REFLECTIONS ON ELECTIOI
A Veteran Editor Writes of Cha

^ eslordav 11 u* people of Smith (
<>liria hold their primary election
I . S. senator, Stale otlieors and ec
ty oilicers. During the previous n
ami in the forenoon of the <lay, r
fell, and the overhanging elonds n
the day as gloomy as any that
ever have in this eel ion. And in
afternoon a eeaseless rain fell.
It seemed that few of the sover
eoiild exercise their right to volt
express their choice fur Hlieers

While the friends of each eandit
were interested in the election of I
favorites, yet the chief general in
est seemed to center in the eleetioi
l\ S. senator and governor of
Slate.
The campaign of the Stale f'
county to county is not only inst
tive, hut it is influential in giving
red ion to the votes of the people,
instance, at the beginning of the e
paign the vote for Elicit, in our o
ion, would have been small in the
country. Little was known of
and prejudice against Charles
would have had its influence in ki
ing voles from Elicit.
Of course it is not known to u:
least, how the candidates will st
at the count out, but our testim
would be that to his competitors
due a large share of the votes wl
went to Elicit yesterday.
For U. S. senator the campaign
run on a different plane, though cl
aeferized by something of the. s
animus ;is that for governor of*
State.
Vigorous war was made against
TVmocracy of Kindt, and such s|
ficat ions were made as in I lionise
disproved the abortions of his
mies. Excepting only in charge!
to t)n> contents of a letter to
president the antidote went al
with the poison, and accomplished
opposite effect, from that which
intended. Latterly the charges a
the contents of the letter were
proved. The disproval of the
Toetness of the charges as to the
tents of Elicit'? letter to the pi
dent, appealed to the unbiased v
\v,ho may have felt like righting
wrong which had been done to n {
man. The worth of this man,
the high conduct of his campaign 1
factors in Elicit's favor. Spea
for this editor, his vote was chat
from one of the other candidate
Rhctt.
In the governor's race, it scenic

I this editor that yesterday we east !
in- vote, not against Ansel, but
gainst the methods of his friends 1
'hose conduct should lie as liisrh as of
to highest. Ansel is too high a man eoi
1 seek or to accept reelection either yes
v doubtful or by discreditable moth- do\
tls. TTo seeks no office to which be wa
mst attain by trampling under foot ha.ie
good name of any man, which big
nod name is rather to be chosen than or.
reat riches, and which is more to lie in
iveted than the acquisition of the ma
ighost honors that a great State cxt
>uld bestow.
This editor has a right to vote for d.V
ie best man w.ho may offer for of- thji

ie ground that there is difference ia hip

While the attack upon tlie charae- mj]
of Mr. Blease may not have boon sir
