently nourished. This
medicine makes the stomach strong, facilitates
the flow of digestive juices, restores
the lost appetite, makes assimilation per- j
feet, invigorates the liver and purifies and
enriches the blood. It is the great bloodmaker,
flesh-builder and nerve tonic. It
makes men strong in body, active in mind
and cool in judgment.
It does not make flabby fat, but solid,
muscular flesh, nerve force and vital en- j
ergy. All medicine dealers sell it
J. W. Jordan. Esq., of Corbin. Whitley Co.,
Ky.. writes ; " About two and a half years ago
I was taken with severe pains in the chest, be
gan to spit up blood, was troubled with nightsweats
and was so short winded that I could
hardly walk half a mile. Tried Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and have improved
both ia strength and weight."
The medicine dealer who urges some
substitute is thinking of the larger profit
he'll make and not of your best good.

that he intended giving up the management
of the National Republican
Executive Committee.

The members of the United States
