Keep the Primary Cledn.
Sin(e the first primary election on
August 20th, reports of jrross irreK'J-
larities have been cominjr out of
Aiken 0/ounty. A dispat<h from Aik
en states that the Lanjrlcy box has
>H-en protested because of alleged ir-
re>rularities, it lK*inp charged amontr
other things that 29 more A ntes were
east at that precinct “than the total
of the enrollment ns shown by the
tally sheet.” It is further alleged
“that ballots were sent to the homes
of several persons who were • ill and
could not tret to the polls, these tK-inj?
deposited jn the ballot box after be-
irur scratched.” It is also charged
that “ballots were scattered all over
the hall, outside the booths, and <it
times several persons were in a
booth toyrether.”
It iw said that there were abo
irregularities at the Aiken precinct
;.rnl The Aiken Standard, under the
.< apt ion “A Danger Signal." (Hunts
out the danjrer that will follow unb-ss
the Australian ballot law is strictly en
forced. We quote The Standard as
follows; .
“The [impose of the Australian bal-
ot is to safeguard elections, to
guarantee to the vote! the ritfM
that is his to exercise his ballot ac-
<•< rdintr to his own wi-hes, and to
< iiminate from poliiny [daces the
'»utsid(‘ influences which formerly
played so la rye a part in the ohj.
*.rne eleitjo’ , Jhine' are .specific
us reirardiny fhi- I'mdiK't of ele'-
‘ on under, (lie Au~fra’in;i lialio*.
.Vh.le the !< ult ef the primary
may not have Lorn materially
ihanyed thereby, unfor'utiijtoly thes<'
rules and reyulations were yrossly
t.hsn yarded at the yolls heic in Aiken
Tuesday. The laxity permitted is a
lanyerous thiny. and if it -ha'lM’te'al-
jowed to continue, we miyht as well
yo back to the old system, which, a-
a matter of fact, was even fairer,
sinee then the abuses could b<*'prac
ticed by all and not only by a privi-
leyed few. There were yros s viola
tions of the rules here Tuesday, speci
fic instances of which can be mention-
«sl if anyone wants them recounted.
Principles are biyyer than men.
The riyht i« the paramount issue. It
s easy enouyh to declare paKizan-
shi|> for a particular candidate. !t
din's not require much couraye It is
like bettiny at the race track—on the
black horse or on the bay mare. But
if we are yoiny to permit our par-
ti/anshir* to ovehwhelm us to the
extent that we are williny to disre
gard the riyht, and if we are yoiny to
allow the election laws to he trampled
under our feet merely for the sake of
yettiny as many votes as possible f nr
our favorite candidates, it will not i>e
lony before the primary, the sanctity
of which mmt he upheld if white su
premacy is to continue, will be dis
credited as unworthy of confidence?.
We can not corrupt it and continue to
depend upon it.” >
The writer saw violations of the
law at the Barnwell preuinet and
while they were minor ones, even they
should not (,>e permitted. We know
that it is hard to enforce the law
strictly to tho letter, ht t-Fus - should
be dom* as tar as possible. If yve
condone minor irreyularities, we wid
-eon bo winkiny at more important
ones and the purpose’, of, the-Austral-
bin ballot will be defeated. A- The-
Standard riyhtly says. “Principled are
biyyer than men." and, “Riyht 1s"The
|>aram<runt issue." The Australian
ballot law provides a fair and just
method of reyisteriny the choice of
the pimple, with a minimum possi
bility <.f fraud.
The, People calls on the manayer^
<>f election in Barnwell County to see
that the law is strictly enforced next
Tuesday. In no other way can wo
hope to keep the priman clean.
practicaJly no difference betwe<*n the
Catholic and Episcopal Churches.
Now, the editor of The People is
a Mason, a Kniyht Tern pier and a
Shriner and is also a member of the
~ 1
Episcopal Church. So is Mr. Byrne-.
We know of no Catholic who can claim
membership in the above order.-.
And when a person says that there is
“practically no difference” between
the Catholic ami Episcopal Churches,
he makes a misstatement that reflects
yross iynorance, to say the least,
Webster's International Dic
tionary says that episcopalisjn is
“the theory that in church yovern-
ment supreme authority resides in a
IhmIv of bishops, and NOT IN ANY
INDIVIDUAL, SUCH AS THE POPE.
This theory was rejected by the
Roman Catholic Church at the Vati
can Council (1869-18700” This at
tempt to inject the reiiyious issue
into the Senatorial campaiyn should
prove a boomerany, especially when
based on such yross misstatements,
and will he resented by all members
of the Protestant Episcopal Church
in South Carolina. •
The People thanks the executive
committeemen and manayers at the
various precincts in the (county for
their splendid cooperation in sendiny
us returns the piyht of the fir-t pri
mary election and we request that
they nw>|w*rate with us ayain next

Confederate Veteran Dies,.
On the afternoon of August .12th,
the Death Angel visited the home of
Mr. Eddie Morris and took away his
beloved father, Mr. William Ransom
Morris. He had been ill only a short
time, his death lieiny caused by pneu
monia.
It was in the “Oak'Grove” section of
Barnwell County that Mr. Morris was
reared and resided until hw death.
While quite Q^youny man, he an
swered the call of his State, donned
the “dray” and followed the flay of
the Southern States until the end of
the “Confederate War.” He was a
yallant soldier v a devout Christian, an
affectionate father and a true neiyh-
bor.
He was seventy-nine years*" of aye
and is -urvived by three sons, E<klie
Morris, of Barnwell, John A. and W.
Anyua Morris, of Olar, iresides a
number of yrand-children and friends
who mourn his death.
