To the Editor Of The Advertiser: ? There seems to he a fear on the part of some persons that an effort will be made to require the same qualifica tions to vote In the Democratic prim ary as in the general election, as shown by Judge Thompson's resolu t ion. It seems to me that our people ought to be taught to have respect for law and order, Every wrote man In South Carolina ought to know that our elec tion laws were made to insure white supremacy and especially to protect the interests of the white people of our State. Any white man who is not patriotic enough to qualify himself as an elect or so as to be able to do his duty as a citizen. In my opinion, ought to he dis franchised.. To allow such a person to vote In the party election when he is not qual ified to vote in the State and Federal election on account of his own care lessness to conform to the laws of the State is to encourage lawlessness and disrespect for lawful authority. I know persons who have failed to qualify as electors and say they do not care to vote in the general elec tion; they care only to vote In the primary. I say such a person is not a patriotic citizen, and if our State election was In any danger he could not help at all. I say require the same qualification In the Democratic prim ary as in the general election/ This may not he popular but it Is right and I believe would be best for the State of South Carolina. W. T.
